Melokuhle



When I woke up the first person I saw was Melusi, he was standing by the window. He quickly turned and looked at me with his face full of deep regret “Are you okay?”

I nodded “Yeah, it’s a little sore but i’m okay.” He nodded as relief washed away whatever he was feeling and turned to the doctor “Is she free to go?”

“Yes, she’s out of danger, I don’t see any reason for me to keep her here.”

When the doctor walked Melusi placed his hands deep in his pockets and waited for me to get up from the bed “I didn’t know or I wouldn’t have sprinkled some nuts.”

“It’s okay, I’m okay now.”

He nodded as we walked out of the hospital, every female head turned to look at him and I could see why and not even had he looked like he saw them.

As I looked around the hospital, I knew that if I wanted to make a run for it right now I could do it, but for some reason I didn’t, I couldn’t bring myself to run to the opposite direction.

Instead I followed him to the car and watched him from the corner of my eye as he drove us back.

“I’m going to bed I said to him.” The minute we walked inside. I was exhausted and the day hasn’t even started, the clock on the wall read 2:30.

I walked into my designated room as soon as my head hit the pillow I was already fast asleep.
