“wait here I’m coming ” I said as i was entering in the gates of the spaza shop.I went inside and looked around to see if there was anything else special.The was nothing other than the chocolate I was going to buy for her . I bought and hid it on my back .

“Where is the thing you promised to buy for me?” She asked. “There was nothing special enough in that small spaza shop” I replied.”You should have bought me something , anything it’s going to be special to me and I’ll appreciate it, go in now ” she pushed me . “Ohky wait wait!” I said. “What? It seems like you’ve bought some for me. What are you hiding behind you?” She asked

“Taa-daa! I’ve bought this chocolate for you” i said giving it to her. ” Thank you so much ” she hugged me. My heart melted within a second. I pulled her closer and hugged her tight but she broke it.”Are you dating?” I asked. “Yea.. No” she sighed”Actually I’m still inlove with that person. But he died in a car accident last year . I miss him everyday Thando. It’s hard to accept that I can’t see him again. He was different from other guys, you remind me of him” what does she meant I asked myself do I look like her late boyfriend?.”we used chill in a peaceful place under the trees.He used to take me to spaza shop ,buy me a chocolate ,sing for me & write poems for me.” I saw sadness lingering on the edges of her eyelids. I didn’t know what to do nor say. I hugged her ” it’s going to be okay” I said ,hoping that will make her feel better. We hugged for more than 30 minutes then she fell asleep on my arms.
