“Eat this.” Zama pushes a box of chocolate cookies.
“I’m not hungry ” i say.She looks at me,im sure shes tired of babying me,i should deal with this heart break alone.
“You haven’t ate in two days,thats wrong,you’ll faint .” she says.I know but i just can’t swallow anything,I’m really really really heart broken.
“Fainting sounds like a plan.” I say.I seriously feel like I’m in hell,surely it feels like this.She looks at me with eyes full of pity,this is what i hate.
“I’m going back to work tomorrow ” i say,changing the subject.
“That’s great,but do you think you’re in a good state to be going back to work?” She asks.
“I’m heartbroken,not dead” i say,she decides to laugh it off.
I’m late,i was supposed to get out of the house 30 minutes earlier,but since i listened to heart break songs and cried all night last night i had no sleep at all.I grab my car keys and handbags then rush out of the house.The traffic is making my blood boil,I’m late can y’all drive faster?????!!!!!!!!I hoot at the car infront of me like why are you so slow??I spend an hour in my seat, i start crying. This is a mess.The car drives faster and crosses the road but the robot closes and i wait impatiently. I get a text message,i take my phone,it’s from an u saved number.
“I just wanna know that you’re good,I’m worried about you,its me,Sbusiso” my heart beats faster,my mind travels back to his room…a car hoots behind me,suddenly there’s a lot of hooting and i hear a loud bang and my car moves foward a little…shit.Everyone is hooting. I get out of the car to see the damage.
“Are you dumb?Are you deaf?” A male voice says and I’m not even paying attention,my car is a mess.Hes shouting at me the whole time suddenly i get pissed. I raise my eyes to look at him and our eyes meet,pastel brown eyes,coiled short hair and a little beard,he’s not that tall but tall enough.He goes silent amd our eyes lock for a minute.
“Are you good?” he asks.No my car is fucking damaged.
“Yes,uhm,I’m sorry,I’m really sorry I’ll pay its my fault” i say,the whole time I’m panicking.
“No it’s fine uhm…i just want to make sure that you’re fine,i don’t care about my car it doesin’t matter you…i mean your safety matters” he says and i give him an innocent smile.
“Thanks,I’m fine.” I say.The other cars start driving off.I don’t know what to do.I call my insurance company,they arrive within a minute.
It’s been two weeks since the car accident and I’ve been using uber.I get inside the house and i go straight to bed.I’m tired,i had a long day,and I’m finally getting over Sfiso.I wake up after 3 hours,its almost dinner time.I don’t know what to eat.Zama is happy im eating again. There’s a knock on the door.I go and open it,i get the shock of my life,i try to close it but he blocks it with his foot.
