It was Sunday the following day and I was suppose to go to church but here am I lying to bed with pyjamas and someone knocked on my door and it was dad on suits.

“Why are you not ready for church”.

“Dad I’m not feeling well so I’m not going to church”.

“What is wrong my child” he was so worried.

“I have stomachache dad I think it’s something I ate don’t worry I’ll take medicine and when you come back from church I will be better”.It was the first time I ever lied to him so I felt guilty but inside I told myself I’m not going to church I want to be alone because I also lied to Yolie.

“Okay baby see you after church. I love you”.

“I love you too”.

The moment he went out of my room I switched my phone off because I also said to Thabang I’m going to church. I really wanted time a lone so that I can think about this thing of mine with Thabang before telling Yolie.So I went down stairs and made myself cornflakes and asked aunt Boniswa to prepare food for me and dad because we always used to chilled after church accompanied by Yolie.Yolie was like a family member because every occasion at my house was always there.I went to my room again and had deep thoughts.

“Is really Thabang the person I was looking for?The feeling I’m feeling for Thabang is the same feeling I used to feel for my ex’s but it’s little bit different.Thabang are you here to fool me with love like others because I admit everyone’s weak point is love and nothing we can do about it.What if I get hurt again because I can’t afford to go to that road again and it took me forever to find it’s exit.If loving you Thabang is going to hurt me then I’m willing to go to that road again but what I know I cannot miss this chance”.

Aunt Boniswa knocked on the door “Mam food is ready and your dad is already here”.When I look at time it was 14:30 and I was still on pyjamas.Before I went downstairs I went to take a bath and went downstairs.When I switched on my phone I found Thabang’s 15 missed calls.”I’ll get to him later because my father doesn’t want phones while eating”.While we were eating Yolie came and sat with us.”I thought I’m going to see you Monday as I said”.”Your father told me about your stomachache,how’s it?”.”Better friend,how was church?”.”Friend I have something to tell you,sorry Mr Themba it’s girls stuff so we’re going to eat on Thandiwe’s room.My dad laughed and we went to my room.

“Friend I met this handsome dude at church and I think he’s the one”.”Everyone is always the one to you remember?”.She laughed and on my mind I was thinking about Thabang.

“Yolie I have something to tell you my friend”.

“What is it friend?”.

“I’m dating Thabang”.

“I knew it!I knew it!”.

“Please promise you won’t tell dad because you know what happened the last time I told dad about my boyfriend”.

“I promise friend and I’m happy for you”. What I loved about Yolie she always supports me and never judged me that is why it is hard to keep something from her.She decided to stay for night so that we can call Thabang together and do video calls with him.
