Keneilwe’s side 

Awwwww! She’s asking me to be her girl! My heart flutters at her words.

But what about her girlfriends? I can’t share her.

“If you have to have me, then I must be your only one. I want you too”

“Then be mine. You won’t even feel the void.” She insists.

“That’s not true and you know it.” I shrug 

****

I’m home alone, and I’m ashamed to say, I came back with Zekhethelo.

I watch her, as she is staring at the ceiling. She’s a good kisser, she’s even greater in bed! She’s everything I ever wanted. I can’t remember when I came six times back to back.

I also can’t believe that I let her bed me, without any assurance regarding her health. She has many girlfriends. I’ve been so careless.

“What are you thinking about?” I ask her

“Why can’t we just be together?” She asks back

I shrug and push the duvet back. I start dressing. She stands up too and puts on her clothes.

As I watch her walk out, I know this is the last time I’ll ever see her.

It’s all over, I won’t be her 4th option.
