I don’t know when I fell asleep but I know that I was on top of Senzo’s chest but when I woke up it was already 6:45 a.m and he was gone.

But he had left a small piece of paper on the bedside table written You look beautiful when you are sleeping, Sorry I had to leave so early, duty calls. I’ll check up on you later. And besides the letter is a muffin and a cup of coffee.

I can’t help but smile as my heart warms up from what he had just done for me. I take the cup of coffee, it is still a bit hot meaning that he left not so long ago.

If he continues like this then I sure will be falling deeper for him.

I take a bite from the muffin and blush as I think about the sex making we did yesterday, I had wondered how he was and he was just beyond exception when he came on that department.

My phone rang, I almost spit out my coffee when I see a caller ID written Senzo with a pic off his half naked body.

I answer, “Did I wake you?” He ask, I shake my head as if he can see me “I was already up.”

“Do you like my pic that I saved?” I can almost feel the smirk on his face. “It’s rather inappropriate don’t you think.”

“No, it’s something you’ll remember me with.”

“What about you.”

“Don’t worry, I also took a pic of you while you were sleeping.” before I know it my phone pings with a whatsapp message only to find out that he really did take a picture of me with my braids on my face, my mouth slightly open and my hand just above my head.

“You better delete it.” I say with a bit of embarrassment.

“It’s my favorite, it’s not going anywhere.” He said.

I roll my eyes but with a full blown smile on face.

“I have to go.” He says. We both say our goodbyes and I am practically on my cloud nine.

I quickly dial Sindie’s number in no time we are both laughing as she asks about Senzo’s manhood and if he is good and a whole lot of other questions.

I switched on a TV just as I finished up cleaning and it is the news

Breaking news today morning at Olifantfonteins road there was a cash transit car that was shot down, the driver is in a critical condition two of the other passengers have died on the scene from the gunshot wounds that they recieved.

The money was taken, and the suspect are long gone. The police arrived at the scene 15 minutes late.

As the news shift to another story I switched off the tv, I was shaking.

This wa it, this is what I had gotten myself into. My heart is pounding as I still can’t believe what I just heard. But he warned me didn’t he? Bur to be fair I didn’t think that he would put himself in harms way so quick.

I am tempted to call him, to ask if he is okay or if he is even safe but I don’t. No I’ll let him call me, if he is safe I’ll know.

I pace the floor as I wait for a phone call just to hear his voice is all that I want.

After a whole hour my phone rings, I quickly run to it and press the green button.

“Are you okay?” I ask in a frantic voice, I have not known this man for a while but here I was worried sick about him.

I hear him smile “It’s nice to know that you worry about me.” I roll my eyes as I figure that he is okay and he is just being sarcastic.
