The lady

I am mad, no infact I am livid. Who does that guy think he is? There is nothing I hate more than a guy who constantly pushes himself towards a girl. Did he really think I would be smiling when he paid my groceries ugh I wanted to scream.

I weezed through the traffic, I parked outside my flat and took a deep breath no I won’t let myself think about him anymore.

“Hey baby.” Langa said kissing me on the lips and helped me with my groceries. I smiled and soon that guy was now a distant memory, Langa and I had been dating for 5 years now and maybe I hoped a little too much that he would marry me.

We have talked about marriage and that was 2 years ago and the conversation didn’t go as I had planned.

“I love you my honey bunch but why must we complicate our relationship with marriage.” that’s what he said and I just nodded because maybe he was right.

My mother made it clear that cohabitation was not right, because I would be giving him free things, that he should be expecting when we get married and now he won’t see the need to get married to me because what is the point when he is getting all of that just like that without even sweating for it.

I thought that my mother was wrong, but here we are now. We have been living together for 4 years and still he won’t touch the marriage conversation.

But I still hope, that maybe someday he will ask, and I will be waiting for that day.

“How was the shopping?”

And the picture of that stupid guy came into mind I shrugged, “Same as usual.” I uttered.

But that was a lie, that guy played on my mind. I was impressed too with what he did even though he still made me mad.

I kept myself busy as I slowly took out groceries from the plastics and I wondered if he does all of this to every girl? My stomach did a little back flip at the thought making me slightly nauseous.
