Chapter 6 - Dilemma

"If you be the cash, I'll be the rubber band

You'll be the match and will be the fuse, ooohh!" I belt out as I'm hanging the laundry on the washing line. Whatever Miguel was feeling when he wrote *Sure Thing* described exactly how i felt that day. I vowed that i would never fall for a n^gga after the whole Thendo situation but as the venda saying goes ' mbhilo ndi lesilo, i kho hangwa nga mbila' simply meaning that one's heart is foolish for it forgets quickly. As I'm humming loudly i get a phone notification and yes, your girl finally got a cellphone [inside chuckle]. It's nothing fancy but it'll have to do until I'm old enough to get myself an upgrade. I open the notifications panel and find a message from Rhulani that read: hey mufunwa wanga, i have an early class tomorrow so i won't be able to walk to school with you, stay beautiful>>>. Okay we haven't made anything official but he's been calling me "mufunwa" or " Mme Luvhengo" for the past three weeks so i guess we kinda dating now. I know I'm letting the City girls down but i just couldn't resist. As I was in deep contemplation someone taps me gently on the shoulders and i turn to look back. I couldn't believe what my eyes were showing to me. There he was...standing tall and looking as pathetic as ever. He looks like a kid who got caught with his hand in the cookie jar. Before he could open his mouth to talk i had already picked up the laundry basket and heading back to the house. "Ronewa stop, i can explain." Thendo says. Does he really think I'm going to believe whatever crap he has to say? Typical rich air head [slap my head]. " You disappeared for weeks and didn't bother to tell me anything, and on top of that you have the audacity to show up here and expect to pick up where we left off?! Not only are you disrespectful but you're hella stupid as well" i say as i shove him out of the way. When it rains it pours, as i was making my way to the house i see my stepmother waiting for me at the door and it seems like she heard everything....
