•“Azange saybona,saybona intwenje.”

Shit,my head is heavy. I get my head up from the soft comfortable pillow and look at my surrounding. The room is very spacious and white . I'm on a huge king sized bed.Fuck! This isn't my room nor any of my friend's room . OMG am I dead?

“Good morning”, Qhawe walks in shirtless holding tray with his hands.

“Am I in heaven? Wait, are you God's right hand man and he sent you to kidnap me because I've been sinning?”, I'm starting to panic.

“What? No.” Qhawe laughs at me. He has an infectious laugh and I see a dimple. “ You're not in Heaven and I don't have wings nor a halo. I brought you breakfast and something for the hangover”

“What happened yesterday?” I ask Qhawe.

He gives me the tray. I see anger surfacing on his face. I'm in deep shit.

“You called me thinking I was Derrick and when I managed to track your location,the four of you were sleeping on the fucking pavement! Do you know that you could've gotten hurt Londiwe! I can't believe grown people were so irresponsible.” He shakes his head and walks towards the door. “ And drink those pills .”, He goes out.
What the hell just happened?

I finish the food and I drink the pills.  I see an ensuite bathroom and I go to wash my face. I look at my reflection in the mirror,damn Qhawe saw me like this? I look like I've been hit by a truck.
I wash my face and I see an unused still packaged toothbrush. I open it and brush my teeth. I then get into the shower and let the water hit my bare skin.
I had no choice but to use his body wash and moisturizer,now I smell like a man.

After I was done I walked down stairs,this house is so huge! I find my way to the kitchen and I go sit next to him on the kitchen island. He's now wearing a three piece navy suit with a black tie and a white shirt. He looks very handsome.

“Ngyaxolisa Ngqulunga” , I say to him. Now tell me why I'm apologising to this man and even calling him by his clan name.

He smiles.“ it's fine, you're forgiven and you smell like me”

I blush because he smells really good and now I have his scent all over me. “ Where are the others?” I ask him.

“They actually left before you woke up. I have to go to work now ,come .” He gives out his hand for me to take.

We're walking to his huge garage holding hands. I'm blushing like crazy and I have butterflies in my stomach, I feel like a love struck teenager.
He opens the garage and my mouth drops open.

“Which one” , he says grinning.

“So many cars.” I gawk at him. “ The red one,it's my favorites colour."

This man has five cars in here! And two outside of the garage.
He nods and leads me to the Red  model S Tesla car.

“Do you wanna drive her” He asks

“You bet your sweet ass I do”

I let go of his hand and run to the driver seat. He also gets in smiling like a retard. I hold the steering wheel admiring this beautiful beast that I'm about to drive.

“You like?” , He asks me and I not rapidly.

We drive off to my flat and I stop the car when we get there. He jumps off and comes to open my door ,like seriously now? I'm in the driver seat .

“Thank you” I say climbing off the car. 

“ I'll come pick you up tommorow, seven pm sharp .” He says and then we share a friendly hug. He drives off after he has seen that I'm inside the premises. I've picked that up about him.

“ Good morning dear brother.” I say to my brother who is still wearing pyjamas  busy stuffing his face with food.

“You look ... terrible ”, he says and i roll my eyes.

“Tell me something l don't know” I go sit next to him on the couch.

He goes back to eating his food while we watch an action movie,I don't know what it's called but there's Brad Pitt in it. I decide that I've had enough of seeing guns ,I go to my room and take off the dress I was wearing. I get into my pyjamas and I send a zoom call link my friends.

“Yho!” , that's the first thing Gcina says when the screen shows his face. “ we both look like shit.”
we laugh and the  others join in.

We chat about the events of the previous night , filling Stacy in about that guy who wanted to buy me a drink and she told us that the one she was sitting on his lap asked her out . She seemed excited when she was talking about him. I'm happy for her but as the good friend that I am ,I  told her to tell him that I will crush his bones should he break her heart . We continued talking and laughing at the fact that I was crying because I thought Qhawe has a wife and that he shouted at us like little kids for sleeping on the pavement.
