[Yes ndazvinzwa mom. I was a little busy whole day.] [Usarenge kuuya Loe. You know I'm your mother and we need to talk. Today chaiyo...] It was a quick chat and after that uyu Maliq saw me sigh and he asked. "Everything okay?" "Yeah yeah. Just mom vangu ava vakubva vaita kunge kwafiwa vachindi deedza," l said as l typed the last text of that conversation. "You know you need to go and see her wonzwa kuti vada kukutii," he said tave kutosvika kubase. "Yeah. Rega ndinonzwa. Otherwise nyaya yacho haingambopero." Takasvika ndokubva andipa mota yekudzokera nayo. Ndakasvika pamba nyaya dzichingori about me. Ndichipinda mumba mom ndoo vakabva vandipa hug and my dad and uncle vakangondi tarisa. "Maswera sei dad?" Ndakadaro paye and he mumbled the greeting back and then l greeted uncle tool. At least uncle replied audibly. "Urikugarepi Loe?" My mom asked. "Kumba kwamaiguru vake iye Maliq," l lied and kana usina kuzvijaira zvekunyepa hana inotomborova. It even got worse uncle pavakabva vati, "Maiguru? Father's side? Or mother's side?" "Haa Father's side," ndakadaro paye ndichiwedzera spice panhemha dzangu. "Ndekupi ikoko? Vanogarepi?" He kept asking and somehow pfungwa dzangu dzakatanga kufunga like ndanga ndato drug dealer ipapo. I felt like if l kept answering his questions l was gonna end up telling him too much apa agara aive mupurisa hake. He had previously shown some interests and suspicions on Maliq. "Hmm veduwee. I don't want to talk about vanhu ini. Can we talk about inini? Mhamha you know you even texted to make sure ndauya." "Ehe l did. Ndini mai vako ndine kodzero yekuziva pauri. Uye kuti wakachengeteka here. Urikubatwa zvakanaka here ikoko?" "Yes varikundi bata zvakanaka mhamha," ndakadaro and she looked at me for a second and then she was like, "Hezvo, zvowotoita seusingachadi kudzoka kuno?" "What do you mean mom? I didn't leave pano by choice kaini. Handiti makati ndibve while you guys settled things?" "Togadziriseiko iye Maliq wako wembanje uyu achiita kunge anopenga muno isu tichiita seriously conversation? Togadzirei? Dzoka kumba ugare pano. Wangu mwana ndoona zvekuita naye ari pano paground," my dad bursted out from his corner. Inini zvimwe zvese izvi zvekukwidzirwa voice ndanga ndazvi jaira. But l had gotten stuck on the part yakanzi Maliq kutaura zvekupenga what what. I got curious. "Hanzichii?" "Kana uchiti hanzii urikutii? Huh?" My dad said attacking me again. "I mean atichii? Pamagara pasi naye pacho ati chii?" I asked again and they dodged the question again. Even iye Maliq when he told me the story he had mumbled through that part. "Ndakakuvhunza kuti Maliq aitora sei nyaya yenhumbu iyi paya what what. You remember?" My mom said. "Yeah l remember." "I don't remember kuti wakandipa mhinduro yekutii ini_" "Well he's trying. He's been there for me ever since first day and even though ndisiri kumba kwedu l haven't felt out of place for once," ndakapindura and my dad sighed. "So if he cares for you so much why can't he do things right for once? I was asking kuti arikufungei and the idiot started telling me zvekuti arikuda kuroora. Imagine_" my dad said and they all laughed as they found it silly. Ndakabva ndasticker paye adding it all up. When Maliq told me the story he hadn't included the part he told them that. "You mean, as in. As in iye Maliq ndiye ati ada kuroora?" I had to confir and my dad was like, "Imagine? Mheno akamuudza kuti munhu anongo roorwa zvechihwai ndiani", my dad said shaking his head still finding it stupid. "Mari chaiyo yekuzvi chengeta iye haana otaura zvekuroora. Kusarohwa uko." I was quiet for a while ndokuzotaura. "So mamutii?" "Ndomutii panyaya yei? Obviously I'm not playing kids games with my daughter. Handichadi mwana anogara musango ini. Kuuya kwawatoita ikoku hauchadzokeri. Zvekuti mwana wazo decider kuchengeta or kudii, tichaita zvese under my roof ndiine mwana wangu pano. Haungatadze kuenderera mberi nefuture yako cause of this whole drama. Ndingato chengeta iwe nemwana wacho if that's what it takes to snatch you away from mupfanha uya. So yeah, l forgive you my daughter. Zvasara tichataura as a family," my dad said boldly prolly sounding so proud of himself and my mom quickly knelt on the mat infront of dad ndokutanga kuombera. "Maita basa Mhofu. Maita shuwa iii ndinotenda nekunzwisisa kwenyu kuti mamistakes anoitika. Iii ndafara," she said uku dad vangu vave kufeeler kunge king vakagara pasofa ravo vakatarisa divi. "Loe ko hausi kutenda wani baba vako? Asi hauna kunzwa kuti you are now allowed to come back pamba? Woenderera mberi nechikoro?" Honestly l was still stuck in my head processing kadrama kavo kavaindiitira aka pamberi pangu. "Thank you very much dad. I'm sorry for everything put you through and I'm very grateful for the chance. Asi ndaane chikumbiro." I said and all eyes came to me instantly. "Wakudei zve nhai muzukuru?" Uncle asked and even my dad gave me the eye. "Kana ati arikuda kuroora. That's the only topic I'm interested in. Please mupei date racho." Makaita runyararo mumba imomo maziso ese akanditarisa until my dad was then like, "Mazviona zvandambo taura zviya mai Loe? Mazviona?" And in a few seconds both my mom and my uncle were already trying to calm my dad down. "Lorraine unopenga here iwe?" This was my mom to me with a very angry face uku vachipuruzira murume wavo ange oda kuboiller right infront of our eyes. "Noo handipenge mhamha. But mese muri 3 you mean to tell me kuti someone actually tried to correct his mistake by marrying me and your closest choice yamaona inoita was kuti zviri nani ndiite mvana yenyu pano?" Dad vangu vakatozoita zvekubatwa paye vongo puruzirwa uku mai vangu vachi detembera ini ndakamira kudoor. "Pakadai moti ndibatsire zvakadai? Kana school fees yacho handichadi kubhadhara ini. Munhu wepi asinga tende? Huh? After all I've done to just forget this and take her back like my own daughter she still has the audacity to question my judgement?" "I'm not questioning your judgement dad but_" "But kudii? But kudii? I'm rescuing you from this world but all you want is to dive right back in? Huh????" "Mwanangu. I think baba vako zvavari kuzama kutaura ndezvekuti just because waita mistake doesn't mean you have to be with the wrong person for the rest of your life. You can always find someone else anotouya achida iwe nemwana wako." "Ndiri kuda iyeye_" Kuti nditi ndakazvi taurirei or zvakabuda sei l don't know but ndakazozvi realiser mumba matoti ziii vanhu vaine zviso zvakavhunduka. Turns out l had said that out loud and now dad vangu vanga voita kaku bvundirira nehasha. "Wati chiii?????" My dad asked ndokubva vasimuka ini ndokumira kudoor, ready to run. But it was too late now up back down from what l had said so l stood my ground. "I know men will come. Vane mari or vanondida nemwana wangu sezvamataura. Asi zviri Zvaizvezvi, Maliq ndiye andiri kuda. And kana ari willing kuroora or kuunganidza yaanayo, please mupei date because its either I'm getting married, or ndirikungoenda for free." Ndakamboziva kuti baba vangu vane simba rakawanda kudaro? Makaita hovhiyo uku mai vachi deedzera kuti tiza. Honestly ndanditori kudoor and l could have run and all but l realised kuti l was going back to square one all over again. Skiri rekuti ndinotiza then they call me again the next day. So l didn't run. I actually walked to him and he escaped grip ndokubva ndabatwa ruoko kuti ndisatize rimwe ruoko rwuri ready kundi veza mbama. "Wati chii?" "Maliq ndomuda dad. I'm carrying his baby and kana ati arikuda kundiroora, l don't see any reason why you should deny him ini. After all he's the only guy who is not gonna call me mvana. So mungandirova henyu asi ndoo zviri pamoyo wangu. Ndichibva pano ndakuenda. I hope muchasara muchiita reconsider," l said and while he was still in shock yekuti zvivindi zvabvepi ndakabva ndabvisa pandanga ndakabatwa and l walked out. He stood there frozen vachiita kunge he couldn't believe his eyes. Mom vangu vakatevera panze and then she saw the car yandanga ndauya nayo and she was like, "Ndeimwe futi here iyi? Ndeyani?" She asked cause ndandauya neBMW this time. I got in, didn't reply. Ndandakuto chema ini meno chaochemwa. All l did was give my mom some blackmail. "If you want whats best for me mama, please give him a chance. Better zvirambe after l give it a shot. Nekuti l do love him," l said and then drove off. *NARRATION* "Wakafamba bhoo here?" Santo said to Naledi. "Yeah. Koiwewe. Ndakazokusiyai muchiita closing up and stuff," "Yeah l did. Ndakazotsvaga transport yatoo late chaiyo," Santo said finishing up stacking up stock. "Wait, why didn't you tell me kuti you didn't have a car? Like l could have driven you home instead yekuita zvema lift late hour riye?" Naledi said. "Well, mota nditonayo but since ndisati ndakugona kui driver l been going home naMaliq or the guys," Santo said and Naledi was like, "Whaaaat? So you bought a car usingagone kudriver? Or ukungondi nyeperawo hako?" Naledi said and Santo akabva aseka lightly. "Iyo iripanze iyo. Why would l lie to you hangu. Soon I'm starting the lessons hangu so sazvitye." "Don't worry ndokudzidzisa inini," Naledi said and Santo laughed. "Haha ndozoku impresser sei neFast and Furious driving yangu kana ndakugona, iwe uriwe wandidzidzisa," She laughed. Maliq walked in, "Santo wapa Taflo maupdates acho here? Usadhibhe kah kuti tromz tine dhiri riye?" "Obvious kah baba haa kuya handisare zve. Haa Taflo haanetse. Ndomupa update yema figures but zvagara he can handle this stuff." "Hey Naledi?" "Muricy?" She greeted Maliq. "I'm good. You said you have some information for me," he said achigara pasi. "Owe yes yes. Scatter auya kumba and l heard them talking about the chief police officer what what and a cover up. But somehow your name came up. You gat any idea about that?" "Hmmm not sure. Why?" "I don't know. I just got worried a little because he also then called me to ask if l know where Lorraine is gonna be tomorrow. I'm worried that he might try something," she said. "Okay thanks." "What do you think he's planning?" She asked. "I don't know but for tomorrow I'm not worried. And tomorrow wacho can you stay there so you can give me real time updates of what be happening? I can't take risks." "Okay then. That is ndikasabuda navo mangwana acho. Ndambonzwa vachiti he's going out of town with me." *LORRAINE* Nyaya yedrama ranga raitika handina kumuudza yese. Zvaitonyadzisa ndaitozoita sendiri kurwira kuroorwa naye too much. That day Santo haana kuenda kumba. Takaenda naye kumba achida kuratidzwa kwatanga takugara and we passed through town tichitenga zvimwe zvinhu, hembe dzekuti ndizo pfekawo and stuff since ndandisati ndane hembe. Vese vakazongo tenga hembe nekuti even Santo naMaliq vacho vanga vasina kuuya nehembe kunew house. Turns out l had done a really good job at decorating and filling up the house nekuti even Santo couldn't stop commenting. It was a fun night in general tichitaura nyaya and for a sec Maliq stopped stressing about how tomorrow was gonna go. The next morning takamukira kubuda and by 7am tanga tatoo paroad. Excitement yangu yanga yakawanda until l remembered kuti l was going back to meet amwene pamwe naTezvara on the same day. Now l got nervous again. It was a fun road trip tichi chinjana kudriver and by around 10,11 tanga tasvika kumba kwamama vaMaliq. She was so happy to see me and l believed it hangu hameno kana vainyebedzera. Apa that day she was looking kinda good like zambia ne dhuku chii chii zvichi matcher nema tennis. At least mwana aichengeta mai. And l couldn't help but wonder kuti maybe if she looked that good for Maliq's dad reunion with his son, maybe she still liked him. Hameno. My mind. Apa this time ndanga ndatoo kuma plates, kutsvaira tsvaira chii chii tichitaura nyaya nana bamunini. Tanga takutodya kuma 12 patakazonzwa sound yemota ichitinhira ichisvika and mom vaMaliq was like, "I think vasvika. Garai muno," she said ndokubuda panze ndokuno gashira vaenzi. I had to hold Maliq's hand because he looked kinda nervous. He kept clinching his jaws. I smiled at him, "Its gonna be okay this is the moment," l said ndokubva Santo aisa ruoko pashoulder raMaliq. Vanhu vakataura a few minutes panze ndokubva tazonzwa vakuuya. Mom vaMaliq came first, "Pindai pindai", she said and right behind her ndiye dhumha dhumha naNaledi. Ndakaita kunge ndiri kufananidzira ndokutarisa Maliq naSanto and they looked as confused as l was. "Naledi??" "Lorraine?" Tichangopedza kudaro to each other, Machete walked in ndokubva vadhumhana maziso naMaliq naSanto and they all froze. Santo akazongoti, "The fuck?" ndokuvhomora pfuti mujacket while Machete pulled his own too. *END OF CHAPTER 52💎* @kingvilla
