Ndo mbo di thoma u mukhisa. Dammit i was stressed and scared that Thembu wanga ndihone o ntsia. As much as ndovha ndi tshi khou muvhenga i also wanted him to love me again, to forget the other girl, i wanted to be the only one he wanted again. I.....I.....I wanted to give him what drove him into cheating, i wanted to make love to him, maybe he was gonna stop. I was desperate, hurt and scared.

Me:”completely”

Bee:”you wont breathe a word to any soul?”

Me:”I promise” o vha o rembuluwa o ntsedza, nne ndo takuwa ndaya tsini nae nda panga zwanda zwikwamani zwa vhurukhu, o mbo di dovha a rembuluwa a sedza nnda

Bee:”he used to rape me…..i have lost count as to how many times he did it” damn this was some deep stuff

Bee:“do you know what was so f**** up about this whole thing? My mom knew and she didn’t do anything, he used to beat her too but the least she could have done was left him or report him to the police station or something but she didn’t because she said we needed him financially” I was horrified, I was looking at this girl who was now a gangster boss and I couldn’t imagine the trauma and the emotional scars she had suffered

Bee:“there was a time I couldn’t even concentrate at school anymore because all I thought about was him and my so called mom. At 11 I made the bravest decision because I was tired and I couldn’t take it anymore so I ran away from home, I didn’t take anything with and I didn’t even know where I was going, I just wanted to leave that house…..for few months I stayed at a friend’s house. She was my age and was only staying with her siblings…..and then….and then I met some guy who introduced me to this life”

Me:”you started selling drugs when you were 11?” o mbo di tenda nga thoho

Bee:”I had to make a living. At the age of 13 I was traded out by my boss. In the easiest language you can say he sold me…he sold me to a guy from Nigeria and for 5 years I was a sex slave plus a drug dealer in different countries, I have really travelled the world. I stayed in different countries and states, depending on where they wanted me” ok now I was seriously speechless. I looked at her with my mouth hanging, this was some scary stuff, tjoo I thought all these things only happen in movies. I never thought I could talk to someone who have really went through them

Me:”what happened then?”

Bee:”well, when I was in Brazil, I managed to escape and somehow I was a prostitute for few months because I needed to come back home and when I had enough money I booked a flight back to South Africa. I then met Svig through one of my friends I used to deal drugs with before they sold me. I was only 18 and damn Svig took me in and I worked with him since then. I am good at what i do and i don't have a heart, for me its all about my survival, thats why Svig likes working with me” ndovha ndi tshi khoupfa ndi khou shavha u vhudzisa uri zwazwino una minwaha mingana fhedzi ndovha ndi sure uri hathu swikisa 25 lini she didn’t look old at all

Me:”did you go see your mom after coming back to the country?”

Bee:”no, last time I saw her I was eleven, I hated her and her husband with a passion and when I heard that she passed away I didn’t care or maybe I should say I didn’t wanna care, but somehow I managed to feel the pain, somehow I found myself crying for her”

Me:”but there is nothing wrong with that”

Bee:’there is everything wrong with crying over a woman who let her child raped repeatedly from the age of 9, I had to endure all that pain of being a sex slave and a dealer because of her. I had to run away from home. Do you have any idea how different my life could have been if she cared about me? If she protected me? But look at me now….i am just a human being with nothing but an empty evil heart” she looked at me mutodzi u tshi khou rotha, o mbo di u phumula nga tshanda

Bee:”somehow I wanted her to pay for what she did to me, for all the pain i felt but….when….i heard that she was dead….i felt even more empty, I felt guilty and I felt even more inhuman, and for the first time in so many years I felt like I needed her” I don’t know but this was all just too much, it was way too much, ndo di wana ndi tshi vhonga ndi sa lila. Nia divha life aingo vhuya ya luga na luthihi ngoho ehh

Bee:”I don’t know what to do, I have never cried somuch in years, infact I don’t even cry anymore but this made me lose it”

Me:”I am so sorry”

Bee:”it ain’t your fault”

Me:”so why do you wanna kill your dad? Do you wanna pay revenge?”

Bee:”he is the one who killed her” o mbo di dzula fhasi a imisa magona a dzumba tshifhatuwo tshawe a lila nga ndila I vhaisaho na mbilu. This was too messed up. I honestly thought my childhood was messed up but I just realised now that actually I had a good childhood I mean some kids had it tough hey

Me:”wooow this is…”

Bee:”I know its insane.....i wish i was there for her, to protect her from him, she was as much a victim as i was and all these years i left her with him.....i....i only realise that now”

Me:"i am so sorry Bonita i really am, but you can't blame yourself, you did what seemed right at the time, plus you were only a child when you left home and i don't blame you for being so angry"

Bee:"i am at a point where i don't know how i will move on from all this, if i will ever forgive myself"

Me:"you need to forgive yourself Bee, its not your fault and maybe you should go visit her grave"

Bee:"i don't know about that hey" o mbo di rembuluwa a ya a dzula kha sofa

Me:"i also hated my dad for a while but forgiving him did something in me"

Bee:"i will see about that, thanks hey"

Me"pleasure"

Bee:"and don't breathe a word about this, not even to X or your wife"

Me:"i won't, how did you know i have a wife?"

Bee:"you have a ring"

Me:"oww, do you still want your father dead? I think if you get him killed you will feel double th pain" she kept quiet for a while

Bee:"i think i need some coffee while i think about that" o mbo di takuwa a yela kitchen na nne ndo mbo di tevhela

Bee:"need a cup of coffee?"

Me:"no thanks" o vhilisa madi ra ima kitchen ro gogodela tafula

Bee:"i never had a friend you know, like sharing my history with anyone, i've never had anyone close to me"

Me:"boyfriend?"

Bee:"i don't think i still want a male being on top of me ever again so nope, i have never dated anyone, i have only slept with man for money and it ended there, now that i have enough money, i am not up for any sexing"

Me:"i understand where you are coming from"

Bee:"i am trusting you with all this V Boy, i don't ever wanna hear people whispering about me ok?"

Me:"like i said, i am just being a friend and i wont breath a word" o mbo di fara cup yawe ya coffee ra humela sitting room ra dzula fhasi

Bee:"maybe i should not kill him neh?"

Me:"yeah don't, you don't need your dad's blood on your hands"

Bee:"you are right, i need to call the whole operation off and thanks for everything, i am feeling a bit light"

Me:"pleasure" o mbo di bvisa founu yawe a founela mathannga othe ari avha nambe vha di yele hayani, nne ndovha ndisina goloi so ndo founela Xolani uri ade a nndzhie henefha

Me:"Xolani will come pick me up in a few but he was out of George already so he might take very long"

Bee:"and i get to spend some time with my first friend" she was smiling

Me:"halleluyah Barbie is smiling"

Bee:"who is smiling?"

Me:"uhm Bonita" o mbo di imisa tsie a ntsedza

Bee:"is that what you guys call me?"

Me:"don't turn into Bonita the boss please"

Bee:"i really want to be angry at you right now but damn it feels good to have a friend so i don't wanna ruin the moment"

Me:"ahhhh thank you i was holding my breath" she laughed a bit. Ho mbo divha na bele ye ya lila

Bee:"that must be X"

Me:"oww yeah, let me get going" ndo mbo di takuwa nda yela vothini, Barbie ovha o ntsala nga murahu

X:"i thought that's why she cancelled everything, so you were driving around with her?"

Me:"yeah" lwau tou thoma ndopfa uri kha ndi dzumbe tshiphiri hetshi ndi si vhudze na Xolani zwawe.

X:"eish so how was it driving around with Bee?"

Me:"nerve wrecking bro, we were not even chatting, i don't even understand why she wanted me to come with her"

X:"maybe she thought we were not gonna do the job when we were together"

Me:"yeah maybe"

X:"i seriously wanna rest its been a long day, i wonder what happened to Sibu?"

Me:'eish that's another story"
