Cindi had given In to the fate that she had created for herself.
She had nothing, only her matric certificate and had been dependent on Siya.
She couldn't do anything with her hands and wondered how she was going to survive.
She was used to spending money that isn't hers and with Luke being a mere policeman, she wondered what life has in store for them.
She looked at what used to be her home one more time before turning and getting into the taxi she had hired.
She only had one bag and a box with a few stuff she had bought with her parents' money.
She cried on the way to Luke's place. Her life as she knew it was over.
He helped her with her bag while she held the box.
She couldn't speak. She was just hurt. She didn't love Siya but she loved the kind of life he provided.
.
It's three days later and I have a doctor's appointment.
I'm not going to work because I've taken a day off.
I woke up early to bath and it's been thirty minutes of going through my wardrobe, looking for something to wear.
I end up wearing a black denim skirt that is over the knees with a black oversized shirt.
I put on some heels and even makeup. It's been a while since I pampered myself. I comb my hair, which is a big Afro that I've been taking care of.
I take my bag with my phone then go to the kitchen.
I greet Alexis who's jaw has dropped.
"Trust me, I know ", I say with a giggle and she rolls her eyes.
"You look beautiful "
"Thank you honey"
I actually feel beautiful.
"You never told me about your date, how it went"
Her blushing face tells me it went good.
I look at her as I wait.
"He's not such a bad guy but he's strict and intimidating. It was nice talking to him and hanging out. He was interested in knowing about me and it was easy for me to open up to him"
Her eyes are sparkling as she says this. She has beautiful brown eyes.
"You like him"
I say, eyeing her and she blushes.
"Oh please. I.. I'm not that girl"
"What girl? "
I'm interested in what she means.
"One who goes out with guys. I'm scared "
"What? You're a virgin? "
We've never really touched this topic.
"Yes and I'm not ashamed "
I chuckle.
"It's a good thing. I've only slept with Siya "
As if he hears me, my phone rings and it's him.
"I have to go"
I kiss her cheek then leave with my bag and phone.
He stares at me when I'm by his car like he's undressing me with his eyes.
That makes me shiver. I hate the effect he has on me.
He then clears his throat, thank God.
"You look beautiful ", he finally says
"But that skirt is too short " he adds and I roll my eyes.
"Can we just leave? "
He opens door for me and I get inside.
"Breakfast? "
"I already ate"
He puts his hand on my thigh as he starts his car. I look at him and he doesn't stare back.
I roll my eyes. If only he knew what his touch does to me.
Arriving at the doctor, it's a dark chocolate male who looks edible.
I'm actually drooling and Siya clears his throat.
"I'm.. Hi doc"
"Yaya, it's good seeing you "
I guess he already told him my name.
"It's Ayanda to you ", Siya commands and I chuckle. He's jealous.
He forces me to hold his hand and we follow the doctor.
If only he knew what I have in mind, lol
