A love nest in Limpopo (5)

It's usually at this point where the issue of the condom would come up but there was no time and space for that as Maanda had lodged himself right inside Madifako and all her resistance crumbled.

Mr Mudau worked on Madifako's body until dawn. They both passed out in each other's arms and sleep was never this peaceful.
It was 11am when Madifako woke up, her head heavy and a little confused. Her eyes opened to a massive mascular back that screamed 'cuddle me.' As she wrapped herself around Maanda, Trevor popped up in thought and guilt gripped Madifako for the double standards she was practicing by being angry at Trevor for sleeping with 031 yet she is here with a man she just met last night.

Madifako suddenly wanted to leave the hotel room and be in her own space and wrap her head around all that is happening. She got up from the bed, headed for the bathroom and got in the shower with the hope of washing off the shame and guilt she was feeling. As she was unsuccessfully scrubbing it all off, Maanda joined her in the shower and as she looked at him, he didn't look as hot as he was last night. She tried hard to pull a smile but he noticed that something was not right, "What's wrong baby?" he asked.
"Ohhh Maanda, I am just overwhelmed, I usually don't do this and am feeling out of my element."
"It's normal love..." he said, as he waltzed out of the shower. 'It's normal?!' Did this man just say it's normal? That threw Madifako off and it left a bitter taste in her mouth. She was sure now that she wanted to leave. Madifako got out of the shower started getting dressed with Maanda doing the same in front of her. She was sitting on the bed as she was squeezing her foot in the stiletto when a wedding band fell out of Maanda's pocket...

Maanda was dumbfounded and couldn't even begin to explain this awkward moment. Madifako stood up looked into Maanda's eyes and said, "I guess this is normal love...thanks Maanda for nothing. You could have kept that ring on and I make my own decision as to whether I want to be here with you or not. Goodbye!"

A walk of shame never felt this hard but she took it in her stride, walked out of the hotel into her car drove off in tears yet again wondering why life had to be so harsh?
As she made a turn into her complex Trevor was parked outside her house with a bouquet of roses in hand, dressed like a million bucks and handsome as ever...Madifako was never ready to face Trevor after yesterday especially looking like the night before. It was evident that she didn't sleep at home and with the trauma that Maanda put her through earlier it was clear to Trevor that there is another man in his space.

"Madifako what have you done?"
"Trevor you are in no position to question me right now...what do you want?"
"I wanted to apologise and ask you to accompany me to CoFi Savannah Mall on Saturday because Mbali from Durban wants to meet and I really can't do this alone."
"Trevor, were you not alone when you impregnated this woman? Why do I then need to be there this time? Let's have an agreement Trevor, you deal with your issues and I deal with mine separately and allow each other time and space to tackle everything."
Trevor got back into his CitiGolf, reversed his car gave Madifako a look with a tinge of disgust and disappointment then drove off, roses and all.
Madifako got into her house and at the same spot as yesterday closed the door and slid to the floor and cried again...

She didn't allow herself to cry as long as she did yesterday because this was now feeling like a habit. She checked her phone (16 missed calls) and remembered that she actually had a client (Maggie) coming in for her first image consultation in the next hour and first impressions last so she needed to get back in the shower, freshen up and rather focus on work because clearly her love department sucks lemons!
