DEEPLY ENTICED
(EPISODE 40 FINAL EPISODE)
.
Zenzele
The day I have been dreaming about is finally here the weird thing is I didn’t feel nervous about anything. I was actually happy. I was already at the alter and waiting for my lovely bride. The way I proposed was actually funny, with the way she was behaving I didn’t think she was going to say yes. Earlier that week she had caught me staring behind her and she assumed I was staring at the girl behind her. So it became really weird when I wanted to propose because she was still a little bit mad at me.
I had kneeled behind of her in the restaurant hoping for her to turn around but then she didn’t… she just walked forward without glancing back at me. I stood up and took her to a restaurant and told the waiter to put a ring in her drink… the waiter did so successfully but she actually gulped down that drink like she was thirsty before I knew it she was choking….
That moment I felt like everything I was trying to do was going wrong. Instead of her spitting out the ring she started shaking and then after a while she stopped moving at all. I don’t even know when I started crying I just know that in the heat of the moment a lady was actually trying to help her out and I was kneeling besides her crying and begging her to keep holding on.
The lady actually put her two fingers inside her throat and came out with the ring but she still didn’t move… after a few chest thrusts she actually opened her eyes gasping for breath. I immediately held her in my arms and squeezed her tight while the people who were surrounding us applauded.
“Zenzie… it’s okay I am fine stop crying” she had said at that moment but I didn’t feel like letting her go or stopping my cries.
I heard her clicking her tongue after some time “what the fuck was in my drink that almost killed me… this restaurant…. You know what… Zenzie let me go I want to stand up and get the person who served me that drink fired… I mean this is a very reputed restaurant, how could they be so…. Careless”
She didn’t stop talking as she was trying to push me off but then I calmed her down.
“Baby… babe, calm down” that moment I showed her the ring “it wasn’t supposed to try to kill you”
She blinked twice and by then she was her mouth was completely shut but before I realized what was on my way she let out a glass breaking squeal and grabbed the ring then put it on her finger while kissing me even though I actually ask her to become my wife. “I guess it’s a yes” I had told the crowd and they laughed and applauded.
The next day we had made the cover page the topic being almost killed by a ring. But still I dint care about what the fuck they wrote about.
“Hey son… is you ready” a deep voice startled me from my thoughts. I looked at him and gave him a respectful smile
Me: father in law
Mr. Zanindi: how are you feeling?
Me: great… actually I am wondering why she isn’t here yet
Mr. Zanindi: don’t worry about that… it’s a must that she keeps you waiting
Me: okay…. Thanks
He moved back to his seat… we have actually became very good friends and I have come to realize that he is not actually as scary and ugly as I thought her is. He used to make fun of the time when I kneeled in front of him to ask for forgiveness.
When my uncles went to his house for bride price he actually refused money as bride price and he said he wanted 18 live cows and two bulls. I was so shocked when I heard the amount of cows he wanted but either way I said they should just pay, then the uncles started demanding money for the fact that she is beautiful, that was five thousand then they wanted another five thousand for the fact that she is intelligent and then another five thousand for the fact that she was employed as an architecture in a very well-known high performing company, when my dad told me I almost screamed my head off I mean I am the one who hired her as my architecture. The family was going nuts over our money.
People started settling in the chairs I guessed that she had arrived. Trisha’s girls walked towards the alter sprinkling red and white rose petals and the Junior and Thabiso followed them and sat next to them. They were all looking so cute. Lorato and Tshepiso… one could swear they wear identical but they weren’t they just looked way too alike. They smiled and soon enough I saw them starting to decorate each other with the petals.
The organ starts to play then I see her coming in wearing a dress that shocked me. it was just above knee length. It had spaghetti sleeves and black tiny flowers but despite the fact that I didn’t think it was a wedding dress she was absolutely stunning and she kept on wiping tears from her eyes but she couldn’t stop smiling.
Mr. Zanindi: dare mess with my daughter… I am going to send you to hell
Me: oh I do believe that sir but I couldn’t hurt her even if you were to send me to heaven
We whispered to each other as he handed her over to me. She let out a slight laughed then let go of me just to hug her father.
The whole ceremony was started with a prayer then after a little of preaching we recited our vows after the priest. The whole set up was Fadz’s mother’s idea… she clearly told us that she doesn’t want what happened at henry and Trisha’s wedding she said it was against the rules and unethical I mean does a wedding has rules… anyway I was good with everything as long as I got to make Fadz my wife.
Since nowadays we have become celebrities because of my company and Henry’s super wedding there were actually reporters and a few paparazzi at my wedding even though we tried to make it small. After we said I do Trisha gave the boys the wedding rings in a small bed and they both brought it to us and went back to sit down.
“Mommy I also want a ring” Lorato’s tiny voice yelled and the whole attention turned to her. Trisha hushed her with her strict face.
Priest: you may now kiss the bride.
Me: finally
I whispered to her before I owned her lips. She giggled in between our kisses. I love her so much.
A while later we were at the reception area a few people talking about Fadz’s childhood although I wasn’t listening I just wondered when this whole thing will end so that I can have her all to myself.
Fadz: stop staring at me like that
She pushed my face away playfully
Me: hey… is it wrong for a man to look at that thing that he adores the most… that most beautiful thing…
Fadz: thing?
Me: you are too good to be a human
Fadz: you have completely gone crazy
Me: crazy for you
Fadz: mxm (giggles)
Me: what have you done to me?
Fadz: what do you mean?
Me: you have practically turned me into your lapdog… what kind of potion have you used on me
Fadz: Zenzie… you know this is not the time or place to be throwing those lines
Me: hey…. You are mine now and I can throw in any line at anytime and anywhere we want
Fadz: oh really… well what if I make you shut up
Me: I would like to see you try
She grabbed my face and gave a passionate kiss which made everyone applaud but then she bit my lower lip until I pulled back… she was smiling so proudly…. She was pleased with herself
Fadz: are you going to let me enjoy my night or bother me with your cheeky comments now
Me: no mam… you totally shut me up
The two boys came and stood between me and Fadz
Thabiso: aunty you look really pretty
Fadz: oh thank you baby
Yes….. That’s Thabiso, sometimes I think he is going to turn out gay
Junior: aunty why are you wearing a short dress… I thought you are supposed to be wearing like Rati’s Cinderella
And then there is the ever so inquisitive one
Fadz: no my boy… I am not a Cinderella
Me: hey… why exactly did you come here?
Junior: because Thabi doesn’t agree that I am his uncle…. He won’t believe it
Me: but… where are your parents….
Thabiso: granny is at the patio and mom said she is going to the rest room and then after Rati asked daddy why he was staring at mommy as she was walking away he just stood up and followed her then they never returned.
Fadz: oh my word
She looked at me trying to keep it all in they we both burst out laughing.
Me: okay go and play with Rati and Tshepi okay
They both nodded and ran away.
Me: those two are crazy in love
Fadz: true
Me: guess where our honey moon is
Fadz: cape Town
Me: boring
Fadz: Zanzibar
Me: somewhere better
Fadz: okay…. A secret island
Me: that’s for another time…
Fadz: I give up… say it
Me: Disney land
Fadz: are you freaken kidding me
Me: no
Fadz: that is so stupid… if you take me to Disney land for our honey moon then where are we going to take our kids for a holiday
Me: (laughs) gotcha… actually baby…. We are going to Paris
Fadz: you had me there… baby that is so great…. When are we leaving?
Me: tonight… on our private Jet
Oh, I forgot to mention this. Trisha bought me a private Jet for my birthday. I literally refused it until she said it was a family private jet but then she bought another family private jet and they left this one for me.
*** Narrator ***
Well the truth is… Zenzie and Trisha were never made for each other. Otherwise Zenzie wouldn’t even know who he is or where he belongs he would still be a Gardner on her backyard getting paid by his lover’s father and as for Trisha she probably wouldn’t have matured. As for henry he would still be leaving a shady life with a whole bunch of secrets following him around. So separating them was for the best… I know these are my characters but who would argue with me if I said Zenzie needed a much better girlfriend.

THE END.
