lerato

lerato

she was the most beautiful girl i had ever seen. she came to me when i was sitting on the bench of a train. i had seen her before. the priest was preaching in the train last year. he asked if there was a person who want to be prayed for. she raised her arm. she was playing with the phone. you know, scrolling. i was busy looking at her. when she looked back, i would shyly look away. she smiled.

she had seen that i loved her long before she said:' dont you want to join me in this?'

i was shocked but happy as well.

'okay' i said.

it was crazy. to me it was like our wedding day. the priest finished. she disappeared through the crowd after the train stopped. i could see her. she came back january this year beaming. wearing a short skirt. she showed me pictures of her family members in her phone. she said they lived in soweto.

'i love you', i quipped.

she laughed and hugged me.

'i have been waiting for this day.' she replied.

i cried tears of joy as i kissed her.

"Why does it always rain?"she whispered,"Every day the same thing."
"It rains so we can cuddle up in front of the fireplace and drink cognac,"I laughed, pulling her closer.
