My full name is Zamantungwa Agnes Khumalo, don't mind my middle name, my dad's mother gave it to me before she passed I was told. Even if she was the sweetest grandmother in the area, the name though. Yoh guys! Lols One thing about me is that I am an accounting fanatic! To know about my background story, you have to read further... it was lovely meeting you. **** "MaKhumalo breathe please. Yes, just like that. Slowly does it", he kept rubbing my back in a soothing manner as he said this. We sat there while I tried to regain my senses, and him murmuring softly to me. The tears have seized now atleast. The tight grip he maintained with his other hand didn't go unnoticed. It was a reassurance-kind-of-grip, filled with care and concern. His heartbeat has gone back to normal now. Listening to it was slowly making me sleepy. "You can't sleep sitting on the floor like this, love. Come on let's go to bed", he tried making me get up but I shook my head slightly. He sighed, picked me up and carried me effortlessly to a bedroom. "Please don't leave me alone", I said with a dead grip on his hand. "But I'm just next door. Look I'll even leave the door open incase you need me. Uhm... you know what, let me get you some tea to help you sleep", he removed my hand with ease. "I'll be back just now, I promise MaKhumalo", he kissed my forehead before rushing out the door. I stayed alone for 5 seconds before I got up like I was stung, made my way to the room next to where I was. Took of my dress, got under the covers quickly, his scent filled my nose as I snuggled on his pillow. Before I knew it, it was lights out. What happened must have drained me more than I thought. #southafrican RANKINGS: [26.09.25 #3 convict] [10.07.25] #8 crazypeople [07.07.25] #2 convict [29.07.25] #1 convict

Prologue Omar forgot his existence, his eyes had frozen as the brown pupils dilated, his mind had focused entirely on the shadow. A flickering hope in the darkness as the water had coaxed its way towards him …he had struggled with his gait, the insane heart could never be reined. A captive had his own freedom of imagination that no forces could bind. She had tied him down, those eyes had dragged him to the stark reality of his life. Gently stripping him of the only thing he had ever owned, his pride. Today, as his palm withdrew from the fist, he looked at them carefully. The maze of lines had entangled his dreams , his life and even his love. He still remembered the first time he had seen her ….as he closed his eyes …..remembering her first image …it was not a place he would expect to see such a beautiful girl…infact a girl at all….he was not looking forward for anything in life ..till she had stepped in that room …the twilight in his world …her steps ..had changed everything …wish he could have re-winded. As he stared at the only picture that they had clicked together, Tahiras smile her innocence, the sparkle in her eyes. As he saw carefully, they never were a regular couple, they both were on the opposite sides of right and wrong. He smiled looking at his wrists handcuffed together, as memories peeked through his smiles, now entangled with her, a gentle reminder that he would be forever be The Convict.
