We didn't leave home.We were kicked out.My mother couldn't even look at us. She just pointed at the door like we were dirt. No goodbye. No prayer. No love left in her mouth.All because we're gay.
All because I love girls and my brother Trevor loves boys.She said we were cursed.I think the curse was being born into a house that only loved us when we were quiet.So we left.Me and Trevor, one bag each, sharing a broken phone and an empty wallet.The taxi didn't feel like freedom.It felt like punishment with wheels.Trevor tried to act strong.He kept making jokes, humming songs, smiling like he wasn't broken inside.But I know my brother.He was holding his tears in like breath.
Trevor:New city. New start. You ready?
Me:Yeah.
I wasn't. But I said it anyway.We didn't know anyone.We didn't have a plan.We just knew we couldn't go back. Not even if we begged.I watched the buildings getting tall and suddenly the taxi stopped and that's where I knew that my life was over.
Trevor:Babes are you crying?No my love we have to be strong.It's gonna be okay one day.Let's go,we'll figure out something.
He hugged me and my tears suddenly flowed.Trevor pulled me into a tight hug and then he wiped my tears and then we paid for the tax and we got off.We only had R200 left.I sighed and looked at Trevor and he squeezed my hand.
By the way,my name is Kayla Williams.I am 20 years old and I'm a coloured.I did finish school, it's just that we were so poor at home they didn't have the money to take me to university.I'm a short,light skinned stem.I have a body to die for and I'm so fucken pretty.I'm so obsessed with how I look.I have pink lips,hazel eyes and I'm a slender.I'm shy but bubbly when you get to know me.I have a short temper but I'm kind and respectful.Well I had a girls but she dumped me because "I wasn't man enough"it took me 4 years to heal yeah I'm emotionally weak.My brother, Trevor is the only person who I can call my home,he's been there for me through thick and thin.He is 17 years old,he is supposed to be doing matric but then...Well we don't have a father,he became a springbok.Back at school I had many friends and I was the most beautiful girl and I was a model.I had a stud friend but she confessed her feelings for me and later ghosted me.Okay Enough for today,back to the sad present.We were wandering around the streets and I was so fucken hungry.We went around and asked for the cheapest houses to rent and after what felt like forever,we found a small room for R100.It was stinking and dirty.It was a one room with a sponge, small basin,table,small couch and fridge only.We sighed and cleaned up the room.I can't complain,it's better that nothing.We only had one blanket so we will share it I guess.We then went to fetch water from the tap near this room then I bathed,WITH COLD WATER!then after me Trevor bathed then we prayed and slept.
Unknown POV
I'm Tyson Martin,I'm 25 years old and I'm a stud.I'm just emotionally unavailable,I don't have time for shit and I'm always busy.I have no time for girls and I don't smile for no reason.I'm not rich but I'm not poor either I'm just medium.I just got this job last year so I'm still a junior yet when I'm given a job,I leave no stone unturned yeah I'm an under cover cop.I have a family which is my Mom,dad,2 sisters and my lil nephew but I left them all behind since I had to move to a new town.I was here to take down a ghost.They call her Guluva who's ruthless, unpredictable, untouchable.In the reports, she's a myth. In the streets, she's law.
To me? She's a case file stamped,high priority.I arrived here a month ago with nothing but a mission that could bury me alive if I blink wrong.To everyone else, I'm just Ice. Quiet. Mysterious. Maybe a little too polished for this place.But inside?I'm watching. Listening.Studying the moves of a gangster who leaves blood in her footsteps and silence in her wake.They said she runs the streets like they were built for her.Even the shadows seem to bow when she passes.I know this won't be easy.She's smarter than the others.More dangerous.And somehow…
The more I learn about her, the more I feel something I
shouldn't Interest,Curiosity,Heat.No.This isn't that kind of story.This is about justice.Revenge.Closure.I didn't come here to play.I came to bring Guluva down, even if it means losing myself to do it. Yes it's been a month since I got here but I've just settled.I can't seem to get close go Guluva.She's too mysterious and scarce.I can't read her, it's just too hard.I only just know who she is from the outside but I have to know her from the inside too.For a whole month I've been trying to gather information about her but Nah it's just too hard.She's not only a closed book, she's a LOCKED book.But I have to take things slowly.I was only giveya month to settle and from now on I must act.As I was sitting on my bed thinking about this shit I heard a knock on the door.
Me:Come in!
Martha,my maid came in and bowed her head.
Martha:Sir, there's a gentleman who would like to see you downstairs.
Me: Okay,thanks.
She left then I drank water and took my file and I headed downstairs.
Me:Royce,how are you man.
We did the bro's handshake and I sat down.Well Royce is just a friend who's helping me on this case.He's been my friend since varsity but he dropped out of school and became a security.So he's just helping me out.
Royce:Bro,so what's the plan.Let me see that file
I gave him that file and stood up
Me:How about I try to get closer to her by being her friend
Royce:(chuckling)Guluva and friends?that gangster is so smart and dangerous
Me:I know but I'm not scared of her
Royce: Okay then,let me not stop you.I've heard that on Friday there will be a party on one of her clubs.For sure she'll be there
Me:On Friday?damn!I'm going home on Friday
Royce: They'll surely understand.Remember some opportunities come once.
Me:Okay you know what, thanks for the information.I'm cancelling my trip.
Royce:Good luck man.Remember that the polices of this area take orders from Guluva so don't associate yourself with them.
Me:Shit!This Guluva is unpredictable.This case will be really hard man
Royce:I trust you bro, you'll do it
We did a bros handshake and we watched soccer and then he left Ker.I sat on the couch and took my phone.I called my Mom
On call:
Mom: Pumpkin?
Me:Gosh mom I'm too old for that name now.
Mom:To me you'll always be a little child.Ohh my child it's been a long time since I saw you,and you don't even visit us
Me: I'll visit you next week,I promise
Mom:I can't wait my baby
I chuckled and then we talked and she called my sister Elena but I call her Cupcake.She's my fav sister.Well Zoey and I have been distant ever since I threatened her that I'll kill her is she doesn't stop this nonsense of lusting over me.She wanted me to fuck her and she kept on seducing me so yeah we aren't talking to each other.As for dad,we recently fought because he didn't want me to leave.
Mom:Tell me pumpkin,when are you going to apologize to your father?
Me:Why should I apologize?He started it
Mom: Pumpkin, he's your father and he only want what's best for you and ....
Me:Okay,okay fine I'll see when I come there
Mom:Good.Have you found a girlfriend there
Me:Not this topic again,bye mom I'll see you later
I dropped the call before she could say anything.My mom is so nosy.In case you're wondering how I look,I'm tall and light skinned.I have pretty eyes and pink lips and I'm a slender.Sharp.
