Chapter 4

Njabulo and Zinhle didn't speak a word until the cabin door shut behind them. Even then it was just silence at first — heavy, crackling, thick with everything they couldn't unsee. They walked straight into the bedroom, eyes darting everywhere but at each other, as if locking gazes might somehow set them off.

Njabulo finally broke the tension. "Eish. This place is... insane."

Zinhle let out a shaky laugh. "I mean... they were just doing it. Out in the open. Like it was completely normal."

"They didn't even flinch when we walked up."

"I know!" Zinhle said, pacing now. "And — oh my god, I can't believe I'm saying this — but did you see the size of Kgosi's... willy?"

Njabulo blinked. "Willy?" he repeated, half-laughing.

"I don't know what else to call it! I couldn't say cock, it just sounds too... I don't know! But it was huge. Like... stupidly big."

Njabulo laughed again, more awkward this time, rubbing the back of his neck. "Yeah. I saw."

Zinhle covered her face. "I feel like I shouldn't be talking about another man's... thing... like that."

Njabulo was quiet for a moment, then said, "It's fine. I mean... it's not like I wasn't looking either."

She peeked at him through her fingers. "Really?"

Njabulo nodded. "Yeah. And I can't believe I'm saying this either... but Sbahle's pussy—"

"Hhayibo — Njabulo!" Zinhle gasped, eyes wide.

"No, seriously. It was hairy. Like, really hairy. She hadn't shaved a thing. And I've never been into that, not once in my life, but... I couldn't stop staring. I don't know why. It was just so raw. So real."

Zinhle let out a breath, then sat on the edge of the bed. "This is messing with my head."
