Lungile's Surprise

Lungile hosts her younger daughter's friend's birthday party, and meets the friend's father, Zach. She finds him gorgeous, and gets to dance with him, which is a pleasure, but also torture, as it reminds her again, how very lonely she is.
She, her daughters, and Zach and his daughter go to church together the following day.

She stopped going some time ago, and the township gossip says something that annoys her. In response to the woman, she claims to be married to Zach. She is shocked by her words, but he does not seem to mind.

Days later, her parents arrive to visit her, and the gossipmonger tells them that she is married. Her attempts to deny it are stopped before she can make them.

She visits Zach, to get away from her family, and finds his relatives there, they have been told that he is married. Lungile is shocked that her lie has reached people who do not live in the same city that she does.

Zach suggests that they marry, for the sake of the children. She is reluctant at first, then she agrees. She is surprised to be married again, and by how different her second marriage is, to her first one.

Zach reveals a secret about someone he calls his friend. It makes him tense, and causes her great concern.
