Postcards from Past Lives: Part 3 of 3

When we first arrived at the international airport in Harare, the capital city of Zimbabwe, I was utterly fascinated by the first African person I ever laid my eyes on. We then travelled to Masvingo where my parents were based. I was fluent in Farsi in Iran, then I sadly forgot it all and became fluent in Bengali and then in Zimbabwe, I first learnt English and then a bit of Shona. The only Shona I remember is: zita rangu ndiTasmi (unoriginally, my name is Tasmi), Mangwanani, Masikati, Maseru (Good; Morning, Afternoon, Evening) and ndlovu (an elephant) which is the same in isiZulu, which I learnt a little of in South Africa. I recall sharing a room with Bhaiya initially because I was too scared to have my own room, and at night he taught me to say "I'm sorry, I don't know how to speak English". This worked until my fellow classmates would implore how I could say that, if I didn't know how to speak English which always ended me being in a puddle of tears! 

I recall that I would take a slab of self cut bread that I would layer margarine and jam on, as my school lunch. The other kids would love my lunch during break and offer to swap their sandwiches. One such instance, someone offered their ham sandwich. I took it happily but when I went home, I asked Ammu what that is? She said it's pig meat, why am I asking she inquired?!  I was so shocked because pig meat isn't permitted in Islam, I just fibbed that I learnt a new word in English!  In Zimbabwe I excelled at swimming and in Primary School, unlike Bangladesh. I remember being one of the few non-Africans except for a coloured girl sometime later, because I have a mental image of a class photo with me at the centre, seated on a chair being their token non-African!  I just looked shyly onto the camera.  It's also when my teenage hormones were about to blossom. I remember first having a crush on Unique who was a classmate, and then an even bigger crush on my friend Shilpa's brother, Benny. I couldn't dare talk directly to either of them!

I fondly remember Bindu Didi and her younger sister, Mini Didi whose proper name is Neha, that lived close to us. They gave us tuition and we adored them! My childhood memories were made complete by Sarah and Kolly, sisters and avid dog lovers! I also remember our two dogs, Lully (she had red fur and red in Bengali is lull) who we acquired first, then Shanthi (named after our dog in Iran). I recall when they would get hormonal and Shanthi would mount Lully, I would be disgusted and push Shanthi off until he didn't take too kindly to it!  I sadly recollect our first dog who Sarah and Kolly’s dad mistakenly drove over at our house. Abbu was so distraught, he even wrote a poem about that pup, like father like daughter - now that I think about it!  I just remember how much I loved playing at the two sisters’ house, we would act out story books that we had read. They made me as artistically inclined as I was later in life. I remember that both sisters would come to learn Arabic by Abbu, and I was the weakest, always ending in tears!

I recall having developed quite a big community in Masvingo and in Zimbabwe in general, so I dreaded leaving! Nouman Uncle, a young Pakistani doctor that I ended up resenting because he fussed when we were packing for South Africa and I was taking all my books; this couple with a big family, Uncle Ali with a particularly tall wife that I drew a cartoon sketch of because they humored me so much. I also fondly remember Ammu's best friend from Medical School, who was happily married in Harare, who we visited from time to time. They owned a rose plantation in a greenhouse and owned massive property which kept us busy. I remember other Bengalis we met in Zimbabwe as well as the Bengali commissioner and his family that we were very close to, particularly when they moved to South Africa as well.

When we lived in Zimbabwe, Robert Mugabe the president, was everyone's hero but it was only later he started his strange antics. I recall being located close to Zimbabwe Ruins in Masvingo, and before we went to South Africa, we visited Victoria Falls and nearby Bulawayo.  We even crossed the border to Zambia!  In tradition with what we always did before leaving a country for another one.  I think because apartheid ended in South Africa, there was a demand for doctors in public hospitals and my parents seized the opportunity.  I was beginning to feel homeless because we always relocated. The only comfort I got from being in South Africa next, was that it was going through exciting political transition.  I just couldn't understand how a country could be ruled by a minority race and was excited to be able to witness and participate in its transformation!

Part One : Chapter Twenty-One - She’s a heartbreaker

It was their fifth day in Zimbabwe and they had less than week left.  Evelyn was loving it here so far and wanted to explore everything.  So far, Chelsy had taken her to all of her favourite places.  Tonight though they were having a family and friends party at the Mangwanani restaurant which Dakarai owned.  

It was a beautiful restaurant with rich dark mahogany wood and they had an open area with vibrant green grass and a patio as well as fairy lights that were turned on during the night to give a cosy feeling.  It overlooked the beautiful ocean which Evelyn and Chelsy already swam and surfed in.  They saw sea turtles and took a boat tour out to see the dolphins.  She was able to snorkel with the sea turtles and thought it was the best holiday she had been on in a while.  Evelyn had also brought her under water camera along as well and was glad she had to document the trip.  

She was able to take a picture of a sea turtle that swam right up to her and she couldn't wait to get it printed and hang up in her apartment.  

Evelyn hadn't properly spoken to William since she landed in Zimbabwe as he wanted her to fully enjoy her holiday.  As she was applying her blusher to her cheeks for some colour - Chelsy popped her head in the bathroom.  

"Hey, you almost ready?"

"Yeah, just need to finish the other cheek then all set."

"Perfect," she squealed.

Evelyn was wearing a white flowing dress that had spaghetti straps.  It was from one her favourite brands from needle and thread and she paired it with some flip flops and her blonde hair was in loose waves.  Chelsy was dressed in something similar wearing all white as well but instead chose to wear a white tank top and a flowing white skirt and put her blonde hair in a loose bun and wore bracelets on her wrist.  

"Okay all done," Evelyn announced as she walked out and met with Chelsy.

The two girls linked arms as they walked out and met Chelsy's family in the car.  Evelyn was loving Zimbabwe so far and couldn't believe that their holiday was coming to an end.  Evelyn let the cool Zimbabwean air flitter across her face as she looked out at the beautiful scenery.

Little kids were running around, chasing the other as Evelyn and Chelsy were laughing and chatting with Dakarai and his wife Aaliyah.  Their two children, two girls, Daliah and Imani.  Chelsy's family were talking to their friends as well.  Daliah was eleven and Imani - twelve.  Chelsy's brother unfortunately wasn't able to be here for when the girls were but Chelsy hoped that next time he could meet Eve.  

The clinking of the wine glass got everyone's attention as they stopped speaking and focused their attention on Dakarai as his wife stood next to him.

"I just wanted to thank everyone for coming out tonight and meeting our dear friend, Evelyn Bennett.  It truly has been a pleasure spending time with you and any friend of Chelsy's is a friend of ours.  You are always welcome here.  As we say in our shona language: kusvikira tichisangana zvakare which means until we meet again," Evelyn put her hand to her heart touched by the kindness that Dakarai, Chelsy's family and everyone she had met had shown her.  Cheers everyone and enjoy the rest of the night," he finished his speech as he and the rest of the party drank their champagne.

*

"You should go," Harry told Evelyn over the mobile.  

He had known how close the two blondes were and he hated how things were ended between Harry and Chelsy.  Knowing that Evelyn felt as though she were playing tug-of-war with herself on who to choose, he would never forgive himself if she distanced herself from Chelsy.

"Harry-"

"Listen to me, all right?"

She stayed silent as she listened to him talk.

"I know how close you two were and I hate to think that you can't hang out with her anymore because of me.  I'll be all right, promise.  You don't have to worry about me.  I hate that you feel like you have to choose because you don't.  I know that you are still a good friend to me and now I'm being a good friend to you.  Go."

"Thanks Harry, I appreciate it.  Truly."

"Yeah, yeah.  Just do me a favour and tell her how great I'm doing since she broke up with me, yeah?"

Evelyn let out a laugh as a happy tear trailed down her cheek and she wiped it away.  

"Of course.  Couldn't let her know anything else.  You'll be fine, Harry.  Just fine."

"Thanks, Eve."

"Of course.  I'm always here for you, Haz."

After they ended their phone call, Eve let out a sigh.  Not long after they got back from their holiday, Chelsy unfortunately broke up with Harry.  This time for good.  Evelyn should have seen it coming but it threw her out of left field still.  When Chelsy had asked Evelyn when she and Wills were going to come out as a couple she had seen the worry and concern in her.  

It was November twenty-eight and a bit chilly.  Evelyn decided to wear black stockings along with a red suede skirt and a long sleeve black blouse.  She paired her outfit with some black booties and wore her blonde hair straight adding a bit more makeup to her complexion.  Eve finished off the look with spritzing on her favourite perfume.  Evelyn grabbed her parcel for Chelsy and left to go to the club.

*

The music was blaring and Chelsy was downing shots wanting to get wasted for her birthday.  

"Eve," Chelsy shouted at her friend as soon as she saw her and drunkenly walked to her throwing her arms around her neck.  "I'm so glad you made it."

Evelyn could already smell the alcohol on her breath but was excited to drink as it had been a crazy week at work.  

"Happy Birthday, Chels," Eve told her happily handing her the parcel she bought.

"Aw, thank you.  Come on.  Come meet the rest of my friends," Chelsy took Eve's hand and guided her to their table.  

"Guys, this is my good friend Evelyn.  Evelyn, this is Natalie and my good friend Gemma.  Lastly, my good friend, Noah."

"Nice to meet you all," they exchanged pleasantries and order Evelyn a drink which she happily takes.  

Everyone was downing shots as the club music was playing, Evelyn was dancing in her seat.  She loved to dance and let loose.  Chelsy grabbed Evelyn's hand and guided her to the dance floor as they danced and laughed.

After they became tired of it, they moved over to their seats and let out a breath.  

"I'm gonna go make a call I'll be back," Eve yells at Chelsy over the loud music.

Chelsy nodded her head and then went back to the dance floor as Eve made her way over to a quieter area although she was sure that during the phone call the loud dancing music could still be heard.  Of course, his mobile went straight to voice mail.  She had expected it as he was back at military training and they weren't allowed to properly have them.  Still, nonetheless, she left a voicemail anyway.

"Wills?" she shouted into the mobile.  "I know you won't hear this until you get back.  But," she sucked in a breath letting it out, pouting slightly.  "I miss you loads.  I haven't seen you in weeks and I miss being around you.  I wish you were here," she begins to cry due to being drunk.  "Lots has happened since you've been gone.  Did you know that Chelsy broke up with Harry?  I don't want us to break up.  Only two more months until I get to see you again, talk soon!"

It was a wild birthday, but everyone had loads of fun.  Evelyn stumbled in a cab as she didn't want to drive drunk.  She made it to her home and unlocked her door, feeling hungry and thirsty so she decided to make some dinner.  Looking through her cabinet, she got out some shell pasta and heated up her stove on the oven.  Eve waited for the water to boil a bit before pouring them in and then she also put some pesto sauce on.  This was one of her favourite dishes also to make as it was so simple but good.  Whilst she was making dinner, she was also drinking loads of water and took some pain medicine for the headache she knew would come in the morning.

Black Centric Forum's President, Vukulu Sizwe Maphindani earlier today was at Mangwanani Beauty Spar in Hartbees providing leadership to the 36 employees who were unfairly suspended because they probed for clarity when they were paid half of their salary for Last month. Some of the conditions in the company includes; 1. Non-compliance regarding the employer and employee contract, 2. Their contract asserts that the employees are not permitted to seek legal/Union representation during hearings, 3. They were suspended because it is alleged that they participated in an illegal strike which is an unfounded and blatant lie. We have intervened and the Disciplinary hearing have been postponed to a further date and the new letter is updated - we have confirmed that they have been suspended on full pay and may seek legal representation for the hearing. And only then we can finalize on this matter but we have assured the employees that they would not be dismissed.
