There is something awesome about Fridays. You dress smart casual. It's great because you can go from office straight to sundowners

You get a call from your boy Ace for drinks at the spot. You put your bag in the boot and drive. You switch the music in the Audi from Juanita Bynum's "I don't mind waiting" that you were playing in the AM, to Junior Taurus - Settle Down. Isukile indaba

During the drive, you get a call from your old lady. You chat a bit and tell her you will send a lil something. As you arrive at the restaurant, the car guards come running, pointing you to open spaces "sure sure bhudda yam"

It's month end, you are in a good mood. So you decide to reverse park so they can see the lights of the 4 rings. You go to the boot, phfa phfa some Chanel Bleu, give the car guard a R20 and be on your way. Lock car, parking lights fade away

You see Ace at a table outside, you greet and he asks "dude. Was that necessary?? there was ample parking space. You could have just parked normally. Now eveeeeryone must see you" mxim. You respond "that's the point young fella"

You sit down. Zandile, the waitress with the afro dred and nose ring comes to greet "Hey you. The usual? 2 Draughts and 4 Jagermeisters?" "Thanks fam. You know"

Before you sit down, you tell Ace "let me send my old lady this stack quick, One time." You ewallet Moms. Call, confirm receipt and say "ok sure. Love you" oh madoda. Oledi

Ace starts preaching "do you know mtshana that a a car is a depreciating asset? Invest in property" you respond "mate, first of all, That's not a car, it's an Audi" you both laugh it off

Mid chat, you get a call, it's your main man Spiyoyo "ey my chief!!!! where are entering them? " you tell him and he responds "moja San, coming now. I know izinja zam have kept my parking apho"

A few moments later you hear the GTI exhaust. Kabza De Small - Hello pumping!! You laugh because you know Spiyo has arrived

As Spiyo sits, Zandi comes rushing, "hi Ta Spiyo. Hennessy bottle?" He responds "my loving. Sometimes i feel You know me better than I know myself. Yes please. Chicken Nachos also. I'm hungry"

You say "ekse laytie. Sick jersey boi, its a bit warm for it innit?" he responds "chief this is MaXhosa. It's not a jersey this one, it's a cardigan. You can't lay-buy it. It cost a case of Hennessy VS this arrangement.
Respect me please" sure Spiyo boiii

Zandi comes with the nachos. Spiyo looks at a table of two ladies across, enjoying a nice Chardonnay and asks if they would like some nachos? They say No, but Spiyo says "In African culture, it's wrong to turn down an invite. It's only food hey"

Ladies oblige and engage in Nachos. Nthabi and Amanda are their names. Spiyo calls Zandi and says "My friend. Can I have another bottle of this wine and 6 jagers please Infact, transfer their bill here to this table, i will sort them" what a guy!!!

Amanda interjects, as she lifts her hand, you can spot the iwatch. She says "No sisi. We are here alone, we will pay for our own drinks Thank you very much" Zandi looks at Spiyo, he says "who am I to stand in the way of an independent black woman??"

As chats are going, Ace says he's leaving, you ask why? He responds "gents I have to leave, if I go home a minute after 00h00, my wife has the liberty to call my parents and say 'he didn't sleep at home last night" Nthabi says "yabona chomie. A real man"

You say "come on man. Married life is easy. You only got one woman to satisfy" Amanda says "okay thanks Will Smith Bad Boys. Can the gentle brother go home please" you all laugh

Spiyo leaves to greet a gent. They hold each other in convo. He comes back. Amanda asks "who's that gentle brother? He's dressed so nice"

Spiyo responds "That's my mate Thulani Mayola. He runs a company called Ezamantlane Hiring Services. that does Hire out event infrastructure in PE. Tents, mobile fridges etc.

Amanda responds " Oh my gosh. It's my sisters 21st soon, she wants one of those cool tents that I have to pay for. Can you give me his number please" Spiyo responds "okay let me check my iPhone quick: 0721492566"

Zandi comes and asks "Another round guys?" You answer "nah bill please." Nthabi responds "Can we have ours also" Spiyo interjects "zan give it to my friend. He will pay it plus add R200 tip" pointing to you

She comes back. You look at Bill Cosby (The Bill), Spiyo winks at You you look at Amanda, who's now dancing to some deep house. You pay it. One pom fiy including tip

You all agree to go to the club. Spiyo asks Nthabie to go with him. Amanda says "Hold your horses cowboy. My friend is going with me" Spiyo answers "Nthabie. Masambe nge GTI baby"

She responds "My friend. Please follow us. I'm going to go with this chap. I have a good feeling about him" you look at Amanda and she says "okay fine" so it's a 3 car Convoy to Cubana

So you guys arrive at Cu-baby. There is a bit of a line to get in. So Spiyo says to give him a minute. He shouts towards the bouncers "Ey Mon ami!!!" A big guy at the door responds "Ey My brother come come come. Comment ça va?"

Spiyo responds "Ca va bien. Ca va bien. Merci" as the velvet rope is lifted and Spiyo gestures to go in, Phakathi inside!! Someone in the que protests why you are going in, bouncer responds "ey relaaax relaaax. They was inside. Just to fetch something in the car okay"

As you walk past the DJ both, you and Spiyo greet DJ LT, whos behind the decks. Amanda asks "Who don't you guys know?" You laugh it off as the waiter ushers you to a table

"Hi guys. Unless youre going to buy a bottle, This table is reserved" Before you are able to answer, Spiyo interjects "Sisi. Please. Yourself you must relax. Please bring a bottle of Hennessy, still water, 2 red bulls, 2 bottles Vueve Brut and two flutes"

Amanda says "So you're not going to even ask us whay we want? You just nje order Veuve? We must accept thina?" Spiyo answers "Amish. Calm down sisi. Bring yourself towards yourself. That was for me and my friend. You cdes must cater for yourselves" everyone laughs

The DJ drops Jobe London's Sukendleleni. Nthabi and Amanda break it down. You see Nthabie voshoring. tight jeans, manicured nails and black Nike Vapormax you nudge Spiyo and wink. What a time to be alive!!!!

Spiyo asks the waitress to pour champers for the ladies while you pour Henny. Two ice cubes, water and just a splash of Red BullSpiyo calls ladies closer to toast "We are our grandparents wildest dreams. May we never fail them. Cheers" Cheeeeeers!!! Toasts all around

Amanda comes to Spiyo and says "you're a red flag wena yazi. It can't be that you say the right thing at every single time. Let me see. You probably leave your wedding ring in the car" she grabs his hand to see outline of a ring. Spiyo laughs

Nthabie asks for a selfie with all 4 of you. As she takes it she says "I'm going post this on Twitter with caption saying: who's boyfriends are these?" You all laugh DJ LT drops Jebson, you all go buck, jiving. Touching elbows. It's lit

Amanda and Nthabie go to the bathroom. You ask Spiyo if he's keen on a stogie? He responds "If not us, then who?" You call the lady with the mobile humidor. "Can i have 2 Partagas Series D. No 4 please. Add them to the bill"

Ladies come back. Amanda says she met her Ex's friend. He gave them two shooters of Jager. You pop open another Vueve and pour for ladies. Nice vibes all around

While you are chatting, Amanda gets a tap on her shoulder. Another shooter it's the friend of the ex. She looks at him. Laughs and downs it. Spiyo says with a strsight face "Amanda. Never accept a drink that wasn't poured or opened in front of you"

Vibes keep going. Spiyo calls another bottle of Vueve. You guys are all within Vibes now. DJ LT just dropped Nick Holders Summer Daze (Dukesouls mellow touch). Spiyo goes to him and gives him a fist bump

You and Nthabie are within cozy vibes. You give her a young nibble there behind the ear, back of the neck vibes. Spiyo shouts "Yesss boi. Phakathi inside" Amanda is standing, she looks dazed. She taps Nthabie and they quickly go to the bathroom.

Spiyo shows you Ace's whatsapp status. It's a video of him on the couch under blankets watching Kardashians with the caption "Get married they said. It will be fun" you both laugh "Chief. Friday evening, me at home watching TV. Never!!!!"

It's been a minute now. Spiyo asks about the girls. You both decide to go ask. There is a commotion at the bathroom door. Nthabie comes and says Amanda is passed out. Spiyo says to you "She's not passed out, she's drug this woman chief" he pushes people aside to get to her

He gets to her and there is a guy who says "She's my friend. I will take her home" Spiyo comes in and says "Chief. Unless you are her father, she's going nowhere with you" the grab each other, Spiyo Grabs him closer and headbutts him in the nose" he falls down

He picks up Amanda and rushes out the club to his car. As you are rushing out, The waitress grabs you and asks about the bill. Spiyo responds "Tell the manager it's Spiyanko. I'm good for it" he rushes to his car, puts Amanda in the backseat and rushes to hospital

They arrive at ICU. Amanda is fading in and out of consciousness. Spiyo rushes her in. They ask about medical aid, he responds "I will pay cash. Just help her please" Amanda is whisked away. Spiyo calls you and you say you are parking. Nthabie is crying

You all sitting in the waiting area. Spiyanko breaks the ice "yerrrr. So i need to go back for that bill? What is it? R7000 divided by 4. Nthabie. You comrades must ewallet your contribution guys. No free rides" you all manage a laugh

Doctor comes out. Nurse points to you guys. You get up. He says they are unsure but it would seem she injested a date rape drug. She's under a drip and they allow you guys to see her

You go into the ward. Amanda says to Spiyo "This wasn't how I expected this night to end" Spiyo responds "Yeeey. Myself also. You owe me a MaXhosa cardigan. It's torn this one" Amanda says "Can I pay in installments?" He brushes her head and kisses her on the forehead

Nthabie says she will uber to fetch Amanda's car and come back. You agree to come see her in the morning. She thanks you guys. You leave. In the parking lot, Spiyo says "I know that punk. Don't worry. We will find him tomorrow"
