@makaziwe3ram was sceptical and wrote, “Nah bro, it’s still early for you to call people ‘baby.’ Hustle, you need to heal. Don’t do yourself like that.”
“The king is happy again, remarked @avile_gladile.
While @sarah_kgadi_aphane said to Nandi, “Eish, girl. You need to allow a person to heal first because eish.”
