A World Of Women

Extract from Thandi H. Dlamini's diary, year 2058: "I never thought this day would ever come. The day when every male on the planet ceased to exist. It's absolutely mind-boggling. The words convey meaning, yet lack true coherence. While all the women celebrated this accomplishment, I harbored a deep resentment. A resentment so intense that it drove me to betray those I once trusted wholeheartedly. I am left with no one to rely on, not even my own mother. I feel lost in this realm of sorcery. Will I ultimately perish in solitude within this dystopian society?"

"Thando, hold up!" I heard Amara's voice behind me as I walked down the street, lost in thought. She caught up, panting out of breath as she reached my side.

"Amara? Is there something wrong?" I asked, a bit surprised to see her.

"No, no. I just thought it would be great if I walked you home. It's no longer safe walking alone."

"Amara, I'm fine. I don't need you to babysit me."

"It doesn't count as 'babysitting' if no one is sitting on a baby. Am I right?" Amara teased, cracking a smile on my face.

I chuckled, "Okay, fine. But where's Juliet? Did you leave her behind?" I glanced back, half expecting to see Juliet running to catch up.

"She said it's okay if I do. She wants to wait by the school for her mom to pick her up."

I nodded in understanding, "Okay then."
