I always knew that my marriage to Ona would be more about duty than it would be about love. You don't marry a man like that and think like an average woman. My time to be in love and be by this man's side because I love him has reached its end. Now, the truth about my marriage kicks in. To prove it, I slept in the bed with Mohale and Tholoana - after having to explain to Mohale that...
Mason is away with his mother and Shaka. Olu has gone back to her place because she is preparing the house to be accommodative of Khotso being on a wheelchair. She is busy replacing her staircases with ramps and just making the place wheelchair friendly. She even changed one of her toilets - the one that she and Khotso use - to a lower toilet that Khotso can use while on the wheelchair.I’m not sure if she has forgiven Khotso...
"With Khotso down for the next couple of months, I've been asked to step up. So I'll be working a lot more hours.""And leaving me with two babies all alone."He looks at me."Babe, do you want me to maybe ask Nothile to come down and help us?" He suggests."No, it's fine. I can manage my kids. I just feel like my life has paused. There's absolutely nothing going on in my life except being a mother. The only adult interactions...
Celebrating 10 weeks of In Too DeepKhotso and Oluremi have been separated for two months now. And because the Mohales refuse to leave Oluremi’s house, Oluremi has moved into my house. Which means Khotso has moved into my house because he comes here to beg her everyday to forgive him and hear him out. Then he sleeps in the car and as his boy, I can't let that happen. So I let him sleep in the house now, in the...
Celebrating 10 weeks of In Too DeepI honestly don’t feel like going anywhere today. I actually like Oluremi’s house a lot. It is not as big as the royal house, but it is warm and cosy – just like its owner. It is the kind of house that you want to lock yourself up in the whole day and do nothing but just be in it. Now I know why my son is always here and I barely see him...
"Why don't you wear those shorts that you always bounce around in every morning?" I ask Lulu as she steps out of our bedroom in a short-sleeved maxi-dress. "Because your parents are also here in the house. I can't be walking around in shorts that have half my butt-cheek out." "Why do you let people do this to us? First, we got bullied out of our own master bedroom. Now, you can't wear what we want in our own house? It feels...
Khotso is feeling a bit emotional today. He just woke up in the morning and looked like he was carrying the entire world on his shoulders. "Baby? Are you alright?" I ask him. My plan was to jump into the shower and get my day started. My store is being built and I'm meeting with the branding and marketing people who will help me drive traffic to my store. Teboho is leading this meeting and the branding part of the shop because...
Ona is getting dressed and ready for the day while I'm dressing Mohale up and getting him ready for the day. They are meeting up with Maboko and his boys for a play date. The boys are quite close and it's exciting to see Mohale's personality grow and come out more. He is such a little Ona and I feel like he took nothing from my personality traits. Lol. "Baby", I say to Ona. "Yes, love?" "I'm worried about Letlali." He is quiet. "We can't underestimate...
Today, I'm meeting up with Oluremi at a stunning restaurant owned by Maboko – yes, my hubby is simply a business genius. The restaurant is called Rooftop. It's literally on a roof, but it's such a vibe. It has four floors and each floor is outdoors with a sunroof covering it to protect you from the sun. When you look at the building driving along the road, it looks like a staircase leading to the roof. This place is beautiful and...
We are halfway to the end of our story, and we want to celebrate with you. Thank you for keeping your eyes and imagination committed to this blog. I write for your entertainment and I can only hope that I do not disappoint. I was once asked why I love writing so much content. My truth is that I believe that with more local and/or relatable content, South Africans will read. These blogs have proven that. Most posts average 25 – 30...
