Today, the Maphumulo family is coming over to make right what the Twalas did wrong by paying lobola for me. Now that Senzi’s surname has officially changed, we can proceed with our traditional part of the wedding. I’m most surprised by how open-minded Senzi is to cultural practices. He is a church boy through and through - hell, a whole senior pastor. There’s a part of me that’s also not shocked because every time I’ve had to tell him about...
Schools are now on midterm break. Wandi and Rena decided that Rena and Moloko will be going to visit Wandi for the week. Wandi phoned me then Rena nagged me. When I told Khotso, he laughed. Then they mentioned that Senzi is flying again, so he will be around for about two days then be on the road. He’s excited to see them, but he’s even more excited that they’ll be keeping Wandi busy while he’s away. “What about your studies?...
I orgasm for the seventh time this morning. Ntuthuko Maphumulo definitely knows how to look after a woman… I can see how he made all of these kids that he has all over the place. We are leaving the lodge today and we have to be checked out by 10am. It’s 6am now and we barely slept. We just started having sex the night of Morafe’s wedding and we only come out for food and to use the toilet. Everyone left...
I fell asleep on Thabang’s chest. It was the only way he could calm me down. I couldn’t even breathe last night. Mmaletuka has honestly lost me as a sister, and I will NOT drop the charges. She will rot in jail! And I’m not taking any of her kids to raise them. My mother is upset with me. She says I cannot get married with my sister behind bars. But my sister attacked me in front of everyone and she said...
We are at Morafe’s house. Morafe is fighting with her sister, so we are only going to her home tomorrow - a day before the actual wedding. Her mother is upset about it, but thina we are more than enjoying being reunited again. And Morafe’s house is NICE! When Senzi came to drop Wandi off, he took Keith back to his father’s house with him. He was here with that shady brother of his. He better not corrupt my man. Please! Wandi’s mom came...
Senzi and I are leaving KZN today. My mom let us use her Maserati to travel. It’s so comfortable and we both enjoy it so much. Bab’Khotso said Senzi and I should keep the car and that he will buy another car for my mother. I actually looked at Senzi and told him to take notes. That’s what a husband does. He just laughed. We leave Mtubatuba at 6am because I want to go to Gateway in Durban first. I want...
Khotso, Moloko and Rena have unofficially moved into my house. I don’t mind at all, if I’m being honest. I know things are weird between them and Thabi because Rena keeps showing Thabi flames and Thabi is upset that Khotso does not call Rena to order. What I appreciate about them all being here is that Rena actually acknowledges me as the mother in this house. She has her ways, but she listens to me. Like last week… I’m trying...
Thabang and I are on our way to KZN for the welcoming of Senzi. I left my kids at home with my mom and Meme. I told my mother that men were not allowed in my house and that her prostitution business is closed for the weekend. I promised her groceries for the month, and to cover her bills for this month then also give her some pocket money. She happily agreed. I was a bit nervous that she would...
Keith and I are in Tholoana Kingdom. Senzi’s biological father is doing some sort of ritual for Senzi today. Senzi will be accepting the Maphumulo surname and divorcing the Twala surname. That’s how Wandi explained it to us. This has been quite the time for Wandi and Senzi. But Wandi says that since Senzi’s biological father extended the olive branch to him, he has been a lot more at peace. And I’m happy for him. He needs this and he...
So, someone gave Nandi and Reahile mine and Senzi's number. We were phoned at 03:30am to be told they are on their way to pick us up. Senzi and I begrudgingly got up and got ready for the day. My mom and Bab'Khotso woke up to help us get ready. They were laughing at how tired we were mostly though. At 03:45am, the gate phoned us and asked us if we know who these people are and that we should...
