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...
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...
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...
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...
I'm finally in Tholoana Kingdom. The church settled me in a stunning four-bedroom duplex in a very nice and secured neighbourhood. I have my Ferrari here as well as my Bentley and my Maserati MUV. The Maserati is actually the only four-door vehicle that I have. The church definitely lived up to their promise and I definitely do feel like Maphuthi Ngwenya again. I have an office job at the government offices of this country. I'm actually in a very...
I've spent my day today in the community and within the schools. I've been collecting information for Mofomahadi and Morena. I've been talking to people and getting a feel of their agenda for the next few months. I finish these visits and connects at about 1pm. I make my way to the royal house afterwards and I start the write up of my findings. I sit in the office I used to use as the guest wing manager. It takes...
I like our new apartment. It's a two-bedroom spacious apartment, but it's fancier than the rooms we used to live in when we were living in Soweto. I can just see that Keith is struggling! He's used to big spaces. He is used to the mansion he stayed in with his wife. He barely enjoyed the three-bedroom simplex we've just moved from. He only drives SUV vehicles. I'd like to console him that our situation is not all that...
My foot is healing quite well. Senzi has gone back to work. He has been on leave for a month helping me to get back into shape. Now, I just use a moonboot to move around, but I’m able to do quite a bit around the house - enough to even be on my own while he heads back to work. My mom has been sleeping over and keeping me company. I won’t lie, I love having her around. She has...
Wandisa has been discharged from hospital. She and Senzi are back at their place and have moved into the guest bedroom downstairs because Wandisa cannot make it up the stairs for now. I was here all weekend, with their permission of course, washing their curtains, linen and laundry. I actually emptied their closets and washed their clothes. There's no telling what Laura and that Julia girl did while they had access to this place. I also cleaned the house...
We've got into a good routine. My daughter is happy. My son is growing and he's talking a lot more. I was worried about Tshenolo a bit. I even considered taking him to therapy. He just became a quiet child that is difficult to read. He realised that speaking about his father made Mosetsana sad and me angry. So he stopped. But I could tell that he misses his dad. To me, that meant I protected him from the...
