"Hello Mrs Mohale", I hear Khotso say as I dress up and get ready for the day."Hey you", I say to him.He kisses me.I kiss him back."You look nice. Where are you going?" He says to me.I'm honestly just wearing jeans and a t-shirt. Nothing special."I have to face my father, my love. Kea hhaye to talk to my parents." I say.His face drops.He sits on the edge of the bed and looks at me. We are still at Shaka's...

We are all at the royal house today. Khotso is getting married tomorrow and the guys decided that they want to throw him a Bachelor party. We are not really acquainted with Remo yet. We obviously have met her and we think she's awesome, but she is not as open with us as yet. So, we've gate-crashed the bachelor party to make sure that there will be no strippers.We also decided to bring gifts and shower the newlyweds with gifts...
I'm already at the office pushing work like a drug dealer. My door stays closed at all times because I genuinely do not have time to waste. Ona wants me to knock off by 5pm like I'm some entry level employee in my own office just because he wants me to be in flat shoes doing homework with the kids then having sex with him. The 7am - 5pm hours are my time to be me, Rethabile Mohale, and actually...
Zama's membeso goes really well. But I'm really tired."Fifi, go sleep. I'll cover for you. You've been running around everywhere." Tlali says to me."I'm really tired. But so is everyone else. If we all work together, we will finish earlier." I say."Honestly, if I were not the makoti, I'd have gone to a hotel and actually slept." She says.We both giggle.Mme Onica and her squad were so helpful. But unfortunately, they had to leave early this morning because someone’s husband...
"Ntombi! Banathi! Mnqobi!" I yell for these kids to come down the stairs. We are already late and now I'm the one who was left to wrap the birthday gifts because we need to rush.I like having Ntombi around. I feel like the only human beings that I push out are boys. So, having a daughter is so much fun for me. She enjoys the fact that I'm her personal hair stylist.They come running down the stairs. They are finally...
We are at the Nthatisi Facility for children with special needs today. It is Pelo's birthday and we are here to throw a party of note. We would've invited the gang, but the kids are meeting Pelo for the first time today and we thought we'd not overwhelm the situation. Lefatselabarena is particularly excited to have an older sister.The Facility let us have our party. We've asked for privacy at the facility's restaurant, but we brought food, cake and party...
It is 4am and he is not in bed. He's probably in the bar. His drinking has shot up since he found out about that thing we no longer have to speak about anymore.I wear a gown over my lacey night dress then go and find him. I know that he is somewhere in this house.I start at the bar. He is not in here. I go to his second favourite place in this house… the patio. He is sitting...
"Mrs Mohale… Mofomahadi… good morning", I hear a voice say. I know it's Ona, but I'm tired."What do you want?" I ask him.He pulls the blankets off my body and a cold chill breezes over my body."Ona? Keng?" I'm actually quite irritated."I want us to go out for breakfast together. Please?" He says."What time is it?""6am?""What breakfast restaurant is open 6am?""You clearly forget who you are married to. I make things happen. Please just come with me. We have thirty...
Tiisetso never came back for the rest of the mourning week, so Tebza did everything herself. It was the worst blow for her two days after her mom passed away. Her dad was sitting on a chair listening to the priest's sermon with the rest of us. He dozed off into sleep and just never woke up. Tiisetso has not been here for any of it. Everyone but Tebza has phoned her to come and bury her parents, but zero.Now,...
