I went into the bathroom and came back after a few


minutes
Fiks: and?
Me: I am afraid
Fiks: want me to check for you?
I nodded
He went in and came out holding the pregnancy test.
His face didn't say much
Me: and?
Fiks:it's positive
I sat on the small bed and buried my head in my
hands, i felt Lefika's hand touch my neck
Me:what do we do?
Fiks:what's done is done babe we can't change it
Me:my parents are going to kill me, am still at school
and you are still at school,what are we going to do
with a baby?
Fiks:il find work after I finish writing
Me:eish
Fiks:babe by the time the baby is here I'd be at school
getting allowance,il send you 700 every month
I stood up and put on my dress
Me:I feel so stupid,i am responsible for ruining my
own life
Fiks:Babe please don't say that
Me:(putting on my shoes)am so scared
I took my jersey,it was a bit dark outside
Me:ga o mpoledise?
He stood up and put on his jacket,he pulled me
towards him and kissed my forehead.
Fiks:we are in this together okay
Me:i love you
Fiks:i love you more
He walked me halfway home,i got in the yard by the
fence since the gates where locked.I watched him
vanish in the dark,it was a bit chilly,winter was
around the corner.I knocked once and my little sister
opened the window,i got in took off my dress and got
in bed.
Ame:So how did it go?
Me:i will tell you in the morning
Ame:you know if you are pregnant dad is going to kill
you
Me:then he will have to kill me
Ame:(shouting)what?
Me:shhh you will wake them up
Ame:you know when Nono was pregnant she did an
abortion and she didn't die,i heard she bought the
pills from some Indian guy on Facebook
Me:am not having an abortion
Ame:are you crazy
Me:i am not going to kill this baby I don't care what
anyone says
Ame:ijoo I tried to help
We kept quiet until we both fell asleep,we woke up to
my dad banging on the door.
I opened my eyes and checked the time,it was
10:15,we overslept like always.I wore my gown and
opened the door
Dad:you guys who makes tea for us when you sleep
till this late?
Me:sorry dad
I walked into the kitchen then ran to the
bathroom,the smell of eggs made me wanna puke.I
washed my face and looked in the mirror.
Me:(to myself)Damn Phatsimo what have you got
yourself into
The door opened and my mum got in
Mum:are you okay?
Me:yeah why?
Me:can I ask you a personal question?
Me:uhuhh!!
Mum:are you pregnant?
Me:(pretending to laugh)why do you say that?
Mum:i am a mother I know this things
Tears gathered in my eyes and I shook my head.
Me:yes
EPISODE 2
She closed the door and locked it
Mum:(whispering)what? I thought I was imagining
things,who is responsible for this?
Me:Lefika
She kept quiet for a few seconds
Me:(crying)I am sorry mama
She sat on the toilet and looked at me
Mum:how far?
Me:4 months now
Mum:kana I thought I imagined things,did you think
about your future
Me:am sorry mama
Mum:don't tell anyone yet I will handle your father
She opened the door and walked out,i went back to
the bedroom am closed the door crying my eyes out.
During dinner my dad kept looking at me and I looked
down
Dad:so has the boy told his parents?
Me:(ashamed)not yet
Dad:i hope this will be a lesson to every girl who has
sex at an early age,that boy is young too what did
you think you were doing?
I looked down,Ame held on to my hand tightly
Dad:(To Ame)I hope you are learning something
Ame:yes dad
Monday morning I put on a Jersey and school blazer
trying hard to hide my stomach,i felt like everyone
could see it.I meet my best friend by the gate,Lefika
was walking infront of me
Leah:and then why are you not walking together
today?
Me:ijoo mma I don't know
We walked to class,during break time I went to
Lefika's class
Me:can we talk
Lefika:(to his friends)you see
They all laughed
Me:what was that about?
Fiks:told them you can't get enough of me
Me:(smiling)I told my parents
Fiks:(furious)did you mention my name?
Me:(confused)obviously
Fiks:(angry)are you stupid?
Me:excuse me
Fiks:if your dad tells my dad before I do he is going to
kill me,you should have waited until I told him
Me:sorry I wasn't thinking
Fiks:that's your problem Phatsimo you never think
Me:excuse me!
He left me standing and went back to his
seat,everyone was looking at me like I was an idiot,i
walked back to my class,met Leah on the way
panting
Me:and then,you almost bumped into me
Leah:the whole school knows that you are pregnant
Me:what?
I looked around and everyone was starring at me,i
hurried to the class and sat down.Everyone was still
staring and whispering.
Leah:did you tell anyone apart from me
Me:no
Leah:well if your mum noticed it I quess everyone
can too.
Me:you didn't happen to tell anyone did you?
Leah:are you kidding me?
Me:sorry,you know everyone at Fiks class was
starring at us recently like they knew something I
didn't
Leah:tsalame I will always be there for you no matter
what
Me:well with you and Fiks support I can make it to

Leah:ijoo Fifi is going to have a blast now that you
will be leaving Fiks all alone here
Me:i trust him
EPISODE 3
After school I went to Fiks class but he was not
there,finally I went home.I tried his number but it
was off.Later in the evening he sent me am SMS."HEY
PLEASE CHANGE YOUR STORY TELL YOUR PARENTS
AM NOT THE FATHER, MY DAD JUST PROMISED ME 10
K IF I DON'T GET IN ANY TROUBLE UNTIL I WRITE MY
EXAMS,THINK ABOUT WHAT WE WOULD BUY FOR THE
BABY"
Ijoo how was I going to lie to my parents about such a
big thing,they would think am a slut.
After watching Generations I called my mum to the
side
Me:mama when are you going to Lefika's parents?
Mum:your uncle's are going this Saturday
I kept quiet and looked down
Mum:what?
Me:i lied to you
Mum:about what?
Me:i don't know who the father is
Mum:(furious)have you ever heard about HIV?
I looked down
Mum:go to your room before I slap you,you wanted
us to look like idiots mxm.
The next morning I woke up early before everyone
and went to school,I didn't see Lefika all day.After
school I walked home alone,his phone was off.I found
everyone tense at home,i took my food and ate in the
bedroom,Ame walked in
Me:how was your day?
Me:aah just a normal school day wena?
Me:apart from everyone starring at me am fine
Ame:and Fiks ene?
Me:i haven't seen him all day,i guess they are reading

Ame:mmh
My phone ran
Me:hey babe
Fiks:how are you?
Me:just missing you
Fiks:sorry was buisy with something
Me:(joking)are you ashamed to be seen with the
pregnant girl
Fiks:babe truth is people might tell my dad about you

Me:yeah you are right,i would keep my distance at
school
Fiks:thanks babe did you convince your parents?
Me:yeah ebile they are not talking to me
Fiks:its for our baby don't worry,got to go
Me:i love you
I realised he hung up before he could say I love you

Ame:why are mum and dad mad at you?
Me:i told them I don't know who the father of the
baby is
Ame:what?
Me:Am doing it for the baby you won't understand
Ame:make me understand
Me:one day when you are older.
I took a bath and did my homework.My mom woke
me up early
Mum:today you are going to register the pregnancy
Me:i have a test today
Mum:it doesn't matter you are going to school for
the last time today
I dragged myself to the bathroom,after breakfast we
went to the clinic,we registered then we went to
school.The principal decided that I would return the
following year and start my form 4 all over.
Mama:hey I hope you learn something,next year
when your peers go to form 5 you will be repeating
form 4
Me:i know mama

EPISODE 4
I stayed home the whole day watching TV and eating.
Mum:you should be reading what you learn from
school so that next year you be ahead of everyone.
I dragged my feet to the bedroom and slept,an hour
later someone knocked
Me:get in
Leah walked in,we hugged
Me:so how is school?
Leah:the whole 4 months you have been away have
been the longest 4 months of my life
Me:is that why you haven't come to see me all this
time
Leah:ijoo you stay far atleast we talk on Facebook
Me:yeah I haven't see Fiks in a long time too ka ebile

Me:what are you talking about?
Leah:(stuttering)aah you you,its nothing
Me:no its something tell me
Leah:you are not going to like it
Me:just tell me
Leah:Fiks is now dating Fifi
I kept quiet for a few seconds
Me:can you please leave
Leah:(confused)what?
Me:He warned me you would say something like
that,i thought you are my friend Leah get out
Leah:uhu so you are going to believe him over me?
Me:(attitude)leave
Leah:okay let me just tell you anyway,Fiks is telling
everyone that its not his baby that you cheated o
him with some guy who stays ko Gaborone that's
why your parents haven't got to his parents
She took her bag and left,i started crying.As much as
I wanted to believe Fiks how did Leah know that my
parents haven't gone to Fiks parents.I called him
Me:is it true?
Fiks:true what?
Me:o jola le Fifi
Fiks:did your little friend tell you that?
Me:no someone else told me and how did people
know my parents haven't gone to your parents
Fiks:babe I only told my friends about our plan maybe
they told some other people that's how your source
found out
Me:mxm I trust you babe,i knew she was lying,girls
hate to see each other happy
Fiks:never listen to rumours okay babe,i love you
Me:i love you too
I hung up and laid on the bed,the thought of Leah
disgusted me.I felt a slight pain in my abdomen.I
stood up and walked around the house,the pains got
worse
Me:(screaming)mama
She came running
Me:mama the baby is coming
Mum:okay keep standing don't seat down am getting
your dad,they helped me to the car,the pains where
something else.We arrived at the hospital and the
nurse pushed me to the maternity Ward,they helped
me take off my clothes
Nurse:did your water break
I looked at my mum
Me:no
Nurse:we have a long way to go
Soon as she left my water broke and the pains got
worse
Me:mama an dying(holding to her hand)
The nurse came back and checked me
Nurse:the baby is coming

EPISODE 5
Nurse:okay start pushing
I opened my legs more wider and started pushing
Nurse:one last push
I pushed harder and I heard a baby crying,the pain
went away
Nurse:(holding the baby)its a girl and she is so big
They cut the cord and wrapped her in a receiver and
gave her to me.She was indeed big
Nurse:what's her name?
Me:Ciara
She took her away from me as they stitched me up.I
sent Fiks an SMS that I gave birth to a baby girl and
her name was Ciara so he should name her a
setswana name,he didn't reply.We got released the
next day,his number was still off.
A week turned into months without hearing from
him,he had blocked me on Facebook and Watsapp.I
created a fake Facebook account and went through
his timeline.Wow so Leah was not lying,he was
dating Fifi,i looked at their pictures and how he called
her Bae and Wifey.I looked at Ciara who was sleeping
next to me,who was a copy of her father and my
heart broke into pieces,what had happened to the 10
k coz it had been a month since they wrote their
examz.I sent him a friend request and he accepted.I
commented on one of his photos "wow I saw a little
baby girl at the clinic maloba who looks exactly like
you"
He replied to my inbox
Fiks:do we know each other,send me your photo
I stole a few pictures from this hot Zulu girl who was
my friend and sent him
Fiks:wow you are so pretty
Me:thanks you really look like that little baby
Fiks:really but I don't have a baby,where do you stay?
Me:right now am in Phikwe
Fiks:when are you coming to Maun?
Me:in a week or two
Fiks:can we meet
Me:sure why not
I logged out and let out a small smile,lol so he was
telling people he didn't have a child,i felt so stupid for
believing everything he told me.I logged into my real
account and posted a photo of Ciara'hand and wrote
"sometimes when someone thinks ba go sota go
itshota bone,my baby is all grown up now,can't wait
to go back to school and make her proud"
Leah was the first to comment "can I come see her?"
I replied yes
I felt so bad about how I treated her the last time.She
came a week before the schools re opened.She filled
me in on the latest and how Fiks and Fifi are doing,to
be honest I really didn't care,the last thing on my
mind was boys and sex,i just wanted to make my
parents and daughter proud.While we were talking I
received a call
Me:hello
Voice:hi can you please sent me photos of her ka
Watsapp
Me:who is this?
Voice:Ke Lefika
Me:yeses o njela le makapi waitse Lefika wa ntholela
were have you been all this time?

Episode 6

Lefika:will you send or not?


Me:not
Lefika:mxm she is my daughter too you know
Me:you know what am not gonna waste my energy
on you
I hung up and blocked his number.
Leah:how dare he? I think its about time you told
your parents what really happened.
Me:yeah now I know the truth and am so sorry I ever
doubted you
Leah:(laughing)they say love is blind,now lets just
focus on school no boys
Me:am so done with those
She left right after Cici slept,i walked her to the gate
then went back to the house.My mum was cooking,i
went into the kitchen
Me:mum I want to tell you something
Mum:mmmh
Me:Lefika is Cici's father,he made up some story that
his dad would kill him if he found out he is the father
that's why I changed my story,i thought I was helping
him only (crying) only to find out he was playing me.
My mum hugged me as I cried my heart out,the only
guy I have ever been with has betrayed me,someone
I loved whole hearted.Dad walked in
Mum:(to me)go check on Cici
I went and stood behind the door,i wanted to hear
what my dad would say
Mum:you were right all along,that boy tricked her
Dad:now it's time we went to see his parents
Mum:can't we just raise her and leave them alone
Dad:we are only doing what's right,whether thy take
responsibility or not its up to them,i will go call my
brothers so we go there early in the morning.
I slept with a heavy heart that night,i wondered what
Lefika would say,the last thing I needed was
drama.The next day I bathed Cici and went with my
parents to Lefika's.His father welcome us and we sat
down
L's dad:People what brings you bye in this
morning,you are scaring me
Uncle:we should have come months back,my name is
Leatile Mmuso,this is my niece Phatsimo and that's
her daughter Ciara Pelo Modise,that's my sister who
is Phatsimo's mother and that's her father.
Lefika's mum walked in the room and greeted us and
sat down.
Uncle:as I have already said we should have come
here months back when Phatsi was still pregnant
L's mum:why?
Uncle:because she is holding right there your son's
child.
L's mum:if wat you are saying is true you would have
come months back,now that your daughter doesn't
know the father of her child you are pinning it on my
son.
L's dad:Mma Mmuso wait,lets hear them out
L's mum:no,i know this kind of girls,they go around
sleeping with everyone them blame innocent boys
for their pregnancies.Not my son go blame someone
else,why would my son choose a daughter of a
farmer among all this girls,poor people.

Episode 7
L's dad:Mma Mmuso how do you say those things
about someone's child,i think we should call Lefika
and hear what he has to say.
Lefika's mum stood up and went outside to Lefika's
room,they came back after a few minute.Lefika sat
across me and faced down,i covered Cici's face who
was sleeping,i did not want him to see my daughter.
L's dad:Lefika
Lefika:Rra
L's dad:do you know this girl
Lefika:yes she went to school with me
L's dad:is that how you know her?
Lefika:yes
L's dad:Are you sure?
Lefika:yes
L's mum:you heard him,he doesn't know this girl how
could the baby be his
L's dad:well then I will pay for a DNA test on this
baby.
Lefika's face turned red,he stood up and faced his
dad
Lefika:why?
L's dad:i just want to make sure that we are not
abandoning our own flesh and blood,there is nothing
wrong with that is there?
L's mum:why are you doing this he said he doesn't
know this girl
L's dad:well then there is no problem here I there
Me:no there is no problem
L's dad:Lefika?
Lefika:(shaking) I lied,she used to be my
girlfriend,maybe that baby is mine
L's dad:i thought you said she was only your
schoolmate?
He kept quiet,everyone kept quiet
L's dad:So tell me Lefika,for the last time I am going
to ask you if this is your child.
He kept quiet
L's dad:(angry)Lefika
Lefika:yes it is my baby
L's mum:Rra Mmuso why are you forcing my son to
admit to something he didn't do
L's dad:where you there? Bagolo its settled that baby
is Lefika's child and starting today I will make sure he
supports that baby.
We left and went home,i was a bit happy that my
child will get to know her father even if he is not a
present father.I received an SMS from an unknown
number "You think using that baby to get us to get
back together will work think again,i don't want you
or your stupid ugly baby"
I looked at Ciara and trooped a tear,how can he call
my baby ugly,i didn't care what he said but calling my
child ugly,mxm,especially when she looked so much
like him.I didn't reply the text.
I went to school the next week, months and a year
passed without Lefika coming to see his child, only
his father would send money for the diapers and milk
and checked up on her. I did well at school, finished
my school and did well in my BGCSE. All I wanted was
give my daughter the best life I never had. My mum
passed away due to Diabetes and was forced to take
care of Cici on my own since my dad had moved to
the cattle post.
It had been almost 5 years since I saw Lefika, Cici
called my father dad.

Episode 8
I woke up at 5,i switched on the light,she was
peacefully sleeping hugging her Teddy bear.She has
cried to sleep wearing her new leggings the previous
night.I tiptoed to the stove and put the kettle on,i
ironed her school uniform which had not dried up the
previous day because i washed it late from work.I
packed her lunch box only to realise the apples were
finished,the teachers had advised me to pack her a
fruit everyday.After bathing i woke her up,she rubber
her eyes and yawned.She had no front teeth,i
couldn't help but laugh a little.I realised her hairstyle
was now old,the ribbons had fell.
Cici:mommy is it Friday today?
Me:yes
Cici:tomorrow you are not working right?
Me:(sad)baby i have to
She looked sad,she got in the bath and i bathed
her,she put on the uniform and shoes and had corn
flakes for breakfast.
We walked to her school which was not far
Cici:mama did they pay you?
Me:am getting paid tidy
Cici:yey,can we have chicken today?
Me:i will take you out to KFC then buy you ice cream
Cici:(happy)yey mama i love you,see you later
She waved at me as she entered the school gate,i
went to the bus stop,i had a morning test that day.I
arrived a few minutes late,thank God the test hadn't
begun.After test i went to my sociology class.3
o'clock i was at my work,i worked in a bar but
knocked off at 5 just in time to pick Ciara from
school,i worked late on Saturdays.My boss called me
into his office
Boss:can you please work tonight i know its short
notice but Kaone can't be in tonight she called in sick
Me:okay it helps with the tips,il call my neighbour to
pick up Ciara.
Boss:thanks you will get your day off tomorrow.
I called my neighbour Katso to pick up Cici and sleep
with her cause i was working late.I imagined how sad
she was going to be but i had to work for both of us
to survive,i had to pay rent,buy food and clothes for
her since Lefika's dad took care of the school fees
and mopako.
I knocked off at 23:30 it was a buisy night,my boss
dropped me off,i switched on the lights and fell on
the bed.Woke up the next day around 7 to Cici
banging on the door,i opened and she got in
Me:my baby
She kept quiet
Me:guess who is not going to work today
She looked at me
Me:am sorry about yesterday,we will go to KFC today
She smiled a little
Cici:mummy
Me:mmh
Cici:sometimes i wish dad was around then you wont
have to work hard
I kissed her forehead
Me:sometimes a girl's got to act like a man baby,life
is not an easy road
Cici:so can i wear my new dress?

Episode 9
We bathed then we took a combi to the mall,i bought
her some clothes then we went to KFC,we ordered
then sat by the window waiting for our order.
Cici:mummy can we take a selfie
Me:(taking out my phone)sure
We took a few selfies then our order came,we ate
Cici:(mouthful) mummy can we have milkshakes too?
Me:mmh
Something caught my eye at the door,the figure was
tall and manly,he waved at me,God i must have been
starring at him for long,he came to our table
Man:got something on me?
Me:no am sorry for starring that long
Man:(smiling)its a compliment having a beautiful
woman stare at you for that long
Me:(shy)really?
Man:(extending his hand)I am Calvin
Me:Phatsimo and this is my daughter Ciara
Calvin:you guys look alike
Me:really?
Calvin:straight,can i have your number?
Me:mmh you get straight to the point
Calvin:please
We exchanged numbers then he went to order his
meal,he waved at us as he left,we waved back
Cici:mummy is he going to be your boyfriend
Me:(laughing) he is cute right
Cici:yeah
Me:i hope so baby
We finished our meal then i met Calvin outside,he
was in a hurry
Me:woooo slow down
Calvin:do you have a boyfriend?
Me:why?
Calvin:okay i thought if i dont say this now maybe i
will never get the chance,i liked you when i saw you
starring at me earlier,can i say it was love at first
sight?
I just smiled at him not saying a word,only i realized
Cici was starring at me
Me:can i text you later
Calvin:can i take you home
We both laughed,we got in his car and he drove us
home,when we got there Cici said goodbye and went
to the house.He held my hand
Calvin:am i moving fast?
Me:i havent been in a relationship since my first
relationship
Calvin:how did it end?
Me:i don't know,he left me pregnant and dumped me
without telling me
Calvin:that's sad,a woman needs her man most when
she is pregnant
Me:talking from experience?
Calvin:i don't have a child if thats what you are asking
but i would like to have a mini me running around one
day
Me:so do you have a girlfriend?
Calvin:right now i don't
Me:well i don't have a boyfriend either
He surprisingly kissed my lips,it had been a long time
since i kissed anyone,i didn't stop him.I kissed him
back,we kissed for a few minutes then he let go.
Calvin:i just like you
Me:okay i love you too,maybe this love at first sight
things are real
Calvin:when am i going to see you again?
Me:tonight?
Calvin:my place or yours?
Me:mine
Calvin:so what should i buy to impress Ciara?
Me:pizza or ice cream

We said goodbye and i went into the yard.I cleaned
the house while Cici played outside,it was a one room
but nicely packed.Around 7 Calvin arrived,je bought
Cici pizza and ice cream,we ate then sat outside while
Cici watched TV.
Me:do you think we are rushing things?

Me:we have been dating for a week
Cal:so i can't help you because we have been dating
for a week,you know what its cool,you will tell me
when you need my help,sometimes i think its pride
not about independence.
He opened the door for me and we got inside the
house.

We got in the house,it was dark,he switched on the
lights and everyone shouted "surprise".I laughed as i
looked at him acting surprised.
Cal:you guys,thank you i didn't expect this
His mum hugged him

Cal:i didnt know we were having a surprise party,we

I heard him drive off,i got off bed and wore his shirt
and took a tour around the house,it was clean but
not that much,he had dirty clothes in the bathroom.I
washed then and cleaned the house,after drying up i
ironed them for him and put then nicely.Around 12 i
cooked him some pasta and boiled chicken with soup
and dished up then put them in the microwave,i ate
mine and left.I used the 200 to buy vegetables and
meat at my house.I spent the whole day reading,my
phone was on silent.Found 2 missed calls from Calvin
and Ame.I called Ame and spoke to Ciara,she was so
excited about being with dad,the call was cut short
because i had run out of airtime.I did Cal a callback
and he called after a few minutes.
Me:hey
Cal:i love you
Me:i love you more,ne o reng i saw your missed calls
Cal:just wanted to hear that sexy voice

Episode 15
Me:(angry)what? When?
Ame:just a few minutes back,he came with his
mother,they said you told them to
Me:mxm will talk to you in a few
I hung up and checked Lefika's number.The nerve of
him and his mother to take my child,did they forget
how they called me names and wanted nothing to do
with me and my child.I went outside and borrowed a
neighbour's phone,i called him and he answered
Lefika:hello
Me:(angry)bring my child back to my dad before i call
the police
Lefika:hey this is my child too,go ahead call them
He dropped the call,mxm i was beyond angry,i swear
if i didn't have a test i would take the next bus to
Maun and teach him a lesson.I called the police and
explained what Ame had told me,i never told Lefika
to go get Ciara,my baby didn't know him or his
mother,the only person she knew was Lefika's
dad,may his soul rest in peace.What Lefika did was
kidnapping.The police officer said he will inform the
ones at Maun and will get back to me before lunch.
I bathed and went to write my exam,i thank God it
was something i studied hard for or else i would have
failed because my mind was not with me,i kept
thinking about my child,what were they telling
him,mxm the thought made me sick to my
stomach.After the exam i walked home,the police
still haven't called.I got home a little late and got into
bed.I didn't have an exam in another 2 days so i
packed my bag and went to my boss,i borrowed 700
pula and went to the bus rank,i called Cal.
Me:ke ya Maun
Cal:what?
Me:Lefika took my baby
Cal:am sorry,what about the exam?
Me:il be back Thursday morning
Cal:don't cry much okay i love you
Me: i love j more
I got in the bus, i received an SMS,Calvin had e wallet
me 1000 pula. Shem its like he knew how much i
could use the extra cash. I arrived in the morning, i
went straight to Lefika's place, there were a few
people around, i greeted them and got in the house, i
found Lefika's mother with some relatives, i greeted
them and sat down
Me: I've come to take my child
L's mum: she is still sleeping
Lefika came in holding Ciara, when she saw me she
started crying.I got her from him
Me:never ever come close to my child you hear me
Everyone was looking at me
Me:you have never contributed a single cent to help
your child and your mother insulted me infront of
everyone calling me all names so please if you don't
want trouble stay far from my child.I walked to the
door and left.No one said anything.I got home and
Cici started telling me how she never wanted to go
back there.
Episode 16
I found my Ame alone,she hugged me,my lil sister
was so grown up bathong,at 17 she looked so grown
up and too mature for her age.
Ame:hee how did you get her back?
Me:i don't joke around with people i don't like
We made breakfast then later went to the cattle post
where my dad was.We came back late,found Lefika's
car packed in our yard.
Me:what do you want here?
Lefika:I've come to get my child and i don't like how

Me:hey did you like how she spoke to me years

Lefika:you know i can take you to court
Me:look at my face,do i look like i care,ftshek get out

him and closed my eyes as i felt his dick become hard.
Cal:(breathing heavily)babe

Ciara to my friend's house because i had no one to
take care of her.After my exam i went to work.We

I kissed his tummy going down to his D and took it all
in my mouth,i almost puked.He started roaring like a
mad Lion.After a few minutes i took a condom from
his wallet and put it on him and directed in my
treasure.I rode him like i was paid to,he roared and
pressed me harder on him.
Cal:Shh babe Cici is sleeping
He turned me over and took it from behind,Gawd i
can't even explain how i felt.After a few minutes he
went faster and stopped.
Cal:babe the mma o monate ekare ke ka paka kuku ee
We laughed so hard,he kissed my lower lip
Cal:i have never lived someone like i do you
Me:me too
Cal:one day am gonna marry you
Me:am waiting for that day
We slept and woke up the next day,we had our quite
morning glory before he went to work.I made him
bathing water and ironed his clothes while he had
breakfast.After he left i went back to sleep.Woke up
late around 10,i bathed Cici and went for my exam.I
left her with my friend again
After the exam i went to work,knocked off around
8,Cal picked me up with Cici and we went to his place.
I made us something to eat and took a long
shower.After we cuddled in the sofa and watched TV.
Cici:mama why don't we move here?
Cal:yeah mama why don't you move here
Cici:this house is much cooler than ours and the TV is

Me:he blocked me akere
Naomi:Mma he put a picture of Ciara and wrote how
you wont allow him to see his child and that you are
not allowing Ciara to go to her grandfather's
funeral,mma the comments are bad
Me:tsalame Lefika is childish,i won't allow him to
spoil my mood,he can say all he wants to say and his
friends can insult me all they like but nothing is going
to change.
Naomi:Mma are you are living in a shack but you
won't allow him to move his daughter to a better
house
Okay that was even low for Lefika,i laughed so hard,i
think Naomi's airtime ran out because the call was
cut.Ijoo Lefika is something else.
Me:babe borrow me your phone
Cal:just don't call him with my phone
He gave me the phone,i logged into my fake
account,he was online,him and i were still talking
with the fake account but not like before because i
had refused to meet with him.I read the post and
commented "you always told me you didn't have a
child now you claim to be a father of a 5 years old
girl,that girl does you right you don't deserve to be a
father Lefika,she suffered alone and now that the
child is older you want to claim her,sis man"
20 people liked the comment,he didn't even bother
to reply me.I logged out and gave Cal his phone back.
Me:babe Lefika needs a slap
Cal:don't fight him or reply his madness he is just
looking for attention
Me:where were you years ago when i was young and
naive?
Cal:i was doing my first year chasing girls
Me:(laughing)i can't believe i once loved that lunatic
He moved me closer to him and hugged me
Cal:don't let him get to you
Me:i won't babe
He took Cici to the bedroom then we went to bed
too,i didn't sleep thinking how much i hate
Lefika,thinking about how he made me lie to my
parents.Nxa i wished something would kill him so i
can live in peace.I was not writing so i spent the next
day with Ciara at Calvin's house,we cleaned and
cooked a heavy meal,after eating we watched TV.Cal
came around 5,i gave him his food.He kisses my hand
Cal:i love you
Me:i love you
He finished eating and went to bed,he had a slight
headache.Around 7 i went to check on him,his
temperature was a bit high,i gave him Panado and
massaged his nerves.
Me:babe what's stressing you
Cal:i couldn't sleep last night thinking how much i
hated Lefika for what he said about you
Speaking of the devil he called
Me:bua
Lefika:my uncles want to see Pelo

Lefika:i still love you

Episode 19
Me:excuse me

us for Pelo's sake
I hung up before he could continue with his
nonsense,i couldn't stop laughing bo Lefika ba

me while pregnant and young,the guy who denied his
own child,the guy who just told the whole world i

Cal:what did he say?
Me:a re he still loves me
Cal:he is getting on my nerves
Me:me too,don't worry baby i want nothing to do
with him,am so over that stupid boy
Cal:i trust you
We slept,woke up a bit late the next day,he was
feeling a lot better,we had breakfast and washed his
laundry then had lunch at Nandos.Around 4 we drove
to Mochudi,i wore a nice knee length dress and
sandals,didn't want to look like a child infront of my
future in-laws LOL.We found them all home,the men
were watching soccer while Calvin's mum was with
her friends in the garden,we said hello to them,she
picked up Cici and kissed her cheeks,she introduced
me as her future daughter in-law
Mrs:bo mma ngwetsi yame e ntle
Woman:she is and they make a lovely couple
Mrs:they are going to make beautiful babies,just look
at this one
We went inside leaving Cici with them,i felt so
welcome,tota its every girl's dream to have loving in
laws.I watched the match with the men and made
them snacks,we left around 7
Mr:why didn't you bring the kid's clothes akere they
still on holidays
Mrs:ebile i heard she has no one to take care of her
when you at school

with this men?
Me:i just feel its too early to bring her here,it just
doesn't feel right.
Mrs:i understand,next time my girl
Cici:mama can i please stay
Me:you will visit next time nana
She frowned and hugged Cal's mum then ran to the
car,we said goodbye and left.I kept quiet on the
way,Cal and Cici were singing to some Taylor Swift
songs.
Me:can you please drop us at my place
Cal:i thought we were spending the weekend at my
place
Me:change of plans
Cal:are you angry because i told my mum Cici had no
one to stay with when you at work?

to go to church with us.After church he went to his
place.Spent the next week without seing each other
because we were both working late,Friday afternoon
i took Ciara for ice cream to celebrate my birthday,i
received a happy birthday message from Lefika,i
didn't even bother to reply him,i was serious when i
said i wanted nothing to do with him.He called
Me:hello
Lefika:happy birthday princess
Me:thank you
Lefika:can i take you guys out?
I hung up and blocked his number.I bought Cici some
snacks for school,without Lefika's dad i knew i had to
do everything for my child,ifs so funny Lefika wanted
to be present in Cici's life but he never sent a cent
towards his daughter's school fees or anything.Later
Cal picked us up and we had dinner at Masa and went
to his place,he blindfolded me.
Cici:mama don't peek
Me:i won't
Cal:okay open your eyes now
Oh God,it was so beautiful,a cake with my face on it
and some snacks and champagne.
I kissed him on the lips and Cici closed her eyes
Me:(emotional)i love you,thank you so much
Cal:aww babe don't cry
Me:(crying)no one has ever done this for me,thank
you guys
Cici:(giving me a gift)happy birthday mama
I hugged her and opened the present,it was a hand
made card and a set of ear rings.
Me:aww Cici this is so pretty
Cici:i made it specially for you
Me:you guys,i can never ask for a better daughter
Cal:(handing me a big box)here is my present but i
want you to open it in the bedroom

Cici:can we have the cake now
I cut us small slices and poured us glasses of juice
Me:babe the champagne is for later
Cal:i can't wait
They sang for me and we watched TV afterwards,Cici
fell asleep and i took her to the bedroom,I sat on Cal's
lap and kissed him
Me:tell me what's in the box?
Cal:open it
I opened the box,it was a beautiful pink and black
lingerie.
I took off my clothes and put in on,i helped him up,i
stood on my toes and kissed him,i pulled him to the
bedroom
Cal:now that's what am talking about
Me:shhh babe
He picked me up and pressed me against the wall.He
kissed my neck and cleavage.
Cal:i missed you
Me:just shut up
We made passionate love,it felt so great and too
emotional.Before i slept i knelt down and thanked
God for the life and wounderfull man.It was not
every woman who meets a nice caring man like i did.I
looked at Cal as he slept,i kissed his forehead,he
looked so cute.He opened his eyes
Cal:what are you doing to me
Me:i love you

Episode 21
A month later
I just came back from dropping Cici at school,i
noticed a car packed infront of my house,i had never
seen it before,i knocked on its window and the
person opened the window.Mxm it was Lefika
Me:what do you want?
Lefika:not even a hello
He tried to hug me but i pushed him away
Me:what do you want?
Lefika:i want my daughter
Me:do i have your daughter?
Lefika:(giving me an envelope)yes you do
Me:what's this?
Lefika:read or do you want me to read it for you?
I opened the envelope and read the papers,
Me:you are kidding me right
Lefika:(straight face)do i look like am kidding?
Me:(angry)you bastard,after all this years,you denied
Ciara infront of your parents and mine,you have
never contributed a single Thebe,after full five years
you want to take my child away from me? Who do
you think you are?
Lefika:I am Lefika Mmuso girl,that should ring a bell
Me:yes it does,you are the guy who left me while i
was young and pregnant,you are the guy who
promised me the world but failed to deliver a
village,you are the guy who called my baby
ugly,come hell or high waters you will never take my
baby away from me.
Lefika:you know if we got back together none of this
would happen.We would move into my big house and
send Cici to a fancy school,i can even buy you a car.
I looked at him as he said all those things and
laughed,wow he was still the same Lefika who liked
to Bragg about how rich they were,he hasn't grown
even a little.Now i wonder how i kept up with all that
when we were dating,sies i felt like throwing up.
Me:you are still the same old Lefika,you will never
change waitse,i don't need your car,house or money,i
can have all that on my own,those are things your
dad gave you Lefika,don't try to act like you worked
hard for them.I have a man who can give me all of
that if i wanted to,i don't need you,get that through
your thick head.

the word.

He said that walking to his car,i searched for
something i could hit him with,i hate Lefika with all
my heart.I picked up a stone and aimed for him but
instead it hit his window,it made small crack,he
looked at me like i had killed his mother,he came
closer,i stepped back
Lefika:you whore

Lefika:(angry)do you know how much that's gonna
cost me
Me:its always about the money for you,i don't care

He took out his phone and dialled a number..
Lefika:hello you are talking to Lefika Mmuso,my baby

We went to him,he was sitting inside the car,he rolled
down the window
Lefika:yes

Cal:(attitude)you don't but i know you
He stepped outside
Cal:she really didn't mean to smash it,i promise i will

Lefika:look man i don't want your money

Episode 23
Cal:i didn't say i want to give you my money,i just
want to repair the window my woman smashed
Aww bathong,he called me his woman,i could tell
Lefika was offended.
Lefika:look dude i have lots of money i can repair this
Cal:ao?i thought you didn't have money since you
called the police on her
His face turned red and he got in the car and drove
off,for the first time in my life i was glad the police
where taking their time.I hugged Cal
Me:you got to him
Cal:i could tell
Me:thanks babe
He picked me up and we went into the room
Cal:you welcome but i want something in return
Me:mmh tell me
He slowly unbuttoned my top and kissed my neck
Cal:how long has it been?
Me:just a week babe i was on my period
Cal:you finished?
Me:mmh yesterday
Cal:then you on your safe period
Me:no no no i don't want another baby
Cal:(kissing my neck)did i say i want one?I will pull out

Me:babe wait..(he stopped and looked into my
eyes)what if you don't pull out?
Cal:(taking out a condom in his wallet)let's do this
Me:(laughing)you crazy
We had a quicky then he left for work,i cleaned the
house and cooked lunch.I woke up around 2 to
someone shouting my name outside,i went out
Landlord:(angry)what did i tell you about the police?
Me:(confused)what are you talking about
Landlord:i want you out of my house tonight,you
brought the police here when i told you what could
happen.
It was only then that i remembered that Lefika had
called them in the morning.
Me:you can't just kick me out,i have to find a room
first
Landlord:i said i want you out tonight or else you will
find your things out when you come back from work
Mxm Lefika was slowly getting on my nerves,i went
next door to check for a room and found nothing,i
packed my stuff into boxes,later i went to pick up
Ciara from school.She helped me back our things.
Cici:mama why don't we move in with Cal?
Me:no
Cici:but we have nowhere to go
Me:we will find something
Cici:Mama are we poor now
Me:(annoyed)we were never rich
She kept q8t and packed the bags i heard sobbing
Me:am sorry
Cici:it's okay
Me:do you want us to move n with Cal?
Cici:yeah
Me:okay i will call him
I dialed his number,
Cal:am on my way there

Cal:i love you
Me:me too
He arrived with Pizza
Cici:we are moving in with you
He looked at me and i looked down
Cal:wow i have never been happier,when?
Cici:tonight,Lefika made the landlord chase us out,we
have to move as in now
He took out his phone and dialed
Cal:hey man you buisy?..i want you to help me move

Episode 24
He hung up and helped us pack the boxes,i was so
embarrassed,i wanted to move in with Cal at my own
terms not because i was desperate.His friends
arrived and loaded everything in the truck,we came
behind them in Calvin's car.They helped unload
everything and pack a few things,after we had pizza
and they left,i bathed Cici and tucked her in.
Cici:mama we are rich now right
Me:(laughing)Cici stop talking about being rich or else
people will think we are gold diggers.
Cici:Mummy Cal is a very kind man,he is rich too
Me:i know
Cici:I love him
Me:(laughing)ofcourse you do
Cici:if you don't marry him i will
Me:ijoo mma you are too talkative,goodnight
Cici:night i love you
Me:me too
I took a long hot shower after,i heard the bathroom
door open
Me:Cal
Cal:mmmh
Me:oh okay i thought it was Cici
He sat down on the toilet seat and looked at me
Cal:you have nice ass
Me:(shy)thanks
Cal:babe why didn't you tell me?
Me:i..i was embarrassed tota to be honest
Cal:i would do anything for you and Ciara,i thought
you knew that
Me:(crying)now i know,thank you so so much i don't
know what we would have done today
Cal:never be embarrassed around me,everything you
need tell me no matter how embarrassing it is
Me:i will
Cal:thank you,so are you working tomorrow?
Me:yeah
Cal:atleast i will see you everyday
I wrapped myself in a towel and hugged him,Men like
Calvin are one in a million.
Me:i love you
Cal:i love you more
Tomorrow after everyone has left i packed
everything and cleaned the house.I received a call
from court that i should come the next day with my
lawyer if i had one.Mxm Lefika.I cooked lunch and
watched TV.Later on i logged into Facebook incase
anyone posted anything about a job.I replied a few
inboxes,noticed Lefika had unblocked me,i went
through his timeline,talk about bragging about
money and cars,He did live a lavish lifestyle to be
honest,vacations ko bo Mozambique and Durban,its
so sad he lived like that when his daughter was
behind on school fees.His cover photo was a picture
of Ciara when she was only a few months old,wonder
where he got that from.mxm calling himself a father
when he didn't know if his daughter slept with a full
stomach or not,i wanted to comment something bad
but my heart didn't allow me to stoop that low.I
searched Cal's timeline,just a few photos and silly
posts.Both of them were online,o decided to change
my profile photo and added the one with Ciara when
we were at a party and put Calvin's photo as my
cover photo.Lefika reacted

Episode 25
He reacted with a heart on my profile photo and
commented "My baby is so grown up and
cute,looking like daddy"
I ignored his comment and logged out,an unknown
number called.
Me:mmh why are you calling me with private
numbers?
Lefika:because you blocked my number
Me:what do you want?
Lefika:i want my family back
Me:did i take them somewhere
Lefika:i want to see Ciara
Me:not if am still alive
Lefika:well that can be arranged
Me:(pissed)are you threatening me?
Lefika:i just want to spent the weekend with my
baby
I hung up on him,Cal made arrangements with his
lawyer friend to accompany me to court,we waited a
few minutes then Lefika arrived with his lawyer,we
sat down.
Magistrate:As you have already read in the letter Mr
Mmuso wants custody of his daughter
My lawyer:yes,we would like him to explain why
Lefika:(attitude)explain why o want my child?are you
listening to yourself?
My lawyer:Yes we want to know your sudden
interest because you have never shown any in 5
years until now.
We all looked at him
Lefika:i was young and stupid and made irrational
decisions,now am a grown up man and want to be
responsible for my daughter.
Woow,i could tell from the magistrate's face that he
believed him,he was fooling everyone but not me.
Me:(to my lawyer)can i say something
Lawyer:yes
Me:Lefika we were both young when we had Ciara,i
was 16 but i took care of her from day one,i never
neglected her,i am still struggling with her till date
but you are here claiming to be responsible,no
actions speak louder than words,you should have
stepped in when your father died,now Lefika your
child is behind with school fees,its almost winter and
she doesn't have warm clothes but you say you want
to take care of her,so tell me if the court doesn't give
you custody what are you going to do with Ciara?
He kept quiet and his lawyer stepped in
Lawyer:this doesn't have to go this far,my client just
wants his daughter that's all,he is willing to show this
court that he can be a great father.
Magistrate:is that so Mr Mmuso?
Lefika:yes
Magistrate:then i give you a month,come back with
something that will convince me to give you custody
because now i just see a boy who is in it to make the
life of this young lady miserable.(to me)I want you to
allow Lefika to take Ciara on weekends,that's a
trial,we will see if you are what you claim to be Mr
Mmuso.See you next month
Lefika gave me one of the evil smiles ever and walked
out with his head held high.I was okay with the
judge's decision.

Episode 26
Lefika came to get Ciara Friday around 5.I packed her
just a few clothes and pyjamas,am not gonna lie i
hated seing him with my baby,the baby he wanted
nothing to do with,i could tell Cici was not happy too
but her mood changed the moment she saw Lefika's
car.
Cici:Lefika is it your car?
Lefika:yeah,where do you wanna go?
Cici:can we have pizza tonight and go to the movies?
Lefika:(looking at me)anything for you princess
Cici:mummy we gonna have so much fun,see you on
Sunday,i love you
Me:(giving Lefika Cici's bag)take care of her
I kissed Cici and said goodbye.She got in the car and
waved at me.I got inside the house,Cal was waiting
for me by the door,he hugged me.
Cal:she will be back before you know it
Me:i hate him
Cal:i know but its good for Cici to know both her
parents,let her see Lefika for who he is,its all an act
he will be tired very soon.
I looked at him and smiled,he was right.He picked me
up and put me on the sofa and we watched
KUWTK.He made us supper and we ate in silence.
Cal:babe mma wa mbora
Me:sorry
Cal:wanna go out?
Me:not in the mood
Cal:okay am going to bed
Me:mmmh
He went to shower and slept,kept thinking what if he
poisones my daughter against me.I went to bed
around 10,found Cal on his phone playing candy
crush.
Me:i thought you said you were coming to sleep
Cal:got buisy with this game gape just that you were
boring me
Me:sorry
I kissed him and he pulled me to the bed,we
kissed,forgot all about Lefika.Damn did i mention
that Cal is a great kisser,his lips are so soft and
yummy like strawberry cheese cake,LOL.He took off
my clothes and kissed my stomach downwards,tota i
don't know who came up with that idea but whoever
you are thank you,this is our little heaven on earth.I
opened my legs more wider,he played with his
tongue on my clit and i almost screamed by dead
mother's name.I wanted him so badly inside but he
was taking his time.Finally i felt his D touch my
cookie,he penetrated and i reached cloud 77
haha..Incase you are woundering how big he was,he
was that big,lol yeah.He turned me around and
started pounding from behind clapping my but
cheeks,turn on,his other hand reached down and
played with my clit.Yeah women know what am
talking about.He went a little faster,mxm don't you
just hate those fart like sounds when doing doggy.He
pulled out and splashed his cum on my back,that's
when i realised we were not using a condom,no
wonder i almost peed myself.Boloto bo monate but
please don't do with everyone.He wiped me

Episode 27
I didn't want to spoil the mood so i kept quiet about
having unprotected sex,atleast we have both tested
and we were negative,nna i fear HIV and STI's more
than a baby,i would be terrified if i didn't know "Bae"
status.Woke up the next morning to Cal kissing my
back and playing with my nipples,i pretended like i
didn't notice,he slowly got ontop of me and i opened
my legs,i felt his hard D slowly enter,i gasped and
opened my eyes.
Cal:(smiling)good morning
Me:i love you
Cal:i love you more
He kissed my neck while he did the magic,bathong
there is just something about morning glory,its so
different from all sexes,it has that thing you
know..can't even explain what .He picked me up
and carried me to the bathroom,he pinned me
against the wall as hot water plashed our bodies,it
was like a scene from a romantic movie.He went fast
then withdrawed,his cum splashed on my tummy.We
showered and brushed our teeth then went back to
bed.
Cal:babe
Me:mmh
Cal:o monate
Me:(shy)haha ijaa is that why you didn't use a
condom
Cal:yeah i wanted to know how it tastes like without
a condom.
We both laughed
Me:mmh how was it
Cal:out of 10 it was 12
Me:(laughing)really,well for me it was a 15
Cal:mmh ne ke iphelleditse kana
Me:haha i could tell
Cal:i felt like crying and screaming telling the whole
world how sweet you are
Me:haha stupid,scream then
Cal:(screaming)hle banna kuku ya ga babe e monate
We laughed so hard,it was the best day so far,he
made me breakfast in bed,after we cuddled and
watched movies on his laptop.Got a call from a
number

He have the phone to Cici and we said goodbye
Cal:don't let him spoil our day babe
Me:a phone?? She is 5
Cal:i know,just let him spoil her babe,material things
matter most when she is this young,and maybe the
only way Lefika knows how to express his love is
through gifts and money
Me:(kissing him)my very own psychologist
We continued watching the movies I'm bed,later i
made us a light lunch and played a few
games.Around 8 we bathed and went out to have
some stronyana stuff.

complaining,Cici deserved all that.He wrote me a
check for Cici's school fees.

the bags inside
Cici:eish mama i like Lefika,he buys me everything i

Me:(pretending to smile)mmh
Botho:how old is she?
Me:5
Neo:wooh so you had her when you were how old?
Mxm this bitches were getting on my nerves,I
whispered into Cal's ear that i wanted to go to the
ladies.He escorted me and waited outside,i did a re
touch on my makeup and we joined them.
Lucas:Cal hle mona your woman is hot,the whole
crowd was looking at her when she stood up
Cal:ae BA nyela jaanong
Everyone laughed,the DJ played my favourite black
Coffee song and i pulled Cal's hand
Me:babe lets dance
We danced to the dance floor and did our thing,the
DJ then played a boring song and we sat down
enjoying our drink.A girl wearing a black dress came
to our table all smiles
Lucas:ijoo let me go dance
All the guys left,i could tell there was some bad
energy around,i held Cal's hand and whispered in his
ear
Me:lets go to the car
The girl approached before we could leave,she
hugged Cal
Girl:oh God how long has it been?
Cal:Hi Khumo,long time indeed
Me:kgm
She looked at me up and down and joined the girls
Me:babe who is she?
Cal:ex
Me:mmh she is ugly
Cal:(laughing)ao mma
Me:fake hair,fake nails,fake lashes,too much make
up and an ugly nose.
Cal:(laughing)what are we going to do at the car?
Me:sex in the car
We both laughed going outside,okay don't call me
names but do you guys know sex in where you are
not 100% comfortable is the best,like in the car or in
the park or just somewhere where someone might
walk in.LOL
I didn't even have to take off my dress,i just pulled it
up and we did our thing then went back like nothing
happened.
Karabo:where have you guys been?
Cal:none of your business dick head
Lucas:(opening his hand to Karabo)i told you,give me
my money
He gave him 100 pula,we continued drinking and
having fun,we left around 2,Cal drove slowly since
we were both drunk,just a few blocks away from
home a car came speeding up,it bumped into ours,we
got off road and hit something like a tree then it
rolled into the main road.next thing i remember my
head hit something hard and i heard Cal calling my
name then blacked out.

Episode 33
I opened my eyes for the first time and the eyes hurt
me,i could feel that someone was holding my hand,i
turned my head and looked at her.She had on a red
jacket and her hair made into a bun.I held tight her
hand.
Ame:(surprised)Phatsimo!!
I pointed a glass of water besides me,she helped me
to drink in,she ran outside and called the nurse.They
came running in,they checked my pulse,temperature
and all that stuff.
Doc:you are a fighter Miss
I gave a fade smile,my leg was hurting
Doc:wait your leg has been broken,you will have to
take it easy
Me:thank you,how long have i been here?
Doc:3 days
Me:i came here alone?
Doc:let me go and check,will come back in a few
minutes
Ame came back in the room and sat holding my hand
Ame:mma you almost gave dad a heart attack,we
came here as soon as we heard,Cici is still with
Lefika,we haven't told her anything yet.
Me:and Calvin
Ame:aah..am so sorry he did'nt make it gatwe he lost
lots of blood before anyone could come to your
rescue..
Me:what?he didn't make it what do you mean?
Ame:aah gatwe he died on the spot
Me:(crying)No..no give me your phone
I dialed Cal's number and it went to voicemail,i logged
into Facebook,was meet by his photos all over my
timeline.Everyone wrote how they still couldn't
believe he was no more,i gave Ame her phone back
and buried my head in the pillow,everything started
spinning around in the air,everything became blur,i
saw his face when i closed my eyes,all this was a long
horrible dream that i wanted to wake up from.Ame
left,i cried so much my head hurt,not Cal,not my
Calvin please God make it a dream.I think i finally fell
asleep because i woke up to Cal's mum holding my
hand,she was not her bubbly self and i could tell
something was wrong
Me:where is he?
She burst into tears and hugged me,that's when it all
sink in,Calvin was no more,he was gone,he was
dead.That's the day i lost all hope,that's the day my
world crashed.
Mrs:Cal..Calvin died on the spot
I just looked at her and said nothing..tears were
flowing non stop,i wanted him to jump in and say
"We got you" but that didn't happen.I spent the
whole week in hospital,not talking to anyone,not
eating anything,i kept thinking about Calvin,the love
of my life,he was my everything how was i going to
face another day without him.Friday his parents took
me from the hospital,he was to be buried the next
day,it hurt so much when i remembered our last
conversation,kiss and how happy we were.Around 5

Episode 34
People stood up like its normal done,i was sitting
right infront of the room where the coffin was going
to be put,Cal's mother held my hand more
tightly,everyone was crying as the pastor said some
words from the Bible leading the coffin in.My heart
started beating fast,the coffin was put inside and
people sat down,everyone was looking at us
whispering.Cal's little brother pushed me inside,i
couldn't stand it no more.The next day Lefika came
with Ciara,Ame and my dad.The MC asked his friends
to say a few words.Khumo was the first,hee re ta di
bona
Khumo:Calvin and i knew each other way back to our
college days..he was..(crying)he was..i am sorry
She ran at the back of the house,Lucas stepped in
looking pale and drown
Lucas:Calvin was my brother,he was my best
friend,re lahlegetswe i remember our last day
together (crying)he was so happy telling me how
happy he was made me happy,we were having fun
and making jokes,when i heard he was no more i
cried and laughed at the same time because his last
statement was "if i die today am gonna die a happy
man"
I couldn't stop myself remembering that he did say
that..i let out a small smile thinking how crazy he
was,thinking how he always teased me calling me
babe.
Lucas:and though we are no longer together he will
forever live in our hearts
He sat down,his mother asked if i wanted to say
something and i said yes,i wnted to say a lot.
Cici:mummy can i say something too,i wrote him a
poem
Lefika's mum held her hand to the stage and gave her
a Mike
Cici:To my lovely dad
We cry but God is smiling
He is so happy
Your wings have long been prepared
He has asked other Angels to prepare a feast in your
name
Today a handsome angel has reached home
Heaven is celebrating
Rest in peace daddy Cal
We will always love you
And miss your cooking
She put the Mike down and went to her seat,bathong
my baby was all grown up,everyone was crying,i
thought i could do this but i couldn't
Me:i don't think i can do this anymore,am hurting so
much
Mrs:its okay
The program continued as the uncles and other
family members said their words,we drove to the
cemetery
Cici:mummy don't cry
Me:okay i won't cry
The program continued and they put the coffin
down,they said a few words then the pastor asked
the undertaker's to lower it down.Everyone was
crying,i didn't,my eyes had dried out,i felt my soul
leaving my body for a few minutes,i started
hallucinating because i saw Calvin smiling at me
wearing the exact same clothes he was wearing.

Episode 35
Everything was finished at the grave site and we
went home.We had our food but i just took a bite and
gave away the food.After everyone left Calvin's
parents called me in with my dad.I was still using a
wheelchair because of the broken leg.They
introduced themselves to my dad
Mr:We want to do things right by your
daughter,Calvin spoke highly of her and we are doing
what he would have wanted us to do.
Dad:ee rra
Uncle:Calvin had a house,the one they are staying in
and another one at Phakalane that he rented out,he
had 3 cars unfortunately the other one is the one is
the one that he lost his life to.
Mrs:Calvin also told us that you were pregnant
Me:(surprised)what?
Everyone laughed
Dumi:yeah you are
Me:no am not..i mean...no way..why would he tell you
that?
Mrs:have you done a pregnancy test?
Me:no need to i mean...
I counted secretly with my fingers..how i mean i
would have known if he ejaculated in me..that time in
the shower..i mean i did see his sperms on my belly...
Everyone was starring at me,i always thought we
were careful..so he did it intentionally
Uncle:so if what je said about the baby is true then
we will give everything that was his to his child and
Phatsimo being the mother will have to take care of
everything.
They continued talking,i was not listening,i wanted to
eish to the clinic and check if i was really pregnant.As
much as i didn't want a baby,i wanted this one,it's like
he knew something like this would happen.Everyone
started laughing and stood up,i called Dumi(his lil bro)
after everyone left the room
Me:how come i don't know am pregnant
Dumi:he knew you were going to be mad at him if he
told you he ejaculated in you
Me:he did,when i mean...haha sorry
Dumi:the first time you had unprotected sex
Me:hee he told you that
Dumi:mmmh,i think you are 3 weeks or a month
Me:heee Calvin ke senokwane
For the first time in a long time i laughed out loud,like
how does a woman not know a man has cum inside
her!!
Naomi left with my dad and Lefika,Ciara,Ame and i
stayed behind for a few days then left.First thing i did
was go to the doctors,i wanted to be sure i was really
pregnant,that baby would be my hope in life,i wanted
so much to be pregnant with his baby.The doctor did
an ultrasound
Doc:yes you are pregnant
Me:(happy)thank you God,how far?
Doc:i can't tell yet but it's less than 6 weeks
Me:wow i can't believe this
Doc:make sure you eat right and tle care of this

I came from the doctor's with a smile on my face.

Episode 36
When i heard Cal was gone i had lost all hope in
life,but here i was rubbing my big tummy enjoying
life,only if we could experience this together,he
would have been the best father ever.I was so glad
the whole accident thing was behind us,the man
whose car bumped into us had lost a leg but he was
okay,lesson learnt "don't drink and drive".
Cici came in with a packet of chips followed by Ame.
Cici:mama you want some?
Me:no thanks
Ame:mma you look ready to pop,how is your back?
Me:i feel better sitting like this
My phone ran,it was Cal's mum.
Me:hellk
Mrs:ao i thought i would hear babies crying first
Me:its not time yet i guess,my back hurts so much
when are you coming?
Mrs:i will come today after church,mma you are
tired,di twins ga se a child's play.
Me:they are the last ones,ke ikutlwetse
Mrs:(laughing)okay i will see
You later
She hung up and i looked at my tummy bigger than
any tummy I've ever seen,i was now 8 months and
the doctors told me i might go into delivery early
because most twins are born at 8 months.Kept
thinking how would have things turned out if Cal was
still alive,i had spent months without entering our
room,it had so many memories.I kept thinking how
kind his family was to me,how kind he was to
me,how i thought we were going to grow old
together.Yeah life neh.He left me when i least
expected.Lefika called that he was on his way to pick
up Cici,you know sometimes i wished it was Lefika
who had died but that would have been hard on Cici
since they just meet,now we shared custody of
Ciara,she was to go stay with Lefika until i gave
birth.He arrived around 8,Cici hugged him and went
into the car
Cici:bye bye mama
Lefika:how are you feeling?
Me:am fine,bye bye nana
I went back into the house,remembered how i always
found Cal waiting for me by the door everytime
Lefika picked up Ciara.I sat on the sofa going through
channels,i felt a slight pain in the lower abdomen.I
stood up to go yo the kitchen,that's when i realised
my water broke.
Me:(shouting)Ame
She came running,she noticed my water broke
Me:call Dumi
Ame:okay okay
She ran to theroom to get my phone.We waited for
Dumi while she massaged my foot,i kept pacing in
the house until he arrived.We got the bags and went
to the car,we arrived at the hospital when i could no
longer speak,child birth is no child's play.The midwife
rushed me to the maternity Ward,they checked my
cervix
Midwife:she is ready,don't push until i tell you to
Me:mmmh
After a few minutes they asked me to push,

Episode 37
After pushing for so long i heard a baby crying.The
midwife ased me to keep pushing because the next
one was on the way,i gave if my all,they showed me
the babies and placed them on my chest,o started
crying so hard,they reminded me so much of how
much i wished Cal was alive.After they finished their
stuff they took the babies away to bath them.
Me:i still don't know if they are both girls
Midwife:Its a boy and a girl
Me:(crying)Calvin and Chanel
I fell asleep and woke up to the midwife asking me to
breast feed them.They were so tiny and cute,Cal's
parents walked in,they were so emotional,they took
the babies from me and blessed them.
Mr:which one was born first?
Me:Calvin was
Mrs:so you already gave them names
Me:am sorry did you want to name them?
Mrs:well i can always give them Tswana names
I let out a small smile,kana old people like naming
babies ugly names.
Me:okay
Mr:And wat is her name?
Me:Chanel
Mr:Do you realise all your kids names start with C
Me:i didn't now that you have mentioned it Ciara
Calvin and Chanel
They stayed for a few minutes then left,after i was
released from the hospital i went to Mochudi so Cal's
mum could help with the babies,they really didn't
look like anyone at first but as time went on Calvin
Junior started looking like his father,it was so
heartbreaking looking at him with his dad's big
ears.He would have been happy if he was here i kept
thinking.He would have made a great dad.We stayed
for a full 3 months then i was called for an interview
at the bank.I left the twins with Cal's mum and went
for the interview,i won't lie it was difficult,had no
hope at all that i would work there so it came as a
surprise that they told me i was shotlisted.By the
Grace of God i got the job and had to move back to
Gaborone,finally i could be the independent woman
that i had always dreamt of being,Cal would have
been proud of me,i knew wherever he was he was
looking down at us and smiling.I left the babies with
Cal's mum since i was no longer breastfeeding them.
First day t work was okay,just basics,actually the
first week was okay until i started getting SMS es
from an unknown number telling me i had to sleep
with him because he made sure i got the job,like why
would i do that,nxa some men are trash.I never
replied to the SMS es,i was so not going to waste my
time with relationships,i still loved Cal and so not
ready to move on,it was just too soon plus i was a
new mother.After work a colleague offered me lift
and i agreed.
Episode 38
I showed him where i leave and he dropped me off
and we said goodbye.Sunday evening on my way
back to Gaborone from Mochudi i received another
SMS reading "Just give me a chance to love you
please Phatsimo" bathong who is this person.Only
Lefika came into my mind,he is someone who can
pull this stunts.That night i didn't sleep because i had
this weird feeling someone was watching me,i went
to where Ame was sleeping,she was on Facebook.I
got into bed with her
Me:mma i feel like someone is watching me
Ame:(scared)you are scaring me now
Me:are you sure the locks are logged?
Ame:i thought i locked them yes lets go check just to
be sure.
We tiptoed to the sitting room,i looked outside and
realised a BMW packing infront of our gate.We
watched it for a full 30 minutes,an SMS got in "I love
your ass"Okay this was going too far,i phoned Dumi
who didn't live far from us,i told him everything,right
after hanging up the car left.Dumi arrived after a few
minutes with his girlfriend,i was literally shaking,kept
woundering who he was.
Dumi:anyone in mind?
Me:Lefika
Dumi:would he really do that?
Me:i don't know really
Bone:(giving me a glass of water)here
I was shaking,it dropped down breaking into pieces
and water splashing all over.
Bone:babe why don't we sleep over until we report
the whole thing tomorrow
Dumi:do you want us to spent the night?
Me:(shaking)mmmh
Ame prepared them The guest room and she and i
slept in Cici's room.That night i had the scariest
dream ever.I was holding Cal's hand that night during
the accident,someone pulled me away from the car
then walked away leaving Cal to bleed to death,i
couldn't see the face properly but it was someone i
have seen before.I woke up breathing heavily,my
heart beating fast.I looked at the time,it was half
past 3 in the morning.
Ame:Phatsimo are you okay?
Me:something is not right,Cal didn't just die he was
murdered
Ame:mma what are you saying
Me:everything keeps coming back now,someone
pulled me out of that car and left Cal do die,i
remember now i heard him calling my name before
he blacked out
Ame:Aah mma you are scaring me,lets just go back to
sleep
I tried to sleep but my mind was all over,who would
want to kill Cal,he was the most kind person
ever,Lefika kept coming into my mind but no,he is a
lot of things and i still don't like him but i know he
was not capable of that,no way.Finally i fell
asleep,woke up around 8.I took a quick shower and
went to work,on the way i received a photo of me in
the shower.

Episode 39
I screamed out loud,some people are sick so they
have planted cameras in my house.The combi driver
stopped everyone looking at me.
Driver:k eng nnana e-wallet e repotile?
I would have laughed so hard if i was not freaked out
Me:stop right there
I gave him 10 pula and rushed into the crowd
forgetting my change.I reached the police station out
of breath.As usually the police took their time before
helping me.Finally i got help,told them everything
starting from the day i got the SMS.They
accompanied me home with their technical team to
search for the cameras,indeed they were there.In
every room.God knows how long the person has
been watching us.
Me:can't you trace them to their server?
Officer:we don't have those technicians and it would
probably take time
Me:okay so what's next?
Officer:we will investigate at your work,people
responsible for hiring and firing.do you have any
suspects?
Me:no..i mean i would suspect my baby daddy but he
has never took even 5 minutes in the house
Officer:anyone else who visits?
Me:its just me and my sister here most times,really
have no idea who it is.
Officer:maybe your sister brought friends here
Me:i will ask her when she comes back,thank you
Officer:i will keep untouched
They left,called in sick at work then i went to
Mochudi to see the babies.CJ was a copy of
Cal,Chanel had a bit of both of us.After they slept i
sat down with Cal's mum
Me:so you never told me how Cal really died
Mrs:why are you opening old wounds my child,just
move on
Me:did he die on the spot?
Mrs:yes,he was burned all over i hardly recognized
him
Me:what?so how did you know it was him?
Mrs:his watch and it was just the two of you on the
spot
Me:is that why you didn't want m to see him in the
coffin?
Mrs:(crying)yes i could hardly recognize him myself
Me:then what if it was not him?
Mrs:what are you trying to say?
Me:i guess m just day dreaming,Cal is gone
Mrs:May his soul rest in peace
Okay i think all this is creepy,no one knew for sure
that the dead person was Cal..it's either am going
crazy or something.Okay am going crazy,Cal is
dead,we buried him,i was there.
I left around 6,going back to the creepy house.Found
Ame cooking
Me:did anyone visit you sometime when i was at
work?
Ame:why?
Me:because someone installed cameras all over the
house
Ame:well the only people who are always here are
you and me
Me:exactly,who could have done it
Ame:mma this is starting to creep me out,i don't
think i will sleep here tonight
Me:me too,its haunted house
Episode 40
I watch lots of movies,i guess i just wanted Cal's
death to be one crazy scene where i find out he is not
dead and we live happily ever after.But life is real,we
can't rewind or forward we live in the present and my
present was without Calvin,had to accept and move
on.We spent the night at Naomi's.Next day after
work i picked up Ciara,it had been long since i spent
quality time with my baby,i felt like i have been
neglecting her.We went for ice cream them home,i
had asked Naomi yo move in with is for a few weeks
until we got to the bottom of whatever was
happening,the more the merrier.We all slept in one
bedroom,no one wanted to be alone.Friday Lefika
came to pick up Cici
Me:can't she spend the weekend,i miss her
Lefika:(attitude)i miss her too
Me:mxm
Cici came running with her Teddy bear.
Cici:mummy i will see you on Sunday okay
Me:okay bye i love you
Lefika started the engine and reversed into the
road.We made supper and Dumi and Bone joined
us.After dinner we played cards them my phone
ran,an unknown number.
Me:its a private number
Dumi:let me answer
Me:no i will do it
Dumi:put it on loudspeaker
I answered without putting it on loudspeaker
Me:hello

Naomi rushed to me as i was shaking
Bone:who was it,what did they say?

do my own investigation.

Episode 41
I didn't tell anyone about the call i could see they all
thought i was crazy.Wednesday after work i went to
Mochudi to check on my twins,they were growing up
everyday.I arrived very late around 8 home,from a
distance i saw the BMW,i tiptoed around it and wrote
the plat number.As i opened the gate the car ran off
into the darkness.The next day i gave the officer who
was incharge of my case the number.
Officer:Okay i will get back to you before the end of
the week
Me:thanks
Saturday morning we woke up to the police banging
on the door,i put on my gown and opened the door.
Police:we have a warrant to search your house for
drugs
Me:what?
He gave me the warrant and he and his men
searched everywhere,turning everything upside
down.
Police:thanks you mam
Just like that they left,okay what just happened
here?
Ame:heee ijoo
Naomi:its like we are in a movie or something
We cleaned the house and i called Cal's mum telling
her what just happened.
Mrs:Waitse i heard one of Calvin's buisness partners
was a drug lord
Me:jaanong what did they want here kante Cal was a
drug lord too?
Mrs:no.not my son he hated drugs they almost
ruined his life.
I kept quiet,bathong did i even know Calvin,he hid
that he used to do drugs from me,what else did he
hide.I hung up and went to his study,i knew he had a
safe behind the computer stand.It had a password,i
tried everything but it didn't open.My officer friend
called that they had a name of the BMW owner and
should come to the police station.I waited as he was
buisy.
Me:this morning your men just barged in my house
looking for drugs,what kind of drugs were you
looking for?
Officer:(surprised)my men
Me:yeah
Officer:they searched your house
Me:mmh
Officer:did they have a warrant?
Me:yeah one of them gave me the paper i didn't even
bother reading it
Officer:they were not our men,we don't search
houses on weekends and i haven't heard anything
about any tip off about drugs
Okay this was weird,they wore uniforms
Officer:let me ask around
He went outside for a few minutes then came back
Officer:nothing,those people obviously pretended to
be the police,maybe they were putting back the
cameras that we took.
I started shaking and feeling dizzy,nothing in my life
made sense right now,the SMS,the
BMW,international calls,drug searches,unknown
numbers,Cal's death,me thinking he is alive..nothing
made sense.
Me:wa re who does the car belong to?
Officer:this is actually kinda funny,it belongs to you.
Me:(laughing)okay funny
Officer:serious

Episode 42
Me:(surprised)how?i don't have money to buy a BMW
i don't even know how to drive
Officer:(showing me)here you see,it belongs to you
You know that time when you laugh instead of
crying,that's wat happened.I left the police station so
scared like someone was watching my every move.I
received another SMS "i got you that job when are
we hooking up"Hee ayyy people of this world,was i
going to hook up with a ghost now,why the hell
didn't he just tell me who he was.I took out my
simcard and chewed it then threw it in the bin,was
tired of all this.For the first time i believed Lefika was
not behind all this.I sent him am SMS with my new
number that he keep Cici until next week,i didn't
want my baby caught in the middle of all this
Shamanism.When i got home i found Ame and Naomi
watching TV,i went straight to my room and took a
long warm shower.I took a nap,felt like someone was
watching me in my sleep,woke up to someone's hand
on my mouth,i tried to scream but no voice came
out.I felt an injection in my hand and blacked
out.When i woke up i was in a room,a dark room,the
light brightened and i closed my eyes,a tall masculine
guy sat before me.
Man:where are my drugs?
Me:(dizzy)what?
Man:(angry)where did your stupid man hide my
drugs?
Me:(crying)i no nothing about drugs i swear
Man:where is Calvin?
Me:he is...(crying)Calvin is dead
Man:you think am stupid girl,why would he die a day
before my men get robbed
Me:(crying)please all i know is Calvin is dead,i know
nothing about the drugs
Man:(furious)you think i came all the way from
Mexico for this shit,those drugs are worth 50 million
dollars..(shouting)Jay...come here..Go get me that
video camera
Jay came back with the camera and started
rolling,the man hit me and kicked my stomach while
Jay was taking a video.
Man:this will bring Calvin back to life,you say he is
dead huh.
He continued kicking me until i felt my soul leaving
the body,i swear i died for a few seconds,i kept
thinking about my babies and cursing the day i meet
Calvin.I blacked out again,or maybe i was dead i don't
know,woke up to find myself chained to a bed,my
eyes hurt and my whole body.The man with weird
accent stood before me
Man:now tell me where are my drugs
I kept quiet
Man:(shouting)where are my drugs
Me:just kill me already told you i know nothing
Man:(laughing)oh that would be easy,am gonna kill
your babies and sister first
Me:no no no please we know nothing about the
drugs i swear to God

Episode 43
My God what has Calvin done now,this things with
money and drugs never end well,i saw my life flash
before my eyes like i knew he was serious about
killing my babies and sister.
Me:if i knew anything i would tell you but i know
nothing,believe me
Man:where do you think Calvin got all that money
huh!you think business was going well?
Me:i know nothing please believe me
Immediately the door fell down,2 men got in and
beat up the man,the other one removed the chains
from me,i swear i knew him,i could feel it.He picked
me up and threw me at the back of the van and drove
away,last thing i remember is gun shots,i was a bit
dizzy and couldn't see or hear right but i swear i
recognized those voices from somewhere.There was
a knife between me and the other guy,i picked it up
and stabbed his thigh,not much though.He took the
knife and threw it at the back without fighting me,he
injected me and i fell asleep again.I woke up at
GPH,some ribs were broken and my face was
bruised.Cal's mum was besides my bed..
Me:hello
Mrs:(exited)Phatsimo,God look at you what
happened
Me:i don't remember much really
Mrs:am so sorry you had to go through this
Me:(serious face)me too,i want to tell you guys

Mrs:ofcourse,will do when you get out of here
She left,i spent the next week in hospital,a day
before i left a colleague came to visit..
Me:can you please borrow me your phone i can't find
mine
He hesitated at first but eventually gave it
Rob:Phats wait i have to tell you something
Me:what?
I called my phone,guess what it was a private
number,i looked at him,he had guilt in his face.
Me:why is your number private
Rob:Phatsimo iv always wanted to tell you
Me:(angry)no!!
Rob:please it was a joke at first then i fell inlove with
you
Me:(angry)get out before i report you to your boss,so

Me:ftshek the last man i loved..(crying)he...he...get

Rob:i fell inlove with you at your first interview and i
knew you just had to get the job
Me:(shouting)get out..now
He left and i buried my head in the pillow,remind me
never to trust anyone again.Cal's parents picked me
up the next day and we went to mochudi.Everyone
was there,we sat around the table
Dumi:so you still don't remember what

Letso:nothing major mum chill
Mrs:(worried)how do i relax when you are hurt
Me:what happened
He looked at Dumi
Dumi:football..
Mrs:eish make sure you get that checked on
Letso:mum am not a baby okay,just..just chill
Mr:Ee Phatsimo what did you want to say?
Me:after what i have experienced so far i don't think
am no longer safe here,i want to go home and leave
everything behind,everything including the
twins,they belong here with you guys,i can't give
them the protection you guys give them.
Mrs:(sad)but why?
Me:am almost 22,should be enjoying my life having
fun and worrying about what am gona wear not
worry if some man is following me or if some fake
police are going to barge in looking for drugs.I can't
handle all that.
Mr:well if that's how you feel then you have our
blessing,you can leave the kids behind
Me:thank you
Dumi:so where are you going and when?
Me:am going back home,first i have to apply for
transfer at work
Dumi:okay
I was sitting next to Letso so i asked him to help me
stand up,i touched his thigh in support and he
screamed
Me:am so sorry
Letso:(in pain)its okay
Cal's dad came to the rescue,i couldn't stop
smiling,they knew i knew their little secret,i told you i
knew the people who rescued me,i stabbed him
intentionally because i wanted to be sure it was
Letso and Dumi,but how did they know where i
was?Was what that man said true about Cal stealing
his drugs,did Calvin and his family fake his death?If
so then who did we bury?Where was Cal now,was he
enjoying margaritas somewhere on an Iceland with
hot half naked girls or was Calvin really dead..I looked
at his mother,remembered how she cried so
much,did she know any of this?Now that i think of
it,what was Calvin and his brothers and dad
discussion that day in the study!!
Ijoo..they dropped me home after i tucked in the
twins.I no longer felt safe,i knew there were still
hidden cameras in the house so i had to act
smart,Ame and Naomi where happy to see me,i told
them everything and how i was all confused if Cal
was dead or not,that i knew nothing about the
drugs,tota i just wanted to prove to whoever was
watching us that i knew nothing,i was innocent and
needed to leave me the hell alone.
2 weeks went by so quickly and i went back to work,i
noticed the BMW was back,it would pack infront of
the house until we all went to bed,i mean who was it
and what did they want?I knew it was not Lefika or
Rob,who was it,was it Calvin?No way,i can't be
him,he is dead,yes dead and buried.

Episode 45
The next few weeks went on normal,nothing really
happened,the BMW left,my transfer was taking
long,maybe it was time i started threatening Rob to
make things faster,lol.I got in his office and closed
the door.
Rob:(smiling)Phatsimo
Me:(serious)why did you make my life such a living
hell?
Rob:i am so sorry,am just not confident enough to
approach a woman
Me:and where did you get my new number?
Rob:your little sisters called around asking if we
knew where you were with it,they said you had left
your phone behind and they were using it
Me:wow you are sick,you think you are the only man
who doesn't have confidence to talk to a lady huh..so
tell me how is my transfer request going?
He kept quiet and looked down
Me:(clamping hands)wow you are something else
waitse,just that am not a bad person or else i would
report you now.
I left the office angry,i needed to get out of here as in
yesterday before i get abducted again or get caught
up in the cross fire.Sunday the girls and i went to
church,i strongly needed God right now.When the
pastor was preaching he stopped where i was sitting
and asked me to stand up,see now why i always
hated church.
Prophet:How are you?
Me:(scared)fine
Prophet:God wants you to be happy
I kept quiet
Prophet:Keep coming to church and God will reveal
your husband
Uhu,bathong nna i don't want a man,well for
now,Men deceive,they lie and lie more.Well if God
said it then who am i to question him.The prophet
touched my head and continued preaching.After
church a young fine man stopped us and offered
lift.We politely said no.
Man:please ladies i am the prophet's son i won't steal
you.
Me:thanks but we are actually going to the mall right
now
Man:okay thanks,am Jacob by the way
Me:nice meeting you Jacob
We arrived home a bit late because we did some
window shopping first.
Ame:Mma Jacob is obviously interested in you
Naomi:i thought i was the only one who noticed
Me:nna am not interested in him
Ame:he is fine
Naomi:very fine
Me:very not my type
We all laughed
Naomi:ehe you have types now
Me:ee ao Calvin was above my league but he was my
type.
We laughed so hard,the door opened and Ciara came
running to me,we hugged.
Cici:happy birthday mama
Me:awww its my birthday.(crying)its my birthday
I ran to the bedroom and cried my eyes out,i
remembered my last birthday with Cici and Cal and
when they sang me happy birthday.I broke down,he
was really gone,Cal was gone.The door opened and
Ame called me into the sitting room
Ame:you have to see this

Episode 46
I wiped my tears and went into the living room,there
was a big cake,a box and flowers.I ran outside and
saw the BMW in the highway,i ran towards it but it
got away,call me crazy but the guy in the BMW was
Calvin,i knew it,i knew he would remember my
birthday,why didn't he just come in.I sad down on the
brick and cried my eyes out,why did i have to suffer
so much in the name of love.Ame helped me stand up
and we went into the house.
Cici:mummy should we cut the cake?
Me:mmh
I took the flowers and box and went into the
bedroom and locked myself in.I cried so much i fell
asleep,i woke up around 3,tired and hungry.I
switched on the lights and went into the kitchen to
make something to eat.I noticed the BMW was
packed outside.I put on my gown and went
outside,as i approached the gate the person started
the engine.The car didn't move,i heard the doors click
open and i took 5 steps back,that's when reality hit
me.Calvin was dead,here i was in the middle of the
night about to face a complete stranger.I ran to the
house and closed the doors and set the alarm,i was
crazy,completely crazy.Calvin was dead,dead and
buried.I switched off the lights and went to
bed,couldn't sleep and no longer hungry.I had kept
the box in under the bed,i wasn't ready yo know
what was inside.The next day was a public
holiday,woke up before everyone and made
breakfast.My heart wanted to open the box but my
head didn't.After breakfast i took Cici out for
shopping,wanted to spoil my baby after we had
lunch.
Me:so do you like living with daddy
Cici:mmh
Me:its just the two of you?
Cici:and his girlfriend
Me:is she pretty?
Cici:(laughing)she always asks me if you are
pretty,she is but not much
Me:mmmh
Cici:mama can i tell you something
Me:mmh what?
Cici:i don't think daddy is dead
Me:(surprised)what?
Cici:i think i see him sometimes
Me:where?
Cici:sometimes i see him after school at the gate
when he sees me he goes without saying hello
Me:did you tell anyone?
Cici:dad says i am hallu..hall..hall
Me:(interrupt)hallucinating
Cici:yeah
Me:(emotional)when did you last see him?
Cici:well yesterday i saw his car when dad dropped
me off
Me:what kind of a car?
Cici:a BMW
Okay i rest my case,Calvin is alive even Cici saw him.
Me:baby Calvin is dead okay,dad is right you are
hallucination
We finished eating and went home.I locked the
bedroom door and opened the box,there was a pink
and black lingerie,a diamond necklace and a note.My
heart stopped beating for a few seconds.it was Cal's
writing

watchin over you babe.Now wipe off those
tears,take a shower and wear something sexy for

Love Cal
I cried and laughed as i read the letter,my Cal was
really alive,i had so many questions but they could
wait,what mattered is my babe was alive.Cal was
alive
I looked all over for the cameras but didn't see any,i
slowly took off my clothes and walked to the
bathroom naked,it was such a turn on to know bae
was watching me.After i put on the lingerie and laid
on the bed smiling.Cici knocked on the door and i
kept quiet,she eventually left.I fell asleep and woke
up around 5.For the first time in a long time i was
happy.I helped Naomi cook while we danced amd
sang along to Taylor Swift songs like Cal used to do
with Cici.
Naomi:hee someone is in a good mood
Me:(happy)yes my mood is on level 100
Naomi:care to share?
Me:nope,i don't kiss and tell
Naomi:hee did you kiss Jacob
Me:who is Jacob?
We laughed and finished cooking,they sang me a
happy birthday song and we had the cake.I felt so
alive again,couldn't stop laughing and smiling.I called
Cal's mum to check on the twins
Me:you know what am canceling my transfer
Mrs:ao what changed
Me:i need to be here for my babies all the time
Mrs:Makoti wame batho you need to find yourself a
man now
We laughed at the idea
Me:(loud)you are right its time i found myself a man
I said it intentionally because i knew Cal was listening
Episode 48
2 weeks later
I had a light headache so i asked for the afternoon
off,no one was home.Made myself something to eat
and took a nap on the couch,i felt like someone was
watching me in my sleep.When i opened my eyes,our
eyes meet,he was standing infront of me,he looked
different,lost weight but he was still the same old
Calvin,my heart beat fast and he picked me up from
the sofa.Like it was finally happening,he was here in
the flesh,he passionately kissed me,how long has it
been since i kissed a man,i had so many questions
but they could wait.We were both hungry for each
other.
Me:(emotional)tell me am not dreaming
Cal:(smiling)you are not
He picked me up and we went to the bedroom,we
helped each other undress so quickly.
Cal:i missed you
Me:just shut up and make love to me
He dropped me on the bed and took out a condom
from the drawer,lol he still remembered.
Cal:put it on
I was shaking so bad,like this was happening.I think
he got impatient because he took it from me and put
in on himself.He cupped my breasts while i directed
his dick into me.I felt a slight pain first but after a few
seconds i felt the most joy i have'nt felt in a very very
long time.He made me forget all the questions i
had.He went so fast i could tell he hadn't had any in a
very long time.He turned me around and took it from
behind.Am gonna repeat myself.Sex with someone
you love is addictive.I was on another planet.He kept
whispering my name.After a few minutes he turned
me over and laid on the bed,i got ontop of him and
did my magic,i could feel it touching my Gspot,the
walls of my vagina tightened and we both screamed
in pleasure.We laid there no one saying
anything,listening to our loud heartbeats.I slowly got
off him and sat on the bed whipping myself,he took
the condom off and looked at me.
Cal:i love you
Me:tell me you have come for good
Cal:i will come,not today
Me:why?
Cal:i can't put your lives in danger
Me:(crying)i don't understand why you didn't tell me
in the first place,do you know what i went through
thinking you are dead
Cal:babe i will tell you one day when everything i
cleared out
Me:why Calvin why did you have to make me suffer
so much
He hugged me while i cried
Cal:just know that i love you babe and i will always
love you,if some people find out i am alive they will
kill you to get back at me
Me:did you steal their drugs?
Cal:i can't tell you that babe
Me:there is clearly a lot i don't know about you,who
else knows you are alive
We heard a car pack outside

Episode 49
Cal looked through the window,
Cal:shit go into the bathroom
Me:why
Cal:(angry)just do what i tell you dammit
I picked up my clothes and tiptoed to the bathroom.I
heard noise outside and a gun shot,was so scared i
sat down on the floor and buried my head between
my legs.I stayed like that until i heard someone
screaming in the living room,i was still shaking.
Ame:(screaming)Phatsimo,Naomi..guys
I put on my gown and went to the sitting room,the TV
was down,broken into pieces,the table and there was
blood on the floor.
Ame:(scared)are you okay?
Me:(crying)whose blood is that?
Ame:how would i know i just got here
The door opened,Dumi and his father got in
Dumi:what happened?
I sat down on the sofa,my mind was all over,where
was Cal,was it his blood,can i trust his father with
this secret..There was only one way i could know if it
was Cal's blood,DNA.
Mr:Ame got get me a mop and water,warm water
Me:i will do it
Mr:its fine,go and rest we will take care of everything
I went into the kitchen,there was a little blood there
too and a note written in blood 'DO YOU BELIEVE IN
GHOSTS?I threw the paper away screaming,Ame
came running
Ame:what happened?
Me:(stuttering)he...he...
I pointed at the paper,she picked it up and threw it in
the bin,she looked scared but i could tell she was
being strong for me
Ame:exactly what happened here?Who was here?
Me:(crying)i don't know,the whole thing happened so
fast i was in the bedroom then i heard gun shots..
Ame:aah i think we should move out,its either this
house is haunted or someone is trying to kill us
She made me remember what Cal said about
protecting us,did he steal the drugs now the Mexico
people where after him,what did he do and why
didn't he just tell me the truth?
We found the sitting room clean like nothing had
happened there.
Mr:i will get you a new lock
Ame:thanks
Dumi:(hugging me)what happened?
Me:(serious face)i don't know it happened so fast,i
was in the bedroom
Dumi:maybe the robbers thought there was no one
home
Ame:and the blood,and the note?
Mr:what note?
Ame:there is a note written in blood in the kitchen,i
threw it in the bin
They both went into the kitchen,i stood by the door
to eavesdrop,whatever they were saying they were
saying it very low,i heard the footsteps and i hurried
back to where i was.They left and i went into the
bedroom,there was a receipt a hotel bill on the floor,i
think they fell from Cal's pocket,i put on jeans and a
t-shirt.I had to know if he was alive or not and the
blood
Episode 50
I told Ame i was going out for some fresh air,took a
combi to the hotel.The receipt had his room number,i
didn't even ask the receptionist anything,i went
straight to the room,before i could knock i heard
familiar voices
Voice:i told you he loved her too much
Voice 2:(angry)He is stupid,stupid stupid
Voice:what do we do now dad?
Voice 2:lets wait a few days then we can burry his
body
My legs could no longer support me,i fell on the
floor,shaking and feeling dizzy.I crawled to the
reception before Dumi and his Dad saw me,my mind
was not working right so they knew Cal was alive all
this time,whose body were they going to burry?
The receptionist helped me stand up and i sat on the
chair,she gave me water
Receptionist:Mam are you a guest here?what
happened?
I saw Dumi and his dad coming from the stairs,i took
a newspaper and hid my face,there were in such a
hurry they wouldn't have seen me even if i didn't
cover my face.
Me:am feeling a lot better now,actually i came here
looking for someone
Receptionist:do you know their room number?
Me:yes,room 18
Receptionist:mmh the hunky dude,is he your
boyfriend?
Me:no he..he..is he in his room?
Receptionist:well i saw him this morning,i don't think
he is back yet
Me:how long has he been staying here?
Receptionist:aah i can't disclose that kind of
information to you
Me:okay thanks,he is hot hey
Receptionist:tell me about it,when i saw him for the
first time he got rained on,he came in laughing,he
whipped his face with his t shirt,girl those abbs
Me:(faking a laugh)but he has lost weight
Receptionist:yeah,a few KG's but he is still hot
Me:yeah i better go now
Receptionist:Any message?
Me:tell him Khumo was looking for him
We said goodbye,lol girls though she gave me more
information without realizing it,it hadn't rained in
almost 4 months so that means he has been staying
there for that long.I found Ame cooking with
Cici,after eating i went back to the bedroom.My mind
was all over,what was happening and whose body
was it.I woke up early the next day and went back to
the hotel,a different receptionist was on duty,i asked
him if the guy in room 18 was back
Receptionist:Oh his brother checked out for him
yesterday evening
Me:(disappointed)ohh,the tall one with Afro?
Receptionist:yeah that one
Me:okay thanks
My mind was not at work that day,my boss called me
in his office.My transfer has been approved after
such a long time.Maybe this was a sign from God,i
needed to get out of here ASAP..
Boss:report in next week..

home.He came late as usual,we sat outside by the
lawn.I offered him drink but he refused,mxm ever
looked at your ex and wondered if you had been a
fool the entire relationship,okay Lefika had the
swagg and looks but bad attitude and manners,if i
had no manners i would say he was raised in a test
tube.
Me:my transfer has been approved
Lefika:so!
Me:i am taking my daughter with me
Lefika:(attitude)ka you have 2 other kids why don't
you take them and leave my daughter alone
Me:me telling you is me being polite

Me:watch me,kante why can't we come to some
agreement like grown ups?
Lefika:you are not taking my child am not agreeing to
anything you say
Me:am still her legal guardian incase you forgot
He kept quiet,i took the glasses and went into the
house,after a few seconds i heard his car reverse into
the road.We went to the Chinese shops to buy
boxes,we were all exited about going back home,new
beginnings far from Calvin,Lefika and all the
drama.The next day i went to take Ciara's
transfer,Ame also transferred her BOCODOL classes
to Maun,we packed everything that belonged to
us,Friday morning i went to Mochudi to say bye to
the twins and Cal's family.Also gave them the keys to
the house,ke gore i was done with that lying
manipulative family,our only connection was my
babies that i was leaving behind not because i
wanted to but because i felt they were safe with the
family and because i had no one who would help with
them.The furniture and clothes left in the afternoon
and we took an evening bus that Friday.Arrived in the
morning,we cleaned the house and took a nap.Woke
up around 10 and continued cleaning then went to

difference in me,finally fresh air and no drama.We
cleaned for my dad and went back to maun in the
evening.Monday i found Cici school,thank God the

to be one of the reasons why i wont go to heaven
after i die.Tuesday i reported for duty.Bathong my
life was where i wanted to be,the biggest question
that i still had that kept me awake at night was
Calvin,was he dead or not and what did his father
and brothers know?Whose blood was at the
house?and how did they know,for them to show up
just like that and clean the house. Hee that family
though, always thought they were too good to be
true.
Episode 52
3 months later
I had just come back from seing my twins,they had
grown up so much,CJ could crawl and Chanel
attempted to stand up,they looked so much like
Calvin now.
His family had a memorial dinner a few weeks back
unfortunately i couldn't attend because it meant
nothing to me,Cal didn't die that day,ke gore i was
not even sure if he was dead or not and i didn't care.
Calvin and his family were a bunch of lying
criminals,well except for his mother,i know s knew
nothing about the whole staged car crash,i spent
months in a wheelchair mourning someone who was
alive,i bet he was hiding somewhere looking at me
crying and thinking what an idiot.
Mxm but i made an excuse ofcourse for not going to
the dinner,i told Cal's mum my dad was not feeling
well.During their dinner i was on a boat with my
special friend i meet at church few weeks back,he
was the groomed pastor,a well mannered Tawana
man,just what i needed.
My head told me i was moving fast but the heart
wants what it wants gape its not like we were
sleeping together or anything,oh by the way i was an
usher at church so our little union was more like a
courtship than a relationship.
He said he wanted to marry me,this reminded of that
Prophet i once visited his church,well i guess i had to
give a prophesy confirmation..We had settled in
well,no stress waitse just living a normal life just like
everyone else.
Friday after work i took Cici to the saloon to wash her
kinky hair,while waiting i received a call from Dumi
Me:hello
Dumi:hey long time
Me:yeah but i was there just last weekend to see the
twins
Dumi:yeah mama told me,how i everything?
Me:can't complain really,i have my life figured out at
the moment
Dumi:nice so anyone special
Me:(faking a laugh)hee i don't kiss and tell
Dumi:so there is someone?
Me:yeah
Dumi:he better not hurt you or he will have me to
deal with
I heard someone coughing in the background,all of a
sudden i had this feeling like someone was listening
on our conversation
Me:il get back to u in a few seconds
I hung up,i had goosebumps all over my arms,mxm
why was i letting this bastards back in my life?
We went home and i took a long bath listening to
music.My phone ran,an unsaved number,i lowered
the volume of the radio
Me:hello
I heard people breathing heavily like they were
making love,ijoo i dropped the call,it called again,i
answered,the girl was shouting Kabelo's name.I hung
up again and saved the number.Later i logged in
watsapp and went through my contacts,bastard!!!!
Episode 53
I called the number and a girl answered.
Me:you tried to call me earlier
Girl:sorry the phone might have dialed itself
Me:okay
I hung up,mxm some men are dogs,he tells me about
no sex before marriage while he is buisy sleeping
around.The girl's dp was her and Kabelo and her
status was a photo of her and Kabelo in bed,she
wrote "situation right now".I called Kabelo and he
answered on the second ring
Me:o kae?
Kabelo:what do you mean?
Me:just so you know i know you are sleeping with
that girl from the choir
Kabelo:who told you that?
Me:she did,you know what i dont need that kind of
drama in my life,if you can't be faithful when we still
dating i will be a fool to expect you to be faithful
when we are married,am done.
Kabelo:baby wait what do..
I hung up,more and more lies,was starting to
question my choice of men,i seem to pick the lying
manipulating ones.Thanks God i found out earlier,i
bet he was sleeping with the whole church,i was
probably the laughing stock.I blocked his number.I
saw him at church,he waved at me and i gave him a
mean look.After church i saw the girl he was sleeping
with,i walked towards her,she notice me and did a u
turn,i followed her into the toilets
Me:how long have you been sleeping with him
Girl:i don't know what you are talking about
Me:okay then i will show the Pastor the photos i have
maybe you will explain better to him
Girl:wait..wait look he and i we are not dating it was
just a once off thing
Me:ehe..okay..i will not forget to tell the pastor
that..nxa ke gore you know Kabelo and i are in a
courtship still you slept with him
Girl:am not the only one sleeping with him
Me:(attitude)are you trying to justify yourself?
Girl:no
I left her standing,took a taxi home.You know to be
honest i was not hurt,like i was just cool,Calvin had
made my heart ice cold,bo Kabelo had nothing on
him.I found him sitting on our stoop
Me:(folding arms)and then
Kabelo:i can explain
Me:(attitude)am listening
Kabelo:it was a mistake,wont happen again
Me:hey i dont care ka re its over
Kabelo:Ao mma my first mistake
Me:(laughing)you think i don't know you are sleeping
with half of the girls at church?

Episode 54
22 years and already fed up with men,first it was my
first love Lefika,then my soul mate Calvin now this
stupid church boy Kabelo.Yeah neh maybe i was
destined to be single all my life.Next Sunday i told the
pastor i was calling off the courtship reasons being
that i wanted to focus on my kids,he suggested
counseling for me and Kabelo but it didn't help,i had
set my mind straight this time around,was tired of
being used by men,you know maybe i should be like
other girls and find me a friend with benefits
lol.Months passed by since i broke up with
Kabelo.One day as i was with Cici in Jet we bumped
into Lefika
Cici:(exited)daddy
He picked her up and kissed her
Lefika:I missed you
Me:i didn't know you were home
Lefika:i arrived this morning,went to your house and
heard you were in town,saw you coming in here
Mmh he looked fine,no no don't get any ideas,its just
a compliment,we went around the shop looking for
Cici's clothes,he paid then we left.
Cici:daddy can we have milkshakes
Lefika:(looking at me)if mummy is okay with it
Me:sure i will take the plastics with me,make sure
you bring her before 4 because we going to check on
my dad
Lefika:you can join us
Me:no thanks
Cici:please mama
Me:(annoyed)no thanks
Mxm i hated how Ciara acted around Lefika,she
would suddenly change into this spoilt brat,she will
even throw tantrums if she didn't get her way.I said
goodbye and went into Spar,bumped into my old
crush Kitso,ijoo i had a big crush on the guy way back
when i was still a teen,we exchanged numbers and
went our separate ways.When i got home i found his
inbox mo watsapp.We talked and talked,ijoo a re he
also had a crush on me but was afraid of Lefika,nxa

said no,he said he was single too.We decided to do
lunch the next day.Hee didn't sleep that night,lunch
with my old crush.He picked me up around 12 and we
had lunch at Makoro Lodge.We had so much in

Waitse the way i was dick hungry i was planning on
giving it to Kitso that night,ladies have you ever
reached that point in life where you just want to get
laid,nnyaa it has been long hle,before Calvin it was
nothing i mean after having Cici i spent full 5 years
without sex,now i think i had like almost a year and
my body was itching for a man's touch.Ebile from the
restaurant i went straight home,was so disappointed

blankets,Ame pulled them off
Ame:tell me how did it go?
Me:(laughing)He is Bame's boyfriend and baby daddy

Ame:hoo did she try to fight you?
Me:Actually no,gape i got out of there fast fast
There was a knock at the door,Cici got in holding
pizza
Cici:i brought lunch
We went to the sitting room,Lefika was sitting on the
couch
Me:Lefika
Lefika:Phatsimo
Ame brought plates and juice,they ate,was not
hungry,after she took Cici to the river,was too tired
to go with him,Lefika stayed behind,we watched TV
in silence then i stood up and went to the kitchen,he
followed me,our heads bumped when i closed the
fridge
Lefika:sorry
Me:want something?
Lefika:water
I pointed at a bottle on the table,hee there was too
much chemistry there ebile i almost forgot how
much i hated him.He touched the bottle and went
outside without drinking the water.
Me:i thought you...
He interrupted me with a kiss,all of a sudden we were
helping each other undress
Me:go lock the door
He hurried and came back before i could finish the
sentence,he picked me up and we went to my room
Me:you got a condom?
Lefika:no you?
I shook my head..shit
Lefika:(putting on his clothes)give me 2 minutes
I heard his car engine start,i washed my vagina and
sat on the bed waiting,after a few seconds i heard
the main door open,that was quick.I laid on the bed
then i heard a familiar voice calling me.No no no..my
dad.I put on a dress and went to the sitting room
Dad:tea hoo ngwanaka
You should have seen the disappointment on my
face.While i was in the kitchen i heard Lefika's car
outside then the door opened,i went into the living
room laughing,i showed him my dad,you should have

my dad,so he had found himself someone and they
were serious,ijoo so my dad could find a steady
person and i couldn't.You know no matter how old i

Episode 57
A week later
I walked in the grocery store with Potso,who
happened to be my dad's girlfriend's
son,disappointed i was,All the good men i know
where either taken or related to me,so technically
Potso was my step brother,after buying meat we
went to the bottle store and bought wines and
ciders. After Calvin's pretend death i had bowed
never to drink alcohol but after finding out he was
still alive and probably still alive now,what the hell.It
was festive and i was in the festive mood,the step
siblings and a few relatives and friends were having a
braai at our house.I had invited Lefika but he was still
not talking to me after that incident,lol.Potso had
invited a few of his friends,they were fine young men
but only one got my attention,lol he was not the
hottest of them all,actually he was the least cute of
the squad,he was hot and had that thing you
know,ke gore ladies you see how Burna Boy is,ugly
but just hotnyana and has that thing,or Kwaito of
skeem saam. You get me,good.
He walked in while we were making chakalaka,my
hands were dipped in the bowl
Jason:Potso a re o batla stick
Me:its in my pocket,left pocket
He hesitated to put his hand in but eventually he
took the memory stick,touching my but nyana 2
mins.He walked out and i smiled.They started playing
my kind of music,am a big fan of house music ebile
kana i can dance like seriously.They were doing the
braai so i walked to them holding a 440 of reeds
lemon vodka.We made small talk,people started
arriving,we had a good time to be honest,we danced
and drank and everything fun.Around 10 Potso asked
me to go with him to pick his girlfriend at her
house.Since my crush was going i hopped in,while
Potso went in we were left alone in the
car,awkward!!
Me:so are we picking up your girlfriend next?
Jason:(laughing)no
Me:mmh
Jason:so did you invite your boyfriend?
Me:i don't have any
I intentionally flirted with him,i looked him in the
eyes and blinked slowly,he touched my hand and we
kissed,the doors opened and we pretended like
nothing happened.The girl greeted us and we went
home,it was awkward nyana.When we got there,we
found them playing my favourite black coffee jamn.I
acted like i was drunk drunk and pulled Jason to the
dance floor,we danced them he pulled me behind his
car.He lifted me up and pressed me on the car bonnet
and we kissed,bathong his lips were so soft and juicy
and he smelled nice,the smell sa castle lite nyana
turned me on.How long has it been since i was kissed
that hot!!
Episode 58
We kissed so passionately for a very long time my
legs became week.Ke gore i was drunk where i could
see what i was doing so i pulled myself from him
before we did something we would both regret,yes i
was attracted sexual to him,yes i think i had some
little feelings and a big crush but i was not gonna
have sex with him that night,especially when am
drunk,the last thing i needed was another baby or
sexually transmitted infections.
Me:lets go dance
Jason:aah babe come on
Eish my mood went from a 100 down to 0.0005,just
how he said babe reminded me of Calvin,bathong will
i ever get over him?
I went to the crowd and he followed me,i sat down
and looked as everyone was having fun,he sat next
to me
Jason:am sorry if i was moving too fast
Me:its okay,we kissed its fine
Jason:can i have your number
Me:give me yours,i know you guys take long to reply
He said it as i pretended to dial it on my phone,i don't
know what had happened to the little crush i had
earlier,it was gone gone,maybe the kiss drained it
all.haha who knows.I went into the house straight to
my room,locked the door and slept.Woke up the next
day someone banging on my door,i had slept with
yesterday's clothes,i opened the door and Potso
stormed in
Me:mmh
Potso:where did you disappear to last night,Jase and
i searched all over for you
Me:why?
Potso:ao i noticed the chemistry between you guys
Me:agg i just wanted to kiss him that's all,he is not

Lefika:am bringing Cici over
Me:what time am not home
Lefika:tell me when you are
Me:okay
I lied,eish Cici wa lapisa,i needed all the silence
because of this hangover.Woke up around 2 and took
a bath and fixed myself something to eat.I received
an SMS from an unknown number asking to meet at
Riley's hotel room number 5 at 7.Ijoo what if its a
serial killer,there is no way am going there,i called the
number and my heart stopped beating for a
second,what if its Calvin?was i ready to face
him,what if its the Mexican guy.I switched off my
phone but my heart was curious to know who it
was.Should i go or not??
Episode 59
Around 6 Lefika dropped of Ciara and left.I asked
Ame to babysit for me but she had other plans,my
dad and his woman had gone back to the cattle post
and Ciara thought she was better than everyone
there was no way she was going to agree to go to my
dad,aah gape it was a bit late.I switched on my phone
and called the number,it ran unanswered.Who could
it be,kana it was Jason,mmh no.I called Potso and
asked for his number,so it was not Jason.I really
wanted to know who it was,my heart kept telling me
it was Calvin,i think deep down i still thought he was
alive and would come back.I called Potso's little sister
and invited her over,she arrives at half past 7,i asked
her to look after Ciara and i will be back,to bribe her
we went to the mall and bought them ice cream and
Zimba chips,its so easy to bribe small kids.I arrived at
the hotel at exactly 8,a car passed by and my body
became cold and had goosebumps,it disappeared
into the dark.I asked the reception lady to show me
where room 5 was,she asked me if i was Phatsimo
and i said yes
Receptionist:you just missed him but here is the key
Me:him?how did he look like?
Reception:hot
I ran outside,who could it be,just hope its not anyone
playing mind games on me.I ran back inside and took
the key,my heart stopped beating for a minute,the
lights were dim,petals on the bed and
roses,champagne,chocolates and sweet music
playing,sweet aroma from the candles.Bathong now i
have a secret admire.I called the number again and it
wasn't available.I sat on the bed crying,i knew it was
Calvin,i hate him but i still loved him,why was he
doing this to me or was i going crazy.I cried myself to
sleep,i woke up to someone touching my hand.I
opened my eyes and meet with his smile,you know
when you are angry at someone and when you see
them you start smiling and forgetting how angry you
were.
Me:Calvin
Cal:babe
We hugged for so long,if this was a dream i didn't
want it to end,i didn't want to let go of him.
Voice:ma'am..
Me:mmmh
I opened my eyes,so it was a dream,Cal didn't come
back,that morning i made up my mind gore i was
done getting my hopes up for nothing,if he was alive
he would have come back by now,he would have
waited for me in the hotel room because i knew he
was patient.I took my phone and left the cleaning
lady to clean the room,i gave the reception the key
and went home.Waitse gore am saying this for the
last time and i mean it,i am done with Calvin,whether
he is dead or alive or his memories,i was hurting

cute,they could say a few words,they walked and
pulled everything they could get hold of.Cal's mum
threw them a big birthday party,i brought Cici with

Me:(emotional)he is dead,i can't be in love with a dead

Instead of saying anything i baby kisses him,
Me:i hope this works,lets take things slowly
He pulled me towards him and kissed me slowly,he
was not the best but he knew what he was
doing,except he used more tongue.
He walked me home holding my hand,we sat on
some big rocks by the gate and said nothing for the
whole 5 minutes.I stood up and hugged him
Me:next time we kiss dont use too much tongue
We both laughed,am glad he found it funny if it was

guy,he let me drive them took over when i let the car
in the sand,we found only his parents,they were old
people and his father was blind,they offered us
madila(sour milk),we ate porridge with it and
they gave me 2 litters to take home.
Mum:Mboy tshwarela ngwetsi yame koko the

and down to earth.
Botshelo:come help me
We ran around the chickens like we were kids,finally
we managed to cache one,he killed it and his mum
cooked it,it took so long to be ready so we went into
the Forrest to collect firewood.We went hand in

making was on point if i had to rate it it was a 100

water for me to bath,i didn't want to go home but
had to think about my daughter.
Botshelo:babe am going to see my parents later so
incase you call and my number is off..
Me:okay
He dropped me off at home,the house was empty
but it was not even 11 yet.I called Ame ame she
didn't answer,i called Potso.
Potso:hey

Potso:oh we are home now,going to the beach later
Me:Cici and Lebo ba kae?
Potso:they are here with us,you can join us if you
want to
Me:no thanks,just bring the girls over
Potso:okay bye
I cleaned the house and washed Cici and I's laundry
then cooked lunch.They dropped off Cici and Lebo
around 1
Ame:so how was your night?
Me:(smiling)the best night of my life
Ame:(attitude)mmmh okay so did you guys..you

Me:obviously and it was amazing
Ame:ohh okay,see you later
Me:wait..kante why are you always judging
Botshelo?
Ame:i am not just..well he is a nice person yes but he
is not your type
Me:and my type is?
Ame:bo Potso jaana and his friends you know
Me:Potso doesn't have his own room,he doesn't have
a plate,he only has that car and lots of expensive
clothes,he doesnt even give his mother 1 pula month
end,i take care of his mother for him,if i don't buy dad
food then his mum will starve to death and on the
other hand Botshelo has everything,he takes care of
his parents,...(pause)you know wht am not even
explain anything to you.I love him just the way he is,i
am 23 with 3 kids but he doesn't judge me so why
should i judge him,gape nna in my eyes he is perfect.
Ame just looked at me and said nothing,she went to
the car and they drove away.I bathed Cici and gave
them their lunch and we watched TV all day.Bae
came back around 5,we sat outside and i gave him
his food
Bae:i hope you haven't put some love potions in here
Me:(smiling)i have
Bae:then its working for you
He took my hand into his and smiled at me,he ate and
i took the plate back to the house,came back with a
glass of water
Me:i would offer you a drink but my step siblings and
sister finished it all
Bae:its okay,so babe about last night
Me:(shy)mmh
Bae:thank you
Me:(smiling)i love you
Bae:i love you more,wish we could always be this
happy
Me:me too
Bae:you know people seem to think they have an
opinion in our relationship
Me:you know what let them talk and see what they
get in the end
He kissed my hand and stood up
Bae:i should get going now
Me:doing something tonight?
Bae:no why?
Me:i was thinking maybe we can do some more of
last night
We both laughed
Bae:so what time should i pick you up?
Me:i will text you when my sister is home
Bae:i cant wait
I walked him to his car and went back to the
house.Wow can't believe how luck i was,its not
everyday you meet a nice caring man like
Botshelo.He might not earn a lot and not driving an
expensive car but to me he was everything.I took a
long bath until the squad was back,they went into
the kitchen and came back holding the pots.
Ame:ijoo we are so hungry
Me:mxm
I went back to my room and changed into a dress and
sandals.I put my work clothes in the bag
Me:Amzo mind looking after Cici tonight?
Ame:hee so you are going back for round 2
Me:actually i am...il come back tomorrow after work
Cici:mama are you going to sleep at your boyfriend's
house?
Me:hey..who is my boyfriend?
Cici:sorry..
Me:Ame??
Ame:sure
Bae picked me up and we went to his place,he drove
while holding my other hand.When we got to his
place he took my bag and threw in on the bed and
picked me up..He kissed me while helping me take off
the dress.Heee it was about to get lit in here.We
managed to take it off eventually and i helped him
take off his clothes.He pinned me against the wall as
he put on the condom.Felt it slide slowly in,we both
gasped for air.Yph know a little rough sex now and
then is good,yesterday we made love,today we had
sex.
He put me on the bed and took it from behind,he
went in slowly to avoid hurting me,obviously he
knew he had a big dick.After a few seconds he went
fast and laid on my back.He grabbed a towel and we
both wiped ourselves.I was shaking,hee. Good sex
will make you shake,i couldnt fell my legs.He hugged
me as we cuddled listening to each other's heart
beats.
Bae:princess!!
Me:bae
Bae:i love you
Me:me too
Bae:when i got my shit togetjer am gonna marry
you,have a baby or two
Me:no just one baby,i have a lot already
Bae:(laughing)a boy
Me:yeah one who looks like you
Bae:haha yeah
My phone ran,it was Cal's mum,i ignored it ah i didnt
want to spoil the atmosphere but then again
itvmight be important.
Me:hello
Mrs:(crying)Cal...Calvin is...
Me:mma??
Mrs:Calvin is alive...

Episode 66
Me:what?
Mrs:yes..i just found out today (crying)i just dont
understand all this
I looked at Bae and got out of bed,i walked to the
door and noticed i was naked,he threw me his t shirt.I
think IV always known Calvin was not dead,well i
mean the second time around.
Me:where is he?
Mrs:he is still with the police maybe he will come
home tomorrow
Me:okay i will...(looked at Bae) i mean he has a lot of
explaining to do
Mrs:this just doesn't make any sense i mean i saw
him..he was dead
It hurts so much to hear her cry that much,that
woman had been nothing but kind to me since day
one and she was the one taking care of my kids until
this moment..I wish she knew the whole truth or
atleast half of it like i do.
She cut the call,i didn't call her back,she needed the
time and space to adjust to the whole thing.For the
past 2 years she has been living knowing that she
buried her son only to find out he was alive and
kicking.Hee how i wish i could see Calvin right now.
Bae:princess
Me:ohhh eish this life
He came to where i was and hugged me,i was still
holding the t-shirt.
Bae:bad news?
Me:honestly i dont know if they are good or bad
Bae:what happened?
We sat on the bed and i told him everything,starting
from the day i meet Calvin until the day i found blood
in the sitting room and a note written in black,ohh
and the phone call and the whole hotel thing,i did'nt
want to leave anything behind
Bae:wow babe that sounds like a chapter from a
horror movie
Me:i know right
Bae:so now that he is back..
Me:(interrupt)it changes nothing,i mourned Calvin for
too long,i lost weight,i waited and waited for him
until i finally gave up,i deserve a happy ending and its
not with Calvin.
I meant everything i said,i had been through hell
because of Calvin,i almost died because of his shady
dealings,he put not only my life but my daughter and
sister's life in danger.The love i always thought i had
for him faded.Bae and i remained silent until i fell
asleep,the next morning i went to work,around lunch
time i received a call from an unsaved number.
Me:hello
Voice:babe
My heart skipped for a few seconds then i regained
my breath,so he was really alive.
Me:Calvin
Cal:guess what?
Me:you resurected,wow nice
Cal:i am on my way there i want to explain everything
Me:(pissed)i don't need your explanations Calvin,just
stay the hell away from me
Cal:i will be in Maun in a few hours
I hung up on him,just when i found al the happiness i
could ask for them boom Calvin comes back to
life.The day went by so quickly,i no longer knew how i
felt about the whole thing,part of me was exited at
the same time angry,my heart still loved the idiot but
at the same time i hated him more than I've ever
hated anyone.When i knocked off i switched my
phone off and went to Bar's house.He was still at the
driving school,i borrowed his sister's phone and told
him to bring me the keys,was not in the mood to see
Ame,Potso and mostly Calving.Bae brougjt the keys
and left.After a few hours i heard a car outside,i
thought it was Botshelo.There was a knock then the
door opened,Botshelo's niece walked in
Niece:some woman and men are looking for you
Me:do you know them?
Niece: no
I wore the dress and went outside,my heart stopped
beating for a minute when i saw him,dressed in all
black and that bright smile almost made me fall
inlove with him all over again.He took 4 steps
towards me and stopped.If Botshelo's older sister
was not looking i would have jumped on Calvin and
kissed him,seing him standing infront of me made me
realise how much i loved the guy.
Ame:Phatsimo!
Dumi:just give her a moment to digest the whole
thing
Calvin came a few steps closer and we meet
halfway,he hugged me so tightly i did'nt want him to
let go.Everyone was looking and i didn't care.He led
me to the car and we drove away,i did'nt even lock
the house,everything happened so fast,Ame kept
saying my name but i couldn't hear what it was she
was saying.We drove to Makoro Lodge that's when i
realised where i was,i pulled my hand from Cal's and
slapped him.He rubbed his cheek and laughed
Cal:damn babe
Me:(crying)do you know what i went through?
Cal:babe i will explain everything when we get to our
room
Me:(serious face)take me back to where you found
men
Cal:i need to explain to you
We got out of the car and went to the reception,He
took the keys and we went to the room.As soon as he
closed the door he kissed me,i wanted to stop him
but i couldnt.He picked me up and pressed me
against the wall.He smelt so nice and fresh.He kissed
my neck leaving love bites all over my neck.
Me:(whispering)Calvin
Cal:babe
His voice was so sexy and rough,the way he said
babe made me wet wet.He took off my dress and i
felt his dick slide in my vagina.God it was like the old
times.He thrust so hard his dick touched my womb,it
hurt a little that's when i came back to my senses.I
remembered how much Botshelo loved me and how
much i loved him,what i was doing was wrong on all
levels.I pushed Cal away and put on my dress,i picked
up the shoes and ran outside,for heaven sake we
were not even using a condom.I ran
downstairs,luckily a taxi had just dropped of a
guests,i got in and told him where i was going.When i
arrived i found Botshelo's car packed infront of the
house,When he saw me he came running and we
meet halfway,he hugged me so tightly i felt so bad
about what i just did with Cal.The driver whistled at
us,we walked to him and Bae Gabe him his money.We
walked back to the house..He closed the door and
looked at me with a serious face
Bae:you had sex with him did'nt you?

Episode 67
I touched my neck trying to cover the love bites..He
looked so calm and serious.
Me:(looking down)yes
Bae:do you still love him?
Me:i..he is the father of my kids
Bae:do you still love Lefika
Me:ofcourse not
Bae:he is also the father of your child,don't tell me
you love Calvin because he is your baby daddy,do you
still love him? Yes or no
I sat on the bed an Buried my head in my hands.Ke
gore Calvin has just came back to life 2 minutes back
nd he is already ruining my happiess.I didn't want to
answer Botshelo because my answer was going to
hurt him,yes i still loved Calvin,more now more than
IV ever loved him.
Bae:well i guess i already know the answer to that
question,i refuse to be the guy who stood between
you and your happiness.
Me:(surprised)what?
He knelt before me and took my hand into his,he
looked me straight in the eyes.
Bae:i love you
Me:(crying)i love you too
Bae:(smiling)if its what you want then go back to
him,you have waited this long for this moment dont
let me be the reason why you cant b happy.
Bathong waitse i deserved Botselo he was too kind
and carrying thats why i fell inlove with him..I kissed
him on the cheek but he shifted his head and kissed
my lips.I didnt kiss him back.After a few minutes he
stood up,he went outside.My phone rang..
Me:what?
Cal:babe kana i didnt cum
Me:(smiling)you are stupid
Cal:get your ass here now i miss tag cookie
Me:i want so hard to hate you Calvin,but i can't
Cal:babe don't keep daddy waiting...
He hung up,it was so embarrassing leaving with my
bag.Botshelo was in his car,when he saw me walking
towards him he closed the doors and reversed..my
heart broke into pieces.His sister came towards me
and looked me up and down.
Sis:mxm
Me:excuse me
Sis:waitse i know your type,now that you have got
what you wanted you are living him
Me:what is it that i wanted?
Sis:his money
Me:i didn't dump him he dumped me ebile nna i never
wanted his money.
I walked out of the yard,i got a taxi and went to
Makoro lodge,i knocked once and he opened.He
smiled at me and took the bag from me..He kissed me
but i pushed him away,i sat on the bed,he pointed at
his boner and smiled
Cal:babe lets finish were we left off
Me:(serious face)why?
Cal:you want me to mustibate while you looking?
Me:(serious face)everything is a joke to you right,you
die and come back to life as you wish then you want
to act like nothing happened,i suffered,i broke my leg
in that accident that we thought killed you....i..and
when i have finaly found happiness you re appear..
Cal:what do you want to know?
Me:why did you fake your death,where have you
been?
He put on a jean and came to seat next to me on the
bed,i moved to the sofa and faced him
Me:am listening
Cal:i stole my Mexican business partner's drugs and
sold them.We made lots of money from them,i tipped
off the police..
Me:(interrupt)We?
Cal:yes me and my dad, brothers,Karabo and Lucas
I stood up,wow so during the funeral they all looked
at me crying like an idiot for someone who was nof
dead.
Me:wow Calvin
Cal:babe please don't force me to tell you
everything,i want you to look me like you used to not
like am some criminal
Me:continue
Cal:to cut the story short the guy is dead now he can
no longer hurt you that's why i came back
Me:(crying)that time,the note,the blood
Cal:everything was staged to make you believe i was
dead for good that time...

Episode 68
Me:you know what,the more you tell me about this
the more i start to question who you really are
Cal:babe its still me..the same man you fell inlove
with
Me:no..no you are not,i fell inlove with..i..(crying)i
don't know who you are anymore
I sat down and started crying,my life was like a
chapter from a book or movie.I want a normal life
with a normal man,a man who wont fake his own
death God knows whatelse he has done in life.
Me:i think we should stay a few days apart,i need to
digest everything
Cal:babe don't do this to us
Me:(whipping my tears)you did this to us,not me
Cal:Phatsimo if you walk out that door there is no
coming back
Me:thats the best news IV heard come out of your
mouth today
I grabbed my bag and looked at him,the man i loved
so much was a monster.
Cal:if you walk out that door babe its over
Me:i dont take orders from you or anyone,stay the
hell away from me
Yes i meant every word i said,i want nothing to do
with Calvin,i suffered because of his greed,i was
beaten to a point where i broke ribs because he stole
the Mexican Guy's drugs,his family watched me cry
when yhey knew he was not dead,Calvin is still the
same guy who made me pregnant and told his family
before me.Tell me who in their right mind will walk in
a lion's Dean fully aware.
Calvin made me loose the most caring,nice,honest
loving guy IV ever meet.He made me question my live
for Botshelo,i gave up on us that easily because i
thought Cal and i had something.Now i was damn
sure i was done with Calvin.I opened the door and
walked out,i thought he would come running after
me but he didn't.I got in a taxi and went home,on the
way i texted Botshelo that i want us to try to make
things work between us.He asked about Calvin and i
told him he was a closed chapter.
5 months later
It was the twins second birthday,this time around we
had it at Lion's park.It was the first time i have seen
Calvin after the whole thing at Makoro Lodge.He
looked pretty built,with muscles here and there,i saw
a tatoo of the twins'names on his shoulder.Cici
jumped on him and hugged him
Cal:how are you baby
Cici:i missed you,when are you coming to visit
Cal:(looking at me)i dont know,make sure you give me
your number okay
Cici:okay..put me down i wanna go swim
He put her down and she ran to the pool,she was so
grown up bathong ngwanake,still loved money and
fancy things and spoke a lot.Cal put his hands in his
pocket and looked at me
Cal:Babe
Me:Calvin
Cal:long time
Me:indeed
Cal:how have you been?
Me:am alive that's all thats important,life is life
Cal:mmh
My phone ran,it was Bae he had went to
Mogoditshane to buy a car to use as a taxi,got to say
things were looking up for him.
Me:(to Calvin)excuse me
Cal:we still talkin
I gave him an evil eye and went to the pool side
where there were few people.He followed me
Me:hey bae
Bae:i bought a Run X
Me:how much?
Bae:25 gran,brand new
Me:can't wait test drive it,guess we will leave sunday

I hung up and found Calvin looking at me with a
straight face,i walked to his mum and picked up
Channel,she had big afro and a small pink ribbon to
tie it into a knot.Calvin picked up CJ and looked at
me.
Cal:see what we created,this guys are diamonds,look
how cute they are
Me:yeah they look like their daddy
Mrs:let me take some photos
She took photos,the party was a success,the kids had
fun,i did too.Around 6 the hired combi came to pick
the kids up,Cal's mum left with Ciara and i had no
choice but to ride with Calvin in his car.Everyone left
before us
Me:we better hurry up
Cal:going somewhere
Me:am here with my boyfriend
Cal:did i ask you who you here with?
Me:mxm
Cal:so you have started to disrespect me
He drove into the main road ,instead of taking the
Gaborone route he went south
Me:(angry)and then?
Cal:have to do something in Lobatse
Me:why didnt you tell me this before i agreed to ride
with you
Cal:you didn't ask
Me:wow this is so typical of you..if i had known i
would have gone with the kids.Just drop me here i

Cal:i cant leave you in the middle of nowhere
Me:(shouting)just please please drop me here i don't
want to go to Lobatse with you my boyfriend is
waiting and my phone battery is empty..
Cal:he will have to wait a bit longer

Episode 69
Me:(shouting)Calvin stop this car right now
He hit on the accelerator and held my hand,i pulled it
from him.He smiled at me,before the Mogobane turn
he stopped the car and looked at me,i unhooked the
seat belt and grabbed my bag,the door was locked.
Me:why?
Cal:what?
Me:what did i ever do to you?
Cal:you honestly want a future with that looser?
Me:actually i do,he is my looser
Cal:you know you and i will always have a bond
Me:you and i don't have a bond Calvin please let me
be
Cal:how could you say that,you still love me that's
why you didnt stop me that night
Me:that's when i thought i loved you truth is i dont
anymore,you and your family are a bunch of lying
thieves,you are criminals and i..i...don't want to mix
myself with that
He unlocked the doors and held my hand,he looked
straight into my eyes.
Cal:am not one to go back on my word but iv decided
to give you a second chance,if you get out of this car
we are done for good
Me:you said that the last time and here you are,i dont
need your second chance because i dont want
you,get that through your thick skull
I opened the door and went outside.After a few
minutes the car hit a u turn and went back to
Gaborone,wow so typical of him.After a few minutes
i got a ride back yo the city,the man tried to make
small talk but i was not in the mood,he dropped by
Game City,i took. Combi back to the hotel.Found Bae
taking a shower,i joined him and we showered
together and ordered room service
Bae:what happened to your phone?
Me:battery died
Bae:thought so,tell me how was the party?
Me:can we talk some other time am not feeling well
Bae:(checking my temperature)what's wrong?
Me:I think its all the food i ate
Bae:(massaging my tummy)sorry
After he ate finished eating he watched TV while i
took an early sleep.I was tired and angry at
Calvin.Later he joined me
Bae:(whispering in my ear)how are you feeling now?
Me:am okay
I felt his hand touching my cookie,to be honest i was
not in the mood,Calvin spoilt my mood.
Me:bae
Bae:mmh
Me:am not in the mood
Bae:what did i do?
Me:its not you
Bae:Calvin?
I kept quiet,he faced the other direction and i heard
him taking a short prayer.Woke up the next day to
Calvin's call,i ignored it and put the phone on silent.
Bae:ke mang?
Me:Ame
Bae:why are you not answering?
Me:am not in the mood
Bae:so you angry at everyone because of Calvin?i
dont even want to know what he said or did
I kept quiet an went into the bathroom,i peed as he
watched me
Bae:what time are you going to pick up Cici?
Me:before noon,the sooner we leave
Bae:did you guys do anything?
Me:(surprised)huh
Bae:i have to be sure
Me:mxm i didnt sleep with him
Bae:if you say so
I took a shower and put on a short jumpsuit,changed
and wore a shot dress.Arrived at Mochudi during
lunch time,we had lunch then Calvin called me to his
father's study room.He locked the door and picked
up,to be honest i wanted him so bad but couldnt get
myself to admit it.He put me on the table and took of
my panty,it was exiting,felt like naughty
teenagers.He spread my legs nd looked at my
"treasure"I closes my eyes.
Cal:babe open your eyes
I opened them and we looked into each other's
eyes.It felt wrong yet so right.He put one finger in
and licked it,it turned the shit out of me.He did all
that looking into my eyes,he picked the panty and
gave it to me.
Cal:get dressed
Me:what?
Cal:your boyfriend will finish off what i started
Okay what just happened here,he unlocked the door
and joined everyone outside,when i came out
everyone was looking at me like they knew what just
went down.He was standing with some nice looking
girl.
Me:can we talk,somewhere private?
Cal:am listening
Me:somewhere private
Cal:whatever you want to say you can say it infront
of her..

Episode 70
I was so embarrased,never thought the day will come
when Calvin will treat me like every other person,you
know i always thought i had him wrapped around my
little finger,i was wrong.The lady he was with
excused herself,am sure she felt bad for me.We
stood there without saying anything,he looked at me
like i disgusted him.
Me:what just happened in the study?
Cal:you have a boyfriend akere Phatsimo?
Me:so?
Cal:you made it fully clear you don't want
me..(serious face)i gave you two chances and both
times you left,i told you i don't like to beg,i never beg
He left me standing there like an idiot,did this mean i
have lost him for good,my thoughts were interrupted
by Lefika's Cal.
Me:mmh
Lefika:where are you?
Me:(angry)since when do i answer to you?
Lefika:mxm kante aren't you supposed to bring Ciara
over.
I had completely forgot why i was there in the first
place,i apologize and hung up.I said goodbye to Cal's
mum ad the twins.I drove slowly back to GC,my mind
was back at Mochudi,who was that lady with Calvin?
I dropped Cici at Lefika's and went back to the hotel.I
looked at Botshelo and he disgustes me.He smiled at
me and a fakes a smile back.
Bae:should we hot the road?
Me:mmh?
Bae:are you okay?
Me:yeah why?
Bae:you seem off
Me:(faking a laugh)am fine really,stop imagining
things and lets go
He took our bag and we checked out,we drove to
airport junction to buy a few snacks and water.He
played Naija Music along the way,i love that music
but not that day.I pretended to sleep,i was thinking
about Calvin,i didn't know why all of a sudden i
wanted him back.I opened one eye and looked at
Bae,he smiled at me
Bae:i know you not asleep
Me:how did you know?
Bae:yph sleep with your mouth open but this time its
closed
We laughed,he looked so cute,he was funny and
everything IV ever wanted,he was not a criminal and i
enjoyed being with him,when we were together we
always talk like best friends and played like
teenagers.Apart from being kind i loved him,like
really,he was my destiny.For a second i forgot about
Calvin.
Bae:Princess
Me:mmh
Bae:i love you
Me:i love you too
Bae:really?
Me:ao you already doubting my love?
Bae:just that...ever since Calvin came back i..aah am
just being insecure,i trust you
Me:mmmh trust me,babe kana ke gore Calvin is
my..he is...we were so happy and inlove that's why i
still have unresolved feelings,i loved him so much and
my heart broke when i found out he lied about being
dead,i want so hard to hate him but...its like
everytime i see him i love him more,and today he,he...
Before i could finish the sentence i realised i was
telling Botshelo more than i planned to,who the fuck
tells their boyfriend how much they love their ex,i
was lost in my thoughts i said too much,i looked at
him and my heart broke.He was concentrated on the
road.I stopped talking.I took out my phone and
started taking a video.I faced the camera at him
Me:babe say something
Bae:(laughing)say what?
Me:(looking into the camera)this is me and bae's first
road trip together,babe hle rra say something
Bae:(laughing)this is so stupid babe aah i dont even
know what to say.
Me:tell me how much you love me
Bae:i love you so big,words can't explain how big
Me:hahaha
I switched the camera off when we reached a road
block,it was nothing major.I took out a bag of Zimba
chips and started eating,i fed babe since he was
driving.We parked at Majestic for a few minutes and
took lots of pictures.I was trying to take my mind off
Calvin but the heart wanted what it wants.I drove
until we reached Lehlakane,it was already dark so
Botshelo drove until Maun.He dropped me off at
home and went to his house,i could tell he was still
hurt about what i said about loving Calvin.
The next week passed by,i wanted to call Calvin but
what do i say?what about Botshelo?Thursday in the
morning i decided to call Calvin.He answered after a
few rings
Cal:hello
Me:hi,how are you?
Cal:am good
Me:ohh okay just wanted to say hi
Cal:okay
Me:how are the twins?
Cal:they are fine
Me:ohh,il call your mum to check in them
Cal:good idea
Me:okay bye....wait...Calvin wee
Cal:mmh
Me:i can't do this anymore,i love you and i want you

Cal:..........
Me:hello
Cal:i have moved on babe,you should try to make it
with your boyfriend
Me:(crying)please babe i love you don't to this to us
Cal:there is no us Phatsimo
I heard a woman's voice talking in the background,i
looked at the time,it was not even half past 6.Did
that mean she slept over?
Cal:IV got to go,have a nice day
Me:Calvin
He hung up,i sat on the bed and cried myself to
sleep,woke up around 10,i called in sick at work.I
packed a few clothes in my bag and sent Botshelo
that i was going to GC,i switvhed off my phone incase
he tried to call.Lucky enough the 11am bus had not
left.
We arrived before midnight,i took a cab to Calvin's
house.The security guy let me in,i knocked for a few
minutes with no reply.I switched on my phone and
called his number,he didn't answer.I received 8 SMS
es from Botshelo but i did'nt read any of them.I didnt
want to feel bad for what i was about to do.I sat
down on the stoop.The door opened,he stood there
only in his pyjama pants.I stood up and faced him
Cal:(surprised)Phatsimo
Me:i travelled a thousand kilometers to beg you to
take me back..
I kissed him before he could reply me,i dropped my
bag and hugged him.I closes the door with my leg,he
picked me up and threw me on the sofa..just when i
thought i was making progress i heard a woman's
voice.
Woman:Calvin..!!

Episode 71
I looked at Calvin expecting an explanation.He went
to the bedroom and i followed him,there was a
woman in his bed,she was completely naked,she
covered herself with a sheet when she saw me.
Lady:Calvin! !
Cal:She is my baby mama
Lady:Call Dumi please
Cal:no please you will leave in the morning
I went back to the sitting room and picked my
bag,nnyaa here i was fighting a loosing battle.It was
officially over between Calvin and I.I could see it in his
eyes,he spoke with no affection.I slowly opened the
door hoping i will hear him stop me.I called
Naomi,she was obviously sleeping.Cal and Naomi
were the only people i knew in Gaborone,well i mean
the ones i could call incase of emergency.
After calling Naomi many times i had no choice but to
call Lefika,i told him to come pick me up at Calvin's.I
hung up before he started telling me things.I sat
down and cried,you know you are really hurt when
you try to hold in but you end up crying out
loud.After 20 minutes Lefika called that he was at
the gate.I shamelessly walked to the gate,kept
hoping Calvin will open the door to check up on me.I
got in the car and started crying.
Lefika:do you know what time it is?
Me:(crying)sorry
Lefika:bona i have a girlfriend next time you have a
fight with your boyfriend don't call me.You are lucky
because she is not around or else i wouldnt have
come.
Hee bathong who told Lefika i wanted him
back,mxm.We drove to his place in silent.He showed
me the spare room,i didn't even sleep,my heart hurt
so much,i wanted to die.It was now around
2.Botshelo called and i hung up on him,he called
again.
Me:hello
Bae:are you okay?
Me:(crying)i...no am not
Bae:i will come get you
Me:(crying)no thanks i will take the next bus home
I hung up when someone knocked on the door,Lefika
got in,he sat on a chair and faced me
Lefika:what happened?
Me:(crying)i dont want to talk about it
Lefika:mme gone this wouldn't be happening if you
had gotten back with me that time
I cried out loud,it freaked him out and he left,i cried
myself to sleep,ke gore ke fila gore if you have never
been in the situation you wont understand.Woke up
hours later to Cici making noise.The room had a
shower so i showered before i went outside.Lefika
and Ciara where in the kitchen making breakfast.She
ran to me exited.
Cici:mama when did you get here
Me:this morning,just came to say hello am going back
Cici:aah mma i miss you
Me:i will come see you next week
Cici:promise?
Me:i promise babe
We hugged and she went back to what she was
doing.
Me:(to Lefika)can we talk
Lefika:sure
Me:thanks for last night it will never happen again
Lefika:it better not
Me:bye
Lefika:wait Tsitsi
Don't remember the last time he called me by that
name,i let out a fade smile remembering how much i
used to love the guy,kana he was my first and you
know what they say about your first.I turned around
Me:mmh
Lefika:next time call me again
Me:believe me there wont be a next time..
Lefika:i never got the chance to apologize...i treated
you badly,you didnt deserve that.You had always
been kind to me.You deserve a loving guy..
I pinched myself a little incase i was dead or
dreaming,Lefika apologizing,hee i needed a film crew
to capture it all.He hugged me.Hee thusa..But he was
right i deserved a loving guy,i had one back at home
but was too blinded by lust.I felt bad about
everything bad i did to Botshelo.I sent him an SMS
that i was taking the 11 am bus back home and he
should wait for me.He replied with a "I love you".
Right after the bus took off before we passes sebele
Calvin called,one heart said to answer another one
said to ignore him.I ignored...
He sent an sms that he will be waiting for me at his
house until 2..mxm

Episode 72
I wanted to hear what Cal will say but then again..he
treated me like a nobody just this morning,he didnt
care where i slept or what happened to me after i
left.I wanted so badly to stop the bus my mind told
me that would be the most stupid thing IV ever
done.I looked at the time,it was quarter past 11.I
closed my eyes trying to forget Calvin.After a few
minutes i stood up and stopped the bus.I wanted to
get out but my heart told me not to.Eventually i got
off and took a taxi to Cal's house.The security let me
in,found him sitting on the sofa watching TV.
Me:Calvin
He turned around when he heard my voice,he looked
so serious it scared me.He showed me where to
seat,waitse gore Love is another thing,just minutes
ago i hated the man with all my heart,i wanted
nothing to do with him anymore now here i was,i just
wanted to get ontop of him kiss and make love to
him.I sat on the other sofa and faced him.
Cal:i told you to seat here
Me:i came here to talk,it doesn't matter where i seat
He went to lock the door and sat next to me,he
breathed down my neck,my whole body shivered.
Cal:(whispering)you know what i love most?
Me:mmh mmh
Cal:A woman who respects her man
He went back to were he was sitting and instructed
me to seat next him using sings.I went to seat next to
him.He knelt before me and took off my shoes and
took off my Jean.Okay..!!!
He undressed me without saying a single
word,waitse for the first time in life i felt so
cheap,just this morning he was sleeping with another
woman now he wanted to do me.Nnyaa hle i refuse
to be one of those women who loose themselves in
the name of love.
Me:Calvin stop
He stopped and looked into my eyes,waitse this was
abuse jaanong,Calvin knew he had me right where he
wanted me to be and was gonna go with everything
he did or said.Mme hela not now,nxa..I came here to
talk nothing else.I grabbed my top and covered my
breasts.
Me:(serious face)i came here to talk
Cal:did i say we were going to talk,am the one who
called you here remember.
Me:you know what its fine calvin you can go around
sleeping with every girl and see if i care,you know
what...you can fuck yourself am done here..
He grabbed my arms and pulled me closer to him,my
heart was beating fast,he picked me up and pinned
me against the wall,i did mention that i was naked
right,he spread my legs and dropped me on the
table.He turned me around,if felt so right yet so
wrong,i wanted to stop him but my whole body was
shaking.It was so rough and exiting at the same
time.I felt his finger playing with my clit,damn it was
raining down there.He kissed my back while his other
hand cupped my boob.I wanted him so badly,i
lowered my upper body exposing my cookie
more.After a few minutes i felt his dick slide in.I let
out a small moan,he went faster until i felt like peeing
myself,my whole body was week,he pulled out and i
squirt all over him,that's so embarrasing on the lady's
side but on the man's side its an achievement,it was
the first time in my life to squirt and it felt so nice,he
turned me around to face him,i closed my eyes.
Cal:babe open your eyes
Me:(shaking my head)mmh mmh
Cal:Phatsimo open your eyes
I felt his dick slide in again,i opened my eyes and we
made eye contact.He let out a cute smile.Gawd..!! He
thrust in slowly then went faster while still looking
into my eyes,that shit is sexy.His cute face turned
ugly and i felt him become soft in me.Every guy
becomes ugly when they cum,wonder how the ugly
ones look,hahaha.He picked up and we went to the
shower his cum dripping down my thighs.
He put a shower cap on me and scrubbed my back.
Cal:i love you
Me:i love you too
Cal:are you on the pill?
Me:no
Cal:don't take the morning after
I turned around and faced him,hee is this guy crazy
am not even 25 and i have 3 kids,nnyaa ao!! I didnt
even know where i stand with him.
Me:Calvin am not having another baby am sorry
Cal:that baby is what's gonna bring us together,its
either you keep the baby or you forget about me
Me:ae i already have 3 am not even 30
Cal:its your choice,and don't sleep with your
boyfriend while you carrying my child
Me:(shouting)we don't even know if am gonna be
pregnant
Cal:it happened with the twins,you got pregnant the
first time we had unprotected sex..i told you i don't
like a woman who shouts at her man
Hee waitse this was a punishment from God
himself.That moment i regreted getting off that bus...
Episode 73
I left for Maun that night,had a terrible headache
because of what Calvin said,ke gore jaanong nna i
was his baby machine,agg if its love then fuck
love.Botshelo sent an SMS asking how far i was and i
told him the bus was stuck in Serowe and we were
probably going to arrive late.If there is anything i
hated about myself right now was how i was treating
Bae,the guy would go heaven and hell for me but
here i was choosing the most stupid man i know,one
who wanted me to be his subject.Waitse if i had
known this how my life was gonna turn out then i
would have never started dating.First it was
Lefika,then Calvin and i finally meet my Mr Right then
Calvin shows up from the dead.I was starting to think
God doesn't want me to be happy.
Arrived in the morning and took a taxi home,i had
switched off my phone.I left it home and went to
work,after work i passed by Botshelo's school.I tried
to hug him but he brushed me off.
Bae:tell me the truth,where did you go?
Me:what?
Bae:you know what just to make things easier for
both of us,its over.
Me:(confused)babe lets talk first before you make
drastic decisions
Bae:you know i looked like a fool waiting for you at
the bus rank yesterday,the 11 am bus arrived but
you where not inside,which bus did you take?
First rule about lying,cover all your bases.I didnt think
he would wait at the bus rank for me after i told him
the bus broke down,then again i did switch off my
phone,he couldn't reach me thats why he went to
wait for me.Eish bathong this demon i had in me that
made me make bad decisions had to be casted out.
Me:let me explain
Bae:please you dont have to explain yourself to me
Me:(crying)just listen to me please
Bae:what listen to you tell me how sorry you are,at
the end of the day you are going to go back to
Calvin,let me walk out while i still have my dignity.
Me:(crying)Botshelo
He got in his car and left,okay i didn now it would
hurt this much waitse,i shamefully walked home.I
switched on my phone and found Botshelo's SMS
from last night,bathong waitse am a bad person.I
cooked and went into town to buy the morning
afters.Another child was just a no no.Came back
before dark and found Ame watching TV alone,we
were staying alone now that Ciara was not around.I

Cal:now don't take those pills you hear me
Me:yes daddy

Episode 75
1 MONTH LATER
Ever thought everything is back in plan kante you
were just fooled into believing it?Ke gore have you
ever loved someone so much it hurts,so much you
loose yourself in the process,so much your goal is to
make then happy no matter what?Have you ever
loved someone that much?if you haven't then you
wont understand why i decided to keep the baby,you
wont understand why i gave up on the perfect
guy,you wont understand why i was submissive to
Calvin.
I walked naked from the bathroom to my bedroom
passing Ame in the passage,she just looked at me
and said nothing folding her arms.
Me:if you have something to say just say it
Ame:(attitude)believe me you don't wanna hear what
i want to say
Me:am sure i can take more insults,shoot am
listening
Ame:i still can't believe you decided to keep the
baby,you are not even 25,Calvin is just using you its
so sad you can't see it,am sorry to say this but i wish
that baby dies,i wish you..
I interrupted her evil thoughts with a hot slap,she
pushed me and i fell on my butt.She stormed in her
room and slammed the door.I stood up and went to
my room,sat on the bed and tried Calvin's number.It
didn't go through,his phone had been off for a week
now.I packed an overnight bag and went to my
dad's.I needed fresh air from the whole thing and
from Ame.Found My step mother cooking,helped her
and went to lie down for a few minutes,she brought
me a watermelon.We sat under the tree and sliced it.
Mam:so how far?
Me:(mouthful)with what?
Mam:the pregnancy
Me:(surprised)you can tell?
Mam:its almost showing
Me:(choking on the watermelon)what?
Mam:i am a month pregnant i can't be showing
Mam:one??? Mmh let me see your breasts
I showed her my breasts and she shook her
head,elders and their theories.
Mam:if you are not 3 you are 4
Me:no,that can't be i am a month pregnant IV been
getting my period until last month
Mam:okay
Me:i am serious,did you hear from someone,was it
Ame (pissed)ofcourse its Ame and her big mouth
Mam:Ame didn't tell me anything,i am a grown up i
can see things and no matter how much you deny it
that pregnancy is not a month
I changed the subject into livestock and weather but
my mind was not in it,there was no way i was more
than a month pregnant,i took the morning afters
that time,and i haven't had sex with Calvin in 3
months..i...Botselo? ? No way...we always used a
condom except for that one time but am sure he
withdrew,yeah he did withdraw am sure...or not!!
No this can't be happening right now,finally Calvin
and i were making things work and if this baby is not
his then...No way,it can't be Botshelo's baby.
I left for maun early the next morning and went
straight to a private hospital for a scan,had to make
sure.The doctor applied the jelly thing on my
stomach and did the ultra sound.
Doc:you can see the baby right
Me:its a baby already?
Doc:yes..i think you are 10 weeks or so
Me:(sitting upright)10 weeks thats like in 2 months
Doc:yes,almost 3 months
Me:but i have been getting my period it only stopped
last months
Doc:it can happen yes for the first 2 months that you
get your period,its called...
Me:(interruption)no please tell me you are joking
Doc:mam why would i joke about this?
Me:just last month i took the morning afters..
Doc:they work in 72 hours,obviously you were
pregnant by that time but i urge you not to take
anything that is not subscribed by the doctor
because it can harm the child.
Me:(nodding)i heard you
Doc:eat healthy and exercise
Me:i sure will
I whipped the jelly off my stomach and went
outside,my head was all over,if am 10 weeks then it
is Botshelo's baby.I sat down on the benches outside
and cried my eyes out.This can't be happening,not
now.I tried Calvin's number again and it didnt go
through.I walked to the taxi rank and tool a taxi
home.
Spent the whole day in my room,the least i could do
for Botshelo was tell him,it was time i stopped acting
selfish about the whole matter,am sure Calvin will
understand,its not like i cheated on him or something
and i didnt know i was pregnant when i slept with
him.
I sent Botshelo an SMS asking if we could meet
later,he didnt reply,i sent another one telling him it
was important,he still didnt reply.
Woke up from my nap to an international call.I didn't
answer the first time,it called againg and i answered.
Me:hello
Voice:hey babe
Me:(happy)Calvin??
Cal:am away on business,am in Nigeria
Me:yeah i tried to call you a few times
Cal:how is my little man doing?
Me:(touching my flat stomach)little man?
Cal:yeah,my little man
Me:what if its a girl
Cal:no babe its a boy
Me:(long silence)do you love me?
Cal:what?
Me:do you love me?
Cal:i heard you the first time,why do you ask me
that? You know i love you Phatsimo
Me:(crying)then why do i feel like i give up a lot for us
to be together?
Cal:what are you talking about?
Me:why another baby Calvin?why did yoy force me
into having another baby? I already gave you two
Cal:you will understand one day
Me:(crying)do you love me?
Cal:yes..
Me:how much do you love me?
Cal:babe are you okay?
Me:its not your baby
Cal:what?
Me:(crying)i am 3 months pregnant
Cal:(shouting)what the fuck?
Me:do you love me?
Cal:......
Me:Well i have my answer then..i guess we cant be
together now that am not carrying your child
Cal:did you tell him?
Me:not yet
Cal:don't tell him
Me:are you crazy?he will figure it out aniway
Cal:then you will have to tell him we hooked up when

Me:(angry)i am not going to lie to him about the
baby,its his child
Cal:well then i guess we both know where that leaves
us
Me:(crying)i can't believe you right now,wow just
wow..bye Calvin
Right after i hung up my little step sister knocked and
told me a man was looking for me outside..I wore my
gown,found him sitting on the benches outside
Me:hi
Botshelo:hello
Me:want something to drink?
Botshelo:no actually am in a rush my dad was
admitted at the hospital yesterday,am goung to

Botshelo:you wanted to tell me something important
Me:oh yeah,i...i am....Ame wants to start taking
driving lessons and i recommended you
Botshelo:oh..okay thanks
Me:sure bye
I watched him get in his car and drive off,Gawd was i
doing the right thing..??

Episode 76
Few days later
The last time i spoke to Calvin was when he asked me
not to tell Botshelo about the baby,but what kind of
a person would i be denying a father his right to his
child,Botselo had been nothing but loyal and loving
to me the least i could do was tell him the baby was
his but how do i do that,i tried the last time but
failed.I so much wanted to tell him.I decided i will just
send him an sms its much simple that way.
"I am 10 weeks pregnant which is almost 3 months
now and the baby is yours"
He didn't reply,waited and waited until i went to
bed,still no reply the following day.I passed by his
school after work but he was not around.Days
passed without a reply,well if you tell someone
something that big and they don't reply or take long
the answer is obvious.
Tuesday around lunch time he sent me an SMS
asking to meet.I didn't reply him,akere le ene he took
his time.Found him waiting for me at home.I greeted
him and went inside,came out a few minutes later
and sat next to him.
Botshelo:are you sure its my baby?
Me:(offended)what?
Botshelo:you slept with Calvin too
Me:wow you really think i would lie about you being
the father?
Botshelo:i just want to know how sure you are
Me:i said i am 10 weeks,we were together 10 weeks
ago,we had unprotected sex
Botshelo:i pulled out
Me:what are you trying to say?
Botshelo:i am saying i pulled out,i didn't ejaculate in
you
Me:i slept with Calvin a month back if it was his child i
would be one month pregnant
Botshelo:that time in Gaborone?
Me:(offended)i didn't sleep with Calvin,i slept with
him a month back
Botshelo:i just hope you know this changes nothing
between us
Me:(attitude)did i say i want you back?
Botshelo:just putting it there
Me:(standing up)i don't need a man to be happy,every
relationship ends up with a baby or lies.I am tired of
all that i just want to focus on myself for once.
Botshelo:mmh
Me:just so you know too,its your child
Botshelo:my dad passed away
Me:what? Why didn't you tell me?
Botshelo:everytime i see you Phatsimo i...i want to
stay far from you as possible because no matter how
much i hate you i just can't.I still love you and it...
Me:(hugging him)am sorry no wonder i didn't see you
last week,when is the burial?
Botshelo:we buried him last saturday
Me:am so sorry he was a nice man,i remember that
time he...(paused)...i know how you feel,i lost a parent
too.
Botshelo:IV got to go
Me:i am sorry i was rude earlier
Botshelo:its cool
He hurried to his car and drove away,shem poor
Botshelo.I tried calling the number Calvin called me
with but it was no longer in use.Called his number but
he didnt answer.Waitse sometimes i wonder if it was
all worth it,was Calvin worth it?
1 MONTH LATER
Still not a single call from Calvin,sometimes ga go
fedile go fedile you can't force things that are not
there,but i wonder what changed so instantly,i used
to say jump and he would say how hi,now he didnt
even care about me,mohlofo hela jalo,no way there
must be something that makes him act that way
towards me.No one changes that easily,it takes
months and years to get over someone.I called his
number and he answered.
Cal:am in a meeting i will call you back
Me:are you still getting married?
Cal:not now
Me:just answer yes or no
He hung up,mxm what i need in my life is a prayer
from powerful man of God.Why was i after a man
who didn't give a rat's ass about me?
He called back after hours.
Me:are you still engaged?
Cal:no
Me:what happened?
Cal:we are married
Me:(choking)what?
Cal:we are married..
Me:when?
Cal:2 months back
Me:Calvin wee tell me you are kidding me,please
Cal:hey i tried to make things work for us but you are
just too stuborn,if you didn't tell your boyfriend
about the baby i would be getting a divorce right now
but no Phatsimo you never listen to me
Me:(crying)i dont understand
Cal:i told you to trust me
Me:can you please tell me what's going on
Cal:Layla is my boss's daughter
Me:who is Layla?
Cal:my wife,i had to marry her to get at the top,she
was my ticket to the top but she always made it clear
that if i do something crazy then its over between
us,if you were carrying my child she would be
divorcing me right now.
Me:why didn't you tell me earlier?
Cal:you never listen to me
Me:(crying)so its reallyvover this time?
Cal:yes
Me:you are giving up that easily?
Cal:there is nothing i can do now,its over

Episode 77
5 MONTHS LATER
I sat on the sofa taking off my jacket,it was hot inside
but very cold outside,Cici had fallen asleep on the
couch,i threw the jacket at her and she woke up
rubbing her eyes.Shem my daughter was so grown
up hey,it felt like yesterday when i held her in my
arms forthwith first time.You know sometimes i felt
like i loved her more than the twins,i dont know
maybe its because i didn't see the twins often,i
havent seen then ever since the birthday party.She
knelt down and took off my boots
Cici:Mama when is the baby arriving?
Me:i don't know,am so tired wish she could come
today
Cici:Mummy
Me:mmh
Cici:i love you
Me:aww i love you too
Cici:promise me you wont love her more than me
Me:i promise i won't
Cici:she is going to stay with us right
Me:yeah
Someone knocked and Cici ran to answer the door,i
heard her greeting the person and they came into
the living room
Botshelo:hey
Me:hi
Botshelo:(giving m the plastics)here,everything
Me:(opening the plastic)thanks
Cici:what is it?
Me:fish
Cici:(happy)can we cook them now?
Me:am tired,Ame will cook when she gets home
Botshelo:i can cook now
Me:no thanks
He took out 5 pula from his pocket and gave Ciara to
go buy mabudula,she put on my jacket and ran
outside.
Botshelo:what have i done now?
Me:nothing
Botshelo:come on i can sense some tention here
Me:its not what you have done its what you are not
doing
Botshelo:tell me i hate to see you sad kana
Me:you are ne'er around when i need you,you come
here at your own time,i have asked for the fish last
week and you are only bringing them now.I wanted
them then not now
Botshelo:i was buisy the car...
Me:(interrupt)you know what i dont even want to

Botshelo:i can't come here everyday you summorn
me kana Phatsimo ka bo ke le buisy
Me:whatever
Botshelo:i am here now
Me:its not like am your girlfriend or anything its cool
you can go,i am just your baby mama
He stood up and took out his wallet,he put 600 pula
on the table and left,he came back.
Botshelo:(angry)stop acting all innocent here,this is
suppost to be the greatest time in our lives but you
messed up everything by going to Gaborone and
sleeping with Calvin.Its not my fault that we are not
together,you made your bed now lie in it.
Me:(shouting)i am carrying your fucking child can't
you just forget the past and focus on the present,are
you going to bring up kgang ya Gaborone everytime i
point out your mistakes?
Botshelo:Ee i also know you are not my girlfriend
stop bringing up kgang ya gore you are not my
girlfriend,i know.
I stood up and i felt a sharp pain in my stomach,i
walked to the kitchen but the pain wouldn't let me
move my legs.Botshelo helped me back to the sofa.
Botselo:did you just pee on yourself?
Me:mxm..(looking on the floor)my water broke
Botshelo:(panicked)is it a good thing?
Me:(calm)mxm wa peka the baby is on the way
Botshelo:then why are you not screaming?
Me:mxm go and get me my bag and the baby stuff in
the bedroom
He hurried and came back with the bags,everything
was packed.I walked to the car as he ran to the
tuckshop to get Cici.He drove us to the hospital.Okay
this is a bit weird,i mean the last time i gave birth the
pains started earlier before my water broke,now i
had only light pains and nothing more,no
contractions.
1 hour later
The midwife checked how far i was with the
contractios,nothing.She took off her gloves.
Midwife:Mam am afraid we will have to perform a c
section or the baby will have an infection.
Me:can't you'll like inject me with that thing go
ntsenya mo dihlabing?
She went out without saying anything andcame back
with the doctor and the ultrasound machine,they
checked the baby
Doc:her heartbeat is very low and she is not moving
Me:(panicking)is she going to be okay
Doc:Nurse take her to the theater now
Me:(crying)tell me she is fine please
Doc:mam dont panic,we are going to sedate you and..
Me:(crying)is my baby okay?
Midwife:mam please if we dont perform the c section
the baby might not make it.
I kept quiet as they pushed me into theater,they
injected me with something and i felt calm.My eyes
were blury,kept hearing noice and seing lights.I woke
up to someone touching my hand.I slowly opened
mine,his eyes were red like he had been crying
Me:hey where is she?
Botshelo:...(silent)
Me:Botshelo please tell me my baby is fine
The midwife walked in and asked Botshelo to step
outside for a minute.
Me:(crying)please tell me she is fine please tell me my
baby is fine,tell me she is okay..
Midwife:Mam please your blood pressure is high
right now stop crying..
Me:(crying)no please tell me she is fine..

Episode 78
Midwife:I am sorry mam her heart beat was slow it
was too late
Me:(crying)no no please tell me she is fine please tell
me she is okay
Midwife:i am sorry will you like to see her?
Me:no please,please tell me my baby is okay
She went outside to call Botshelo,his eyes were
swollen and he looked tired.He held me as we bofh
cried.I know i did lots of bad things in life but God
didn't have to punish my baby for them.
The doctor came in with her wrapped in a blue
receiver that Botshelo's mother had brought for her.
Me:(crying)i don't want to see her
Botshelo:(taking the baby)she...she looked so cute
and tiny
Me:take her away from me
Doc:just hold her for a few minutes you will feel
better
Me:(crying)no i will only feel better if she wakes up
Botshelo tried to give her to me but i folded my
arms,i felt responsible for her death,how could she
live when i slept with Calvin and drank morning after
pulls while pregnant.This was all my doing,i killed my
baby by obsessing over a stupid married man.
Botshelo:I wanted to call her Lerato
Midwife:that's a beautiful name
Botshelo:she was created out of love
He gave the baby back to the midwife ame held me in
his arms,we kept quiet.
Me:(sobbing)i killed her
Botshelo:you didn't,you loved her when she was not
even born
Me:God is punishing me for what i did to you
Botshelo:no please don't say that,God has a bigger
plan ahead
Me:(crying)right now i feel like God hates me
Botshelo:don't say that please its not your fault,let
me go and drop Cici home,i will be back in less than
an hour.
He left and the doctor came in and sat next to me.
Doc:should we wait for the father?
Me:no just tell me whatever it is
Doc:the baby was not fully grown,her liver couldn't
function well and her heart was not beating at a
normal rateif she had lived she would have been put
in an incubator until she was grown.
Me:i dnt understand i was already 8 months and a
few weeks
Doc:yes but she was small
Me:(confused)what?
Doc:she didn't fully grow to be born,in medical term
call it...
Me:(interrupting)you mean she was a premature
Doc:no but if she was born maybe 2 or 3 weeks later
she would have been fine
Me:ok
Doc:i recommend you both go for counseling
Me:mmmh
Botshelo came back later,i told him exactly what the
doctor told me.I stayed in the hospiral for a few days
then went home to burry the baby.It was so
emotional and scary,i hate how we have to bury the
baby inside the house,that shit is scary,i mean how
do i sleep at night knowing there is a dead baby
besides me.The elders forced me to sleep next to
where she was burried on the floor for a whole week
while they gave me some sour bitter tasting
traditional medicine and they forced me to cut my
hair.
I got to say the whole baby thing brought Botshelo
closer together which was a good thing if i wanted a
man or a relationship but right now i felt like i wanted
to take a break from everything and focus on
myself.I wanted to re group and find peace.I had
made mistakes,lots of them and i felt like being single
will be best right now.
I stayed indoors for a full month with no contact with
the outside world.Thanks to social media i was not
bored to death.The day i was allowed to go outside
my dad slaughtered a goat for me,my step mum
cooked dikgobe and seswaa,Botshelo's mum came.It
was nice being outside and talking to
people.Botshelo took his mum home and came back
when it was late.He forced me to go for a ride with
him.He drove using the road we used the first time i
learnt how do drive.
Me:you want animals to come and eat us akere
Botshelo:do you know where we are?
Me:(smiling)we are still in maun right
Botshelo:you are a typical motswana waitse this is
where my car broke down that time when...hahaha
you remember?
Me:(laughing)no i dont remember continue
Botshelo:ae the mma ao
Me:oh i remember,that time when i thought we were
stranded in the middle of a forest,when i was
panicking kante wena you had planned the whole
thing so you talk to me which you didnt.(laughing)i
will never forget that day
Botshelo:(smiling)you narate it so bad,i thought you
will think it was romantic but it was going to be
awkward when we tell our grandkids how things
went down...(pause)....i am sorry
Me:(teary)no its cool,we will have another baby one
day
Botshelo:We?
Me:yeah...well i dont mean us,not me and you..i mean
i will have mine and you will have yours.
Botshelo:(taking my hand into his)lets start afresh
Me:Botshelo this is not a movie,we can't start
afresh,those things dont work in real life
Botshelo:lets give us another chance to make things
work this time
Me:i love you,so bad but i am not the right woman
for you,you deserve someone who loves you whole
heartedly,someone perfect,me i am far from perfect,i
don't want to ever hurt you again.
Botshelo:oh
Me:right now i want to focus on me alone,i want to
be single
Botshelo:Calvin?
Me:he is my past,he is married,i don't do married men
Botshelo:well i hope you find someone who deserves
your kindness
Me:me too
Botshelo:yeah(kissing my hand)if you ever need to
talk i am always here
Me:sure,me too
**awkward moment**
Me:we should go back
Botshelo:definately
We drove back listening to some deep house
music,he kept smiling at me and i smiled back.He
droped me at the gate and drove away,i smiled
walking in the house.
Episode 79
3 MONTHS LATER
I walked around the empty space,the neighborhood
was nice,it was a place one can call home,it has less
criminal records and they had a neighborhood watch
comity.
Me:the plot is big and the price is reasonable,lets do
the paper work.
Lady:yes please i need the money as in yesterday.
Me:you still haven't forgot pur arrangement right
Lady:yes,reasonable people are thieves this days,you
give them money for a plot that isn't even theirs
Me:yeah thank you
Lady:we will talk during the week,bye
Me:bye
Lady:do you want a lift?
Me:no i have to go somewhere from here,il take a
taxi
She waved at me as she reversed into the main road,i
looked around the plot picturing it built,me playing
on the green grass woth the twins and Ciara.Just me
and my kids,talking about kids the twins were
coming here for the first time for Christmas.I called
Cal's mum.
Mrs:hello
Me:Dumelang
Mrs:how are you?
Me:am good,so when arethey coming?
Mrs:Their dad is not around at the miment but he
said he is coming back next week,i think next week
before friday.
Me:oh okay i cant wait to see them
Mrs:yeah am sure they miss you too
Me:they dont know me
Mrs:ofcourse they do
Me:we will talk again later,bye
Mrs:bye
I hung up and walked to the main road,receives a call
from Calvin and i ignored it,the last time i answered
him he shouted at me for wanting to take the twins
for christmas,i mean they stay with his mother,he
sees them everyoday and when i ask for a week with
my kids am a bad person,mxm that's the kind of
negativity i didnt want,its so funny everytime i call
his mum he calls right after,believe me she was with
Calvin on the mission of not wanting me to have the
kids,for heavensake i carried them for 9 months and
gave them life,i know i haven't been the best mother
to them and they probably dont know i am their
biological mother but i was trying to step up,they
should appreciate my efforts.
He called again and i answered
Me:hello
Calvin:how long are you taking the kids?
Me:hey wena am no danger to my kids stop asking
me stupid questions,they will be here until i fill like
sending them back.
Calvin:How long then,we are going to the falls maybe
i can come by when we get back to take them and
save you the trip of bringing them back.
Me:enjoy the falls Calvin and dont worry about me.
Cal:am trying to b nice here
Me:you know how Lefika was don't be that guy,am
just askin for a few weeks with my kids,i didnt say
iwas taking them for good,well i mean i am going to
take them one day but not now,maybe next year
around this time but not today.
Cal:what?
Me:you heard me,they are my kids too ypu know
I hung up before he said anything,i was lying,was not
planning on taking the kids from his mum,she helped
me when no was,he took care of them from birth and
she loved them more than her life.Sometimes people
just dont understand,you can't hurt the person that
was always there for you through droughts and
floods.For me that was Cal's mum.
I arrived home a little late because i was doing some
window shopping,yeah my budget was tight this
days,its called growing up.I found Cici baking some
scones and Ame cooking.i sat on the sofa going
through channels.
Ame:so did you like the plot?
Me:yeah
Ame:is it big
Me:yeah
Ame:are you horny?
Me:yeah

Ame:did yph see Botshelo?
Me:no
Ame:did yph speak to Calvin?
Me:mmh
Ame:yeah that's the reason you are not in the
mood,what did he say?
Me:he really didn't say anything bad
Ame:he didnt have to say something bad,just him,he
makes you angry
Me:really?
Ame:yeah,do you still have feelings for him?
Me:do i? I don't know,he is one person i want to hate
so much but i cant
Ame:(standing up)you still love him
Me:i hate that i love him

Ame:(rolling her eyes)really?
Me:am telling you,am saving myself for my husband
Ame:you go girl but you are missing out
Me:i have had my fair share of good sex,with
Botshelo and Calvin
Ame:Lefika?
Me:aah we were young and it was just sex,but it was
okay.We loved eachbother thats wat made it fun
mma hela now when i think aboutvit it was the most
boring sex IV ever had.
We laughed out loud,my sister and i were back to
talking terms after our little fight.
Ame:Calvin ene?
Me:kante aren't the food going to burn while you
listening to my sex stories?
Ame:no gape Cici will call me,tell me about Calvin
Me:he is a good kisser,and when we made love it was
so emotional,and the sex was off the hook.This one
time we did it at his parents'house in the kitchen in
the middle of the night
Ame:sis Phatsimo
Me:mma he put me on the kitchen counter and
fucked the living out of me covering my mouth with
his hand.
Ame:heedu i need to try that
Me:just don't do it in our kitchen
Ame:Botshelo ene?
Me:(laughing)o rata dikgang
Ame:comeon tell me
Me:he..haha Botshelo is a good fucker gape he has
big dick that makes a little pain when he
penetrates.He is romantic and sweet,he used to bath
me and carry me to the bed,then he would...this
other time we had sex mo sekgweng hela ko
morakeng wa bone,it was adventuras dipodi le
dikgomo di heta re sena nako.
I kept going on and on abut Botshelo,we did have
some good times hey am not gonna lie,Cici called
ame that her pots were burning,i went into the
bathroom to take a leak.
We had our lunch then watched tv the whole
day,Potso came later that evening with his little
sisters.Eish to be honest the only person i liked from
that other side of the family was the youngest,Lebo
and then maybe Potso,the others,i just pretended to
like them,i hate people who come to our house and
make noice,go into the kitchen and eatvour
food,change channels while we still watching and
seat with their feet on the sofas,me,Cici and Ame
were the only ones allowed to do that.I went into my
room.
I logged into Facebook and Botshelo was online,it
had been long since i posted something,i posted a
Photo taken some days back,got to say i was back in
health and looked super cute with short hair.
Botshelo was the first to comment then Kitso and
others,he reacted with a heart on my photo.I inboxed
him saying hi

Episode 80
We drove to his place,ijoo the last time i was

opened the door for me and closed it.,kgm he looked

Botshelo:juice or fizzy?
Me:fizzy,don't you have wine or something strong

Me:okay red rose it is

Me:no am not,i just took out one slice
Botshelo:forgot you can finish the whole pizza by

Me:(smiling)never forget that
He gave me a glass and sat next to me on the bed,he
moved back to the couch.
Me:just because i said we can only be friends doesn't

Botshelo?
Botshelo:well am single and you are single and we

Me:(laughing)dude you wanna..ae ka gana
Botshelo:comeon just friend nothing more
Me:those things dont work in real life,we have sex
then develop feelings again,then we date and break
each other's hearts.No i dont want to go through
that route again
He took the glass and put it on the chest of drawer
and put his hand on my thigh.
Botshelo:i promise i wont develop feelings
Me:(looking into his eyes)promise?
Botshelo:(kissing my neck)yeah
Me:wait are we allowes to date other people?
Botshelo:(kissing my neck)yes
Me:just sex

Me:okay this can work
He helped me take off my pants and i helped him
take off his.
Me:wait,do we stop when we meet other people
Botshelo:(sucking my nipples)mmh
He reached for his drawer and took out a condom,he
put it under the pillow.He kissed my breasts going
down to my cookie
Me:wait ga ka shaver
Botselo:i can see
He kissed my bellybutton while his index finger
played with my clit,shit this shit felt great.i opened
my legs wider and he went up kissing my stomach up
to my mouth.I played with his dick and balls,he took
the condom and gave it to me indicating that i put it
on.
I got ontop of him and put it on,i sat on it ame
watched it slide in,we both let out soft moans.
He pressed me harder on the dick and pounded me,i
stopped because he was doing all the work,i hate it
when men do that,i mean am ontop of you,let me do
my magic wena just enjoy the show.
Me:lesa go nkunyapa
Botshelo:(laughing)sorry
Me:let me do my shit okay
I turned around and did him a reverse
cowgirl,Gawd..he picked me up and made me kneel
down on the bed and took it from behind.He played
with my clit while he humped me.Shit did i mention
how i hate those fart like noises.We both cum at the
same time.We remained like that for a few seconds
then i slept on my stomach.He took out the condom
and wiped himself,he threw me the towel.
Me:wipe me
Botshelo:(wiping me)that was fun
Me:very,do we cuddle or something
Botshelo:(sleeping next to me)yeah we cuddle after
sex
I put my head on his chest,he let down the mosquito
net,we kept quiet until we fell asleep.Woke up
around 4 to him kissing my back,we had our morning
glory and he took me home.
Botshelo:you didn't have to leave this time
Me:i dont want people all up in our business

Episode 81
The door opened and Ame stood by folding her arms
like she wanted to say something.
Me:and?
Ame:(whispering) it's past 5
Me:so?
Ame:(smiling)why are you happy? (Sitting on the bed)
who did you meet and what did you do?
Me:(standing up)i met no one and we did nothing
Ame:that smile on your face says a lot,sale ka bona o

Backdoor and greeted her,she didnt respond back.
We drove into the main road going east

Wife:i can't go to the cattlepost with you what if i get
bit by a snake or contact malaria.

changed her mind and wanted tobtag along.Cal did a

Calvin pulled me away from he
Boi:i contact believe you used to date this low life
Me:just so you know he loved this low life and was

bratt no wonder he drove all the way from Gaborone
to come and make love to me,you are so childish.No
wonder he doesnt want to have a baby with you,you
have bad genes.
I could see she wanted to cry,i only said that to hurt
her feelings because isaw her medical card in the car
that she had fertility problems.She got in the car and
started crying,i got at the back and we drove to
maun in silence.
Me:make sure you bring them back before 7 please
Cal:okay

Cal:i promised her ice cream
Me:okay drop me right after that turn
He dropped me along the way and i went to
Botshelo's place.I knocked once and opened the

Botshelo:hey,you didn't tell m you were coming
Me:why do you look like you are dissapointe to see

me,i continued walking and ignored the driver.
Driver:sorry

Driver:thanks
Me:sure
I arrived home earlier than i hoped,had a long warm
bath,i had the house all to myself,Ame was out and
Cal took the kids for ice cream.I sat on the kitchen
counter only in my panty and bra.I sliced myself a
piece of cake while going through my Facebook
timeline.I went to my room and sat on the bed
eating.Botselo had been online 2 hours ago,kept
thinking who was that girl,she was young and
innocent.
Calvin brought the kids an hour later,i wore a nighty
and went outside.
Me:thanks for taking them out
Cici:mama we had so much fun
Lebo:thanks malome Calvin
They went into the house with the twins and i walked
him to his car.
Cal:what you said earlier,you hurt Boi's feelings
Me:hey how do think i felt when she said my kids
stink
Cal:she didnt mean it like that?
Me:well nna i meant it like that
Cal:you are heartless
Me:(attitude)ooh okay you know something about

Cal:You can't blame her for our problems,how can

Me:(rolling my eyes)please am so over you,you and i
don't have problems and if she dare says something
bad about me or my kids i will skin her alive,am

Cal:we had something special
Me:once upon a time,you are married now and i am

Me:how isbthat any of your business?
Cal:can't you just answer me with yes or no?
Me:its none of your business really,bye Calvin
Cal:you look nice
Me:i know
I walked back to the house wiggling my butt a
little,he got in his car and left.Lebo and Cici bathed
the twins and i tucked them in,i sent Potso an SMS
asking him to buy wine,he didnt reply.I sat watching
TV,the time had not moved a little,it was not even 9.
I checked Botshelo's last seen on watsapp,shit what
was so important that he didnt log in.I wanted to call
him but didnt want to seem like a jealous girlfriend
because i was not even his girlfriend.Fuck it i called
him and he didn't answer.
I fell asleep on the couch and woke up to Ame making
noise.She was dead drunk and with some guy
Ame:(drunk)oh hey sis,waiting for me
Guy:(sober)she is drunk
Me:you are?
Ame:you dont know my boyfriend,his name is

Me:do you know what time it is?
Owen:am sorry the club just closed

Botshelo:you are not talking to me
Botshelo:can i explain now?
Botshelo:Princess
Me:who is she?
Botshelo:oh you can talk now
Me:explain
Botshelo:she is just someone i know,she asked if she

Me:did you guys have sex?
Botshelo:i didn't expect it but yes,i mean i thought

Me:are you stupid,a man and a woman dont just

Botshelo:when i said chill i didnt expect sex

Botshelo:we are not really exclusive

Me:was it good?
Botshelo:it was okay
Me:are you going to sleep with her again?
Botshelo:should i?
Me:no
Botshelo:okay
Me:shapo
Botshelo:shapo
I put the phone on charger and went to bed,kept
tossing and tossing thinking about Botshelo and that
girl.Agg hated how i felt at the moment,now i was
jealous and falling inlove with him again.
I was the first one to wake up,i made English
breakfast and soft porridge for the kids then cleaned
the house.I fed the twins and bathed them.
Ame woke up with her weave all in her face,she
drank lots of water and slept on the floor
Ame:(to Lebo)take the kids outside i dont want noise
Me:hangover?
Ame:a bad one
Me:where is your boyfriend?

Me:come in
My eyes got to be deceiving me

Episode 84
Me:are you lost?
Girl:Can i ask you something
Me:yeah
Girl:are you and Botshelo like dating or something
Ame:(attitude)why do you ask?
Me:nana how old are you?
Girl:i am 21
Ame:and you come here and ask my sister if she is

Girl:thank you i though you were going to chase me
out,(happy)i just wanted to be sure you guys were
not an item because i..because he is my first and its
kinda of a big deal.
I let out a fade smile and walked her out,shem she
was just too sweet and brave,she would be a nice
girlfriend,just the kind that Botshelo needs and i
refuse to be in the way of his happiness.I sat on the
sofa and buried my head in my palms.
Ame:i wish i was a virgin when i was 21
Me:me too
Ame:where do you think we got this bad genes
Me:definately from dad's side of the family
Ame:(laughing)are you okay?
Me:no i just gave up on my sex mate how can i be?
Ame:and he will never come back no offence kana
jaanong he is eating a fresh one.
Me:why do people say no offence before they insult
us? So wa re am not fresh?
Ame:come on you know what i mean
Me:she is sweet
Ame:so you going to find yourself a new sex mate or
what?
Me:i don't want to talk about it
I went to my room and threw myself on the bed,mxm
i should nt have agreed to the stupid idea in the first
place now my heart was torn into pieces.
Later on i bathed the kids and cooked lunch,being a
mother is not an easy job,people were going out and
enjoying festive while am stuck at home with 4
kids.Later on Lefika came to pick up Ciara and Lebo,i
watched TV with the twins until late,right after they
fell asleep someone knocked at the door.
Me(looking at the time)Ame?
Voice:no ke Botshelo
Me:(happy)what do you want?
Botshelo:bula hle mma before magodu ba Boseja ba
nkgama
Me:no
Botshelo:hle mma this thing is heavy please
Me:(smiling)what thing?
Botshelo:hle mma
I opened the door and he stormed in empty
handed,he smiled and kissed my cheek,i let out a
small smile
Me:your girlfriend was here
Botshelo:she told me
Me:so are youvguys like dating now
Botshelo:i need your blessings first
Me:you have them then
Botshelo:are you sure?
Me:i was once her,and its not like you and i were
dating it was just sex so fine.
Botshelo:(kissing my neck)are you sure
Me:(enjoying)mmh
Botshelo:(looking into my eyes)i love you
Me:thanks
Botshelo:we can be more than just friends if you
want
Me:(pulling myself away from him)i told you am not
looking for a relationship,you came here this time to
ask me all that?
Botshelo:i came here because i wanted to do this to
you
He lifted me up and kissed my neck,he pinned me
against the wall and the towel fell down.He laid me
on the sofa and kisses my tummy going down,i let
out a small moan.
Me:wait,i dont want to be the other woman
Botshelo:(playing with my clit with his tongue)mmh
Me:(moaning)just so you know i...
He tongue fucked me and i kept quiet,i felt the tip of
his penis knock on my treassure and i let out a loud
moan.
Me:did you lock the door?
Botshelo:(breathing heavily)mmh
Me:(breathing heavily)you got a condom?
Botshelo:no,should i stop
Me:(closing my eyes)you are stupid don't stop
He carried me to the door and locked the door while
his other hand supported me.He pinned me against
the door and penetrated.He went in slowly then
faster.He put me on the sofa and spread my legs
admiring my cookie.Ame's words came into my mind
that he tastes a fresh cookie.I closed my legs
Botshelo:are you uncomfortable?
Me:what's her name?
Botshelo:who? Are we going to talk about another
girl while we have sex
Me:did you enjoy?
Botshelo:not as much as i was enjoying a few
seconds back
Me:(smiling)i love you
Botshelo:i love you
He slid his dick back in and i closed my eyes,sex is an
emotional thing,if you don't like someone no matter
how good they are you wont enjoy but when you do
it with someone you love,no matter if they have a
small dick and cum after 2 seconds you are still going
to enjoy.I felt his dick become soft in me.He picked up
my towel and we wiped ourselves and cuddled on the
sofa
Me:can't believe you did that..
Botshelo:o tla reka di morning after akere princess

Episode 85
Me:(getting up and wrapping myself with the
towel)you should go
Botshelo:this time?
Me:Before Ame gets home and sees your car
Botselo:so what if she sees me?
Me:i don't want her to see you.
Botshelo:(putting on his boxers)okay
I walked him to his car and ran back to the house.I
locked the door and went to sleep.
**IN THE MORNING**
Ame:did Botshelo come here last night?
Me:no why?
Ame:just askin
Meyou dont just ask,why?
Ame:i thought i saw his car coming from this side fa

Me:maybe she was coming from his girlfriend's place

Ame:you love him and he loves you back why dont

Me:(walking outside)i told you am not looking for a
relationship right now
Ame:(following me)are you trying to convince me or

Me:(attitude)sometimes i feel like you forget that am
your older sister
Ame:ijoo mma i was trying to help you,its okay then

**ONE WEEK LATER**
On our way to Gaborone,we were sitting on a 3 seats

happen in the future.I hurt him once,now he got a
sweet nice cute girl that he deserved.
We arrived around 4,Calvin was waiting for us at
Pilane. They ran to him and he picked them both at

about it.We found his mum and wife in the kitchen
baking.The twins ran to her and she picked up
Channel

We continued talking about this and that,she called
Dumi that they should come for dinner.I took a long
shower and wore my dress that i left there,it was a
bit short now that i had bigger hips,bit not too
short,just above knees.
I logged into watsapp while they were buisy with

Botshelo with the girl,yes am the one who gave him a

I pulled my hand from him a sat on the stool facing

smile then touched his abdomen,he had blood in his
hands..
Me:are you okay? Is that blood?
Cal:(sitting on the bed)no..shit...!!

something
Me:(scared)Cal??
Cal:i am dying
Me:(shaking)what? What are you talking about? Do
you have your medicine with you? (Panicking)oh God

He stopped talking,i placed his head on my chest and
felt his temperature.He was burning.I made him lie
comfortably on the bed and ran to the reception.
Me:mam my..my friend in room 23 is sick he
collapsed,he is bleeding
Reception Lady:mam breath please i will call an
ambulance in the mean time i will call our nurse to
attend to him
Me:(crying)please hurry
I ran back to the room,he was not breathing fine and
he was burning up.I put a cold towel on his head and
on his stomach until the nurse arrived.
Nurse:(chewing gum)what's wrong with him?
Me:(pissed)i should be asking you,why didnt you
bring your equipment?
Nurse:i thought it was one of those incidents lekgoa
le kgamilwe ke tapole a bo gotwe emergency
Okay i would have laughed if we were in a different
situation but right now i wanted to strangle the
lady,she was making jokes while Calvin might be
dying.The door opened and a tall black good looking
man burst in followed by 2 paramedics with a
stretcher.
Doc:(checking his heart beat)he is breathing
Me:we were just talking then he started looking pale
and then i saw all this blood but he was okay a few
minutes back
Doc:(checking his BP)was he in an accident recently?
Do you have his medical cards?
Me:(searching his bags)there is no card in here
They put him on the stretchers bed and pushed him
outside,we got in the ambulance to the
hospital.Everything was happening so fast.They took
him to the emergency room
Doc:is he your husband?
Me:no he is my baby daddy
Doc:okay can you please inform his family
Me:(crying)what's wrong with him?
Doc:i domt know at the moment,i will get back to you

The doctor came out and took off his mask.I stood up
and meet him halfway
Me:how is he?
Doc:did you call his family?
Me:yes i called his mother,is he going to be okay?
Doc:i am afraid we will have to transfer him to
Marina
Me:(crying)is he going to live?

blood.
Me:(sitting down)oh my God..please save him

He saw Dumi then stopped talking,mmh waitse i

getting involved in Calvin's lies and secrets again.I
looked at Dumi and saw it in his face gore he didnt
want Letso to tell me.I took my bag and walked out

I dialed Botshelo's number,it ran twice and he
answered.
Me:(crying)can you come pick me up ke fa
Letsholathebe
Botshelo:(worried)are you okay?
Me:il wait by the gate
I sat on the stoop waiting for Botshelo.That moment i
realised just how much i lived Calvin and Botshelo.I
didn't know whom i loved the most but what i knew
was i didn't want to loose any of them.
He arrived a few minutes later with his girlfriend,agg
she was starting to bore me.I got at the back and
askes him to drive me home.We drove in silence until
i got home,Botshelo followed me to the house.
Botshelo:(hugging me)what's wrong? Oh my God did

vasectomy,he doesnt want to have kids with your
stupid ass
She hung up,okay that was rude of me considering
that i was lying,i called her back and she didnt
answer.I sent an SMS saying that i was sorry and i
lied.
Am not a rude person,just don't know why i felt the
need to always step on the poor girl's toes.
I had not gotten any report about Calvin since the
day his family took him.His mother's phone was not
available,i didnt have Dumi or Letso's numbers.
I heard people talking outside,they knocked and i
ignored them.Was not in the mood for people,it was
Potso and his sister.I went into my room for a nap.
I woke up to Ciara pulling my toes,i let out a small
smile,she wasall grown up bathing ngwanake
Cici:mama

threw herself on the bed and hugged me

I ignored her and cooked us lunch after we bathed

house.I found Ame back home with her boyfriend.
Me:hellos
Ame:how is he?
Me:i dont know,no one is talking to me but if he was
dead am sure his mother would have called.Waitse i
went through the same road that time i thought
Calvin was dead am so done with them.I could see in
Dumi's eyes gore they didn't want me to know what
was wrong so m gonna respect that the less i know
the better
Ame:Cici o kae?

Ame:he knows
Me:wow ofcourse you told him

and vest.Don't ask me why i washed it,we all know
anything is possible especially when a man and a
woman are alone.
Botshelo picked me up exactly at 7,we drove to KFC
and bought one family meal.We drove in silence until
we passed the last fueling station using the Ghanzi
road.
Me:re ya kae?
Botshelo:somewhere
Me:ae tell m ekare we going out of Maun jaana
He turned left using a gravel road,there was a full
moon,he parked in the middle of a football ground.He
opened the door for me,aww he is sucj a gentleman
He took out a blanket and a cooler box from the
car,we sat on the blanket enjoying the chicken and
chips.He gave me a bottle of beer and we drank from
if litsening to Jordin Sparks' No parade...
Botshelo:hle mma lets have a baby
Me:(splashing out the beer)what?
Botshelo:you heard me
Me:no
Botshelo:maybe if Lerato was alive you would love
me like you love Calvin..
Me:(teary)ao rra?

Episode 88
Botshelo:its the truth gore you have never stopped
loving him,only if you can love as much,i can prove to
you that am a better man than Calvin
Me:i love you and if we are going to get back
together it wont be because o feel sorry or because
of the baby,i just want my space right now,lately i
have made some bad decisions IV hurt you and am
not proud of it,i can't do that to you again.
Botshelo:am asking for one last chance hle ma if it
doesn't work out then atleast we would have tried.
I kept quiet as i looked up to the sky and sipped my
beer.We remained silent listening to the birds and
the music from the car.It was awkward nyana
because its like we didnt know what to say to each
other.
Me:so if we get back together what about your
girlfriend?
Botshelo:i will handle her
Me:how?
Botshelo:dont worry how,she is too childish she will
understand
Me:and she has been good to you,she is the kind of
girl you deserve
Botshelo:you are right?
Me:i am?
Botshelo:i deserve her but i don't love her as much as
i love you
Me:ohh okay

Ame:the way you describe him,him not having a

Ame:(standing up) or maybe he has a desease that
has no cure

I did my make up and styled my weave into small
waves.I wore a short military green dress and black
heels.Bokang called that he was outside,Ame

Bokang:its cool
His family lived in a very big house,you could tell gore

marriage problems,you almost got me in trouble
Cal:i promise it will never happen again
Me:it better not,bye
I put my phone in the charger and went into my
room,i took off my clothes admiring my body.I ran
into the living room for my phone,i took a few
selfies.Every girl has nudes in her phone but wise
enough not to post them on social media.
The following week i didn't hear a word from
Bokang,to be honest i didn't have the hots for the
guy but he was cute yes and had a nice body,he is
someone i can kiss but he looked like a fuck boy.He
called Friday evening and i didnt answer him,he sent
me an SMS that he was out of town and will see me
the next day.I watched TV alone until 3 am.
I logged into watsapp and Botshelo was online,how i
wished we could go back to how things were.I sent
him an inbox sayin hi
Botshelo:hi
Me:i miss you
Botshelo:i miss you too
Me:we should hang out someday
Botshelo:yeah
Me:buisy now?
Botshelo:no why?
Me:i am home alone,we can hang out now
Botshelo:i don't want to get my hopes up for nothing
Me:ao rra you know...
Botshelo:(interrupt)yeah i know you dont want to
date anyone right now but am asking myself if
anyone is me or everyone including Calvin and your
new boyfriend
Me:what?
Botshelo:yeah o saw him dropping you off yesterday
Me:him and i are just friends,nothing more kante i
camt be friends with men and not fuck them,am tired
of you always assuming that am sleeping with every
guy i meet
Botshelo:sorry mma
Me:that's not an apology,goonight
I went to bed angry.Woke up and did my laundry
then went to check on my dad.I came back in the
evening,Ame was still not home and was not in the
mood to go out with Potso.I was free so i called
Naomi,she answered the second ring
Naomi:(breathing heavily)hey can you call me after
20 minutes
Me:are you having sex?
Naomi:(laughing)no
Me:sies why did you pick up when you having sex,bye
I hung up,waitse girls do things where do you get the
time to answer a phone when you buisy doing all
that.
I sat here thinking about the last time i had sex it has
been almost 3 months now.There was only one
person i wanted to have sex with but he annoyed the
hell out of me.Calvin and Bokang were out of the
question.I called Lefika
Lefika:hi
Me:hi when are you bringing Cici?
Lefika:Sunday
Me:okay
Lefika:okay
Me:umm can i ask you something?
Lefika:mmh
Me:would you have sex with me?
Lefika:we have had sex before so yeah
Me:okay
Lefika:you want us to have sex?
Me:no i was just asking
Lefika:okay
Me:bye
Lefika:bye
I just wanted to be sure he still found me attractive
thats all.Bokang called that he was on his way over.I
checked if my breath was fine.He came with his other
friend,a male one.
Bokang:this is my best friend Nigel
Me:(extending my hand)nice to meet you
Nigel:likewise,you are much hot in person
Me:aww thanks
Nigel:i have heard a lot about you
Me:pitty i cant say the same
Bokang:oh there is nothing to say really he and i are
just friends
Nigel:we should go out
Me:you should have brought your girlfriend along
Nigel:(looking at Bokang)oh she is not around at the

Me:okay where are we going?
Nigel:where do you want to go?
Me:am not in the mood for a crowd
really,somewhere quiet
Bokang:okay i know just where
Me:okay let me go and change
I changed into a summer dress and sandals.Before i
got in the car my phone rang
Me:hi
Botshelo:am coming to your place,you home?
Me:i was just on my way out
Botshelo:can you give me two minutes of your time

Me:(looking at Bokang)okay
Bokang:we are going to the lodge,you will find us

Me:okay
Nigel:don't be in a rush
Me:(laughing) he is just a friend

I wet back to the house,Bogshlo arrived after a few
minutes,he had a bucket of chicken from KFC and a 2
litters fanta pineapple.
Botshelo:Ame o kae?
Me:i dont know
Botshelo:(locking the door)good we have the whole
house to ourselves.
He French kissed me
Botshelo:i love you
Me:(smiling)m too
Botshelo:lets start over
Me:Botshelo...i
He interupted me with a kiss
He picked me up and walked to my room,he opened
the door with his foot and threw me on the bed.

Episode 91
**A month later**
Me:what?
Bokang:would you marry me?
Me:yeah i heard you the first time! I mean we hardly
know each other,we habe never went on a real date
alone or kissed,this is too sudden
Bokang:so what if we haven't kissed or had sex? It
makes this exiting
Me:(confused)i don't know,i mean you are nice ame
everything but i want my first marriage to be my only
marriage
Bokang:are you saying no?
Me:am just not ready and am not sure we habe
reached that stage
Bokang:i don't want to sleep with you before we get
married because i want our first time to be special
I moved up and down,he was still on his knee,okay as
much as i wanted to get married one day i didn't
think i would be this soon gape nna i didnt know
Bokang ame i were dating,don't get me wrong mme
hela who in their right mind marries someone they
have never kissed,i always felt like i was a third wheel
whenever we went out because Nigel was always
with us.
He stood up and sat on the sofa and looked at me
Bokang:you can say no you know,i can't force you to
do anything you don't want to...
Me:umm..okay i like you,a lot but this is a bit sudden
Bokang:so its a no
Me:(holding his hand)maybe next time i will say yes
Bokang:no its cool
Me:you sure am sorry
Bokang:(disappointed)its cool
Me:(smiling)maybe we should try dating before we
marry
Bokang:(smiling) i though we have been dating
Me:aah we are always with Nigel
Bokang:(smiling)okay we should go out just the two
of us
Me:that would be nice
Bokang:want something to eat?
Me:yeah
Bokang:okay give me 20 minutes
Me:we can not have sex but you can still kiss me
Bokang:okay
Me:i don't have a bad breath do i?
Bokang:(putting on am apron)no you don't
Me:(laughing)okay
He fixed us something to eat while i went through
the channels,i ama big fan of Keeping up with the
Kardashians,well am a big fan of reality shows.
We sat on the Matt watching
Me:(mouthful)nice,you are a great cook
Bokang:thanks,what are we watching?
Me:KUWTK
Bokang:i fund nothing exiting with watching people
live their life
Me:they have exiting lives
Bokang:really?
Me:yeah
My phone ran and i put it on silent
Bokang:aren't you going to answer?
Me:no
Bokang:who is it?
Me:my ex
Bokang:what does he want?
Me:i dont know
Bokang:maybe its important
Me:no,i will call him back
We finished eating and he drove me home,he kissed
me on the cheek and we said goodbye.
I hardly slept kept thinking about the
proposal,maybe Bokang was my mr right,i mean he
was everything i was looking for in a guy but i didn't
love him.Love is the most important thing in a
relationship.
I spent the whole week woundering if i was ready to
be someone's wife,what about Botshelo?He was a
big part of my life,if i agree to the marriage that
would kill him.Eish how i was 15,no kids and no
stress sa bo men.After work i took a taxi to his work
place,he had moved his driving school closer to the
mall.
Me:(hugging him)hey stranger
Botshelo:akere ee you are not answering my calls
Me:phone yame e senyegile touch pad
Botshelo:(laughing)i have used that excuse
before,nna i thought you heard something jaanong

Me:something like what?
Botshelo:something like I have impregnated
someone
Me:you would have told me akere
Botshelo:(looking down)i dont know how it happened
Me:what?
Botshelo:Kaone is pregnant
Me:what?
Botshelo:i dont know how...
Me:(interrupt)let me tell you how,you put your penis
in her vagina
Botshelo:i know but we have never...
Me:(interupt)you know what save it,its not like you
and i are dating or something,you don't have to lie to
me
Botshelo:(shouting)can you listen to me just once
Me:(crying)i thought we were making us work,why
did you do it?
Botshelo:you know none of this would have
happened if you had given us another chance
Me:(angry)did i send you to go sleep with her without
using protection? Botshelo you know we have been
having unprotected sex,what if you had infected me
with STI's or HIV,what's wrong with you?
Botshelo:can we talk when you have calmed down
Me:(whipping my tears with the back of my hand)we
have nothing to talk about,congratulations on the
baby,you have always wanted one
I walked to the road and took a taxi home,i couldnt
stop the tears,i didnt know it would hurt that much.
Taxi driver:men problems?
Me:no
Taxi driver:sorry
Me:its fine thanks
I locked myself in my room and cried myself to
sleep.He sent an SMS that he was outside.I looked
throught the window and saw him sitting in the
stoop.
Me:what so you want?
Botshelo:i love you
Me:am mad at you
Botshelo:i know you are,open the door
I opened the door and he hugged me,we sat on the
sofas silent.After a few minutes
Botshelo:i am sorry
Me:don't be
Botshelo:i always thought i was extra careful
Me:how far is she?
Botshelo:3 months
Me:mmh congratulations
Botshelo:i hope this baby changes nothing between
us
Me:this baby changes everything,i am a mother,i can
never put another woman what i went through ka
Lefika just go be a good father and boyfriend.
Botshelo:(looking into my eyes)i wish i could turn
back time,i would turn it back to when you first came
for your driving lessongs
Me:(smiling)i hate you
Botshelo:you are just angry
Me:why does it hurt so much?
Botshelo:sorry princess
Me:i wish we could have gotten back together ra
togela di game
Someone knocked at the door and got in before i
could answer them,it was Bokang,i introduced him as
my friend and Botshelo as my friend too.
Botshelo:we will talk later,bye
Bokang:you don't have to leave on my account
Botshelo:no i have to get back to
work,(handshake)nice to meet you
Bokang:likewise
Me:sooo what brings you bye?
Bokang:(kissing me on the lip)i missed you
Me:(smiling)someone is in a good mood

Episode 92
Me:just give me a little time to digest this,but
seriously why are we in a rush to get married?
Bokang:because i want to make an honest woman
out of you
Me:you haven't even meet my kids
Bokang:because you don't want me to meet them
Me:(smiling)no its not like that,am just careful not to
introduce every guy i date to my kids.
Bokang:so you have been around a lot?
Me:not really,IV only slept with 3 guys in my life
Bokang:not bad
Me:you?
Bokang:(smiling)IV slept with a lot
Me:ofcourse you have
Ame walked in holdings big plastic,she threw it on
the chair ame rested on the sofa
Ame:God am so tired,my back hurts
Me:you don't even know how to greet?
Ame:(looking at Bokang)am so sorry i didn't see

Bokang:(smiling)how far?
Ame:6
Bokang:you should take plenty of rest
Ame:please tell that to my sister,she works me hard
Me:comeon just washing the plates,dude i do your
laundry
Bokang:(to Ame)i asked your sister to marry me and
she refuses to
Ame:what?
Bokang:you can ask her
Ame:Phatsimo this opportunity comes up once in a
lifetime,o tsoga o re o loilwe when no one wants to
marry yph and all your age mates are married
Me:am just saying its early,maybe later yes not now
Ame:(to Bokang)will you marry me instead?
Bikang:(laughing)id be honoured
Bokang left around 8,it was nice hanging out and
getting to know him without Nigel around.He called
me when he got home and later on to say
goodnight.Atleast he was trying to be a good
boyfriend.
**2 weeks later**
I bumped into Botshelo and Kaone doing some
grocery shopping.
Me:hi
Kaone:(rubbing her visible tummy)hello
Botshelo:(hugging me)how are you?
Me:(looking at Kaone's big tummy)am fine hey,you
look big how far?
Botshelo:3 almost 4
Me:ao when i was carrying my twins at 3 months my
tummy was not that big,or is it twins
Kaone:haha babe let me go to the megazines
Me:are you sure.....never mind
Botshelo:bua
Me:don't get me wrong mme hela if she is not
carrying twins that's not your baby,she is big almost
6
Botshelo:(offended)maybe you should'nt have said
anything
Me:am sorry,i guess you have a big guy in there
Botshelo:Il see you around
Me:(holding his hand)i am sorry..
Botshelo:cool
I continued doing my shopping but Kaone's big
tummy kept appearing in my mind.Nnya i have been
pregnant twice and that stomach was not of a
almost 4 months foetus.Legale i should learn to mind
my own business.
Bolang picked me up after i finished everything,we
drove to my house first then went to the beach.We
chilled with his colleagues.
Wabo: Mona BK i never thought we would ever meet
your girlfriend
Tshepo:i always thought Nigel was your girlfriend
Bokang:(laughing)i hope this puts the rumors that am
gay to rest,(kissing my hand)as you can see i have a
beautiful fiancée..
Wabo:ga o die nako Mr
Me:(smiling)he doesnt
Tshepo:Congrats man,you caught a pretty one
Wabo:ke gore i cant even get a text back ame wena

Tshepo:o skhokho skeem saam
We continued with the drinks until it was late,i drove
us home because Bokang was drunk,i took off his
shoes and made him lay on the bed
Me:you buisy anouncing our engagement when i
didnt even say yes
Bokang:(drunk)please marry me i cant go on like this
anymore
Me:(confused)go on like what?
Bokang:i wish i can be honest be with you,you are
such a nice person and i hate that am doing this to
you but you have to marry me please
Me:mxm you are drunk,don't puke on my bed
He pulled me closer to him and French kisses
me,okay i didnt see that one coming.I kissed him
back.He took of my top an i helped him get
undressed.He kisses my stomach going up to my
neck,okay he was a good kisser and turned me on.I
put my hand in his boxers and he was hard,i gave him
a hand job,its such a turn off to give someone all your
best job and they don't respond.
I got ontop of him kissing his stomach up to his lips,i
reached for the drawer and took out a condom,i put
it on him,as i was about to he stopped me,WTF
BK:i don't want you to be one of those women babe
Me:(confused)huh?
BK:can we wait until our wedding night
Me:(getting of him)yeah its cool
BK:thanks for understanding babe
Me:(smile)its fine
We cuddled and woke up late the following day,we
bathed together and he went home,no one
mentioned what had happened the previous night,it
was so embarassing.
Ame:sooo did you do it?
Me:yeah
Ame:how was it?

Episode 93
A passed at Botshelo's house after work,found him
sleeping under the mophane tree.
Me:hi,you sick?
Botshelo:no
Me:(feeling his temperature with my hand)you don't
look well
Botshelo:(shouting)i said am fine
Me:uhu sorry rra,was just checking you because you
didn't go to work and i thought you were sick or
something but its cool if you are not
He kept quiet,after a few minutes i said goodbye and
left,he slowly walked to his room and i followed him.
Me:you are not okay
Botshelo:(loosing breath)why do you care?
Me:because i love you
Botshelo:you forgot to tell me you were getting
married
Me:Botshelo am not getting married whoever told
you that got their facts wrong
Botshelo:you don't have to lie to me Phatsimo
Me:(sitting next to him)i am taking you to the hospital
now
Botshelo:did you ever love me?
Me:i still love you babe,now more than ever
I put a towel in cold water because he was burning up
and wrapped him with it,i helped him to the car,there
was no one around so i drove him to Maun General
Hospital.The doctors attended him immediately
while i called his mother
Mother:what i cant hear you
Me:Botshelo is in the hospital now,i don't know
whats wrong with him
Mother:okay i will be there...Maun General akere?
Me:ee mma
I buried my hands in my palms,i took a short
prayer.Someone tapped my shoulder
Me:(standing up)how is he?
Doc:his blood pressure is high and so is his
temperature,we are referring him to Letsholathebe.
Me:okay i will be right behind you
Doc:are you related?
Me:yes...he is my fiancée
Doc:did you inform his family?
Me:yes
I called his mother again informing her about the
changes.I followed the ambulance.I waited for an
hour then his mother came.
Mother:what did they say?
Me:his blood pressure and temperature is high
Mother:(crying)my poor son or God dont forsake me
he is my life my only hope.
I hugged her,shem bathong it broke my heart to see
her like that,i kinds knew how she felt,being a mother
i would never want to see my baby no matter how
grown up they are in a situation that Botshelo was in.
Have you ever in your life questioned your
faith?After two days with no change in Botshelo's
situation i started doubting God's existence because i
prayed day and night for his recovery.After work i
checked up on him,he looked so helpless connected
to the machines.
I went to his place to dust and do his laundry,as i was
about to leave i bumped into Kaone who looked
heavier than ever,she was with some girl about my
age.
Kaone:re adima key
Me:i am returnung it to his mother so i think its best
you go and borrow it from her
Other girl:(looking at her watch)we wont steal
anything hle mma we just want to watch skeem
saam
Me:(to Kaone)have you went to check up on him?
Kaone:ga ke na madi
Me:(took out 20 pula and gave her)check up on him
tonight or tomorrow morning
Other girl:o gana ka key neh mma?
I walked out leaving them standing there like idiots.I
checkes up on him again the next morning.I found
Bokang checking his BP,he was awake,thank God.
Me:can he hear me?
Bokang:yes
Me:Botshelo..am..(looking at Bokang)..i have been
worried sick about you
Botshelo:(mumbling)..
Me:huh?
Bokang:give him a glass of water i think his throat is
still dry
Me:can you excuse us for a few minutes please
He finished writing whatever he was writing and left i
gave him a glass of water,he held on tight to my hand
and smiled.I couldnt hold back the tears.
Me:i love you
Botshelo:(smiling)me too
Me:you scared me
Botshelo:i should have listened to the
doctors..(pause)...if it was not for you... i would be
dead
Me:Malaria is a serious case but you guys take is so
lightly,(kissing his hand)ne'er do that to me
Botshelo:(smiling)you are so selfish babe i almost
died wena you are thinking about yourself
Me:(laughing)can we make things right between us,IV
learnt something from this experience,life is short
and no one is perfect but love comes only once,i have
loved before but i have never felt like this about
anyone,yeah am afraid one day i might suddenly
have feelings for Calvin again but that's a bridge we
will cross when we reach it.You have been nothing
but nice and loyal to me,i thought me staying away
from you i will be protecting you from me but i have
just realised i am the only one who can ever love yph
right..so i hope when you get out of here you man up
and tell that little whore to tell you the truth about
the baby,if it's not yours which am sure of them we
will make our own baby.
Botshelo:(smiling)babe who wrote that speech for
you?
Me:(laughing)tswa ha the..
Botshelo:she long told me the baby was not mine,she
got pregnant before we meet but she only found out
recently..
Me:then you will have to tell her to go tell her babby
daddy the truth..did she come to see you?
Botshelo:i don't know
Me:so will you tell her or should i?

Episode 94
A week later
I put the phone on silent for the fourth time.I
warmed up the water and sat on the bed next to my
bae.

Me:k fila gore il be hurting him,he really wanted to

Botshelo:are you sure you want to do this?
Me:do what?
Botshelo:do us

than he was as a lover.He never kissed me hela mo go

Botshelo:babe just answer him the mma please nna i

I poured the water in the bath and poured a little
foam bath
Me:bath

Me:my eldest kid bathes herself and she is only 9
Botshelo:she doesnt give you what i give you
Me:and what exactly do you give me Mr?
He put his hand in my thigh and looked into my eyes.
Me:go and bath i want to go home
Botshelo:you are not spending the night?
Me:Lefika is bringing Cici any minute from now
Botshelo:Ame o teng akere
Me:i have to discuss something with him concerning
school fees sa ngwana.Seriously i don't know why i
have to beg him every month to pay when it was him
who wanted to send Cici to a private school.
Botshelo:babe kana if we have a child...(long silence)
legale
Me:bua
Botshelo:i should apply for youth business yame e

tsenang Tswana medium.
Me:ao rra why do you talk like that? He or she will be
blesses because he will grow up raised by both
parents not the excuse of men i have as baby dadies.
Botshelo:(taking of his clothes) tomorrow you will be
calling me that
Me:you are honest and have a heart you will never be
like them,believe me money is not everything.
Botshelo:(standing before me completely naked)say

Botshelo:i know
Me:have you drank moporora?
Botshelo:nope o was born like this babe (getting in

almost every weekend,so one day this girl told me
gore her friend told her about my big dick so she
wanted to come see for herself.Ka mo ja gore ke
iphelleditse a bo a tsamaela ruri i never saw her
again.
I laughed so hard that was the last thing i expected
out of Botshelo's mouth.He continued telling me
about his sexual experiences,i got to say bae has
been around the block more than i expected.
After eating he drove me back home,Lefika called
that they would be comimg the next morning.I took a
taxi back to bae's,found him buisy on facebook.I got
ontop of him,he let out a smile.
Botshelo:you are back
Me:yeah,Lefika a re they are coming tomorrow
My phone ran,i looked at Botshelo and pucked up
Me:hey you
Bokang:can we meet i need to tell you something
Me:(looking at Bae)you want to meet,when?
Bokang:tomorrow if possible
Me:okay,look i..we will talk tomorrow
Bokang:good night
I hung up and put the phone under the pillow taking
off all my clothes
Botshelo:its much fun when i undress you
Me:(smiling)did ypuvtake your medication?
Botshelo:yes mama
Me:good now make love to me
He tossed me around and i helped him take of his
boxers.Gosh it looked much bigger now,God does
wonders hey.
I got ontop of him and did what i knew i was good
at,yeah when you are good you are good,IV reached
that point in my sexual life where i no longer needed
a man to tell me i was good,am bursting my bubbles
yeah..lol.
Woke up the next day very tired,yeah the 3 rounds
did me wounders.Bae made me breakfast in bed,yes
it was a one roomed but its the thought that
counts.We spent the whole day in the house
watching TV and playing games.
Around 5 Bokang called,he picked me up near
Botshelo's place,we drove to the lodge ame had a
few drinks.
Bokang:yph have been ignoring me
Me:yes
Bokang:why?
Me:because.truth is i am inlove with someone else
Bokang:me too
Me:(surprised)oh i don't know if i should be happy or
sad,tell me about her
Bokang:its a him...
Me:what?
Bokang:truth is am gay,my parents don't know and i
dont want to dissapoint them that's why am asking
you to marry me,its not like we will be living
together,just to get my parents off my back.
Me:what?
Bokang:please please am begging you,you can
continue seing your boyfriend and even have kids as
long as my parents dont find out about our fake
marriage.
Me:(pissed)you were going to let me marry you when
you knew deep down inside you are gay,why didn't
you tell me this when we first meet.Wow
Bokang:please i will pay you if you want me to
Me:i don't want your money but pretending to be
married wont help you its best you tell your parents
now that you are gay
Bokang:my dad would die
Me:i am sorry but i cant,pretend to date you yes i can
consider that but marriage,that's crazy and absurd
Bokang:(looking down)you don't know how its like..
Me:they are your parents they will be angry and
dissapointed at first but they will accept you as time
goes
Bokang:i tried everything,i have no reason to live
anymore
Me:(scared)don't say that
Bokang:(standing up) IV got to go,bye Phats

Episode 95
I followed him to his car,the waitress followed me
because we didn't settle our bill.
Me:Bokang wait
Waitress:Mam you didn't pay
Bokang:(giving her the money)am sorry,keep the
change
She walked back happy,i held his hand ame hugged
him,yes i felt sorry for the guy who wanted to use
me.Kana ke gore if you haven't been through
something you will never understand it.I remember
how scared i was to tell my mother i was
pregnant,jaanong imagine telling your parents yph
are gay,this is Botswana not some Hollywood
film,you will probably get disowned but at the end
they will accept you.
I have had lunch and a few dinners at Bokang's place
and meet his parents so i kinda know how they
would react,his dad especially because he was one of
those men respected by the community and wanted
his family picture perfect.
Me:want me to go with you when you tell them?
Bokang:no its cool
Me:no its not cool,am not leaving you alone
Bokang:i need to go for a drive alone to clear my
head,promise i wont do anything stupid
Me:(smiling)i can use some fresh air too,let me drive
Bokang:okay
Me:you are my friend i hope you know that
Bokang:don't hate me please
Me:(starting the engine)i will never do that,you are a
nice person plus iv always wanted to have a gay
friend,why are you nor like somgaga chomma?
Bokang:(laughing)am a man
Me:and Nigel is the woman?
Bokang:(laughing)he is a man too,dude can't we be
gay and act like men too??how did you know it was
Nigel?
Me:he was always with us andnow that i think about
he always dropped some hints that you guys were
together.Ypy are a boring gay,you should be all girlish
right now o tsentse fake nails and fake lashes.
Bokang:please,being gay..i think i was born gay,i
mean i never acted like a girl even when i was young,i
tried to date girls but..it just wasn't going right.I tried
to ignore my feelings but..eish
Me:i know someone who would be glad to be your
baby mama,you can help her with the baby and tell
your parents its yours.
Bokang:really?
Me:yeah let me talk to her first and i will get back to
you
Bokang:can we talk to her together?
Me:no you will scare her
Bokang:where is the real father?
Me:o gatilwe ke terena
We laughed and did a u turn,i packed infront of the

the yard.I openes the door slowly,Ciara was busy
singing while Lefika was on his phone.Cici ran to me

He walked out without saying goobye,Cici gave me a
box of chocolates
Cici:(looking around)where is dad?
Me:he left
Cici:(sad)without goodbye? What did you say to him?
Me:what?
Cici:(shouting)dad was right i hate you

Me:(pissed)do you know who i am?
Cici:....
Me:i am your mother,learn to respect me
Cici:(mumbling)...
Me:what did you say?
Cici:i want to go live with my dad
Me:then go did i stop you?
Cici:i am going and am never coming navk here
Me:thank God i can't deal with a female version of
Lefika anyway
She packed her clothes back in the bag and went out
calling her father,mxm i hate spoilt kids and Ciara ene
she was rotten.She came back crying and i ignored
her.
I sat down watching tv and later cooked us supper,i
called Bae and told him how it went with Bokang
Bae:so you want him to use Kaone?
Me:no am just saying its a win win situation for both
of them,or else Kaone is gonna suffer ka ngwana all

I heard Ciara crying and i ignored it,i called Kaone
Me:Kaone?
Kao: yes
Me:O bua le Phatsimo can we meet?
Kao:am not feeling well at the moment
Me:what's wrong?
Kao:eish mma i ate nama ya podi jaanong ka

Me:okay bye save my number neh
Kao:sure
Bathong waitse some people are born humble nna
kana if my ex boyfriend's girlfriend called me asking
to meet i was going to refuse.But Kaone was just
down to earth,ahh honestly speaking i hate people
like that,when you do them wrong you end up
beating yourself for it for the rest of your life.
Right after bae hung up Lefika called.
Me:do you know what time it is?
Lefika:Cici o kae she is not answering my calls
Me:she is in her room crying a river
Lefika:i told her i wont come take her until she learns

She took the bags and went into the house smiling
and happy.She kept woundering which doctor her
daughter hooked up with because she knew almost
all the doctors at the hospital.
At Botshelo`s
He lifted up the cement and put it behind his room.He
whiped the sweat with the back of his hand and sat
down on another cement.He saw Phatsimo from a
distance.He smiled,this was the woman that stole his
heart,the woman who at one point wanted so badly
to hate her but kept loving her even more,she looked
tired from walking amost 500 meters in stiletoes.She
looked innocent,only if people knew what a freak she
was. He meet her halfway

Episode 97
A week later
I woke up to someone knocking on my window..it
was a minute after 2 am.
Me:ke mang?
Voice:babe bula
I put on my gown and went to open the
door..Botshelo was sitting on the stoop with his head
buried between his legs.
Me:(worried)hey what's wrong?
Bae:I love you
Me:okay..you came here around this time to tell me
that?
Bae:I did something stupid babe and u will

Bae:(drunk)babe please o seka wa lala o nkgamile
Me:mxm
I closed the door and pushed him to my room,he was
dead drunk and smelled awful.
Next morning at Calvin's house
He went through his gallery and let out a fade
smile,he kept thinking about her,the love of his
life,he had everything he ever wanted,well all he ever
wanted was money,he had more than enough,it
could secure his and his family's life until death but
his soul was empty,he longed for her touch,her kiss
and her smile, he missed the way she used to boss
him around. He laughed out loud thinking about the
good old times.
Boi:what's so funny?
Cal:(serious)nothing
Boi:(taking his phone)this is not nothing,kante am I
ever going to be woman enough for you?
Cal:am looking at my children's photos
Boi:we are still on for tonight?
Cal:am not feeling well
Boi:everytime I ask you to accompany me to my
friend's parties wa gana.Am always there looking like
an idiot, they have never meet you.
Cal:they are your friends not mine,I never force you
to go out with me
Boi:you never ask me to,we are a couple we should
make public appearances together
The twins opened the door and jumped on the bed
hugging their dad
CJ:daddy call mama
Channel: daddy when are we going to see mummy?
Cal:(looking at Boi) we will call mummy later guys,go
eat your breakfast
The walked back outside without saying a word to
Boi. She continued applying lotion on her legs.She
wondered how long she was going to stay in this
loveless marriage. All she ever wanted was to please
her father,he has always loved Calvin like his own son
that's why she had agreed to marry him,plus he was
very good looking and she has always had a little
crush on him.
She sat at the edge of the bed and slowly touched
her tummy,a tear fell town on her hand.Only if she
could have seen the future,her child would have been
2 years now.
She took out her phone and sent him a watsapp
inbox.
Boi: I miss you
He was online,he left her on read,she sent another
one asking how he was and he still didn't reply.How
she wished she could turn back the time..
At my house
I looked at Botshelo sleeping, he looked so cute,I
slapped his cheek and he opened his eyes.
Bae:(sleepy)babe
Me:ke reeditse who did you kiss?

with his mouth wide open.I pulled his leg
Me:bua

Me:(smiling)mxm

Episode 98
I prepared Ame's bedroom for the twins arrival.Bae
helped me clean the house because I was only
notified of their arrival an hour back,I think Calvin
thought it was cute to tell me he was in
Lehlakane.Now I was working under pressure
preparing where the twins will sleep.
Bae:babe so Calvin ene wa go robala kae?
Me:I think he is going to rent a room
Bae:how long are they going to be here?
Me:I think a week tops
Bae:all that time ta bo a robala ko hotel?

Bae:just asking
Along the way to Maun,Cal parked under big mowana
tree to take a leak,his phone ran and he ignored it.CJ
got out of the car and stood next to his dad taking a
leak too.
Channel: (head out the window) daddy how far am so
tired
Cal:just an hour baby,we will be there when you
wake up
CJ:daddy are we going to go to the zoo with mummy
like I'm that movie?
Cal:I don't know
Channel: daddy lets go
Cal got in the front and reversed back into the road
playing Justin Bieber music while the twins sang
along.
2 hours later
Cj got our of the car to open the gate,Channel was
fast asleep.Phatsimo peeked through the window
and smiled.Cal was one fine man,he was back to his
old body,except that he lost the six packs and now
had a small belly.He looked so damn hot in black.I
opened the door and meet CJ halfway,he jumped on
me,and I kissed his forehead.
CJ:(happy) I missed you mama
Me:I missed you too babe where is El?
CJ:she is sleeping in the back
I put him down and walked to the car,Cal extended
his hand while I was ready for a hug,ir was a bit
awkward and we laughed
Me:Hi
Cal:hey
Me:you look nice
Cal:you too
Me:thanks
Cal:so you can tell me the nearest hotel or guest
house so that you can bring over the twins over
whenever
Me:ohh,Mokoro lodge is not far from here
He walked to the house with channel on his shoulder,
I smiled looking at his flat bum.
He put her in the sofa and sat next to her.
Cj:mummy where is Cici?
Me:she is in her room
Cj:there is no one in the room
Me:maybe she is behind the house
He ran outside while I took Channel to the bedroom.
Came back and sat next to Cal

Cal:(fade smile)its cool
Me:you look nice

Me:no I have a boyfriend
Cal:that's your excuse?
Me:I don't need an excuse Cal I have moved on and so

Cal:I am getting a divorce
Me:what?
At Boi's house
She opened the gate and a white BMW got in the
yard,she fixed her hair and closed the gate
The driver stepped out,he had not changed a
bit,same old Kaelo.He took off his sunglasses and
smiled hugging Boi.
Boi:long time
Kaelo:I hope your husband won't kill me a mpithela

Kaelo:(looking at Boi)you look..young

Kaelo walked behind her,she still had that big ass,he
laughed out loud thinking about all the naughty

talking about her.Tota it was not working so we
decided to save ourselves from the misery.
Kaelo:sorry
He stood up and put the glass on the table and
hugged her,he felt her heartbeat on his chest.He
looked straight into her eyes and kissed her.She felt a
hot sensation goin down her spine,it had been long
since someone kissed her with so much love.

Episode 99
At Boi's house the next day
She tiptoed into the bathroom and locked the
door.She smiled at the mirror and covered her face
with her hand..She splashed cold water on her face
and breathed heavily.
Kaelo:Pelo bula
Boi:(smiling) sheee you still call me that?
Kaelo:(laughing) hle mma Onyana bula
Boi smiled and opened the door,Kaelo picked her up
and pressed her against the wall looking into her
eyes..
Kaelo:this us wrong but it feels so damn good
Boi:I still... (Embarrassed) you are so cute
Kaelo:just say it
Boi:find it in your heart to forgive me maybe one day
we will continue where we left off
Kaelo:(kissing her neck)talking about finishing off
where we left..mmh where were we?
He threw her on the bed and looked at her naked
body,she was still pretty but a little slim.She bit her
lower lip and touched her breast seductively, he
jumped on the bed and pulled her legs to him
exposing her vagina.He swallowed hard
At Mokoro lodge
I knocked on the door four times with no
reply,eventually he opened the door.Shit he looked
yummy with a white towel wrapped around his well
built torso.
Cal:(drying his hair with another towel)sorry I was in
the shower
Me:mmmh
Cal:so I was thinking in case you want to take the kids

whole day
Me:(looking at his abs)okay
Cal:don't destroy my car
Me:I won't
Cal:so will you need cash?
Me:yeah
Cal:(waving his hand in my eyes)heela am talking to
you
Me:huh?
We both laughed and I got inside the room
Cal:what were you looking at?
Me:nothing
He put his hands around my neck and breathed down
on me,his breath was fresh.He leaned over for a
kiss,as much as I wanted him so badly I couldn't.
Me:Cal
Cal:if you don't tell I won't
Me:no..no just give me the keys and money ke
tsamae
I pulled myself from him and his towel fell,we both
looked down to his dick,he put my hand in it and
made me stroke it a little. God why are the wrong
things so fun.
I closed my eyes and gave him a hand job while he
kissed my neck playing with my butt..
Cal:I missed this
Me:(breathing heavily)just this once
Cal:I can't promise you anything right now
Me:shit...
He picked me up and pinned me against the wall
spreading my legs apart.He put his middle finger in
my cookie and I breathed heavily enjoying.His thumb
played with my clit.He walked to the bed still holding
me and put me on the bad spreading my legs.He took
off my pantie and went down on me as he tongue
fucked me.Gosh...I closed his head between my legs
almost choking him..He lifted his head looking at me.
Cal:open your eyes
Me:(eyes still closed)mmh
I opened my eyes and he smiled at me.I bit my lower
lip and smiled
Cal:I missed this
Me:me too
Cal:should we use a condom?
Me:yeah
Cal:so you are having unprotected sex with that guy?
Me:he is my boyfriend
He put me on the bed and went into the bathroom, I
took off my dress and adjusted myself well on the
bed
He came out and sat on the bed putting on his
boxers..ooookaaay what just happened here?
Me:(embarrassed) and?
Cal:if we are going to sleep together we are going to
do it the right way
Me:and the right way is?
Cal:how we used to do it
Me:(putting on my dress)I guess then we are not
going to do it because I don't want another baby or
an sti .
Cal:(putting on his pants)okay(took out his card)don't
use more than enough
Me:(taking the card)thanks...
I walked out..
At Botshelo's place
He put the calculator down and rested his head on
the pillow,he took out his phone dialing my
number..Before it rang his older sister busted in with
a plate of food,she put them into of the fridge and
looked at the mess on the bed.
Sis:everything adding up?
Botshelo:yes and I have made enough to but a
second taxi but am thinking of buying a combi,what

Sis:di combo ga di expensive?
Botshelo:if I save for another 5 months am sure il be

something to eat then
Sis:(smiling)o dire o nyale ngwana wa batho eseng

They both laughed and she closed the door on her
way out..Botshelo took his phone and dialed her
again.
At Mokoro lodge
I put my phone on silent and knocked on the door
twice then he opened..
Cal:(smiling) I take it you know what you came for
Episode 100
Me:just this once
Cal:still can't promise you that, and please while you
are here don't talk about your boyfriend.
Me:okay the same goes for you
Cal:do I ever talk about her?
Me:(taking off my shoes)are we talking about her
now?
He picked me up and threw me on the bed,he stood
by the door looking at me seductively
Me:are we doing this or not?
Cal:take off your dress...slowly
Me:(smiling) whaaat?
He looked at me as I took off my dress,he came closer
and helped me take off the panty,he picked me up
and we went into the bathroom. He opened the
shower and I tried to cover my hair.
Cal:it's so damn sexy
Me:what is?
He answered me with a kiss,He lete down and I knelt
before him taking his whole dick in my mouth,he
fucked my mouth until I almost lost all the air in my
lungs then he pulled out and I caught my breath. He
made me face the other way as he slowly penetrated
taking out all the space,I let out a small moan,He
grabbed my hair and started spanking my butt,the
shit turned me on,Ladies I feel like once in a while we
need that kind of sex,you know the 50 shades kinda
sex,yeah...
Cal:shit babe...your white cum is all over my dick
Me:aaah...spank me more
He spanked me harder as he went more fast ,he
picked me up still in that position and made me kneel
on the bed,for about 0.3 seconds Botshelo came into
my mind but the spanking and deep Penetration
distracted me.
After a few minutes I felt his dick become soft in
me,he rested on my back,we laid like that for a few
minutes without anyone saying anything. He pulled
out and whipped his dick with the towel and whipped
me then slowly penetrated again.He held my waist as
he went in circles.He turned me around as I laid on
my back and he looked at my cookie,he penetrated
again.
Cal:babe open your eyes
I opened my eyes and I found him looking at me with
a serious face..I started playing with my boobs and
he played with my clit as he destroyed my vagina.
After the second round we took a shower then laid
down,we fell asleep because I woke up around 6.Shit
I had left Cici with the twins only.I switched on my
phone and called her.
Me:hey babe,how are things?
Cici: mama I hate this kids when are you coming?
Me:give me an hour
Cici:(shouting) Cj stop choking that cat,mama please
hurry or else am gonna kill your babies,ohh by the
way your boyfriend came over and I told him you
went to see daddy Calvin
Me:(heart pounding faster)okay bye
I switched the phone off again and put on my dress,I
put the panty on top on Calvin's bag and kissed him
on the forehead.
Me:I have to go
Cal:okay,see you later
Me'okay
I took a taxi to the mall,I even forgot I had his car keys
with me.I bought a few things and went home.
Just as I got off the taxi I saw Botshelo's car
approaching. I paid and walked faster into the yard,
Channel came running and hugged my legs
Channel: mummy Cici did my hair
Me:is it painful?
Channel: nope
Me:it's cute
I put the plastic down and picked her up admiring her
little knots.Botshelo packed under the tree and
Channel raised her hands wanting him to take her.
Botshelo:she still remembers me
Me:(faking a smile)yeah she does
Botshelo:(kissing my cheek)I came here earlier o seo
Me:yeah Cal wanted us to discuss something
Botshelo:at the hotel,why didn't he come here?
Me:I don't know,but we are done now.How are you?
Botshelo:(put Channel down and helped me take the
plastics in the house)I have some good news,and
after that I want a reward..(kissed my neck)all night

Botshelo:so..I...

Botshelo:sure
Me:hey Lefika
Cal:switch on your phone
Me:(smiling) ha-ha ke wena,did you see the little gift I

Cal:I sent mine
Me:(smiling) okay,bye
I gave Cici her phone and switched mine on,I sat on
the other chair facing Botshelo
Me:babe you were about to tell me
Botshelo:(smiling) so I want your opinion on
something, I made lots of money this year,about 60
gran so babe should I buy a taxi or combi?
Me:(exited)wow that much? Mmh why don't you buy
two other cars,maybe di vitz a bo o di tsenya mo

you in a year,you will even be able to afford a mini
bus.
Botshelo:(smiling) the bathong nna ke bolaile,that's
why I didn't decide on anything until ke bua le wena.
Me:so how much are you paying me for this good

Botshelo:am gonna marry you and build you a
mansion and buy you that jeep you made your DP.
Me:ha-ha wa yaka the moment cash starts rolling in

We both laughed, he wanted to kiss me but I brushed
him off,I mean I had just kissed Cal not even an hour
back.
Botshelo:babe how about I get my reward for
working so hard while the kids are still outside,then
we can come cook for them.
Me:(trying to avoid his words)A kiss will do for now o
ta bona the big reward after you buy the cars.
He picked me up and my phone fell,he picked it up
and we went into the bedroom.A message reported
and he opened it,I tried to reach for the phone before
he could read it because God knows what Calvin
could have written. He read the message and after a
few seconds threw the phone on the bed.
Me:ke mang?
Botshelo:Mascom ebile ke deletile
Me:okay
We playfully wrestled on the bed,truth us I didn't
want to sleep with him right after I just had
unprotected sex with Calvin.
After a long wrestle he managed to take off my
dress.
Botshelo:mmmh babe I love it when you don't wear
panties,such a turn in ebile ga re die nako..
We both laughed
He kissed my boobs and fingered me,my heart was
beating more than normal.
Me:(panicking) wait
Botshelo:(surprised)what?
Me:(couldn't breath)the kids are outside
Botshelo:don't worry I locked the door
Me:no...no..I..I...Calvin he
Botshelo:(serious) he what?
Me:(gathering my breath)nothing..
He continued finger fucking me then opened my legs
wider and penetrated.To be honest that was the
most long boring round of all rounds in the world.He
splashed his sperms on my stomach and looked at
me.
Botshelo:(seriously) why?
Me:what?
Another SMS reported and he took the phone,after
reading if he smashed the phone against the wall and
pulled by the leg I almost fell.
Botshelo:(angry)you know I believe God does
everything for a reason,for the first time in my life I
am glad our child died,she would have tied me to
you,why would you sleep with me right after
sleeping with Calvin?.. This is so low for you.Or what
you didn't think I would feel that your vagina is a bit
stretched from the last time we had sex.(putting on
his boxers)I regret ever loving you and thinking I can
make a wife out of a whore.(putting his jean)you even
left your panty at his hotel room,he us married and
you are just his baby mama that he smashed
whenever he is horny.(putting on his t-shirt)I am glad
I found out what you are before I made a fool out of
myself by marrying you.If you can sleep with a
married man nothing can stop you from sleeping
with him again when we are married,i am so done
with you.O te go tsaya masepa a dilwana tsa gago at
my house.
He took his shoes and slammed the door while I cried
myself to a headache.I got off bed and tried to repair
my phone but it was damaged beyond repair.
I wrapped myself with a towel and ran outside but
his car had already left,I took Ciara's phone from the
charger and paged Calvin. He called
Me:(crying) what did you send?
Cal:are you crying?
Me:what did you send?
Cal:did he hurt you? I swear to God
Me:(crying) everytime I let you in my life Calvin you
always destroy my happiness,now I lost a man who
loved me more than life itself because of you.Why
can't I ever say no to you?why do I keep letting you
between my legs,why why..
I hung up and threw the phone on the sofa and went
into my room.I wrote a letter and slid if under the
door for Cici to see..
4 years later..

stepping on the baby's toy.I picked it up and tiptoed
to his pram.He was fast asleep.

smiled.He let out a fade smile and took Motheo from
me
Me:hey

door behind me, I sat down behind the door wiping
away my tears..

Episode 102
a week later
after work I went to the mall to do a little grocery
shopping. I put the basket in the trolley and moved to
the food section, I picked a few things amd someone
touched my shoulder. I turned around and our eyes
meet.I let out a big smile and he hugged me
Me:hey u

Me:how are Kaone and the baby doing?
He took out his phone and showed me photos of the
babe, he was so grown up and looked cute
Me:whats his name?
Bokang:Tyler
Me:(smiling) and Nigel?
He frowned and pushed my trolley around the shop
avoiding my question, we talked about general
things and he helped me take the grocery to the car,
we said goodbye and I drove home.
At Calvin's house
He picked up Channel and put her on her car seat, his
phone ran and he ignored the call
Chanel:daddy are you not going to answer?
Cal:its not important
The phone rang again and he picked up annoyed
Cal:Linda I thought I made myself clear
Linda:so it was just a one night stand?
Cal:yes
Linda:I love you Calvin
Cal:I am sorry the feeling is not mutual
Linda:(sounding sad from the other end of the line)
okay bye Calvin
He put the phone in his pocket without hanging up
Cal:(shouting) CJ hurry or else we are leaving without
you
CJ came running and he helped him in the car, he
buckled up and looked at then through the driver's
mirror, he smiled and hit the brakes.
Cal:are you guys exited?
Channel:(happy) yes
CJ:yey dad are we going to go fishing again?
Cal:yep
Chanel:daddy!!

His heart broke into pieces, he stopped the car and
looked at them
Cal:you guys and your mum are the most important
people in my life and I promise she and I will never

He continued driving
At Botshelo's place

distracted
Lone:what distracted you?
Botshelo:I saw Phatsimo
Lone:ehe rra
Botshelo:I didnt mean it that way
Lone:what way?
Botshelo:sorry babe
Lone took the last plastics to the house Botshelo
came apologizing behind her, she sat on the bed and
looked at Donah as he sucked on his thumb
Lone:I dont like that I always feel like I compete with
her, she is more pretty and educated and you guys
have a history I cant change or compete with that
but I just want you to assure me that I have nothing
to worry about.Just love me and alow me to be more
woman to you than Phatsimo was ever..
Botshelo knelt before her and took her hand in his
and looked straight in her eyes..
Botshelo:I cant hate her, believe me I tried she is my
son's mother but I dont love her not after what she
did to me.You are more tjat what I am looking for in a

The twims ran in the room putting on their pyjamas
Chanel:Daddy come tuck us in
CJ:mummy tuck us too
After tucking in the twins Cal took a shower, I got in
holding clean towels.
Me:(shouting) clean towels on the bed
Cal:thanks
I turned around and my jaws fell, he smiled as he
rubbed his hair with the towel.
Cal:its nothing you haven't seen before

Episode 103
I closed my eyes and took few steps towards him.I
felt his breath on my skin,I opened my eyes and
looked into his.
:we are older and much wiser now,if we do this we do
it the right way,no sneaking arond like we are
teens,we set rules and boundaries.
Cal:I can follow rules
Me:prove it by sleeping here alone without
disturbing me
cal:I can do that
He opened a space between us and I slowly walked
outside hoping he changes his mind.
THE FOLLOWING DAY
I made breakfast and took a long hot shower while
everyone enjoyed their food.After breakfast
everyone helped me clean the house then we
cuddled on the sofa watching Disney channel.
cal:this is what I watch everyday,its toure
Chanel:daddy sometimes you watch it alone
Cal:Nel are you telling everyone our secret now?
Chanel:sorry daddy
I laughed outloud,Cal gave me an evil look and kept
quite but could no longer hold it in.He quickly got
ontop of me and pinned my hands down.
cal:so its funny akere
:seriously I didn't take you for the type that watched
Disney
CJ:(screaming)its war
he jumped ontop of us,Cal pushed him to the other
side of the sofa as he started to tickle me.I laughed
so hard I could no longer breath then he tickled the
twins.
someone knocked and CJ ran to open,
:mum Chris is here
:coming
I greeted Botshelo and took the baby from him,Cal
came behind me and the smile on Botshelo vanished
Botshelo:sorry to bring him this early we are going
out and he seems to have fever so...
Me:its cool
CJ took Dobah from me and I walked Botshelo out,he
gave me his bag and said goodbye
:he just brought the twins
Botshelo:its not my business
Me:okay bye
He got in his car and drove off,it hurt so much when
someone you truely love ignores you like that.I went
backinside and put the bag on the sofa and went into
the kitchen,Cal followed me,he hugged me from
behind
Cal:he Will come around
me:he hates me
Cal:a man doesn't get jealous over a woman he
hates,believe me
Me:(smiling)are you trying to score some points with
me
Cal:(kissing my neck)maybe
I turned around and kissed him fully on the lips,he
picked me up and put me on the kitchen counter
looking straight into my eyes
cal:I want to rip off this dress and make love to you
so badly,I wanted to do that the moment I walked in
last night
I smiled and kissed him again as he slid his hand
under my dress,his thumb rubbed on my cookie.It
had been years since I had some little action,his
middle finger slowly entered me and I gasped
opening my legs more wider.
Cal:shit bab...look into my eyes..I want you to look at
me as I eat this pussy
Okay nasty talking turns the fuck out of me,I slowly
opened my eyes and he pulled closer to the edge still
fingering me.His other hand rubbed my breasts
me:baby lock the door
he picked me from the counter and pinned me
against the door then locked it..i could feel his boner
on my stomach,i took it out.

Episode 104
Someone knocked softly trying to open the door.we
both stopped and looked at each other
Chanel:mummy Donah is crying
Me:okay I will be there
Chanel:mama open the door I want water
Me:(fixing my dress) I am coming
Chanel:mama what are you doing? why did you lock
the door?
Me:(annoyed) I said I am coming
After a few seconds I heard her talking outside, I got
off the counter and fixed my hair
Cal:Chanel is always a distraction of progress
Me:(smiling) mmh you can say that again
I went outside leaving Cal standing still with his hard
dick out.
At Botshelo's house
He slammed the door and threw himself on the bed,
Lone came from the bathroom wrapped in a
towel.She got ontop of Botshelo and started kissing
him
Botshelo:babe....wait
Lone:just a quick one for the road
Botshelo:I am not feeling well
She got off him and applied lotion on her legs,
Botshelo swallowed hard looking at her round firm
ass, he got off bed and kissed her back going to her
neck.He put his hand on her thighs.
Lone:I am not in the mood
Botshelo:I can bring back your mood
Lone:(smiling) really?
Botshelo:mmh
He picked her up and threw her on the bed and
opened her legs wider looking at her shaved
cookie.He baby kissed her vagina then slid his tongue
in and cupped her breasts while she moaned.
Later that afternoon
After crying for so long finally Donah slept,the twins
were eating and playing with their food, I layed on
the bed and let out a loud breath. The door opened
Cal:(whispering) is he sleeping?
Me:yeah, hey this one wa ntapisa but I miss him

He laid next to me and kisses my forehead,we
cuddled and fell asleep.
Woke up to some flash lights in our faces, I covered
my face
Cici:(smiling) you guys look cute together
She jumped on the bed between us and hugged Cal
then me.
Cal:(kissing her forehead) hey chocolate how are you?
Cici:I misses you guys, lets take a selfie
Me:no no I just woke up
Cici:(taking out her phone) Daddy your girlfriend is

off bed and looked in Donah's court
Cici:awww he is so cute, mama I hate that I am the

Cal:(playing with her hair) but you are the cute one
Me:hey CJ is the cutest
Cal:Honestly speaking Donah is, the rest of you are

We all laughed waking up the baby, Cici picked him up
and went outside we followed her, Cal held my hand
and pulled me towards him and passionately kissed
me.
Cal:I guess I should go book a room at the hotel then,
Cici is here and you are coming back to your room
Me:(smiling) mmmh I have a mattress you can sleep

I just finished hanging the laundry when a silver
range rover packed by the gate.A tall masculine guy

in his pocket and looked at the time.
Him:hello i am looking for a guy named Tepo,he says

house,changed his diaper and feed him..
At Calvin's place
His mum put the clothes in the washing machine as
he checked the pockets.
Chanel:Mama what are you always searching our

Her:searching for money,tp and other important

while she went on and on about how she wanted to
transform into a version of Phatsimo.It hurt him that
she still felt threatened by her.
Botshelo:(pulling her into his arms)you dont need all

She blushed as he went on telling her how pretty she
was.

Lefika slapped her across the face and she covered
her face and blinked fast.He raised his hand again
and she dodged the clap.
Lefika:(angry)never talk to me like that i am your
father
He slammed the door on his way out.Cici got off the
bed,took her bag under the bed and started packing
her clothes.She wrote a letter and put it on the bed
and quietly sneaked through the back door.
At my house

two empty glasses and a bottle of wine.His big dick
looked so innocent

Along the road a Vitz stopped for Ciara

The car slowed down and the man rolled down the
window.He looked at the little girl carrying heavy
bags
Man:where are you going?
Cici:...
Man:i am headed to the bus rank incase you going
there
Cici:(stopped and looked at the man making her eyes
thin)do i look like i need a lift?leave me alone before i
scream
Man:ijoo
The man hit the accelerator and dissapeared into the
empty road.Cici took out her phone and called her
mum for the forth time and it still didnt ring.She put
down the bag and sat on it,it was almost dark now
and she had nowhere to go but one thing she knew
was there was no way she was going back to her
dad's.She tried Calvin's and it went into voicemail and
finished her airtime.
She searched her bag and she only had a hundred
and twenty.She pulled her bag until she reached the
combi stop.Two guys approached her and she
brushed them off getting into the combi.
Cici:(about to cry)shit my battery is only 25 percent
At my house
His fingers played with my nipples as i sipped on the
last drop of the wine..
Me:babe
Cal:yeah
Me:i wish we could turn back the time to the time we
first meet
Cal:(smiling)haha why
Me:i just wish we could erase all the bad
memories,we used to be so happy babe..i dont know
if things will ever be the same again but what i know
is i dont want this moment to end..
I kissed his hand as his other hand rubbed my sculp
his fingers pulling my hair,he turned my head around
and fully kissed me on the mouth then he stood up
and lifted me up,his hands on my butt as he walked
into the kitchen with me,he placed me on the kitchen
counter and spread my legs apart getting between
me.
Cal:what do you feel like eating babe?
Me:whatever you want babe its cool
Cal:(kissing my neck)i just want to eat you for
breakfast,lunch,snack,dinner all day long
I felt blood rushing through my body as he kisses my
neck his hands rubbing my boobs.I wanted him so
badly.
He let go of me and took out the eggs from the fridge
and some green salad,he mixed this and that and
made the most delicious meal i have ever eaten in my
whole life.Everything felt so right as we played like
kids and he feed me..
At Botshelo's
He put the baby in his court amd tiptoed to the
bathroom,Lone was almost finished,he hugged her
from behind and softly bit the lower part of her ear.
Botshelo:(whispering)he is sleeping
Lone:finally
Botshelo:(taking off her towel)i miss you
Lone:but am always here with you
He knelt down and took off her towel and threw it
down,he spread her legs apart and played with his
middle finger on her entrance,she opened her legs a
bit wider as she went week on her knees..
Noticing how unstable she was he picked her up and
went into the bedroom,she covered her face with her
hands.He removed them and went down on her
playing with his tongue on her clit and her warm
hole..
She kept thinking 'Thank God i always keep no hair'
He fingered her as she pulled down the sheets and
screamed into the pillow.Her legs became weak and
she felt the need to urinate,next thing she knows she
splashed Botshelo with urine,it was no ordinary urine
it was too strong she could tell it hurt his face..
She was so embarrased she covered her face with
the pillow,Botsheli removed it and smiled.
Botshelo:(smiling)babe is my tongue game that
strong i made you squirt
She threw the pillow at him and covered her face.He
rolled on the condom and spread her legs apart,he
slowly penetrated as she gasped for air..
At the bus rank
Cici got on tje bus and sat by the window looking
outside as the bus left the rank.The conductor came
checking everyone's bus tickets.She searches
through her bag as the conductor waited..After a few
minutes she started sobbing.
Cici:(crying)i cant find mine but i swear i had it with
me a few minutes ago
Conductor:(looking at her from head to toe)how old

Cici:i am 10 years
Conductor:traveling alone?

and plugged on headsets listening to music..

not made.
Lefika:Cici..!! (Stood by the bathroom door)Ciara..
He opened the door and the bathroom was empty,he

His legs where numb and he swallowed a big
lump..Finally he stood up and searched her

"Baby please come back home i dont think i can live

Top of Form
Episode 114
The kids held on tight to me crying,i was so confused
and the shooting outside brought back lots of
memories.it brought back things that i wanted so
hard to forget.Seing his facial expression i knew it
was war..and this time i didnt want to get in
between,as much as i loved Calvin and wanted us to
be together i still wanted to live a normal life and i
didnt want to die living my kids alone.
After about two hours
I heard the kitchen door open,the kids had fallen
asleep behind the couch where we were hiding.
I heard the footsteps coming towards us and i closed
my eyes.
Cal:babe
Me:(standing up)i am taking my kids and leaving
Cal:(whispering)babe lets go outside toga o tsosa

Me:no am not going to listen to maaka a gago..i went
through this 5 years ago and i refuse to go through it

myself everyday..i lost the best..the only person who
loved me unconditionally..(crying)but its cool..if
moving away means that my kids will will be safe
then i will.but let me make it clear..you and i..i dont

He took out his phone and headed to the bedroim..
Cal:Stick my man....
Somewhere around town in an abandoned
building..A man walked holding his bleeding arm
followed by two others.
Tall guy:(russian accent)did you get him..is he dead?

Tall guy:(furious)you stupid..he got away again
Bleeding guy:i saw his wife get in with his son..the

We got in the car and the security guy opened the
gate for us
Me:(smiling)good morning Patrick
Pat:morning mam
I drove into the main road..i looked by the driver's
mirror and noticed a car was following me..i changed
lanes but still..
I parked at the school parents parking and the car
parked besides mine..A petite woman stepped out
with a young boy and girl practically same age..Cici
fixed her uniform..i let out a long breath..thought
maybe Calvin's men had found us.
Woman:(smiling)i see you have your own pair..(looked
at the twins)they are so cute
Me:thank you..(looked at the boy and girl) didnt
notice they were twins but now that you have
mentioned it..
Woman:(extending her hand)Alison
Me:(hesitating looking at the kids)Faith
We exchanged greetings and walked into the school
together..I said goodbye and left.
At Botshelo's
He threw the phone on the bed and hit the wall with
his fist..
Botshelo:(angry)mxm waitse gore Phatsimo wa

Lone:maybe she lost her phone

Lone:i think i will go sleep at home tonight
Botshelo:okay
At Calvin's place
He loades his gun and put it on the table drinking
whiskey..The door opened and his father and
younger brother walked in.
Father:any new information?
Cal:no
Letso:are you okay?
Cal:i am fine
Father:and the kids?
Cal:they are safe
Father:the money?
Cal:(turned around)what about the money?
Letso:dad i dont think its the right time to talk about

Father:thats before i knew the stash was worth

Letso:what do you mean you gave them up? Cal

He walked to the kitchen to pour another glass
Later that day...at home
I locked the garage and went in taking off my
sweater..Donah came running to me..i picked him up
and kissed his cheek
Donah:tata

7 MONTHS LATER

Episode 116
"Happy birthday to you"
All:yey blow the candle baby..
Donah blew the candles and we clapped hands for
him..
Me:(giving him a table knife)cut the cake
He cut a small piece and feed me..
Me:okay cut for your sisters then
Nicole:mama i want to wi-wi.....
Me:(knelt before her)there are no monsters at the
toilet baby..just go bye yourself please
Nicole:(shaking her head)no mama..am scared
Channel:Nicky there is a big blue monster in the toilet
if you go alone he is going to bite your butt
Cici:(laughing)Nel stop it
Donah:mummy is daddy going to come today?
CJ:mum is he coming today?
Channel:(sad face)i miss him
Cici:mama why hasnt anyone visited?i miss my dad
too
Me:he will come
Cici:or can we atleast visit them..
I picked up Nicole and went to the bathroom leaving
all their questions unanswered.I was tired of lying
and making up excuses for Calvin.He was the only
person who knew where we were but he never
bothered to come check on the kids..or even tell me
what he said to Lefika and Botshelo and my family.
At Botshelo's
He looked at the toy truck without blinking..his eyes
filled with tears then he loked down.The tears fell on
his hands.He wondered how he looked now..he
smiled at the thought of him..his only son..just like
that was taken away from him without an
explanation just a letter saying their lives where in
danger and if he contacted them something might
happen to his son.
At first he thought it was a joke until Calvin called and
told him Phatsimo had taken the twins too along
with Ciara.He knew Phatsimo would never up and
leave just like that but he questioned her
involvement with the wrong crowd..like who were
this people after her and what business did they
have with her?He thought about all illegal things but
that was not Phatsimo..she is a lot of things but not a
criminal..but calvin on the other hand..he was a
hardcore criminal who once faked his own death..this
whole dissapearing had his name writen all over
it..but for his son 'safety he was not going to say
anything..he had made up stories that Phatsimo had
found a job in the states and took the kids.
But today..it was his son'second birthday,only if he
could hear his voice or see his photo..
He put the truck back in the box and laid on the
bed.someone knocked, he wore his vest and went
outside..
Botshelo:(faking a smile)sure Chief.lets seat outside
heela its burning in here
Chief:wai i just came to drop this file..i deposited the
money this morning i take it you saw the message.It
was supost to be fourteen thousand jaanong Zuma
has been bringing ma 150 and 180..ga renke
sente..but i talked to him..am sure once his mother is
released from the hospital he will get back to normal
Botshelo:whats wrong with his mother?
Chief:gatwe cancer
Botshelo:(scratching his head)eish
Chief:let me bounce..but i want to talk to you about
that mini bus..its a great deal and you can afford it.
Botshelo:ema pele i want to buy a house monna and
save up for school fees sa donah..wa gola kana
Chief:and when he gets back he will be speaking
english only..monna do you know english kante ke go
batele tuitor..
He said yhis laughing and running to his car,Botshelo
smiled and got inside the house picturing Donah
speaking english.
Hevdid his calculations and smiled..He had 10 taxis
now..each made him a thousand and four hundred in
a week..all made fourteen thousand in a week..fifty
six thousand in a month.How he wished he could
share all this with his son and Lone .
"Somewhere in Africa"
The kids made small sand castles..CJ was flying his
kite and Cici was in her own world laughing and
eating ice cream with Princess.
Channel:look mummy this one didnt break..now we
are going to look for sea shells
Me:okay..dont go too far .look where i can spot you
Channel:okay..lets go Nicki..Mama make sure Donah
doesnt destroy our house
Me:okay
I looked at him as he destroyed the house
Me:can you please lent me your phone..i left mine in
the car
Alison:(gave me the phone)sure let me go aply more
sunscream
I took a few pictures of him and sent to Botshelo's
number via watsapp captioned..birthday boy..took a
selfie with him behind me and sent then wrote not to
reply..i deleted everything....

Episode 117
I gave the phone back to Alison..I helped Donah build
the castle again..Just then i noticed i havent been
paying attention to the girls.
Me:(shouting)Nicole..Nelly.....Channel..Channel....
I looked around..i started panicking..i have heard sat
stories about kids being abducted especially at the
beach.I left Donah with
Me:have you seen two little girls looking for sea
shells..the eldest is wearing a pink short jumpsuit and
the little one is wearing yellow bikinis..
Woman:not now but a few minutes ago..they went
this way
She got up and helped me look for them..Alison also
helped call them..still there was no reply..The life
guards came to us
Guard:do they know how to swim..how old are they?
Me:(crying)the...eldest is 6 and the little one is two
years..and yes they know how to swim..
He blew his whistle and the other guards searched
around while we looked the other part..everyone
started shouting their names..My legs could no
longer carry me..i sat down.
Cici:(patting my back)mama we will find them am
sure they are not that far
Me:mmh
Alison:the life guards have found two little girls
I stood up and ran to them..the tall masculine guy put
down Channel as the lady guard did the mouth
mouth thing on Nicole..everyone was looking.I
pushed them away and knelt before Channel..
Guard:please give us some space
Alison pulled me away as the guard did their thing.I
took Donah from her and went back to the car..
Two ambulances passed by and they carried them
in..it passed by and the guard came to us.
Guard:follow us
Alison:okay we are right behind you
Guard:(to me)they are going to be fine
Me:mmmh
He got on his scooter and followed the Ambulance.
Alison:I just called my husband to come pick up the
kids..We will leave as soon as he arrives
Me:mmh
After a few minutes her husband arrived and tool the
kids to their house..She drove me to the hospital.We
found the guard waiting in the hospital reception
area.He smiled at us as we walked it..It was at that
moment that i realised i was still in my swim
wear.Thank God we lived in an island or people would
have thought i was crazy.
Guard:(smiling)they are fine
Me:where are they?
We all walked to their beds..Channel was still
sleeping and Nicole was playing with a doll.As soon
as she saw me she started crying.I picked her up and
kisses her..just the thought of loosing her brokr my
heart.
Nurse:This one is fine..she can go home but the elder
one she still needs medical attention..dont disturb
her
Me:is she going to be okay?
Nurse:yes..
Me:thank you
Alison:i will take Nicki with me the kids will spend the
night at my place,you sleep here with Nelly
Me:thank you,a lot (to the guard)thank you for saving
my babies lives
Guard:its my job..iltake my leave now
The following day
I opened my eyes and found Nel staring into my face
smiling..
Channel:mama
Me:(happy)hey baby..
Channel:(crying)i am so sorry..Nicki got in the water
to look some some shells then i told her to...(pauses
sobbing)i tried to pull her out but she...where is she

Me:its okay baby she is fine..she is at home

The door opened and the guard walked in,he smiled
at us

Me:good morning..Nel this is the man who saved
your life..he is the one who got you out of the water
Channel:thank you uncle

Channel:am good guys
Alison:lets go
They ran to the car and we followed.She dropped us
at our house and she left.I tried Calvin's number and
it was still not available.
At Botshelo's...
He woke up with a heavy heart..seing his son happily
playing tore his heart into pieces..he had grown so
big..he missed him so much the photo only brought
pain more than hapiness..He took his phone from
under the pillow and dialed Lone
Lone:hello

The next morning
I woke up to the smell of fresh coffee.I opened my
eyes slowly because I could feel that someone was
watching me.I found his staring at me smiling with a
cup in his hand.
Me:(shy) good morning
Martin:(smiling) good morning sunshine you still look
pretty

you.
Martin:this is all I could find for breakfast
Me:am not really hungry. .thanks for last night I
needed it..I am glad I meet you
Martin:thank you too..its a fresh start
He got up and went outside the little bedroom, he
was in his breefs only and his butt in was well toned.I
drank the coffee slowly then wore his shirt and went
up.He was sitting at the far end of the boat with his
hand in the water while he spoke on the phone.
Martin:no daddy will be home soon before dark..haha

He hung up and looked at me.He was handsome. .the
kind of guy you never dream would approach you.He
has a beautiful nose and soft lips that curved cute
when he smiled.He stood up and walked to me with
his hands open.He hugged me squeezing my butt.
Martin:is it too early to say I am falling for you?

At Botshelo's
He parked the car in the yard and hurried to the
house.He noticed the door was not locked but he was
sure he did lock it.
Botshelo:(picking up a brick) Hello
He peeked and saw Lone sleeping on the bed.He
threw the brick and tiptoed in.She was fast asleep
only in her panty.The house smelled and looked
clean.Thats when he realised the curtains and
bedding matched. He opened the drawer slowly and
took out his wallet. He put a 100 pula note on the
table and wrote something on the paper besides
it.He tiptoed outside, got in his car and drove away.
At the boat..
Me:(smiling) okay bye guys will talk later..I love you
I hung up and gave Martin his phone back..
Martin:everything okay?
Me:yeah..they are all fine

He went inside as I stood admiring the view..I could
see other boats from far away and the ocean looked
so beautiful..He came back and handed me the
toothbrush..
After a quick shower I cooked him a little something
while he showered too..We ate in silence..
Me:this is awkward
Martin:you are probably thinking you are not
attractive enough because I didnt sleep with you
Me:(fake smile) not thinking that
Martin:I want us to get married first
Me:(almost choking on my food) what?

Episode 119
At Botshelo"s
Botshelo stood up and put his hands on his head..
Botshelo:babe..I am only telling you this because I
don't want us starting our new life together with
secrets..when you left it showed me how much I hurt
you..I wanted to tell you the truth so bad but I
couldn't..because I was protecting my son.
Lone:(calm)protecting him from what?
Botshelo:I don't know..I dont even know where my
son is..the last time I saw him was when they went to
Gaborone..I haven't spoken to his mother in almost
half a year now..but she sent me a photo of him on
his birthday..(smiles)he is grown up and looks neither
like me or his mum..he was smiling making sand
castles..thats all I know
Lone:(covering her mouth)it feels unreal..how does

Botshelo:we will never know the truth until she
herself tells us
Lone(hugged Botshelo)I am so sorry,if I had known
Botshelo:if I had told you but I was so

bedroom.
Me:wow..just like that..you want the kids to
leave..they have adapted to this place..they have
friends here..they love it here..why do you want to
take that away from them?
Cal:Can you stop being selfish and think about Ciara

them?Stop thinking about yourself for once..
Me:Look they can visit their dads during the spring
break..but we are not leaving
Cal:okay they are your kids,I don't know what their
dad's would think but i am taking my kids..Everything
is fine now so I don't see a reason why they should
stay here.
Me:no you are not taking my kids away from
me..they are used to staying together..
Cal:well then you know what to do.its either we all
leave or you stay behind with only two of them
I sat on the bed and buried my head between my
legs..he left the room..My phone rang again.
Me:hey
Martin:hey..you sound a bit down watsap
Me:(crying)can you come pick me up
Martin:okay give me five minutes
I took a cold shower and put on shorts and a vest..I
passed everyone in the living room and waited for
Martin at the gate.A few minutes later he arrived and
I got in the car.
Me:Can we go somewhere quiet..just the two of us
alone
Martin:babe you are not okay..ha have you being

or top billing.
Me:wow your house is so beautiful
Martin:Do you want a tour?
Me:yes please i would love one..first let me send an
sms
At Botshelo"s
He wrapped his lower body with a towel and grabbed
his phone.He smiled reading the sms.He tried calling
the number but he didn't have airtime.
Botshelo:(shouting)Babe Donah is coming home..
I put my phone in my back pocket and held Martin"s
hand as we walked around the house and ended up
in the tv room.
Martin:I am going to get snacks you pick a movie..
Me:okay..bring lots of icecream
Martin:okay babe
He came back after a few minutes with lots of
snacks.
Martin:what are we watching??
Me:a walk to remember
Martin:okay..

EPISODE 120
After the movie we talked about life..and fell asleep
in the TV room in his hands.I woke up around 4 and
asked him to take me home because I had to prepare
the kids for school.
We drove in silent and he parked in front of the yard.
Martin: babe I can tell something is wrong,what is it?
Me:(holding his hand)I love you..a lot and I feel so safe
with you but I am afraid I won't be around for long..
My..we are leaving soon if not this week next week
and I wanted tonight to be memorable but it only
brought me pain thinking I might never see you
again..I am not good with long distance things so..I
want you to find someone you like and learn to love
her..I want you to be happy because you deserve to
be happy.
Martin:why are you leaving all of a sudden,
something wrong at home?
Me:no..its a long story..there are some things I can't
share with you yet..long story cut short..whatever
we were running away from at home is gone now.
Martin: but that doesn't mean its the end of us..I will
no e to your country if it means being with you
Me:(smiling)I would never ask you to leave everything
behind all for me
Martin: babe don't do this to us please
Me:(crying) I am letting you go..its not easy but I have
kids i can't think about myself only.
Martin: I love you sunshine..please we just got to
know each other don't break off the start of
something special.Let's try the long distance thing if
it doesn't work at least we would have tried.
Me:(smiling)I don't deserve you,you are too perfect
Martin: (smiling)I know,now go prepare the kids then
sleep I will come pick you up for breakfast around
ten.
Me:(smiling) okay
We kissed and I went inside the house,the kids were
sleeping and Cal was sleeping on the couch.I
prepared their uniforms and lunch boxes then went
to bed.I woke up to bath the little ones.
Cici:Mum are we leaving or not?
Me:we are going
Cici:yes..I miss dad and aunt Ame
Channel: Mum will we ever come here again?
Me:(looking at Cal)I don't know baby
Cal:No baby we won't come back

Cal:no we are all going we are a team right
CJ:yeah..I guess
I dropped the kids at school and went back home.Cal
was on the phone so I ignored him and went to my
room.
I woke up to someone calling my name.I opened my
eyes meet with Cal in his briefs only.
Cal:your boyfriend is here
I put on my gown and went to the living room.Martin
was sitting on a stool.
Me:(yawning)hey
Martin:.you never told me you lived with your baby
daddy

Episode 120.5
Me:he doesn't live here he came yesterday..
Martin:okay..but it feels weird seeing him in his
boxers only..I mean it's just the two of you here..
Me:don't worry about him..I think you should wait in
my room while I take a shower..just a few minutes
and I will be done.
Martin: okay
He waited for me as I took a shower.I wore a simple
dress and heels then we went out.
Everyone looked at us,I was starting to get used to
being stared at when I am with Martin.
The owner of the restaurant came specialy to greet
us.After he left..
Me:why is everyone always looking at us?
Martin: I haven't been with a woman in almost 5
years so am sure everyone is surprised.
Me:you make me feel so special..thank you
Martin: no thank you..for being everything I've ever
wanted.
Me:so the fact that I have four kids doesn't turn you
off?
Martin:I think seing you with your kids is what turned
me on the first time..at first I didn't think they were
yours until I heard all of them calling you mama.
Me:(smiling)really?
Martin:then I saw that killer body then I got to know
you..you are exactly as I thought. kind friendly sweet
and full of life.I would love for Tess to get to know
your kids..she has always wanted a little brother or
sister.
Me:its a pity we are leaving so soon
Martin:can I do anything to change your mind?
Me:its not my call..(held his hand)I want to stay
here..with you believe me.
Our order came and we started eating.
At the house..
Cal dialed his father's number and he answered on
the second ring.
Him:Cal
Cal:yeah..its me
Him:how is everything?
Cal:she found someone and I think she loves him
Him:don't you think she deserves to be happy after
everything you put her through?
Cal:I love her dad..I have always loved her..I always
had the confidence that no matter what or how long
she will always come to me but not this time dad..I
can see through her she wants nothing to do with
me.
Him:then stop crying and fight like a man.
Cal:I am afraid I might do something stupid..I can't
loose her again
Him:then you know what to do
Cal:but it will break her dad
Him:then she will come cry in your arms
He hung up..Cal went up and down the house then
put on his clothes and went out.
After eating Martin dropped me off at home and
went back to work.
Me:(over the moon)hey Mary
Mary:it makes me so happy to see you happy
Me:oh my God I think I found the one..I am inlove..I
have butterflies in my stomach and when I think
about him my heart skips a little..

EPISODE 121

holding flowers. He hugged me and gave me the
flowers.

my mouth with both hands and the flowers fell
down.
Me:yes..yes yes (crying) yes I would love to be your

Everything froze for a moment,that's when I realized
the blood and I remembered the gun shots,I spotted
Cici with the kids,they were hiding behind some
bags,I knelt down,Martin had been shoot on the arm
and he was bleeding. I took of scarf and attended to
stop the blood.The security came and called an
ambulance.
Me:(crying)oh my God,you are hurt

them.
Me:everyone okay
Cici:mama is he going to be okay?
Me:yeah
Tess:I want to see my dad
Me:(hugging her)he is going to be fine.
The police came in and asked us to remain behind
while they searched the whole area and escorted
everyone out.We went to a back room as they asked
us a few questions.
At Botshelo's
He put the cake in the fridge and the scooter behind
the door.
Botshelo:they are going to be here tomorrow

We headed towards the exit when I saw someone
like Cal.

EPISODE 122
Me:can you guys wait for me here I think I saw
someone..
I huried towards the exit door,the person was no way
to be found, my mind was probably playing tricks on
me,Cal was back home.
I caught up with the others and Marvin drove us to
the hospital, it was so quiet in the car,even Channel
was quiet.
The doctor asked us to go in two's to his room so I
waited as Marvin took Tess in.
I looked at my engagement ring, it was beautiful. I
went into the ladies room and locked myself in.I cried
my eyes out,I cried for every pain I went through in
my life,I cried so much my head hurt.After that I
washed my face and went back to the kids.
Cici:mum??
Me:yeah
Cici:its just an arm he won't die
Me:(smiling)I know baby but today was suppost to be
my happy day,the man of my dreams proposed then
got shot.I didn't even have time to be happy and
celebrate..
She hugged me and the rest of the gang followed.
Marvin: you can go in now
Me:(wiping my tears)okay
I went alone in,he was sitting on the bed,his arm had
bandages.
Me:I want to hug you but I am afraid I might hurt
your arm
Martin:babe my arm is fine,they took out the bullet
and sterilized it. Come give me a hug
We hugged for a long time,I didn't want to let go.
Me:I never wanna feel like this again

He read the SMS and smashed the phone on the
ground,he sat furiously on the sofa.
Lone:what happened?
Botshelo:(angry)you see that Phatsimo,I will learn
how to beat a woman with her,she is full of shit

122.5
Lone:what they are not coming?
Botshelo:(red eyes)yeah
Lone:sorry babe
Botshelo:she better enjoy it while it lasts because I
plan on taking full costody of my son.
Lone:...
At Cal's place
Cal:good job,yeah I want her mind to play tricks on
her,I called her with a local number so she will never
think I was envolved..okay man I will deposit your
money now..bye..
He hung up and poured himself a glass of whiskey
and sat down watching the game.The thought that
she stayed behind because of him irritated him,he
took two gulps and poured another glass..
Cal:you are lucky this time Fernandez but not next
time.
At Martin's
The car parked outside and the kids ran inside
admiring the house.
Cici:wow mum this house is so big and pretty
Me:feel free to look around but don't touch anything
Cici:okay
Me:don't run
We said goodbye to Marvin and went to the
bedroom. I helped him lay on the bed.
Me:more pillows?
Martin:yeah
Me:anything to eat?
Martin:bane come seat here
I sat on his left side which was not injured,he hugged
me and I rested my head on his chest,we remained
silent for a few minutes..
Me:are you somehow involved in some drugs or
dealings?
Martin:not ones I know of why?
Me:I feel like I am re living my past,I no longer want to
live in fear and if you are involved I don't think we can
be together.I want a normal man with no shady
businesses, I man with an honest living.
Martin:(smiling)then you are stuck withe forever
Me:(smiling) I want to believe that you were not the
target but somehow deep down inside I feel like my
ex is envolved,I don't know why I feel like...anyway it
can't be him because he called me with his house
landline,he can't be in two places at the same time.
Martin:the police will get to the bottom of everything
babe okay, we will find out what really happened
very soon.
Me:I never got to celebrate my engagement,
thanks..so it happens that you are the only man who
saw me fit to be a wife,the rest saw me as an
incubator..
We both laughed
Martin:their loss is my gain
Me:yeah,let me go prepare you something to eat
Martin:(held my hand)not now
Me:okay let me go check on the kids, I'll be right back.
I found them in the TV room going through channels.
Me:everything okay
Channel:I wish we could stay here forever
Cici:me too
Cj:me three
Me:okay haha I'll get you guys something to eat,don't
touch anything okay.
I have them the snacks and went back to Martin.He
was sweating, I checked his temp with my hand and
he was burning.

Me:you are burning, I think you have an infection..
I dialed the emergency number and they arrived in
less than five minutes.The paramedics took him to
the hospital while I followed them in his car.
He was rushed to the theater. After what felt like a
lifetime the doctor came out taking of his coat.
Doc:Mrs Fernandez?
Me:yes...but we are not married just engaged
Doc:um can you please follow me to my office
Me:(shaking) no please you might as well tell me here.
Doc:no please it would be unprofessional
I slowly walked behind him.
Doc:please seat down
Me:thanks
Doc:it looks like the bullet went far than we saw first
time we treated him,it cut his nerve and he lost lots
of blood,since he said he was okay we took out the
bullet and cleaned the wound but he had an infection
already that's what caused him that fever,we have
managed to repair the nerve but his hand won't be
working any time soon.He is stable now..the fever
has gone down.
Me:(smiling)thank God
Doc:if you would like to see him..
Me:thank you for saving his life
Doc:and congratulations on your engagement.
Me:thanks
I opened the door,he was connected to the oxygen
machine.I sat next to him and took his hand in mine.
Me:I love you..God knows I do and you better pull
through because I want us to start planning our
wedding and go on a honeymoon on your boat.I feel
like you are my last chance at happiness too..(kissed
his hand)get well soon babe

landing.God Maun is so pretty..It was good to be
home.
Just stepping out I saw Botshelo from a distance,I
showed Donah and he ran towards him,Botshelo
picked him up and hugged him tightly. They remained
like that for a few minutes then he let go.

Episode 124
A tall man wearing a black hoodie got in Martin's
room,he locked the door behind him and sat next to
him,he was sleeping.
He took out a syringe from his pocket and injected
him on the hand. Someone tried to open the door,he
put it back in his pocket and got out the window.
The police officer kicked the door and looked
around,he noticed the window was open,he looked
around and saw no one,he called the nurse and told
her what happened.
Nurse:okay I will get the doctor
At Cal's
He got away from the screaming kids and answered
his call outside.
Cal:yes

Outside the door
Officer: when I came back from the toilet I found the

minutes I tried to open and noticed it was locked.So I
kicked it open and noticed the window was open
Captain :I want all the reception footage of today
Officer:yes sir
The doctors passed them pushing in big
machines,they close the door.
Doc 1:we are loosing him,clear
Doc 2:its not working,he has no heartbeat
Doc:clear... Again and again until we get a heartbeat
The nurse walked in
Nurse:sir he was injected with chlorobyn,we found it
in his blood
Doc:what do we do now?
Nurse:charcoal will lower his blood flow which means
it won't spread fast
Doc:good get on it right away

Me:what happened?
Ame:stroke
Me:but dad was always healthy, how..I...I didn't even
come to my father's funeral what kind of a person
am I? He was the only parent we have..
Ame:its okay sis if you had known you would have
come,don't punish yourself for things we can't
change,it's well
I ran to my bedroom and closed the door behind
me,it hurt so much that I couldn't be there for my
sister when she needed me the most, I am the only
family she has,I couldn't even attend my father's
funeral.
I woke up to someone playing with my toes,I opened
my eyes slowly and Titi was smiling at me.I put her on
the bed and we cuddled..Ame came in holding a bowl.
Ame:was she pulling your toes?
Me:(smiling)yeah
Ame:she loves doing that,I'd get so annoyed when
she pulls my toes ke otsela.
Me:I am sorry I wasn't there for you
Ame:it's okay
Me:no its not
Ame:I know you Tsitsi,you would never miss our
dad's funeral
Me:I am such a bad person, I should seat down ke
itshekatsheke.I haven't made dad proud of me when
he was alive I don't want to dissapoint him
anymore..(waving my hand)I got engaged
Ame:its nice I have been looking at it
Me:so ntha you didn't say anything
Ame:I've grown up mma ,iv learnt to wait and

Ame:mmmh and I always thought Cal was hot
Me:hey never mention that creature in front of me.
Ame:he is handsome
Me:and rich
Ame:mmh girls,the ring says a lot
Me:he has been single for more than 5 years now,he
is everything,sweet,caring,loving and honest.I love
him more than I have ever loved any man.He
completes me
Ame:I am glad you found someone,you look healthy o
can tell you are happy
Me:he was shot,he is in a critical situation right now
that's why I brought the kids back.I know people will
judge me and think I don't love my kids but I do.But
Martin has no one,just his brother and daughter and
his PA.He is my fiance and I want to be there for him.
Ame:hey,you know the saying"until you carry your
bucket of water then you will realize the importance
of every drop"
Me:thanks,I needed to hear that
Ame:(looking at the baby)she fell asleep
Me:we should organize a play date with her and

the family
Ame:good idea

Episode 125
Ame spent the night,the following day we went to
see our parent's graves.It was so hard for me to hold
tears back I some how felt like it was all my fault.My
father died without even knowing where I was,he
didnt get the chance to say goodbye to his
grandkids,how was I going to explain that their grans
was gone.How was I going to look at people,who
doesn't attend their parent's funeral?
As soon as I got home I got a call from Marvin.
Me:hello
Marvin:(down)hey how soon can you be back
Me:(exited)he is awake?
Marv:cant discuss it over the phone
Me:(scared)what?is he okay did anything happen to
him(panicking)please if something is wrong tell me
now
Marv:he didnt make it
Me:what?
Marvin:He died this morning
Those were the last words I heard from Marvin,I dont
know what happened next what I know is I woke up
in the hospital,Ame was sleeping next to me.
Me:(shaking her)Ame
Ame:(waking up)hey..hey you are awake
Me:(dry throat)what happened?
Ame:I should call the nurse
Me:(crying)tell me I was dreaming please tell me it
was a bad dream
She went outside to cal a nurse,she checked my
blood pressure and eyes
Nurse:you are okay but I am keeping you o overnight
She walked out and I tried to get off bed but my legs
couldn't carry me,I fell down when everything re
played in my mind,I remembered the last person I
talked to was Marvin,he told me something about
Martin not making it,I cryed my eyes out because I
didn't want to believe even for a bit that he was
telling the truth,it was just his arm,the doctors
assured me he was going to be okay but then again
Marvin had no reason to lie to me.Who lies about
death,well apart from Calvin and his family.
Ame walked in and helped me stand,my eyes were
swollen and my head hurt.
Me:he is gone isnt he?
Ame:mmmh
Me:God is punishing me for all the bad things I did in
my life.He took away my happiness,I...(crying)I loved
him,he made me feel special,he loved me no matter
what..(crying louder) he loved me even when I told
him I had 4 kids..
She hugged me while I cried my pain out..it
hurt..more than anything I have ever felt.
We had our life planned out and now he was gone,I
was never going to see his smile again or hear him
laugh..
I fell asleep in Ame`s arms
Marvin called to tell me about the funeral
arrangements.
I got released a day later,that evening I took a plane
to Mauritius with my little sister,she was the only
family I had apart from my kids.
Marv meet us at the airport,just one look at him and I
broke down,it was the first time I realised they
looked alike.
Ame helped me get in the car,everything reminded
me of him.
Ame:I wish we didnt have to meet like this
Marv:me too
Ame:I was looking foward to coming here for my
sister's wedding.
Marv:only God knows why it happened but I am glad
my brother died happy,I had never seen him that
happy.His soul will rest in peace
Me:where is Tessa?
Marv:she has been staying at my place,I took her to
school
Me:does she know?
Marv:it is all over the tv and radio so I thought its
best I tell her
Me:how is she?
Marv:a bit mature about the whole thing,she cried
then said she was glad her dad was not alone he
would be with her mum.
Me:(smiling)she is so sweet,so are you going to be
staying with her?
Marv:I am moving back to the states so I was
thinking of taking her with me
We arrived at home,there were a few people in the
house,they all passed on their condolences.After the
sermon they left.
Tess came back from school,she looked pale.
Me:hey
Tess:hey
Me:how was school?
Tess:everyone was looking at me
Me:why?
Tess:because daddy is dead
I looked at Marvin,I didnt know what to say next
Priest:would you like to say your last goodbyes
before we creminate him?
Episode 126
Marv:would you like to see him?
Me:(sobbing)yes
Ame:be strong
At the mortuary
They opened his cofin,the first thing I noticed was he
was blue,okay I have seen a few dead people but I
have never seen a blue one,well maybe its because I
have never seen a dead white person. He looked
peaceful like we was sleeping, I couldn't hold back
the tears.I touched his face,he was so cold.
I ran outside and vomited,Ame came behind me with
a bottle of water.
Me:I can't,I can't see him like that,please if its a dream
wale me up now
Ame:(hugging me)I am so sorry sis I wish I can tell you
its a dream but it's not..but hey you heard what his
brother said, his last days he was happy,you made
him happy.
Me:(crying out loud)no I want him to wake
up..please..God why me
Ame helped me to the car,after a few minutes we
left,I went straight to his bedroom,it was the last
place we talked,the last place we kissed and hugged.I
threw myself on the bed and cried my eyes out.
The following day we held a memorial service at the
city hall,almost everyone was there to pay their last
respect.Everyone talked about how nice he was,a
role model to many.
After the service everyone came to say their
condolences then we went home.I spent the night
with Tess in Martin's room.
The next morning at breakfast
Marv:The priest brought the ashes
Me:where do we scatter them?
Marv:I was hoping you can have them
Me:what? In my culture its unlike for to criminate
someone,let alone live in the house with them.
Marv:okay, the lawyer will be here this afternoon the
sooner we read it then Tess and I can leave
Me:I don't need to be present
Marv:you were his fiance
Me:I appreciate everything but whatever he had
belongs to you and Theresa. I will keep the ring..
Marv:but I would love you to be there
Me:okay.. Can I ask for a small favor?
Marv:sure no problem
Me:I will like to change my last name to his
Ame:(surprised) what?
Me:thats if you don't mind
Marv:(looking at Ame)I don't mind not at all
Me:thanks
After breakfast I gave Ame a tour around the house
then we cooked something before the lawyer
arrived.
We sat in the dining room as he read all their legal
boring stuff.
Lawyer:Martin leaves half of his asserts to his
daughter, that is his company,the house, all his
businesses in the united kingdom,also he left for her
amount of 21 million $ which she will only have
access to when she is 18 years.
He leaves all his cars to his brother and the cleaning
company .The rest of his money goes to..

126.5
Lawyer:the remaining goes to charity organizations
he has been helping.
Marv:and the boat?
Lawyer:he came to see me last week,he wrote a note
for Sunshine as he said.(took out the note)should I
read it?
Me:yes please
Lawyer:"I don't know why I am even writing this
letter when I know I am going to be here for a long
time to annoy you,you love me now but trust me
when you get to know my insecurities and that I
sometimes don't brush my teeth twice in a day you
will start hating me,I am such a baby at heart,I will
want all your attention and force you to cuddle with
me and talk about the future when you want to go
shopping.I guess you are going to read this letter in
50 years and everything I said would have
happened,you are probably laughing now thinking
God this man was stupid.
**I smiled**
But if I die sooner know that I leave April(the boat)to
you,that's where we spent our first night together,
that's where I first saw your flawless body,that's
where we shared our first kiss.She is all yours
baby,please don't sell it if you ever need cash you can
always ask Marv.
One more last thing,I know you told me you don't
want any more kids but I would love for you to carry
my child,if its not 50 years later you are probably
thinking how because I am gone"
**he was right I was thinking how**
"I have banked some of my sperms,I was going to ask
someone to have my kid in the future but you came
along,there is no better person than you,imagine a
little mini me running around to remind you of our
love,if its a boy I want you to name him Andre or
Andrea for a girl"
**I started crying**
"But this is a useless letter because I am not going
anywhere anytime soon,love you always Mrs Martin
Fernandez."
I stormed out of the room headed to the bathroom,I
let out all the food,that letter just made things worse
for me. Someone knocked,I rinsed my mouth and
opened the door.
Marv:are you okay?
Me:(shaking my head)no..
Marv:(hugging me)you can talk to me
Me:I miss him..so much..we never had the time to
celebrate our engagement or tell him how much I
loved him,we just got to know each other
Marv:I know I know
Me:why me? Why why (crying)
Marv:the lawyer was not done
Me:I don't want to hear more of that letter
Marv:its something else,hospital report
Me:okay I'll be there let me wash my face
I washed my face and joined them.
Lawyer:the hospital brought in the results of his
death,this i can only disclose to the family until police
investigation are done..

Episode 127
Marv:We are all ears
Lawyer:He had a deadly poison in his blood,it stops
the heart from beating and shuts down all
organs.The police
I stood up and ran to his room,okay it was bad when I
cried that he died from the shooting but to hear that
someone actually killed him was too much for me.It
made me question if I really knew Martin,was he
hiding some bad evil things beneath that cute smile?I
mean no one kills you for nothing, was he involved in
some illegal things like Calvin was that the reason
they shoot him and went to finish him at the
hospital??
Ame walked in with a glass of water.
Ame:You know its okay to cry right
Me:(crying)I don't know why I attract the bad guys in
my life,first it was Calvin now Martin
Ame:(surprised) what do you mean?
Me:they...he was...he was killed intentionally, they
went to finish him off at the have hospital.
Ame:you are not making any sense now,the police
said the guy who shot at him said he was..
Me:he didn't die from the wound, they poisoned him
at the hospital
Ame:(covering her mouth)oh my God
Me:what if he was involved in some shady business
who knows the people might come after us.
Ame:Hey stop thinking avery man is Calvin,I didn't
know him that much but from the respect and love
he got from his community I can tell he was a decent
man.
Me:after all this it makes me question my choice in
men,what if..
Ame:(interrupt) no,he is nothing like Calvin don't you
compare them.There is a reason why you fell for him
out of all this fine men out here,its because he was
different. Not every rich person is a criminal and
whoever killed him might be a business rival.
Me:thanks because I don't want to destroy the
memories I have of him.I want to always be
remember him as my prince charming.
Ame:(handing me the glass of water)here
Me:thanks
She left,I opened his drawer and took out his tie,it
smelt like him.I opened the drawers and took all his
stuff out and put on the bed,I laid on top of them
until I fell asleep.
I woke up to Tess calling my name.
Me:(sleepy) yeah
Tess: I want to sleep in dad's room with you tonight
Me:okay,did you brush your teeth?
Tess:yeah
Me:let me see
She smiled revealing her white teeth
Me:wait did you have your fruit?
Tess:(smiling)yes
Me:open your mouth I want to see
Tess:see what you can't tell if I had my fruit or not
Me:I have special powers,now open
She got off bed and stood at the far end smiling and
opened her mouth
Me:nope,you didn't, go take one so we share okay

She came back with an apple,she took a bite and
handed it to me.
Tess:teach me your special power
Me:okay I will teach you when you have babies of
your own
Tess:okay (lowered her voice)can I ask you
something?
Me:sure
Tess:so are you my mum now?
Me:(surprised) do you want me to be your mummy?
Tess:yes
Me:okay starting from today I am your mum okay
Tess:(smiling)I've never had a mum before,should I
call you mum or mummy?
Me:which one do you like?
Tess:Mummy
Me:okay you can call me mummy
Tess:(hugging me)I love you mummy
Me:I love you too
The next morning Marv took us to the boat before
we left,all the memories came back,I remembered
the photos,the breakfast in bed and the making out.
We sailed just a few miles then came back to the
house,he and Tess were leaving in a week's time so
he was buisy handling and apointing new positions at
the companies.
We left in two days,things were much harder for me
at the airport because all I remembered was him
proposing, the next minute everyone is running for
their lives,me looking for my kids and him telling me
he had been shot.
We arrived home early in the morning the next
day,the first thing I wanted was to see my son.After
Ame left I called Botshelo to bring him over.
Am hour later I saw his car packing outside.I meet
them halfway taking Dinah from him.
Me:hey baby I missed you
Botshelo:I thought you said you were not coming
back anytime soon
Me:(avoiding eye contact)change of plans
Botshelo:(joking)or maybe Calvin messed up for you
again
Me:(furious)never mention that man's name in my
house
Botshelo:oh you mean the same Calvin who made
you dissapear without a trace with my son
I ignored him because I could tell he was provoking
me.
Botshelo:let me tell you because it looks like you
haven't realized it yet.As long as Calvin is alive you
will never find happiness with another man,you
belong to him,he controls your life so you might as
well stop hating him because in a week or two you
will be back in his bed.
I threw Donah's spiderman figure toy at him,it hit his
forehead and scratched him.
Me:so you think I am a whore right, fine think
whatever you want .Just so you know the reason
why I came back is because (waving my hand)I just
buried my fiance,he was the reason why I was going
back because he was sick.Now I am back because he
is dead,I have no other reason to stay in
Mauritius.mxm who is Calvin kante who can control
me that much,he is not God he doesn't control my
happiness just so you know...

Episode 128
Botshelo:(scratching his head)I am sorry your fiance
died
Me:please I will like to be alone with my son if you
don't mind
Botshelo:when should I come take him?

swallowed a bit and felt disgusted,Cal grabbed a
towel and wiped his dick then threw it at her.
Cal;(taking out cash from his wallet)here now get
dressed and get the fuck out of my house
Girl;(getting dressed)i hope you rot in hell for what
you did to my body
She took the money and walked out of the
bedroom,she couldnt walk properly and she was
thirsty but there was no way she was wasting time in
that house.
AT BOTSHELO'S
Lone walked in with a plastic of mangoes,she washed
them and sat down watching tv with Botshelo in
silence.A few minutes later his phone rang and he
stood up walking outside.
Botshelo;hey should i come pick him up
Me;i will bring him on monday morning...Botshelo r

Botshelo;(scratching his head)where is that coming

ended i can just wake up and decide to hate you
Me;i want a clear answer,yes or no
Botshelo;yes,i still love you
Meanwhile Lone who was evesdropping on their
conversation walked back slowly,tears filled her
eyes.What she has always being afraid of was finally
happening,with Phatsimo back it was only a matter
of time before they got back together,she went into
the shower and opened the water then sat down.
Me;i want you to stop loving me and love Lone,the
girl is insecure and she loves you,you and can never
happen because i already gave my heart to someone
else
Botshelo;how do you know that she is insecure?
Me;i can tell by the way she always looks at me,rata
ngwana rra and make her feel like she is the only girl
in the world,she loves you and takes care of your son
like he is her own.
Botshelo;i try my best kana ke wena o itseng gore ga

Botshelo hung up and went back inside the
house,Lone was not in,he heared the water from the
shower,he took off his clothes and stepped in,to his
surprise Lone was sitting down on the floor crying
Botshelo;Babe
Lone;(took off her engagement ring)O bona nna
Botshelo i am still young,i can find someone who will
love me unconditionally not someone who is still
hung up on their ex,i hope you have a happy life le

her clothes in her handbag

He put the ring in the drawer and put on his
clothes,he grabbed his car keys and left..
Botshelo;if you are still going put the keys at the
usual spot
He slammed the door and got in his car,Lone sat on
the bed crying
AT LEFIKA's PLACE
Loud rnb music was playing on the speakers
outside,some of her friends were in the pool,Jaden
pulled her by the hand going inside the house
Jaden;where are your parents?
Cici;my dad is out of town and my mum too
Jaden;do you want to go to your room
Cici;ive never done it before
Jaden;i know,you are few of the sweet ones

Jaden;we dont need them,its your first time right
Cici;what if i fall pregnant?
Jaden;babe trust me
Cici;(hesitating)okay my room is this way

Episode 130
At Lefika"s
Jaden`s phone ran when they entered the bedroom.
Cici:aren't you going to answer
Jaden:its no one
Cici:(snatched the phone from his hand) hello
Voice:who are you?
Cici:I am his girlfriend
Dave tried to take it back but she ran in the
bathroom and closed the door.
Voice:I am his girlfriend too,who are you?
Cici:Rita?
Voice:Ciara?
She hung up,unlocked the door and threw the phone
at Jaden who was sitting on the bed.
Cici:(teary)you should leave
Jaden:babe Rita and I have long been over she is the
one always calling me
Cici:(attitude)I said leave
Jaden:you are not as cool as I thought you were
Cici:do I look like I care what you think about me,get
the hell out of my room you two timing man whore
Jaden:(puting on his shoes)I am going to tell everyone
we did it anyway
Cici:(moved loser to Jaden)then you will have to face
my dad and the police and my other dad,he will rip
out your heart while you watch
He took his jacket and ran out of the room,Cici closed
the door and laid on her bed crying,she dialed my
number.
Me:hey baby
Cici:(crying)mummy...
Me:(worried)baby are you crying
Cici:promise you wont shout at me?
Me:Ciara if this is about you disrespecting your
father then dont expect me to be cool about it
Cici:I almost had sex tonight
Me:(covering my mouth)you what?
Cici:I know its stupid mum and I am young but I felt it
was the only way he and I can be together
Me:what happened?
Cici:there is this other girl Rita everyone knows she
sleeps around so when she called Jaden claiming to
be his girlfriend I realised that even if I sleep with him
he will never like me like I like him,to him sex is no
bigie but to me it is,I've never done it
Me:I am glad you realised that before you slept with
him but I am very disappointed in you,you are only
thirteen,you should have learnt a lesson from your
own parents,didn't I tell you what happened?I too
thought sleeping with Lefika will tame him but no,I
ended up being a single teenage mother.Please just
focus on your studies and stay away from boys
Cici:I will mama,please don't tell dad
Me:I wont if you promise me to stay away from that
boy,you are too young to be having a boyfriend.
Cici:I promise I will stay away from him
Me:okay then I won't tell your dad too,wait where
are you now and where is he?
Cici:he went out,I had a small party,I will go tell
everyone to go home
Me:okay I love you
Cici:love you too...and mum...thanks for being my
mum and always putting up with me I know I am not
the sweetest daughter
Me:(smiling)you are my everything,you made who I
am today I thank God for you everyday
Cici:bye
Me:bye
At Lefika`s house
He searched for the key where Lone always puts it
when she leaves,it was not there,he noticed the door
was a little opened and the tv was on.He pushed it a
little and got in.Lone was sitting on the bed in her
lingerie,her nipples were showing from the lacy bra
she was wearing.
Lone:hi
Botshelo:hey
Lone:(stood up)I don't know if you want dessert now
or after your shower
Botshelo:(smiling)I haven't eaten anything all day
Lone:(pouting sexily)are you hungry?
She slowly took off her braa walking to the stove,she
bended a little and took a plate from the oven.She
handed him a small bucket and washed his hands,she
smelt nice,Botshelo noticed she was wearing the
engagement ring.She gave him the food and sat next
to him.
Botshelo:(taking a bite)mmmg nice
Lone:I love you
He put the plate on the table and baby kissed her.
Botshelo:I think I am ready for my dessert now
He kissed her neck then french kissed,she tasted
sweet.He slowly helped her take off her panty then
she helped him take of his clothes,she looked at his
hard abs going down to his dick,she smiled a little,not
every woman is lucky to find a good guy with a big
dick.She gave him a few strokes as he kissed her neck
while his left hand played with her clit and the other
hand cupped her small breast,she moaned a little and
adjusted her body on the sofa before she fell off.He
picked her up and put her on his lap,she gently sat on
it,she could feel it slowly stretching her small cookie.
Lone:(closing her eyes)aah babe shit...aaah
She humped a few times before he helped her,it
went all in
Lone:aah babe
Botshelo:(held her waist)oh shit babe I love you
Lone:babe the door
He stood up and supported her,he walked to the door
and pinned her against the wall while his hand
reached for the door handle and locked it.
He started humping faster,he felt her cum all over his
dick but he was far from cuming.He put her on the
edge of the bed and made her face the wall,he looked
at her small whole as it acomodated his big
anaconda.He went all in
After a few sweet moans from both of them he went
faster and faster,her vaginal walls contracted
tightening his dick in.
He went faster then rested his head on her
back,after a few seconds he pulled out,Lone fell
down on the bed with her tummy.

embarrassed myself.

noise outside,I grabbed a pepper spray and tiptoed to
the door.Someone grabbed me by my hair and hit me
with something hard on the head.My eyes became
blurry,I could only see the person's feet.
I woke up in the middle of the night still on the
floor,my head was heavy,I looked around the room
and there were only sofas left,the TV was gone and
the home theater.I managed to stand up feeling dizzy
I fell on the sofa,my phone was still in the charger,I
dialed Ame.

We went outside,the neighbors were awake
watching from their fences.
I answered all their questions, they went around the
yard looking for whatever they were looking for then

where Ame now lived.
The following morning I got a call from Calvin

plane ticket and booked one leaving at 1 pm.
I wanted to be there when the police catch the
thieves,I wanted to be there with Calvin and get to
the bottom of everything, I hate to think such bad
about Cal but Ame made sense,not about Martin
though.
The plane landed at half past three,I called Cal on the
way to his house.
Me:I want to be there when they arrest the thieves
Cal:okay I am home,let me have a quick shower
At Cal's
A young girl opened for me,she was wearing a short
dress and sleepers
Me:hi
Her:hi I will call him for you
Cal came out zipping his pants,he smiled at me and
grabbed his keys
Cal:you look nice,the kids are at a friend's party
Me:thanks
Cal:should we?
He kept looking at his phone
Cal:they have been at airport junction for over an
hour now,I already called the police we will meet
there
Me:okay
We drove in silence until we reached the mall,I could
see the car from a distance,we waited with the police
over a few minutes until the men got in the car,the
police stopped them.
Officer:step out of the vehicle
They all stepped out
Officer:put your hands where we can see them,we
believe you are driving a stolen car
I looked at Cal,there was nothing, no facial
expression.
Cal:I think I have seen this guys somewhere?
Me:really? Where?
Cal:I don't remember
Me:are you sure you didn't plot this whole thing?
Cal:what?
Me:you heard me

133.5
He walked away from me,I followed him
Me:now it makes sense,oh my God how could I be so
stupid you planned the whole thing,I am afraid to
even think you could go to that extend,who are
you?what did you do the the man I fell in love with
years ago?
He just looked at me without saying a word.One
officer walked towards us
Officer:Man we want to thank you,this men are
hardcore criminals they have been all over the news
lately, ba utswa dikoloi,they were probably on their
way out of the country.
Cal:yes I saw them on the news I knew they looked
familiar
Officer:please follow us to the police station
Me:right behind you
They arrested the men and the other officer got in
my car and followed them. I had never been that
embarrassed, just seconds back I accused Calvin of
being involved with them,he walked to his car and I
followed him.The drive to the police station was
awkward,I wanted to apologize but didn't know
where to start.
At the station
I did the formalities and agreed to stay for a few days
for the Court procedure.
Me:I am hungry should be grab something to eat?
Cal:I am fine
Me:please I know you want to
Cal:(playing with his car keys) why do you want to eat
with someone who ordered people to rob you?
Me:I am sorry just that..can I explain later right now I
am so embarrassed
Cal:(looking at his watch)I have a meeting in an hour
so if you don't mind you can use the combies after
your lunch.
Me:why are you being like that?
He left me standing there like a fool,got in his car and
drove away.I ordered pizza and went to his
house.Channel came running to me and CJ followed
Channel:mummy
Me:(picked her up)hey pumpkin
Channel:where is Donah?
Me:he is with his dad,hey CJ I love your hair
I put her down and picked up CJ,I kissed his cheek
and he rubbed it off
Me:oh I see you are no longer my little man
Channel:he has a girlfriend
Me:oh really?
CJ:her name is Thato she likes playing with my hair
Me:oh so she is your girlfriend because she plays
with your hair
CJ:yes
We sat down as they told me about school and
everything, it was nice seeing them.The pizza arrived
and we had some slices and drink
Ah hour later
Me:guys I have to go find accommodation then I will
come pick you so we spend the night
Channel:but we have a spare room mummy or you
can sleep with me
Me:am not sure that's a good idea,I haven't spoken to
your dad yet
Channel:he wont mind
Cal:actually I do
We all turned around
Me:I'll see you guys later
Channel:please daddy let mum stay

134
Cal:Nel go take the groceries from the car
Channel:then mummy can stay for dinner
Me:(knelt before them)I am going to book a big room
with a big TV,bye the pool then we can order
anything we want and watch TV all night,how
awesome is mummy?
CJ:(excited) awesome
Channel:mummy can we go take Cici
Me:okay,be prepared in half an hour okay
They ran to their rooms excited. Cal went into his
room and I followed him
Me:can we talk?
Cal:(sat on the bed)I am listening
Me:I am sorry for accusing you earlier,I know you
better I shouldn't have let Ame influence my
thinking,you are a lot of things I don't like but I know
you will never put my life at risk like that. Please find
it in your heart to forgive me
Cal:I thought out of all this people you were the only
one who knew me but I guess I was wrong, you stay
with an infant why would I be so cruel to your son
when you took care of my daughter like she was
yours.You are right I am a lot of things but I don't
stoop that low,if I wanted your attention I would
have long done something, aren't you asking yourself
why I no longer call you?its because I have moved on
and so should you,stop thinking I am behind
everything bad happening to you.
Me:you are right,I should move on, I am glad you
did.Can I spend tomorrow with the kids?
Cal:you can use the spare room I'll go sleep at my girl
friend's.
Me:thanks plus I didn't have enough money for the
whole week
Cal:(grabbed his car keys)bye
Me:wait...can I get a hug?
He closed me between his big broad shoulders,I
rested my head on his chest, we remained like that
for a few minutes no one saying anything.
Me:I hope we can be friends for the sake of our kids
Cal:me too,as long as you stop accusing me of
everything
Me:(smiling) I won't.. Can I ask you something?
Cal:sure
Me:do you love her?
Cal:who?
Me:your girlfriend
Cal:yeah why?
Me:just asking
Cal:can I ask you something too?
Me:as long as its not stupid
Cal:(laughed)did you love him?Martin
Me:(freed myself from him)yeah I did why?
Cal:just asking
Me:no come on tell me why you asked me
Cal:I asked you for the same reason you asked me
Me:(smiling)cocky
Cal:you are cocky,don't burn my house okay,see you
guys tomorrow
Me:bye
I walked him to the door,I leaned over it after he left.I
smiled thinking of all the things him and I went
through, I was glad he found love but my other heart
was jealous, jealous that maybe he loved her more
than he ever loved anyone.
Me:God please help me fight this feelings I have for
this man...
Episode 134.5
We watched movies,eat junk food then I tucked them
in.I went into the guest bathroom and had a hot
shower,I washed my clothes and dried them since I
didn't come with any clothes.I applied lotion and
went in Cal's room looking for some of his T shirts I
could wear.His clothes were nicely packed,I took out
his Liverpool T-shirt and wore it,it covered enough
skin.I sat on the bed and looked around the room.It
was beautiful, he had a big frames photo of him and
the twins wearing all white,it was so cute,I opened
his lower drawer,I knew he always kept the photos
there,I went through the album, it made me realize
how much I have missed on the twins lives,they were
raised by Cal's parents then Cal.They didn't know my
side of the family.I put the album back in the drawer.I
laid on the bed and called Ame
Ame:don't make calling me this late a habit
Me:you were wrong, he was not involved
Ame:huh?
Me:Calvin was not involved in the whole robbery
thing,he helped me get back my car.
Ame:where are you?
Me:Gabs
Ame:at his house?
Me:no I booked into a hotel
Ame:send me a picture on watsapp
Me:I don't have to explain myself to you kana if I sat I
am at a hotel then believe me ga ke ngwana
Ame:you are right, ga o ngwana
Me:what's that suppost to mean?
Ame:you are not a child so you know exactly what
you are doing
Me:I will be back in a few days
Ame:If you get back with Calvin then I won't go ahead
with the surrogacy
Me:what?
Ame:good night
She hung up on me,I looked at the time it was 00:30.
As I opened the door I almost bumped into Cal.
Me:sorry
Cal:(looking at me from head to toe)it looks great on
you
Me:I am sorry I had nothing to wear, I'll go buy a few
dresses tomorrow
Cal:its okay, you can keep it
Me:I thought you said you were spending the night at
your girlfriend's
Cal:long story
Me:okay,good night
Cal:wait,how about a nightcap?
Me:(smiling)okay
I sat on the kitchen counter as he poured two glasses
of red wine.
Me:(took a sip)mmmh nice
Cal:very,I had it specially made for me when I was in
Paris
Me:you lie
Cal:look at its name
Me:(read the name)wow,its nice you should think
about going into wine business
Cal:nah..not for me
Me:(took another sip)mmh you should give me two
bottles
Cal:I will
Me:so you still not going to tell me why you came

Cal:I found her with another man
Me:what?
Cal:its fine though,it was just sex
Me:Come on you can talk to me,I can see you are hurt
Cal:its karma
Me:haha what do you mean

Me:(took a sip)probably

Cal:want something to eat?
Me:something salty yeah
Cal:can i make grilled chicken?
Me:yeah,are you still good at it?
Cal:yeah,that's the only thing I am good at.. Ohhh and
fucking up
Me:(took another sip)haha you are a great dad
Cal:I try...don't you ever wonder how things would
have been if I didn't fake my death?
Me:I used to..not anymore..I realised you and me..can
never work
Cal:yeah me too
I poured myself another glass and walked outside
while he marinated the meat..He put it in the griller
and joined me by the pool
Cal:10 minutes
Me:o bata go njesa nama e tala
Cal:haha okay I'll add other minutes
I put my feet in the pool and looked at the moon,this
was the life everyone dreamt of.
Cal:still don't know how to swim?
Me:Before Martin died he was teaching me,I felt so
stupid all the kids can swim except for their mum
Cal:I am sorry
Me:(rubbed of my tear)its fine,ke life I'll get over it
soon
Cal:you really loved him didn't you?
Me:yeah,(splashed him with water)hey we are not
gonna waste this awesome wine over sad stories.
Cal:you are right,so tell me something exiting
Me:Donah knows how to count from one to ten,he is
only two but he knows his alphabets and can
understand a little when watching cartoons, I don't
mean to brag but..
Cal:haha okay let me brag too,Channel...oh my God all
she knows is to talk loudly
Me:haha wonder who she gets it from
Cal:don't start I am quiet
Me:o hithile bonokwane
Cal:ao?
I put the glass down and dived into the pool,he took
off his clothes and remained in his boxer briefs,my
eyes stuck on his anaconda, damn talk about being
pretty downstairs.
Cal:take of the t shirt
Me:I am not wearing anything under
Cal:even better,you can stop looking at my dick now
Me:(embarrassed) I was not
He dived in and swam towards me,I took off the t
shirt
Me:I don't think we should swim I am drunk
Cal:don't worry you won't drown I am here
Me:this feels wrong but I am having so much fun
Cal:me too,you look nice by the way
Me:I want to do something
Cal:what?
Me:I want to blame it on the alcohol whenever I
remember it and I want you never to remind me of it
Cal:can't agree to something I know nothing about
I got out of the pool and walked to the kitchen,came
out with the bottle of wine and sat on the chair
pouring my glass.
He got out and I poured him another glass.Couldn't
keep my eyes off his hard dick.
Cal:you being naked makes things very difficult for
me
I got up and kissed him

Episode 136
He picked me up,I wrapped my legs around him as we
french kissed,his breath smelt of the wine.He
pressed my butt as we walked towards the kitchen
door.
Me:wine
He went back and grabbed the bottle,he put me on
the kitchen counter and spread my legs apart.He
kissed my neck going down to my breasts,his thumb
played with my clit,I put my hand in his boxer and
took out the big fat thang,gosh women are indeed
very strong.He gasped for air as I stroked it,his
middle finger was inside my nanana..it had been so
long,more than a year actually.
He picked me up again and pressed me against the
wall then directed himself in.
Me:(out of breath)aah aah,cal aah
Cal:shit babe
He went in slowly as I scratched his back with my
nails,his mouth pressed on to mine as we both
breathed heavily.
Me:tomorrow...tomorrow I want to forget this...aah
shit babe..I want to forget this ever happened
He went in deeper,ladies have you ever been
penetrated so deep you feel like the dick is poking
your interstines,you know the kinda pain that you
enjoy.
He held my butt in suspense and moved from the
wall,I could hear the sound of my thighs on his.He
turned me around and made me touch the
counter,he folded my knees and and held on to them
as he humped faster.
Okay that position I didnt know,I wasnt comfortable
kept thinking what if he enjoys too much and let go
of my knees I was probably going to loose a tooth or
two.
After a few seconds before I could tell him I wasn't
comfortable he let go of my one leg,I stood on one
leg and he put the other on his chest,I looked down
my vagina and saw his dick going in and out.
Cal:babe are you okay?
Me:(moaning)mmmh
He picked me up as we walked to the bedroom
kissing,he kicked the door open and laid me on the
bed and got ontop of me,he looked straight into my
eyes as he slowly penetrated again.He went slowly
still maintaining eye contact.
Cal:I dont want you to ever forget this day
Me:(closed my eyes)...
He went a little faster then I felt the walls of my
vagina contract
Both:(moaning)aa@@$($;$=aah
He laid ontop of me both of us breathing heavily.We
remained like that for a few minutes then he pulled
out and wiped himself with a towel.He sat in front of
me and spread my shaky legs,he wiped me.
Cal:I missed you
Me:(pretending to be asleep)mmmh
Cal:(shaking me)babe
He got up and put a cover ontop of me,he slept
behind me and cuddled.
I was feeling quilty and ashamed at the same
time,okay truth is I wanted to cuddle with him but
my mind told me otherwise.Actually the truth is I was
not feeling guilty,I was just thinking what would
Botshelo and Ame think of me if they ever found out I
slept with Calvin after telling them how much I hated
him,I guess Botshelo was right,no matter what he
put me through I was always going to end up in his
bed,it made me question if I really loved Martin.
I fell asleep my mind still asking questions I had no
answers to.
I woke up to the kids making noice,Cal was not in
bed,he opened the door and got in with a tray.
Me:that looks delish
Cal:the meat from last night
Me:last night,mmmh my head hurts
Cal:its the wine
I took one fried potato chip and dipped it in the
nandos sauce.
Me:mmmh just what I need
Cal:coffee?
Me:thanks,make it strong
I continued eating then the door open,Cici was
standing at me surprised.
Me:(embarrassed)hey
Cici:(attitude)really mum?
Me:(covering my breasts)what?
Cici:stop confusing us if you guys are back together
then just be,we are tired of your silly break ups.Make
up your mind already
Me:what I do with whoever is none of your business
okay and don't forget I am the adult here
Cici:(mumbling)sometimes I wonder if you know what
an adult is
Me:what did you say?
The door opened wider and Cal came in with a cup of
coffee
Cici:daddy
Cal:princess
Cici:mummy enjoy your coffee while its still hot
I swallowed a big lump and smiled,waits Ciara could
take the award for the most annoying ungrateful
unkind disrespectful little spoilt brat.
Cal:what was that about?
Me:nothing she was just saying hi
Cal:should I lock the door?
Me:yeah I don't want the twins find me in here,they
will get confused
Cal:yeah,they are having their breakfast in the
garden
Me:mmmh
Cal:are you sure you are okay?
Me:yeah(took a sip of the coffee)I am awesome
My phone ran,Ame was video calling
Me:do you mind?
Cal:(moved further)no
Me:hey
Ame:hey,did you sleep okay?
Me:yeah
Ame:I am sorry about last night,I know you are not
stupid enough to go back to Calvin.
Me:its okay you are just being a sister
Ame:I love you
Me:I live you too sis
Ame:later akere
Me:bye
I hung up and looked at Cal
Me:I am sorry you had to hear that
Cal:(took the coffee from me)it makes everything
exiting
He got ontop of me and covered us with the duvet

Episode 137
After our quicky we showered together,he brought
my clothes and I joined the kids.
Me:I want to buy a few clothes can you please lent
me your car?
Cal:sure
Cici:can we take the German machine?
Me:the BMW is okay
Cici:(puppy face)daddy
Cal:okay
Me:guys finish up and bath,I am giving you 30
minutes
Channel:I don't want to go
Me:come on you will buy too
Channel:no
Cal:whats wrong baby?
He got off her chair and ran to the house,CJ followed
her.
Me:did I say something?
Cici:(gave me an evil eye)may e you did something
Cal:just let her be (stood up)I am going to work
Me:okay, have a nice day
Cici:mum
Me:(took a bite of strawberry) mmmh
Cici:do you think you are a good role model?
Me:do you think I am?
Cici:I think we both know you are not,stop confusing
us for Christ sake we are just kids,we need stable
homes not parents who act like love sick teenagers.If
its not you its dad don't you think it hurts us when
our friends talk about going out with their parents
and visiting relatives,we don't have anything to brag
about because the moment i start talking about you
and daddy by the time am finished you guys have
already broken up,same with dad.
She left me and walked to the house,I followed her.
Me:Cici
Cici:(crying)can't you see what you are doing to
us,you never consider us,if you are happy its
okay,poor Ciara,poor CJ,poor Channel.
Me:of course I care about you guys don't say that
Cici:I wish I was born to more mature parents, do you
know why your daughter is sad?
Cj:because she knows you and dad are going to break
up again
We both turned around and looked at him,his face
was red.
Me:your dad and I are not back together I am sorry if
we gave you the wrong impression
CJ:what were you doing in his room?
Me:and that's none of your business, go call your

Me:Ciara
Cici:what?
Me:I might not be the best but I am still your
mother,seat down I want to talk to you

Channel and CJ sat down,Cici banged the door on her
way out.Shem my kids were really hurt,I hate to
admit it but Click was right.
Me:Nel?
Channel:are you and daddy getting back together?
Me:no
Channel:why?
Me:we agreed to be just friends,he will find someone

Good morning

Episode 139
At Botshelo's
He slowly opened the door without making
noise.Donah was sleeping in his court and Lone on
the bed,he took of his shoes and put the phone on
charge.
Botshelo: (shaking Lone) babe
Lone:(sleepy)mmmh
She woke up stretching her arms, Botshelo hugged
her and kissed her forehead.
Lone:o bone SMS
Botshelo: yeah,can't believe we are having a baby,I
hope its a girl,I love you
Lone:(smiling)I love you too,your food is in the oven
Botshelo:(took off his shirt) I don't have the appetite
Lone:haven't you spoken to Phatsimo?
Botshelo: I am afraid of knowing what made Ame so
terrified when I said Lerato was our baby
Lone:le nna I keep thinking about it
He got under the sheet and faced the other direction.
Next morning at my house
I prepared myself oats and sat down lazinly on the
sofa looking into the open space.The door opened
and Pearl rushed in holding her barbie doll.
Pearl:Auntie
Me:hey you,looking pretty
Ame:(walked in)I did it myself
Me:you should teach me ke nne ke dira Channel
Ame:(sat down)how are they?
Me:good,they grow up so fast mma,she likes hitting
me gore,o bua ka diata
Ame:(laughing) ao
Me:mmh and was balabala,she speaks her mind and
o rata go ngala
We both laughed
Me:kante wa re the doctor or pastor whatever he is
said?
Ame:he said gore Lerato is alive
Me:Lerato ke mang?
Ame:(swallowed hard)Botshelo a re she is your
daughter
My throat dried and my whole body became cold.
Me:what?
Ame:I think you should go see the doctor,why would
he lie about something like this?
Me:(shaking)oh my God
Ame:and if this man is telling the truth you surely
won't like to hear what he said about Calvin
Me:please I don't want to talk about Calvin now,tell
me what he said about the baby being alive
Ame:he just said that Lerato is alive and you have to
find her before is too late
I stood up and paced around the house
Me:let's go to him
Ame:(looking at the time)he sees people at 1 pm
Me:come we will wait akere,let me change
Ame:wait...are you sure you want to know the truth
Me:(crying)if he is right my child is out there God
knows if she goes to bed hungry or sleep on a cold
floor,I don't believe in all his vood oom but I have to
know what he means by my child is alive
I changed into a long blue dress and wrapped my
head with a black scarf.
Ame drove as I shakily dialed Botshelo
Botshelo:hello
Me:where are you?
Botshelo:Work
Me:Ame is taking me to Moruti wa Eloyi,gatwe a re
Lerato is still alive
Botshelo:what?
He dropped his phone

Me:hello
Botshelo:....
I hung up and sent his directions to the place.We
found only two people waiting.
We sat for over three hours then the doctor started
helping, the que was so long, I nervously stood up
Ame:(whispering)were are you going?
Me:no where
Ame:seat down there is only one person before us
Me:I am afraid
Ame:you are afraid?
Me:mmmh,what if he is right?
Ame:look around you, everyone here came because
they know how powerful he is
Me:wa re me a reng ka Calvin?
Ame:you don't want to know believe me
Our turn came,we took off our shoes and went inside
the dark room.
Doctor: Ame wait outside
Ame:yes
She squeezed my hand and went outside
Doc:Finally you came,(washed my hands with cold
water)put your hands in that bowl
I put the hands and he poured a red liquid inside and
asked me to take my hands out.
Doc:Do you want to know the whole truth about the
man you love?
Me:(heart beating fast)yes..no..I know he has
probably killed people before,he is a thug I think
that's all I should know,if I get to know more I don't
think I will love him the same.
Doctor: if you say so but know that as long as you
don't know the whole truth you will never have
peace of mind
Me:right now I want to know about my daughter
Doctor:put one hand back in the bowl and look into
that mirror,look attentively
I looked into the mirror until my eyes hurt,I started
feeling dizzy,I saw a little girl running around wearing
shorts and a pink vest, I think it was Pearl but she
was a bit older.Then I saw my room back home,I was
sleeping on the mattress crying.The little girl
appeared again coming towards me,she was so
pretty and looked like my late mother.
Little girl:Mama
I closed my eyes and took out my hand from the
bowl.
Doctor:that's your daughter
Me:(crying)but but we burried her,how come?
Doctor:you buried someone's child
Me:I don't believe this
Doc:They call her Warona now,she lives at Mopipi at
the Pilane family.If you want her and what really
happened to go Mopipi before its too late
Me:what do you mean before its too late?
Doctor: go before dawn tomorrow
I struggled to stand up,his assistant helped me walk
out,okay this felt unrealistic i mean how.
Ame drop us to Botshelo's.We sat outside while I told
him everything.
Botshelo:so you are telling me you saw her?
Me:yes,I am sure its her she looked like pearl when
she came closer she looked like my mother,I think we
should go,(crying)he said before its late.
Botshelo: okay we will leave tonight

Episode 140
We drove in silent until Makalamabedi.
Me:what if its her?
Botshelo:then whoever made us go through crying
for someone else's child will pay..
Me:all of this doesn't make sense but I want closure,
that chapter was closed but now I feel like crying at
the thought that my baby is out there, what if she
wants nothing to do with us
Botshelo:(smiling) come on she is a baby, how old 5
years?
Me:(smiling)no she will be 5 in June
Botshelo: Warona!!
Me:(laughing)mxm its a nice name,and if its really her
I saw she is cute,for the first time one of my kids will
look like me
Botshelo:I don't know how we are going to handle
two kids Donah a lapisa jaana.
Me:you will take Donah and I will stay with her
**we both laughed**
Botshelo: I guess she will have to go to school akere
she is old enough
Me:yes and don't forget gore nna am unemployed
Botshelo:paying two school fees is going to kill me
Me:if you don't ha e money to send her to a private
school she can still go to Letsholathebe
Botshelo:no..my kids will also go to private schools I
can afford it
Me:(smiling) War on a
Botshelo: its nice akere
Me:very,I love it
I fell asleep and woke up when we reached Mopipi,it
was already midnight.
We booked into a guest house and slept just a few
hours.
Before 8 we went around the village asking for the
Pilane family.One lady who was going to the same
place showed us the yard, it had three small
traditional huts and a segotlwana.
We parked outside and greeted the old woman who
was seating outside.
Me:dumelang
Granny:(looking closer to me)dumela mma
Botshelo: dumelang
Granny:dumela ngwanaka(shouting)Pona!! Bring the
bench
A little girl brought the bench and we sat down.
Granny:(to me)who are you?
Me:my name is Phatsimo,we are from maun
Pona:(shouting from the house)Mme Wawa ga a yo
My heart skipped,I looked at Botshelo
Me:(teary)I hope we are not late
Granny:(shouting)tsamaya o ye go mo thola ko
bareng
Me:bara?
Granny: she goes there every morning on weekends..
Me:(crying)why?
Granny:she picks up bottles so we can sell and buy
seshabo
Botshelo:how far is the bar?
Granny:(pointing) this side just a few meters from
here
We both stood up
Granny:la re le bo mang?
Me:we are her biological parents
Granny:(held her mouth) mmeee wee sale ke di buile
gore ngwana yo ga se wa rona akere..Mme wee re
elang teronkong
The gate opened,she walked in holding a plastic with
bottles inside,she bent her knees greeting us.
Wawa:dumelang
I looked at her dirty clothes...

140.5
I felt my heart break into pieces,her feet were dusty
and her head was dry with patches,she was wearing
and old dress.
She put the plastic down,she smiled at us
Botshelo:hey nnana
Wawa:ke nna Warona
We both tearfully smiled at each other,I wanted to
pick her up and hug her but I didn't want to scare her.
Botshelo:how much are those bottles
She looked at her fingers and smiled.
Wawa:a le 10 ke cabbage,a le 20 ke nama
Okay that was it, growing up poor does make people
clever,I mean she was bearly 5.
Botshelo:(took out his wallet)how much do you have
with you?
Wawa:7 I guess people don't have money to buy
alcohol now,last week I picked up 60 and we bought
meat and tomato sauce and I gave granny to buy me
sandals.
I fell down on my knees crying, there are just some
things that you can't digest.She looked
happy,Botshelo gave her 50 pula and she gave it to
the old woman who was silently crying in her scarf.
Wawa:Mme Malome ga ntsietsa akere
Granny:no,say thank you
Wawa:thank you
She gave Botshelo the bottles and ran to the house.
Granny:(crying)please seat down
Me:(crying)where is her so called mother?
Granny:please don't report me,I long suspected
something about Warona but I swear if I knew you I
would have brought her to you.
Botshelo:le rona we just found out about her
Granny:please take her,I will die peacefully
Me:please tell us where her mother is we need
answers,because we cried for her dead baby while
she took ours
Granny: I don't know where she is,she dumped her
here a le a week old and never came back,as you can
see she is the only dark one here,she is different
from all the kids,even when I held her for the first
time I doubted she was ours.
Me:(angry)we just need answers please,our daughter
has been struggling so much re le teng,why would
she steal our baby if she knew she wouldn't take care
of her
Granny:tota le nna I know nothing about what
happened,all I know is my daughter came here with
this baby carrying lots of money...She gave me 100
pula then in the evening she dissapeared until
today.She told me to take care of her because she
was her meal ticket.(shouting)Wawa!!! Wawa!!
She came running and knelt before her grandmother.
Wawa:maa!!
Granny:go greet your mother
Wawa:(looked at us confused)who?
Granny:your mother?
Me:hi
Wawa:are you my mother?
Me:(knodding)mmmh
Wawa:are you taking me to Gaborone?
Me:do you want to go with us?
Wawa:no
Me:(sad)why?
Wawa:because no one will look after granny
Botshelo:(smiling)so mature

Episode 141
Me:we will buy granny lots of food and meat
Wawa:(smiling)where is the money?
Botshelo: its in the car
Wawa:are you my father?
Botshelo:yes
Wawa:(crying) will you buy me shoes and plait my
hair like Tumi's?
Me:yes and yours will look much prettier
Wawa:will I come visit granny?
Me:(crying)mmh
Botshelo: and you can go to school
Wawa:iyoo teacher will beat me if I come late
We both smiled at each other
Me:ga ke na ngwana yo sa tshabeng sekwele
Botshelo:okay then I will drop you at school everyday
so that you won't be late
Wawa:(looking at her granny)mama can I go?
Granny:go pack your clothes
She ran back to the house
Granny:bo ngwanaka my daughter have wronged
you, I have no doubt in my bones that she is yours
because she looks exactly like her mother.Please I am
giving her to you quietly because I dont want people
knowing what just happened,we will be shamed by
the community.
Me:thank you, I didn't expect it to be this easy
Botshelo:(took out 2 two hundred pula notes)you will
buy food and seshabo,thank you for the hospitality
we will take care of her and she will come visit on
holidays
Granny:thank you my son,God bless you both
Wawa came back with a plastic with her clothes
in,she had changed into a short dress and wore
boots.
We stood up and said goodbye,it felt like a
dream,Botshelo picked her up,we hugged her as she
giggled.
We got in the car and she sat at the back
Wawa:will you buy me sandals?
Me:(smiling)yes
Wawa:and ice cream
Me:everything you want
Wawa:yes yes..are we going to Gaborone?
Me:no we are going to maun
Wawa:is it far?
Botshelo:no
We checked out at the guest house and bought
snacks on our way.Wawa fell asleep before we even
got out of Mopipi.
Me:if this is a dream its a long one
Botshelo:(held my hand)its not, our daughter is here
all thanks to Ame
Me:yeah,I didn't believe that prophet but after this I
wonder how much he knows about Calvin and what
he meant by if I don't know the truth I will never have
peace.
Botshelo:maybe you should go back to him and find
out
Me:I don't think I am ready to find out yet,some day
right now I want to focus on knowing my child.
Botshelo: I wish..never mind
Me:what tell me
Botshelo:I wish we were a family so we can enjoy
raising our kids together
Me:oh..yeah me too
Botshelo:maybe God is saying something
Me:haha what?
Botshelo:I don't know but you know things happen
for a reason right
Me:yeah..look at her,I hate those shoes
Botshelo:we will buy her new clothes when we get at
maun

141.5
We arrived at maun just in time before the shops
closed, we bought a few clothes at Ackerman's and
some at Pep.
Wawa:Phatsimo you said you will buy me ice cream
Me:let's go and bath then we will come buy
everything you want
Wawa:(exited) everything?
Botshelo:yes
She hung on Botshelo as we went back to the car,it
felt so unreal like 24 hours ago I didn't know my
daughter was alive now here she was,talkative as Cici
and Channel but more pretty and mature.
Wawa:Papa you said you will take me to school right
Botshelo:(smiling)she just called me papa
Me:yeah,she did
Botshelo:yeah I will take you to school princess
Wawa:will you buy me a bag le mopako?
Me:yes
Wawa:(exited)I will learn how to count and read
We got in the car,she wanted to seat on Botshelo's
lap so I ended up driving.
I bathed her and she changed into barbie top and
leggings,she put on a pink ribbon and sandals.
She ran to the bathroom as I followed her
Wawa:how do I look?
Botshelo:(emotional)real
Me:hahaha real indeed
Wawa:I don't look beautiful?
Me:of course you do.
We drove to the mall and bought everything she
wanted and she literally wanted everything. She
helped me put the food in the cupboard and fridge
while Botshelo made us something to eat.
Me:did you call Lone and tell her we are back?
Botshelo:I will tell her tomorrow, today let's just
enjoy this
Me:yeah I was thinking the same,it kills me that she
calls you dad while I am Phatsimo
Botshelo: haha jealous?
Me:wouldn't you be?
Wawa:you don't have TV?
Me:at the moment yes,maybe it will be here
tomorrow but I have a laptop and it has movies.
Wawa:can we watch?
Me:sure,Life bring us the food we will be in the
bedroom.
After a few minutes he came in with a big plate with
sandwiches and drinks.
We watched the movies until 2 am,Wawa fell asleep.
Me:you can use the other room if you want to
Botshelo:no I am fine here,I want her to be the first
thing I see when I wake up
Me:okay
I put Warona between us,Botshelo held my hand.
Me:she makes me want to be a better person
Botshelo:I never want to sleep without seeing her
Me:me too,I want her to stay with me
Botshelo:yeah you have enough space here
Me:I love you
Botshelo: I love you too for giving me so much joy
Me:(looking at Warona)she looks like Pearl
Botshelo:ditsebe tsone tsa ga daddy
Me:haha o ntshenyeditse baba with this ugly ears
Botshelo: she has been through a lot ngwanake
bathing at such a young age.Seing her earlier broke
my heart a ta ka mabotele
Me:(teary)me too

Episode 142
I woke up to Wawa making noice with Botshelo in the
kitchen.I tiptoed and found her sitting on the kitchen
counter,Botshelo was tickling her.
Me:(smiling)its not a dream
Wawa:(looking at Botshelo)hello mama
Me:awww she called me mama
Wawa:Dad said if I call you Phatsimo the teacher at
school is going to beat me
Me:haha he is right, you should call me mum
Wawa:where is your friend?
Me:which friend?
Wawa:who always came to Granny and gave her
money, he said he was your friend
Me:(confused and looked at Botshelo)what's his
name?
Wawa:I don't know
Me:will you tell me when you remember?
Wawa:mmh
Botshelo:what did I say about mmh?
Wawa:(covered her mouth)sorry
Botshelo:good girl,now let me go bath you so that we
go see your little brother
Wawa:does he bite too?
We both laughed
Me:no he doesn't
After bathing her she stood in front of the mirror
trying on clothes.
Me:I have a weird feeling
Botshelo:about what?
Me:its probably nothing,should I go with you?
Botshelo: sure
Me:I have never been this happy waitse rra.
She sat at the front seat and I sat at the back,she was
singing along to ATI
I laughed so hard, kids sing whatever comes to their
mind.
Botshelo picked her up walking to the house, I
remained in the car for a few minutes,I dialed Cal
Cal:hey,I called and called yesterday with no luck
Me:I was buisy with something
Cal:something important than me
Me:yes
Cal:I am jealous, what is it?
Me:you should ask who?
Cal:huh?
Me:I found my daughter, the one I thought was dead
Cal:what?where how?
Me:some prophet located her
Cal:are you sure is your daughter?what did her
grandmother tell you?
Me:yeah I am sure she is mine she looks just like me,I
can feel it she is mine
Cal:ohh,look I will get back to you
Me:wait.. You know I love you right
Me:mmmh
Me:I need you to be honest with me before I go back
to the prophet
Cal:since when do you believe in those things
Me:since he told me my baby was alive and I actually
found her,please tell me you were not behind this
Cal:what?
Me:(crying) tell me you didn't swap my child with
some girl and gave her money to look after her,tell
me you didn't make me cry so much for a baby that's
not mine.
Cal:I I told you to always believe your instincts about
me not what people say
Me:no Calvin this is all me,I can't shake off this
feeling. Do you know that that woman left my baby
to suffer,do you know that you have robbed my child
5 years of her life?
Cal:we will talk in a few minutes

142.5
Cal:can I come there so we can discuss this face to
face?
Me:discuss what?can't you tell me whatever it is
now?
Cal:I found out your daughter was alive a year back,
that time I drove with the twins to Maun I meet this
little girl who looked like you in Mopipi,she was with
an old woman,I asked about her mother and they
said her mum was in gabs,I brushed the idea of her
being your daughter off so I would go visit her once
in a while and bring them money and food,eventually
the old woman told me what her daughter did, that's
when I became sure she was yours,I took her blood
sample to test with the twins's I am still waiting for
the results
Me:(crying)did you kill Martin?
Cal:no
Me:did you have something to do with his death?
Cal...yes
Me:thank you for your honesty
I hung up crying out loud,my whole body was
shaking,I guess I was the most stupid person on
earth,I slept with my fiancé's murderer a man who
kept me from my daughter all this years..
Lone came to the car,she found me crying I couldn't
even stand.
Lone:are you okay?
Me:can you please ask Botshelo to drive me home?
Lone:okay
He came with the kids,I wiped my tears with my hand
as they ran inside the car.
Donah:mummy
Warona:Phatsimo look what dad gave me,ene he has
a tv
Me:(smiled)okay drop me home then you can come
watch TV with dad akere
Wawa:(exited) yes
Botshelo:(looked at me)what's wrong?
Me:nothing much just this migraines
He looked at me and shook his head,we drove home
in silence,only Wawa and Donah were talking.
He dropped me at the gate and I said bye to the kids.
Me:I will come take you tomorrow okay
Wawa:dad said we are going to school tomorrow
Me:(to Botshelo)will you manage?
Botshelo:yes,just go lay down and drink pain killers.
Me:come take some of her clothes
He followed me to the house,I packed a few clothes
and shoes.
Botshelo:(hugged me from behind)you know you can
talk to me right
I turned around and looked into his eyes.
Me:you are my greatest mistake,I regret everything
bad I ever did to you,seeing Warona with you makes
me happy.I want you to always be happy because
you are the greatest in the whole world.
Botshelo: thanks,if I could turn back the time I would
to
I baby kissed him on the lips and rested my head on
his chest.
At Botshelo's
Lone:(on the phone)tsalame you won't believe what I

patches on her head will dissapear.
Botshelo:okay
Me:and make sure she takes a fruit before

Me:haha sorry,now go I want to rest
Botshelo:I love you

He kissed my forehead and left.
I locked the door and laid down,minutes later I
switched off my phone.
At Cal's
Cal:guys I will be back tomorrow okay, be good to

Channel:where are you going?
Cal:its work related
Mrs:guys let's go prepare something to eat

Mrs:are you sure you should be driving such distance
in this weather?
Cal:the planes have been canceled due to the storm
but I have to be in maun as in yesterday
Mrs:Gob bless you my son, drive safely
Cal:bye
He stayed in his car for a few minutes before he
reversed out of the yard.
He buckled up and joined the mahalapye road,he
played country music as he kept thinking how he was
going to make Phatsimo explain everything, he tried
her number and left a voice message.There were no
cars along the road.It was raining heavily so he went
on 60.Along the way before Dibete he stopped for a
few minutes.The rain was too much.
Minutes later he hit the accelerators, he didn't see
the car coming in front of him,he tried to dodge it,the
other driver hit his windscreenand his car rolled
three times out of he road and hit a brunch.His head
hit the airbag,he smelt petrol and saw flames inside
the car.He tried to take off the seat belt but his other
arm was broken.
Cal:shit
He reached for his gun under the seat

He shot the window and rain water got in,with one
working hand he tried to take off the seat belt but it
was stuck and the fire was increasing.The driver of
the other car finally regained consciousness and
looked around, he saw a car from a distance and
flames covering it, he dragged his injured leg to the
car calling 911.
The next morning at Botshelo's
Wawa pulled Lone's toes thinking they were
Botshelo's,she kicked her,Wawa continued pulling
them and she kicked her harder, she started crying
and woke up Both Botshelo and Lone.
Botshelo:(sleepy)hey what's wrong
Wawa:you kicked me
Botshelo:(confused) sorry baby where did I kick you?
Wawa:(touching her forehead) here
He got off bed and picked her up blowing soft air on
her forehead,she laughed a little.
Lone:I felt something touching my toes am sorry I
kicked you Nana
Wawa:(clung on to her dad)..
Lone:babe it was a mistake
Botshelo: go shapo but Donah always pulls your toes
why kick this time around?
Lone:akere me ke bona Donah still sleeping I forgot
we had a visitor
Botshelo: it breaks my heart seeing you cry
nana,what did you want?
Wawa:I want to go to school
Botshelo: (looked at the time)haha okay let me switch

Wawa:are you going to buy me uniform?
Botshelo:yes after I drop you at school
Wawa:with your car?
He felt her wet panty and looked in her eyes
Botshelo:baby did you wiwi on your blankets?
Wawa:(shameful) mmh it was dark and I didn't see
the bucket
Botshelo:should we keep the lights on?
Wawa:mmh I am afraid of the dark
Botshelo:okay when you feel like wiwi you wake me
up and I take you to the toilet okay
Wawa:okay
Later that afternoon
I switched on my phone to check on the kids,a
government number called.
Me:hello
Voice:Is this Phatsimo
Me:depends on who is asking
Voice:you are talking to Doctor Patel from Sekgoma
memorial hospital
Me:(heart beating fast) yes
Doctor:your husband has been admitted here he is in
a critical condition, Mr Calvin
Me:I don't have a husband bye..
Doctor: Mam please
Me:when it comes to that man please don't ever call
me,his mother's number is 7499#### please call her.
Doctor:thank you
Mxm he was obviously faking or staged the whole
thing,when it comes to Calvin never say never.His
mother called after a few minutes
Me:hello
Mrs:(crying)he he left here coming to you..he..he..oh
my son..we are leaving Gaborone now we are going
to serowe..he was in a car accident
Me:I know the doctor called me first
Mrs:okay what time are you coming?
Me:where?

Episode 144
Mrs:aren't you coming down here,he needs you now
more than ever
Me:I am sorry I just found out your son hid my
daughter from me for five years,he let me cry and
bury a child thd was not mine so I am sorry if I am
being a little insensitive but I don't care what
happens to him,if he dies please let me know ke too
tsaa my kids.
I hung up and threw the phone on the bed,it was no
coincidence gore the day I cut all ties with him he has
an accident and becomes bed ridden. Agg he can go
meet his father Satan for all I care.
Someone knocked softly on the door,I looked
through the window and saw Botshelo's car.
Me:(opened the door fixing my gown)hey
Botshelo: I bought ma fresh
Me:please I am trying to look as young as I can,can't
let 5 kids show on my face so keep your food,I had a
smoothie
Botshelo:(got in)seriously you are turning down fresh
chips
Me:I am afraid I am
Botshelo:(placed the food on the table)but you look
nice,someone who doesn't know your kids would
think you don't have any
Me:(smiling) ao?

A few days later
I parked the car under the tree,the twins ran to the
house while Cici remained behind
Me:aren't you coming?you hardly said one word to
me
Cici:I said hi
Me:what did I do now?
Cici:you told Dad about the Jayden incident
Me:not really, I thought he knew
Cici:you sold me out mum and I don't get what's so
important that we had to come here,I hope you not
pregnant or getting married
Me:I swear one day I am going to spend the night in
jail
I made pasta and chicken,the door opened as soon as
I finished cooking. Wawa and Donah ran
inside,Channel picked up Donah
Wawa:dumelang
Cici:why does she look like Pearl?
Me:(smiling)because she is your sister
Channel:(eyes wide open)you adopted her?
CJ:is she Pearl?
Cici:is she your sister?
Botshelo sat down as the endless questions
continued.
Wawa:I am not Pearl, my name is Warona.
Cici:who is your mother?
Wawa:Phatsimo
They all turned and looked at me
Me:she is my daughter
Cici:what?how many kids do you really have?
Channel:you adopted her?
Cici:no you stupid,can't you see she looks like mum
Channel:she is my little sister?
Me:yes
Channel:(exited)I have a little sister yes,mum why did
you cut her hair?
Cici:is there another we should know about?
Me:Her name is Warona,some people took her when
she was small we just found her last week.
Channel:yes,come seat on my lap Warona
Cici:wow,as if we weren't many already.I am glad
where I stay its just me and daddy
Me:well I am glad too
CJ:I know her
Me:(looked at Botshelo) you do?
CJ:I think so
I brushed off the conversation to avoid for Botshelo
to know Calvin was behind the whole thing,not
because I loved him or anything but because I didn't
want my kids to grow up hating each other because
of what one's dad did.But I decided eventually I will
tell Botshelo, I had to but not now.
The introduction went well with the small ones,we all
know how Cici.
After lunch she went to her room while the kids
played outside.
Me:about the other day
Botshelo:don't mention it
Me:yeah it was a mistake
Botshelo:yeah
Me:why do I have a feeling you are being cold
towards me?
Botshelo:I am sorry just that I have a lot on my mind
Me:what?
Botshelo:does Wawa ever cry for petty things?
Me:no,I have never heard her cry
Botshelo: I think Lone secretly beats her a bo a re o
llela botete
Me:she what?
Botshelo:its just a feeling I have never seen her beat
her or scold her but when she is with us she is always
crying,when I ask she says nothing.

them on the table and sat on his bed.
Nurse:(smiling)how are you today?

cake.
Channel:happy birthday daddy

They put the balloons on his bed and he sliced the
cake while they sang him a birthday song.
At Botshelo's
Lone slowly packed her clothes in her bag,Botshelo
sat on the bed going through his phone,she looked at
him as she slid his boxers under her clothes.
Lone:I am done
Botshelo: okay let's go
Lone:do you think you can ever forgive me?
Botshelo:if you told me the truth yes
Lone:well since you don't want to believe the truth I
guess we are done
He played with his keys going outside,Lone sent her
friend a text that they should meet.
Later that evening at the hospital
The nurse walked in Cal's room wearing a bandage
dress's and black heels,she looked a bit taller,her long
hair was neatly made into a bun.Cal stared at her
wide hips and small breasts,it was obvious she was
not wearing a bra,she handed him a small plastick
Cal:you look different
Nurse:my shift is over,I am going home,open the
plastic
He slowly opened it,there was a small gift box inside,
he opened it,it was a small chocolate.
Nurse:(smiling)happy birthday I realized you didn't
eat the cake earlier,everyone has to have something
sweet on their birthday and that's all I could afford
anyway
Cal:they don't pay well?

Cal:no wonder I am not getting well,you are a student

Kelly:do you want to go out for a walk in the garden?
Cal:dressed like that?
Kelly:(took off her shoes)yes
She helped her stand up,he put on his sweat pants
and they walked slowly in the garden talking about
general stuff
At my house
Warona put her head on my lap watching TV,Donah
was playing with his puzzle.
Someone knocked on the door and they ran to the
door,I followed them and opened.
Me:you literally live here now
Botshelo:my life is here (picked up Donah)big boy
He closed the door and walked in holding Wawa's
hand.
Me:how was your day?
Botshelo:nothing interesting, yours?

She hung up before I could say a thing,I hated myself
for a second for feeling sorry for a man who destroys
my happiness every chance he gets, I excused myself
and went into the bathroom. I washed my face and
sat on the toilet.
I dialed his number,it ran two times and went into
voicemail, I called again

shoulders,she rested her head on his chest and
looked up to him, she loosed up and french kissed
him,he kisses her back.

Episode 149
Two days later
At Botshelo's house
He crawled out of bed into the bathroom, he sat on
the toilet seat, quickly grabbed a bucket and vomited
in it, he checked his temperature with the back of his
hand. He was burning.He vomited so hard he felt like
his intestines were on the way.
At my house
I buckled up Donah and Warona came running
holding her school bag, she got in and buckled up.
Me:Rona where is your jacket?
Wawa:its dirty
Me:okay we will pass by at your dad and take the
black one
Wawa:but i am not cold mama
Me:for now yes(looked out at the clouds)its going to

I drove out of the yard to Botshelo's place. I knocked
twice with no reply. I dialed his number and his phone
ran inside, his car was outside which meant he was
home.
Me:(knocking)Botshelo..life wee i know you are inside
bula i want to take jacket ya ga Warona, i could hear
that he was inside.
I waited for a few minutes and he opened, he looked
pale and sick
Me:(panicked)whats wrong?
Botshelo:i dont feel well.. I have been vomiting since
yesterday
I checked his temperature,he was burning. I grabbed
a blanket and dipped it in cold water then wrapped it
around him and helped to the car.
At Lone's house
She drank the last drop of the black concussion the
witch doctor gave her. She ran to the toilet and
vomited in.She was feeling dizzy,her mother knocked
at the door.
Mother:(worried)Lone are you okay?

Lone by the stretcher and put her at the back of the

the van too.
Neighbour:eish i think its an abortion gone wrong
Friend:me too
Neighbor:ee o bakile i hope she dies, my daughter

read his facial expressions but nothing.
Me:hello

Me:something like that,how is he?
Doc:his fever was sky high but apart from that there
is nothing wrong with him,we managed to get it
down a little but he will have to stay a few days here
until his temperature is back to normal
Me:but is he okay like i dont understand what could
have caused the temperature rise
Doc:we did some blood tests we will get back to you
with the results,i saw his medical record maybe its
Malaria again
Me:(teary)i will go get him toiletry,thanks
He opened the door for me as i walked out, the
paramedics pushed in someone who looked like
Lone, the person was on conscious.One of the
paramedics was holding a bottle with red liquid
inside.An old woman followed them holding her
shoes.
At Calvin's
Kelly laid on the bed naked, her phone ran and she
put in on silent, Calvin walked in holding a tray with a
rose and breakfast.

looked at the results, he pushed them back and
looked at the doctor
Doc:do you know what this is?
Doctor:do you think he tried to kill himself?
Doc:yes otherwise why would he drink it?
Doctor:he should have shot himself or hung himself if
he wanted to die,why choose a painful slow death,if
we dont operate on him he wont see the next day
Doc:his temperature is up again, we cant operate on
him now
Doctor:(stood up)lets take our chances because if we

Botshelo:and Calvin?
Me:he is a closed chapter,he did the unthinkable to
me,he took away my happiness,you know he was in a
car accident months back,and as he claims he lost his
memory but i dont buy it,he is faking the whole
thing,part if me feels bad for him but when i think
about all the bad things he did to me i wish he died

Episode 155
Two days later at my house.
Cici helped me hang the clothes on the line when
Botshelo's car parked outside,the kids ran to him, he
picked up Channel them everyone of them.

Bofshelo:i was thinking i can take you out,just the

Marv:thanks we will skype tommorow
Me:okay bye
Tess:love you
Me:love you too
I smiled and headed to the shower,i took a long warn
shower,applied a little make up and stood infront of
the mirror looking at my body,i had lost a few kg's.
I think hearing Tess and Marv that happy wanted me
to to be happy too, we had both lost someone we
loved but they managed to move on,they sounded
happy so why shouldn't i be?i slowly took off the ring
and placed it on the table.
I wore a sexy panty and bra then a short floral
summer dress wigh pumps, i looked younger and
sexier.
Ame got in eating a muffin
Me:hey
Ame:ulala whats the occasion?
Me:Botshelo and i arw going for a drive

Cici:have a fruit before they go to bed,yeah yeah

Me:haha okay bye guys
They were glued on the tv to realize i was leaving.
Botshelo was leaning on his car typing on his phone.
Me:hey so where are we going?
Botshelo:(opened the car door)i was thinking we can
have pizza then go on a drive outside maun
Me:(got in)i hope your car ga e kake ya swela ka rona
mo tseleng
Botshelo:haha seriously you will never make me
forget that day
Me:haha kana i was so scared ke utwa go lela ditau le

Botshelo:(reversed out of the yard)haha nnyaa mma
my car is fine
Me:how far out of maun?
Botshelo:Shorobe is fine
Me:yeah..um did you bring the condoms?
He looked at me like he expected me to say i was
joking,i kept a serious face until he answered me
Botshelo:yes
Me:jaanong why did you look surprised?
Botshelo:(smiled looking into the road)i didnt expect
that
Me:then why did you buy the condoms?
Botshelo:i mean the question
Me:but thats what you had in mind when you bought
them right
Botshelo:(looked at me through the mirror)haha why
are you questioning me?you also had the same thing
in mind when you wore that dress
Me:haha well..yes..maybe..hey this dress is just okay
so are we going to your house?
Botshelo:nope
We had pizza and bought a few beers at a local bar
then drove slowly out of maun,i was drinking and he
was having little sips.It felt great to be out and
about,the fresh air and no kids reporting on each
other every second.
We stopped under a mowana tree,there were
benches and tables,i sat on the table as he got
between my legs and kissed me.I dont know about
you but alcohol tinded breath turns the fuck on me
no matter how drunk i am.
He squezed my but a little as he passionately kissed
me.I wrapped my legs around him,we kissed for a
few minutes then i unzipped his jean and took out his
dick,it was fully erect poking on my stomach,i
breathed heavily remembering how good it was.I
slowly got down and put it all in my mouth looking
straight in his eyes.He closed them a little and
grabbed my head,i squezed his balls a little while i
circled my tongue on his dick head.
He opened his eyes and found me looking straight
into his.

Episode 156
He helped me stand up,i sat on the table and he
stretched my legs apart,his moved my g-string to the
side and his middle finger touched the entrance on
my vagina,i was dripping wet,his hands moved to my
stomach.
He took out a condom and gave it to me,i put it in his
hard thing as he kissed my neck.I directed the thing
in me,i moaned as he slowly stroked me slowly.I
hugged him tightly as he went a little faster,he made
me regret why i stayed a full 7 months without sex.
He picked me up by my butt and kept me in suspence
while he drilled me,he slowly moved to the car and
pinned me against it.I felt my body tighten and
become ticklish.He went a little to fast then i lost
control of my body, i let go of his shoulders,he held
me tighter then leaned over kissing me,we remained
like that breathing heavily,he took it out slowly
looking into my eyes.
Botshelo:that was...amazing
Me:(smiling)yeah ebile i have sobered up
He wiped himself and me then pulled my dress
down.We sat in the car silently drinking our beers.
At Calvin's house
He switched off the lights and laid in the dark trying
hard to remember more about Phatsimo.He logged
into facebook and searched her in her friends list,
there she was, he went through her photos.There
were no recent ones but one photo caught his
attention.It was a photo of them almost 6 years
back,she was leaning on his shoulder with her tongue
out.She looked young and happy.He smiled and
downloaded a few of them.
On our way back to Maun
Me:(drunk)you know iv always had bad taste in men
Botshelo:i am so offended
Me:haha you and Martin are the only guys who
treated me well but i treated you like dirt,you know i
uses to think it was because i had kids with him but
no iflt was because of his penis..i loved it more than i
loved him
Botshelo:haha i am going to remind you this
tomorrow
Me:i am not drunk,but let me tell you something,okay
o ska wa ipoka but o monate le wena,a lot more than
Calvin and Lefika,agg that one ene i dont remember
him well akere we were young i i didnt know
anything about sex
Botshelo:hahaha Tsitsi hle mma youare drunk
Me:i love it when you call me that, i love you Botshelo
now more than ever i know you think i am saying this
because i am drunk but no..i can even say it when i
am sober..but i am not good for you,i dont deserve
you,you deserve someone better who has never
treated you badly.You know...i..
Botshelo:are you crying
Me:no..i am fine just that when i think of all the
things i gave up
156.5
He parked at the gate and we remained silent for a
few seconds
Me:let me go in
Botshelo:i heard you
Me:what i said, it took me 5 beers to say it without
worrying that you might reject me
Botshelo:actually you rejected yourself before i could
say anything.Believe me iv tried to fight this feelings
because i know the moment Calvin comes in the
picture its over for us.Truth is i love you Tsitsi,there
was never a point in life when i stopped loving you
even when you hurt me to the core,i still loved you
when you chose him over me,i wanted to hate you
for sleeping with right after you had unprotected sex
with him,believe me i have tried hating you for taking
my son without telling me a word.But my feelings
couldn't change.The past couple of months with you
and our kids were the best,i realised you have grown
and also that you hate Calvin which in a weird way
makes me happy
We both laughed
Botshelo:(took my hand)i believe you have grown and
can trust you with my heart.
We starred into each others eyes without saying a
word,i was still digesting what he just said.He
changed the song that was playing and played Austin
Mahone's All i ever need
We smiled holding hands
Botshelo:our song
Me:(smiling)i still remember the first time i heard it re
tswa makalamabedi o ntheketse pizza o nkopella and
forcing me listen to the lyrics ..haha mxm i love you.It
took me many years to realize you the best thing to
ever happen to me.
Botshelo:i will send it to you ka app listen to it all
night.
Me:come sleep over
Botshelo:i dont want to see me and the twins it
might confuse them
Me:you are right(opened the door and stepped
out)call me before you sleep
Botshelo:(kissed my forehead)i will
Me:ga ke go direla phoso tell me so that i correct it
Botshelo:same
Me:(let go of his hand)i love you
He waited for me until i got inside,i leaned on the
door and smiled biting my nails
Cici:mum
Me:huh..oh you haven't gone to bed yet
Cici:why are you so happy?details details
Me:haha has Ame gone home?
Cici:she is sleeping in your room
Me:dont stay up till morning hle mma.goodnight

Me:haha but i am still mum
I got in the room and threw myself on the bed waking
up Ame.
Ame:(sleepy)what?
Me:(smiling)hle mma i love Botshelo,oh my God a bo
re ba tsaa ko sekgweng kwa,God he is amazing,he
picked me up like i was nothing and kept me in
suspense while he teard me up,i looked at him biting
his lower lip.. Ahhhh i am inlove and he says he loves
me too.

Episode 157
Me:and i pretended to be like really drunk then told

We all laughed
At Botshelo's house
He paced around the house with his hands on his
head.
One:i am telling you the truth
Botshelo:you just had to destroy every good memory
i had of Lone by telling me those lies, i knew Lone she
would have never done that.Please leave because i
have to be somewhere and Phatsimo has been calling

Episode 158
One:you and Phatsimo are back together?
Botshelo:no we are not its Christmas and she invited
me for lunch
One:okay anyway here is my number incase you get

He took the small piece of paper and put it in his back
pocket.They walked out of the yard
One:ke kopa lift hle rra
Botshelo:sure
She opened the door and got in,she dropped a little
something inside the car and closed the door.
He dropped her at the main road
At my house
I saw his car park at the gate while we were taking
photos.Donah ran to the gate followed bye Wawa.He
picked up Donah and held Wawa's hand
Me:(meet them halfway)you missed lunch
Botshelo:i will explain everything to you later
He kissed my cheek,Nicole ran towards us
Nicki:hey dad

Me:if Calvin hears his daughter calling you daddy he
will kill you
Botshelo:manxhaxa a gagwe
Me:(laughing)heela ijaa guys go take more photos
and tell Cici to change you into your swim wear
The whole family was taking photos,some where in
the pool.Botshelo followed me in the kitchen.He
rubbed his boner on my butt,i turned around and
kissed him.
Me:i came to get your food wena?
Botshelo:i came to get my food too
He picked me up and put me on the table,he locked
the door and got between my legs kissing me.
I unzipped his jean and took out his anaconda,i gave
him a little hand job.He closed his eyes his thumb
tickling my clit,i could literally feel my heartbeat from
my vagina.I remember that we were in the kitchen
and had no condom with us.He parted my legs and
rubbed the head of his dick on my wet paradise.
Me:(moaning)condom
Botshelo:shit babe i wont penetrate then
Me:stop
Botshelo:shit..
He inserted a little then it went all in.
Me:aaah..babe
Botshelo:shit babe i missed you
He went a little slower then faster,he took it out for a
sec and stared into my eyes.
Botshelo:i love you
Me:i love you too
He inserted it and went deeper i had to move back a
little.
He held me tighter.Someone knocked but we
pretended not to hear then.He withdrew and
splashed his cum on my skirt.
We remained like that without saying a word just
breathing heavily.We looked at the cum stain on my
skirt and laughed.
Botshelo:that was irresponsible of us
Me:very and we haven't tested
Botshelo:you tubes are still tied right
Me:haha yes
He helped me down and we went to my room.We
whipped ourselves and i changed into swim wear.
Botshelo:babe i forgot to tell you what One just told
me

Bae:haha ne a bua zero hela a re Lone went to a
traditional doctor a re wa go mpolaa but she ended
up dying
Me:now you see why i dont have friends,they can

We sat at the table outside as we talked about
nothing really just telling each other how much we
loved each other.
The kids ran to the gate screaming,i stood up to see
what the hell was happening.
My smile faded when i saw him,i sat down as
everyone stared at him.Botshelo held my hand
tighter.
He picked up Nicole and Channel,Warona was looking
at everything confused,he went to where the rest of
the family was sitting and bent his back greeting
everyone.
He put Nicole down and picked up Donah
Cici:(happy)this is a surprise daddg you came at the
right time we are talking photos.
Calvin:(fixed her hair)did you grow or you are fat
Cici:(clung on to him)daddy that's not funny
Cal:i am kidding
He sat on the chair and extended his hand to
Botshelo then looked at me
Cal:hi
Botshelo:(shook hands)hello
Cal:i was just passing by and i thought i should come
say hello
Cici:where are you going?
Cal:Kasane
Cici:cam we tag along i promise i will take care of the
twins..mum??
CJ:please mummy
I noticed Warona still standing far looking at
everyone,my heart beat fast because i knew
anything could happen at that moment,Wawa
recognizing Cal and Botshelo putting one and one
together.As much as i hated Calvin i didnt want
Botshelo finding out he was behind the Warona
story.
Channel:Wawa come meet my dad
She pulled her hand and Cal picked her up.
Cici:mum?
Me:huh?
Cici:can we go with daddy?
Me:(looking at him)i am sure he made plans without
you guys
Cici:dad?
Botshelo:(stood up)Babe i will see you later let me go

Me:okay
Bae:(to Cal)nice to finally meet you
Cal:thanks
He said goodbye to everyone and i walked him to his
car.
Bae:see you later?
Me:(lost in my mind)yes
Bae:are you okay?
Me:i didnt expect to see Calvin i guess seing him has a
big effect on me
Bae:realised that you guys have unresolved issues,
talk to him
Me:i will,drive safely
Botshelo:(baby kissed me)i will
I went back to the kids and sat in the chair facing
Calvin,that moment i hated myself for still having
feeling for the man.
Cal:hi
Me:hi..can we talk in private?
Cal:sure
He Followed me into the house,he sat down and
looked at me.
Cal:can i start?

Episode 159
Cal:from what i have realised the past two months is
that i have hurt you,o don't remember everything
about the person i used to be but i know i made
terrible decisions and destroyed lives yours
included.(knelt down)i want you to find it in your
heart to forgive me for everything,i mean
everything.From the pictures,what my family told me
and the little i remember i know you loved me
regardless,you took me back even when you had no
reason to (held my hand)i will never disturb you or
call you.I will leave you in peace but i just need to
hear one thing from you.I want to know if beyond
everything there is a little feeling left inside you..
I pulled my hands from him and stood up,his words
sounded genuine and i could see the change on his
face but that was Calvin,a man who died twice and
came back to life,i mean even Jesus had nothing on
the guy.
He stood up and folded his arms looking at me.I
swallowed hard and looked into his eyes.
Me:i am sorry that you went what you went
through,i would never wish it on my worst enemy
but i am glad it happened because i can see that you
are a changed man,i am not going to remind you of
the pain you caused me because it will delay your
heeling process.What i can tell you is i loved you,with
all my heart (swallowed a lump)you are the father of
my kids and Ciara adores you more than she does her
own father.Hate is a big word and so is love,i am with
someone now and to declare my undying feelings for
you would be disrespectful to him.
Cal:i hear you
Me:thank you..and you will collect the kids on your
way back i still want to spend time with them
Cal:thank God because i had only made reservations
for two and the lodge is fully booked
Me:haha yeah
Cal:i better go
Me:yes
Cal:bye the way you look much prettier in person
Me:thanks you...never mind
He said goodbye to everyone and left.I locked myself
in my room and sat down,i smiled and brushed the
thought off.I took my phone and dialed Bae,it ran
unanswered six times.
Somewhere in the bush
One took off her shoes and got in the hut,the witch
doctor instructed her to seat down.She sat and he
instructed her to spread her legs
One:i thought we were done with that stage
Doc:we are not finished until i say so
One:(swallowed a painful big lump)okay
Doc:if you dont want Botshelo the door is open,did
you do like i told you?
One:yes i threw the stick in his car
Doc:good now lets wait he will be running after you
One:(exited)seriously?
Doc:yes now come here..

159.5
I dropped of Potso's mum at her house then passes
by Botshelo's house.His car was not there and the
gate was locked.I tried calling him again and he didn't
answer.I went to his garage,there was no one there.
At home
I went straight into my room and locked the door,i
called him again and again until his phone no longer
went through.Ame opened the door and sat with me
on the floor.
Ame:are you okay?
Me:Botshelo is not answering his phone,i went to his
place and his garage he was not there
Ame:maybe wa renka
Me:no he said he was going to the garage maybe sein
Calvin pissed him off
Ame:talking about him what where you talking about
Me:he lost his memory blah blah he wants
forgiveness
Ame:ijoo o can imagine not remembering anything
about my past life
Me:was i being weird around Cal,what if Botshelo
picked up something and thinks i still want Cal
Ame:well you were being weird but in a good way
Me:(stood up)ijaa i am getting a headache just
thinking about all this,where are the kids?
Ame:watching tv
At Botshelo's house
He charged his phone and laid on the bed,he looked
up thinking about a lot.The door opened
Botshelo:(eyes closed)Babe
One:its One
He got up and looked at her
Botshelo:what are you doing here
One:i came to check on you
Botshelo:i am fine as you can see
One:can i have some water?
He came with a glass and gave her,she drank it and
handed him the glass.
One:thanks i was just passing by
Botshelo:are you okay you look pale
One:i am fine,bye
Botshelo shook his head smiling as she walked
out.He switched on his face then he started feeling
weird.
He opened the door and ran after One.
Botshelo:can i drop you off at home?
One:(smiling)thanks
He got his car keys and opened the door for her as
she smiled getting in,two girls passed by looking at
them smiling and laughing.
Girl:Sies One is already after Life but Lone hasn't
been dead for two months
Friend:maybe they are just friends
Girl:maybe
At home
I called his number again,his phone was on but he
didn't answer.I grabbed my car keys and went to his
house.
I sat by the stoop for over an hour then he came
back.
Me:hey
Botshelo:hey
Me:why haven't you been answering my calls?
Botshelo:(opened the door)did you die from me not
answering your calls
Me:haha mxm seriously why
He blocked the door before i got in
Me:what are you doing?
Botshelo:i think we should stop whatever is
happening between us
Me:(surprised)what?if this is about Calvin i swear..
He slammed the door in my face..

Me:wa re bay what?
One:if he doesn't have a finger on his finger then i can
call him bae too.
I slapped her so hard my hand hurt,her bag fell down
and she pulled my hair.
Me:(choked her)you bitch
One:bitch ke mmago
I kicked her and she fell down on the soil,i grabbed
the dustbin before i could empty it on her Botshelo
grabbed it and pulled me from her.
Botshelo:(slapped me)why are you beating her i am
the one who called her here
Me:(held my cheek and spat blood on the floor)so
when you were late ne o diilwe ke lone leswe le,wow
One:dont call me dirt

daughter looks better than you will ever
Botshelo:(picked one'bag and gave to her still holding
my hand)get inside
One:monna ga a pagollwe ha godimo ga sethare o
tsewa mo go ba bangwe
Me:nyanago
I kicked the bin and it her butt,Botshelo let go of me
and got in the house.I hit the door countless
times,the hot slap left me with a bleeding nose and
heavy headache.
I sat on the stoop listening to them laughing
inside.Around 12 they switched off the lights,i
banged on the door screaming his name crying.
I finally gave up and drove home slowly,the kids were
sleeping.I went into the bathroom and locked myself
crying,never in a million years did i think Botshelo
would ever do that do me.It hurt so much that he hit
me infront of One.
Ame:(knocked)Tsitsi
Me:(crying)huh
Ame:open the door
I struggled walking due to the dizziness.She noticed
my red eyes and swollen lips.
Ame:(angry)who did this to you?
Me:Botshelo
Ame:what?
Me:o jola le One
Ame:who is One?
Me:One hela One yo boatla,i was fighting One then he
slapped me and locked me out of the house
She put on her jean and wore a loose T-shirt.
Me:ba tlogele

She pulled me and grabbed the car keys,she drove to
Botshelo's house breathing heavily.
Ame:waitse gore you are too soft wena
Phatsimo,how do you let that loose dirty whore in
the house,ga wa mo clapa i will do it for you.
She parked at the gate and banged on the door, they
ignored us

She smashed the windscreen on Botshelo's car.The
alarm went on

Botshelo opened the door,One followed wearing a
towel
Ame:wow what a degrade Botshelo she was Lone's
friend for heaven sake
Botshelo:(dialed on his phone)i am not going to say
anything to you ke a bona this is what you came here
to do
I snatched the phone from him,Ame jumped on
One,she fell down and she started punching
her.Botshelo removed Ame ontop of One,he slapped
her and she fell down.
Me:(helped Ame up)lets just leave them alone Ame
lets go
Ame:i am not going anywhere until i teach this bitch a
lesson.
One:(dustin herself)wa nyela
Ame:(picked a brick and threw at them)go nyela lona
The brick hit Botshelo on the chest,we went inside
and came out with a baseball bat,Ame was already
on the floor beating the hell out off One
I was standing looking at everything like i was
stupid,my legs were jelly.
I managed to hold the bet before he hit Ame with
it,everything happened so fast,i remember lightly
hitting Botshelo with it,he fell down and i helped Ame
beat the life out of One,surprisimg thing is no
neighbors were watching.
One'nose started bleeding then we left her, to be
honest i am not a violent person it was my first fight
if not second.
Ame:(spat on One)you two deserve each other
She kicked Botshelo who was lying helplessness on
the ground.
One:i am going to report you
Ame:tsamaya i will finish you off seaka ke wena you
have messed with the wrong person,just because
Tsitsi is quiet you think you can take advantage of
her well no more.
We sat in the car for a few minutes then drove home.
Ame:One o jesitse Botshelo i am telling you
Me:those things don't work
Ame:heee you think like that o ta ipona
That night i could'nt sleep,i had weird dreams of me
locked up in a cage.
I woke up to Ciara shouting in my ear
Me:(opened my eyes)Cici monna
Cici:there are police outside
Me:what?
Cici:they are looking for you
I put on my gown and went outside.
Officer:Ms Phatsimo

Me:can you not do this infront of my kids please
Officer:If you can't afford a lawyer the state will
appoint you one
They dragged me to the car, my kids were crying and
running after the car.I looked down and silently
cried.Never in my life did i ever think something like
that would happen to me.
I looked back and they were still running after the
van.My heart broke into pieces,i burried my head
between my legs crying.

Botshelo,did i hit him hard on the head?
The thought made me wish i never went to his house
in tje first place,i kept seing his lifeless body on the
ground,he was not moving and Ame spat on him then
kicked him,had he been dead the whole time?
The door opened and the officer got in,he took off
my handcuffs and i stretched my arms sitting down.

Me:(opened the door)hey
Odirile:hey so i thought we should go over your case
Me:something new?

Me:but i would be telling the truth, the truth will set
me free
Odirile:do you know how many innocent people are
behind bars?
Me:no
Odirile:you dont want to know
Me:you want me to lie under oath?
Odirile:you have to because it looks like you did
intend to kill Botshelo.So your former lover whom
you have dumped Botshelo multiple times to go back
to pitches out of the blue,you dont know how to end
things with Botshelo so you plan to kill him,you claim
he was cheating and ended things between the two
of you instead of accepting it and going home,you
stay until night then...
Me:(covered my ears)i didnt plan all of this i didn't
even know Calvin would come here
Odirile:The prosecutor is going to say exactly what i
am telling you,i mean you did come home then went
back to his house..why? How sure are we that you

Me:yes but i am being honest with you here he went
inside the house and took it,i blocked him when he

job if found not guilty.
Odirile came everyday to prepare me for the
following week.
Monday morning at court
I walked in as everyone turned and looked at me.I
took my seat and buried my head in my hands.
Odirile:(held my hand)dont show them that you are
scared.
Me:(took a deep breath)mmmh
The judge walked in and we all stood up,i looked
behind me and Ame smiled at me,Potso's mum
waved.
They started with the whole court thing.
Prosecutor:This is the case of the state versus Miss
Phatsimo Fernandez on charges of attempted
murder.
I took a deep breath
Judge:Mrs Fernandez do you find yourself guilty?
Me:(looked around the court room)no your honour
People started mumbling and the judge ordered
them to keep quiet.
Prosecutor:i would like to call up my first witness to
the stand Miss One Smith who is the victim's
girlfriend.
One took the stand
Judge:do you swear to tell anything but the truth?

night
One:(looked at me)I came over to a sleep over at
Botshelo's place i found Phatsimo arguing with
Botshelo,when i tried to get in the house she pulled
me and started beating me and insulting
me.Botshelo locked her out of the house then we
went to bed.Around two we woke up to the sound of
a car alarm,we went outside and found Phatsimo and
her little sister smashing Botshelo's car windscreen
with bricks.Botshelo rushed in and got a bat trying to
scare them.Phatsimo got hold of it and hit him in the
head with it multiple times then they beat me till i
was unconsious,i dont know what happened after

Episode 165
One:i dont understand
Odirile:"was"is a term used to describe the past so i
want ti know if you and the victim had broken up or
not
One:no we are still together
Odirile:then why did you use the term "was"?
One:i guess i wasn't paying attention to what i was
saying
Odirile:(smiling)are you saying you haven't been
listening to yourself?
Prosecutor:(stood up)objection
Judge:sustained
Odirile:yes?
One:...
Odirile:i will take that as a yes so you haven't been
paying attention to everything you said.
One:it was just a slip of the tongue
Odirile:(looked at the judge)okay..so you say you have
known the victim for five years right
One:yes
Odirile:but my client says you all went to school
together
One:yes i mean we had started being friends five
years back
Odirile:but the prosecutor wasnt asking about
friendship he was asking how long you had known
the victim.So does that mean you have lied under
oath?
One:(attitude)i didn't think it was important
Odirile:okay...thank you no further questions your
honor
Judge:Thank you Miss Smith you may step down,
Court will be back in half an hour
She looked at me as she walked out.Odirile held my
hand smiling.
Me:are we winning?
Odirile:i will tell you after the doctor's report.
Me:she was lying i swear i only hit him once
Odirile:i know
30 minutes later
The doctor took the stand looking at me,he
introduced himself and took oath
Prosecutor:Tell us about your relationship with the
victim
Doc:he is my patient
Prosecutor:when did you first meet him?
Doc:about two months back when he was admitted
to my ward,he had inhaled a toxic battery powder
which made his fever rise up and his kidneys did not
work for a few days.
Prosecutor:tell us about his condition now
Doc:he has been in a coma for 16 days now and
under life support
Prosecutor:what is the real reason for him being in
that situation?
Doc:(took out MRI results and scan)he was hit with
something heavy on the head multiple times and he
has brain swelling thats what has caused his coma.
Prosecutor:(sat down)thank you
I whipped my tears with the back of my head.Odirile
stood up and looked at the MRI's
Odirile:you say he was hit multiple times in the head?
Doc:yes three times if not four
Odirile:(looked at me fixing his tie)where you on duty
when the patient was admitted?
Doc:yes. He was admitted around 7 in the morning
Odirile:thank you..um who came with him?
Doc:An old man and his wife
Odirile:thank you no further questions
He sat down..

Episode 165.5
Judge:Thank you Doctor you may step down
now.Court will continue tomorrow.
Odirile:I think there is more to this than we thought.
Me:(crying)Brain swelling will he live?
Odirile:(packed his bag)maybe
Me:maybe?
Odirile:even if he does he might loose his memory or
something.
We walked out and paparazi started taking
pictures.He places his blazer on my head to the car.
At home

whiskey in it.My phone ran
Me:hello

He stood up smiling..
Odirile:now it all makes sense why he was brought in
by passing strangers not her
Me:what?
Odirile:Oh God

Episode 166
The following day at court
Odirile:Your honor i am bringing to stand the man
who accompanied the victim to the hospital.
The old man walked in,he took oath and introduced
himself.
Odirile:Please tell us where you were coming from
when you found the victim.
Man:i was coming from the cattle post
Odirile:what time?
Man:i normally leave around 6 and arrive in maun ka
7
Odirile:what made you suspicious when you saw the
victim on the ground,it could have been some drunk
man too tired to get in the house
Man:that young man is a very respectful person he
always gives me lift and buys madila from me.I was
surprised to see him laying there,actually i went
there to give him a mouth full but only to find out he
was unconcious
Odirile:was there anyone around?
Man:no because i screamed for help and only
neighbors came to my rescue
Odirile:thank you.. Thats all
The prosecutor stood up and looked at the old man.
Prosecutor:Did you get in the house?
Man:no
Prosecutor:then how sure are you that there was no
one inside?
Man:i shouted for over 2 minutes asking for help and
if there was someone in tho house they would have
heard me.Those new yards are far apart but the
neighbor could hear me,wouldnt whoever was in the
house heard me?
Prosecutor:thats all thank you
Judge:thank you Mr Moalosi you may step down.
Odirile:The next person to the stand is the victim's
manager Mr Noko.
He walked in,took oath and introduced himself.
Odirile:how long have you been working for the
victim?
Him:its been 4 years now
Odirile:tell us what is it exactly that you do for the
victim
Him:I pay the workers,make sure the vehicles are in
right condition and collect money everyday then
deposit it.
Odirile:is that all?
Him:yes
Odirile:do you also work on holidays?
Him:no i don't,on holidays he collects the money and
deposit it himself.
Odirile:where were you on the 25 of december?
Him:i was at Motopi thats where i always spend my
festive holidays.
Odirile:no further questions thank you
The prosecutor stood up and looked at Mr Noko..
Prosecutor:have you ever stole from the victim?
Him:no i will never do that
Prosecutor:not even once?
Him:no Mr Botshelo gives us lunch money everyday
and loans without interest, when we have family
crisis he takes money from his own pocket and helps
why would i steal from such a kind person?
Prosecutor:and now? Do you still deposit the money
and keep receipts?
Him:yes
Procecutor:thank you no futher questions
He sat down frustrated..

Episode 166.5
Judge:Court continues in two hours
We all stood up as the judge left,the prosecutor
wrote something on a piece of paper then gave to his
partner.
Me:whats going on?
Odirile:we are winning
Me:really?explain everything to me
Odirile:you will figure everything out yourself,come
lets grabb something to eat
Me:i am not ready for all those people outside the
court house
Odirile:come on you cant hide forever
We used the back door and got in his car before
paparazzi saw us.
At the hospital
Botshelo's mum walked in with the kids,they sat in
the benches as he sprayed anointing water all over
the room praying,he rubbed his legs with the living oil
and prayed holding his hand.Her phone ran.
Her:hello
Voice:hello you are talking to Doctor Parsons in
Marina
Her:yes
Voice:we heard about your son and we would like to
sent someone to look at him
Her:shouldnt you be speaking to the doctors?
Voice:we would like your permission before talking
to his doctor
Her:its okay you can send the doctor,it wouldn't hurt
to look if he cant help him
Voice:thank you and please dont mention this to
anyone because we usually want payment but this
time we are doing for free
Her:thank you,if the doctor is fine with it then i am
good too.
Voice:thank you have a good day
She hung up and looked at Warona rubbing her
father's palms with the living oil.
Her:pray
Wawa:what do i say?
Her:ask God to heal him
Wawa:(closes her eyes)God please heal my dad if you
do i promise i will be a good girl and wont be angry at
mum.. Please God
At court
Judge:from all the statements and evidence this
makes this case difficult.It is the state verses Mrs
Fernandez but the prosecutor has not given much
evidence that shows that indeed she wanted to kill
the victim.I now give the defendent the opportunity
to give her side of the story you may now take the
stand.
Odirile:Your honor before my client takes the stand i
will once more like to question our eyes witness.
Judge:yes you may,Miss One Smith
She walked to the stand and took oath once
again.Odirile stood up and fixed his tie
Odirile:you say the defendent arrived what time?
One:around two
Odirile:you also say she and her little sister beat you
until you fell unconscious
One:yes
Odirile:and what time did you regain conscious?
One:i didnt look at the time?
Odirile:and where was Botshelo at that time?
One:he was laying on the ground
Odirile:and what did you do?
One:i tried to wake him up and realised he was not
waking up
Odirile:and then
Top of Form

Episode 167
One:and i tried calling the ambulance but my battery
was low
Odirile:continue
One:then i ran home to call my uncle because he had
a car
Odirile:how far is your home from the victim's house
One:two kilometers maybe
Odirile:such a long distance why didnt you wake up
the neighbors?
One:it was dark and i was afraid to wake them up
Odirile:so i guess you gained conscious around bo 4
and 5 right if not earlier
One:yes
Odirile:where you not scared i mean you grew up in
maun and you know how dangerous it is to walk
alone at that time
One:i needed to get to my uncle
Odirile:if it was the car you really wanted you could
have used his right i mean you do know how to drive
right??
One:(shaky voice)Phatsimo and her sister had broke
the windscreen
Odirile:but it could still take you to the hospital
because it was an emergency instead of you
traveling almost two kilometers to get your
uncle..now tell me what time did you get back to the
victim's house.
One:i dont know
Odirile:was the victim still there?
One:no
Odirile:do you realise that if you could have used the
victim's car or called the neighbors you could have
saved his life..
One:...
Odirile:can i tell you a short story?
One:..
Odirile:So you visited the victim,after my client hit
him once on the head and left you took the bat and
hit him more.But why?because the victim had more
than 10 thousand pula with him in the house,he
didnt deposit the money that the drivers gave him
that day,you stole his money and went to your house
to hide it
Prosecutor:objection
Judge:sustained
Odirile:and when you came back you didnt find him
right,you messed up the house and went to report
my client that he tried to kill the victim..
Everyone kept quiet listening to Odirile,i was even
surprised but everything he said made sense.
Odirile:you hit the victim on the head with a bat
right?
One:...
Odirile:you even stole his money...
One:..
Odirile:my honor we are persecuting the wrong
person,the real killer is on the stand..my client is
guilty for assault not attempted murder, she slightly
hit the victim on the head protection her sister,she
knew it would knock him down for a few seconds
thats why she and her sister flee the scene because
they knew he could wake up any minutes and beat
them,the witness here saw that an as an opportunity
to steal the money and blame everything in my
client.Her statement doesn't make sense from all
angles which means she has been lying under oath.
One whipped her tears and looked at me.

167.5
Judge:order in court..Lawyer Odirile do you realise
you are making some serious allegations against the
witness?
Odirile:yes your honour but i have all my facts
right.The time the incident happened and the time
the victim was admited to the hospital was a long
time.Who walks around Maun around 4 and 5 to go
look for a car 2 km away when she could have calles
the neighbors or used the victim's car? The victim's
manager did say that the victim was collecting tje
money on holidays,i checked with the bank and he
had not deposited the money in two days which
means he still had it,the witness used the assault to
her advantage,she tried to kill him so that she steals
his money.If you can give a search warrant now your
majesty i guarantee you will find the money.
One:i didnt try to kill him..(screaming)Phatsimo and
her sister did not me..he gave me that money
because he loved me,we can even ask him when he
wakes up.
Judge:quiet Miss Smith
One:since you all think i tried to kill him then its fine i
will go to jail for nothing.
Judge:Mrs Smith
One:yes i hit him on the head but Phatsimo caused
more damage because she hit him first,and when he
woke up he started saying her name,thats why i hit
him more.What does she have that i don't,i didnt
sacrifice everything for him to mumble her name
everytime.I only finished what Phatsimo started.
Odirile looked at me as i cried silently,i had never
been that happy,the police cuffed One,the was lots
of noice in court and the Judge ordered them to keep
quiet.
Judge:court will continue in two days,the court drops
charges of attempted murder againt Mrs
Fernandez.She will appear before court in two days
for her case of assault.
Everyone stood up and i hugged Odirile
Me:thank you so much
Odirile:you are welcome
Me:so do you think he will sentence me to jail
Odirile:3 months tops or community service
Me:i dont care,can i see Botshelo now?
Odirile:not yet
Me:when?
Odirile:until after the case
We walked out of the court room,people started
taking pictures and Odirile gave them and interview.
Reporter:How is the case going sir?
Odirile:we are winning
Reporter:please tell us in details
He ignored them and we got in the car,i buckled up
and looked outside.
Odirile:are you okay?
Me:the whole thing made realise one thing..
Odirile:what?
Me:i will tell you one day..can we grabb a bite?
Odirile:sure
Me:i want something spicy and some alcohol.
Odirile:celebrating too early i see
Me:haha if i had known you were this good..

Episode 168
Later that evening
I sat alone in the dark drinking my wine.I smiled and
took out my phone.
Cal:hello
Me:thank you
Cal:once again, i heard the good news
Me:yeah Odirile is good and thanks for paying him.
Cal:no big deal
Me:how is Nicole?

Me:how much do you have
Cal:a lot
Me:okay i will send you my banking details you will

Cal:okay
I hung up and switched on the lights going into the
bedroom.I noticed the window was half open and the
wind was blowing the curtain in.My whole body got
goosebumps.
Me:hello..anyone..i heard the main door slam..,i ran to
bedroom door,someone opened from outside while i
tried to close it,i screamed loud then bit their hand,i
fell down and a big fat man walked in.He took out a
knife and stabbed me on the stomach,he took it out
and stabbed me again.He took it out again and
stabbed my chest.I could feel my soul slowly leaving
my body.
Man:die bitch you messed with the wrong people. I
saw his boots as he walked out of the room.I crawled
to the bed and took my phone,i tried to call Ame..the
last thing i remember is dialing her number.
At Cal's place
Nicole:dad when are ee going to see mum?
Cal:during the holidays
Channel:i miss her
Cal:go get my phone so you call her
She ran to the bedroom and came with the phone.He
dialed me and it rang unanswered,he called again.

Cal:be careful magodu a malatsi a can even rob you

OD:haha okay i will call you in a few minutes
He went outside and took out his gun,he noticed
some movements in the trees.
OD:Babe..
He took out his phone and switched on the flash
light,he noticed a man boots hiding behind the
mango tree.He aimed at the boot and shot, the heavy
man fell down on the ground.He touched his leg
crying like a goat being killed.
He ran to the man and noticed he was carrying a
bloody knife.
OD:shit..
He ran to the house and took his car keys calling the
police.The man tried to escape and he shoot him on
the other foot.

168.5
He got in his car and opened the gate leaving it
open,he put on a headset and dialed his girlfriend,it
rang unanswered until voicemail.
OD:babe..dont go to the house today,i am on my way
to Phatsimo's i have a bad feeling something bad is
going to happeng if not yet..
He hung up and took a left turn,he could see from a
mile away that the living room door was not
closed.He dialed the ambulance before getting in the
yard.He took out his gun and slowly walked in.
OD:Phatsimo..(got in the kitchen)Phatsimo...
He opened the bedroom door slowly and stepped in
the flowing blood.He looked at the lifeless body on
the floor and held his chest before he vomited all
over.
He carried my body to the car and dialed Cal in the
way.
Cal:yeah
OD:she has been stabbed,she is still breathing but i
am afraid
Cal:(stood up)Stabbed?
OD:i will call you when i reach the hospital,i am

At Cal's house

plane,he silently walked to the pool amd sat down
with his legs in the water.
Kelly:are you okay?
Cal:OD just called a re she found Phatsimo in a pool of
blood she has been stabbed.
Kelly:(covered her mouth)oh my God,do you think its
the same person whi tried to kill her boyfriend
Cal:(stood up and looked at Kelly with redish
eyes)whoever did this will pay,big time.
He walked to the house dialing his friend.
Cal:hey man i need your help with something..
At the hospital
Ame ran inside and looked around,she saw OD.

OD:she is in theater they say she lost lots of blood
Ame fell down on her knees crying.OD pat her back
while she cried her heart out.
Ame:she is all i have i can't loose her too oh please

The police walked in with the fat guy,OD noticed him
from a distance and shook his head.
Officer:(wrote down)do you know him
OD:yes i represented his sister not a long time back.I

Dumi:i will bring it after work..
At the hospital
Ame sat on the bench her mind all over,she saw
Botshelo's mum carrying Donah and Warona
following them smiling.
She imagined how they would handle the whole
thing,flashbacks of her mum in a coffin came back
instead she saw her sister in it.
OD:Ame
Ame:(came back to earth)yeah
OD:how is she what did the doctor say?
Ame:she is going to die

They both turned at looked at her.
At Pablo's house
Three men went around the house carrying guns.

169.5
The power went off..One man fell down then the
other.
The third man fired the gun up waking up Pablo.
Wife:(sleepy)was that? Aaah a gun?
Pablo:dont go anywhere.. Stay here..
He tried to switch on the lights but there was no
power.He put in his gown and went outside.He
opened his drawer and took out his gun.
Pablo:Alias???..Troy...
He heard noise in the garage and saw light..
Pablo:(shouting)Alias...
The lights came on
Cal:Pablo
He turned around slowly..
Pablo:The mighty Calvin has risen,i thought you were

Cal:(pointed a pistol at him)you sent your goons to kill
the mother of my kids..
Pablo:(mexican accent)she is not dead yet..(looked at
the time on the wall Watch)well atleast for now.. I see

Cal:(pounted at his forehead)not her..you messed
with the wrong one
Pablo:now you know how it feels like to loose a loved
one huh..you failed to protect her. .i knew she was
the most precious thing to you..i want you to feel
how i felt 20 years ago when you killed my wife and
your fraud of a lawyer proved your innocence.
Cal:i didnt kill her..she killed herself..i see you want ti
join her right
Pablo:how many times have you pointed that gun at
me Calvin?you don't have what it takes...you are a
coward your father and brothers always doing your
dirty deeds
He pressed in the trigger and hit Pablo in the
forehead,he fell in his back.
He opened his safe and took out all the money and
drugs..
Pablo's wife sat quietly in the bedroom expecting her
husband to walk in any minute.She heard a car
outside,she watched as it drove into the mainroad.
Wife:honey...babe..
She opened the door and meet with his husband's
lifeless body.He screamed outloud..
At the hospital
Wawa:is mum dead too?

Wawa:you said they stabbed her
OD:you heard wrong come lets go get candy
He walked behind them
Mmagwe Botshelo:eish i feel sorry for the poor kids..i
dont mean to sound negative but how would they
survive without both parents?
Ame:what do you mean?
MmagweBotshelo:Botshelo's condition is still the
same..even if he wakes up he won't be able to do
anything for himself.I am a positive person but the
truth is always the truth we have to face it..Botshelo
no longer has life in him.Its just the grace of God that
he is still breathing
Ame:we have to be positive
MmagweBotshelo:and hopefully but if God says yes
no one can stand before him.. Orebotse

him,she felt him grip her hand.She opened her eyes..
Her:Botshelo???
He held her hand tighter and started mumbling.She
ran outside calling the nurse.The nurse checked his
pupils and buzzed the doctor.
Nurse:Mam can you wait outside for a while
Her:(happy)has he really woken up?
Nurse:yes
He looked up and the light hurt his eyes.The nurse
gave him a glass of water.
The doctor walked in and smiled at him.He touched
his legs and he moved them,he slightly hit his arms
and he pulled them back.
Doc:its about time you woke up man,Nurse go get
the MRI ready we want to do a scan
Botshelo:Phatsimo.
Doc:haha thats how you ended up here in the first

Episode 171
I squezed his hand a little tighter.
Cal:Phatsimo??
He stood up and called the nurse.He held my hand
while the nurse checked my pupils and blood
pressure.
Cal:is she okay?
Nurse:she has woken up
Cal:(kissed my hand)babe can you hear me?
Nurse:let me go get the doctor
I slowly opened my eyes,i put a hand on my forehead.
Cal:hey
Me:hi
Cal:you gave us a scare
Me:water
He helped me drink the water.He looked at me and
smiled squeezing my hand.
Me:Is he really awake?
Cal:(smile faded)Botshelo?
Me:yes
Cal:yeah yesterday Ame called
Me:is he okay?
Cal:yeah from what she said he is fine just a little
dizzy
Me:okay
We remained quiet for a long time until i fell asleep.
At Letsholathebe
The doctor walked in and found Botshelo on the
floor,he rushed to his side and helped him stand up.
Doc:you are pushing yourself too hard please take
your time you will be able to walk in no time
Botshelo:i feel hopeless,i don't even know if i will
ever walk.
Doc:yes you will..your mind is working slowly now
because you have been in a long coma,i guarantee
you you will be fine next week.
His mother walked in with the kids,Wawa jumped on
the bed hugging her dad.Donah smiled shyly hiding
behind his grandmother.
Botshelo:Dodo come here
Wawa:i missed you daddy
Botshelo:(pinched her cheeks)i missed you too..Dodo
the rra come here
He walked over with his thumb in his mouth,he got in
the bed and smiled hugging his dad.
MmagweBotshelo:he has started sucking his thumb i
tried to stop him but wa gana
Botshelo:he normally does that when he is sad i think
the whole thing affected him.
Wawa:when are we going home?
Doc:let me excuse you
Wawa:dad you are no longer sick?
Botshelo:(looked at Donah)yes..Mum when did they
last see their mum?
MmagweBotshelo:about a month back?
Botshelo:why?
MmagweBotshelo:eish its a long story
Botshelo:the whole thing has affected my son,first
he stopped seing Lone now his mum and dad that's
why he looks this pale and sucking her thumb.He is
sad i think ee should take him for counselling..well
both of them.
MmagweBotshelo:i was thinking the same thing and
you should start going to church tota nothing will
work out for you without God's intervention.Look
what just happened you left Phatsimo for some buisy
girl,its the work of the devil if you are not careful you
will loose everything.
At Ame's
She went through her contacts and came across his
number.She hesitated to call him at first but did
anyway.
Him:hello

mistakes thinking she is following her heart
Marv:i dont follow but if its an emergency we can

Ame:thanks
She hung up and sat down looking at the family
album.Her phone ran and she answered on the
second ring.
Ame:hello

Cal:yeah maybe an hour back..You have to come

back to the door,the door slowly opened.

Kelly,she smiled greeting me and i smiled back.
Cal:guts go wait outside please i want to talk to

They ran outside, Kelly sat on the chair and Cal stood
behind her.
Cal:how are you feeling now?
Me:i am alive that's all that matters
Kelly:and emotionally?do you have flashbacks or
nitmares?
Me:no i am fine,i keep thinking about the man like

Cal:i know..but please be strong for yourself and the
kids..we want you out of here walking
Kelly:yeah we need you

Episode 172
After they left i stretched my legs going to the
bathroom.I came back and found Ame sitting on the
bed.
Ame:heee haha i thought you were dead
Me:(hugged her)not just like that girl i am a die hard
ga o bona ke paletse dithipa jaana
Ame:haha yeah neh
She sat down and talked about this and that.
Ame:Botshelo is awake
Me:yeah Cal told me
Ame:you guys are civil to each other this days
Me:yeah
Ame:getting back together anytime soon?
Me:i don't know he has a girlfriend now
Ame:and she adores your kids
Me:you know being here made me realise
something..i made a decision to follow my heart you
know i was always afraid to go back to Calvin
thinking what would people say?what would Ame
say?What would Botshelo say? I am done with the
negative thinking.i always went back to Calvin even
when i knew he was a criminal, when i knew he killed
people.I still loved him even when i knew he kept
away from my child and when i knew he...he... Had
something to do with Martin's death.I never hated
him..truth is he did everything in the name of love.His
love for me is more than what words can describe.I
want him back,i know you don't like him but i do..i
love him.I have made up my mind..i am going to give
him one last chance ke kgotsofatse pelo yame.I
decide to ignore everyone and go for what the heart
wants.
Ame looked at me like she wanted to strangle me.
Me:i am sorry for being such a dissapointment Ame
but thats the truth..i will be 30 in a few weeks and i
don't want to play games anymore,i am going for
what i want even if the whole world hates me.
Ame:ehe mma
Me:yes
Ame:i guess you needed the heartbreak, the crying
and stabbing to realise you loved him
Me:i always knew i loved him just cared a little gore
what will people say.
Ame:but you said he has a girlfriend
Me:so..he was married before..Kelly is not a threat
Ame:Ehe mma i don't know what to say.you are right
o motona and i hope you wont regret your decision.
Me:whats life if we don't take risks?
Ame:yeah neh

Continuation...
Me:i hope you respect my decision
Ame:you already made your decision Phatsimo my
opinion doesn't matter but always remember how he
treated you..he controlled your life he took away
your happiness but if you want round two then go fo
it..but since we making life changing decisions let me
tell you this.If you go back to Calvin then i am done
with you like done done done..i cant believe you
could be this stupid but hey... Botshelo loves you,he
makes one mistake and you go back to the guy who
wronged you more than i can count.
She grabbed her bag and walked a fee steps to the
door, she looked back and shook her head.
Me:it wont kill you to be happy that...
Ame:(shouting)that what? That you are ruining your
life agg man
She slammed the door.I sat down on the bed and
dialed Calvin.
At Letsholathebe
The doctor pushed Botshelo outside in a wheelchair.
Doc:man i hope i never see you here again
Botshelo:believe me you wont..
Doc:good
He helped him get in the car then his manager drove
away.
Botshelo:you know this whole thing just made me
realise that God indeed is alive, if it wasnt for my
mum's prayers i would nt be alive.
Manager:i am just glad you are okay boss
Botshelo:this was a lesson.. I want to make life
changing decisions focus on my kids and God basadi
ke stress hela.
Manager:haha you are really giving up on Tsitsi?
Botshelo:i cant believe i am saying this but yes..nna le
ene whenever we try to make things work there is
always something..thats a sign,this time it wasnt her
fault, God knows we tried and i love her so much but
re batona we can't keep going in circles.
At Cal's house
Cal grabbed his phone and went outside
Cal:hello

172.5
Cal:Botshelo makes you happy..he is the perfect man
for you..you guys have been through a lot and you
still found a way to get back together,all i want from
you is your forgiveness nothing more.I believe God
has given me a second chance at happiness,Kelly
loves me more than i can ever explain he makes me
want to be a better person,she is my second chance
at love.So i just want you to know that you dont have
to worry about me acting like a jerk behind you, i will
respect your relationship.
Okay thats was not what i was expecting,his words
had torn my heart into Pieces.
Cal:so what where you going to say?
Me:i forgive you for everything and thanks for
everything you have done for me and for Botshelo.If
it wasn't for you i would be in jain right now and
Botshelo would be dead maybe..so thank you.
Cal:i did everything because i love you Tsitsi and we
need you.
Me:yeah you did say that.. Anway thats all i wanted
to say
Cal:you sounded a bit serious over the phone.
Me:(faked a smile)so my forgiveness is not important
Cal:it is..can i get a hug?
Me:sure
He hugged tightly and let go.
Me:bring the kids tomorrow
Cal:oh we are going to some church thing..Kelly's dad
invited us
Me:(dissapointed)oh..bye

At Sedibeng lodge
The receptionist gave me the keys to the back family
house.
Me:thanks
Receptionist:You are welcome enjoy your stay here
Me:i hope i will
I helped Cal with the grocery bags,he walked behind
me whistling,i opened the door and he put the
plastics in the floor.
Cal:(massaging his shoulder)i thought we were
getting chocolate and chips only
Me:that was before you forced me to stay here for
two weeks,what time are you bringing the kids?
Cal:later..can i say something?
Me:what?
Cal:you still have the ass through everything and it
still stands
Me:haha is that why you were whistling behind me?
Cal:haha no
Me:okay,let me shower and take a nap before the
kids arrive
Cal:okay i better go,i am a phonecall away
Me:yeah i know
Cal:okay bye
He put his hands in his pocket walking to the door.
Me:um Cal
Cal:(turned back)ya
Me:last time..i wanted to tell you something..
Cal:what?
Me:um before you told me you were planning on
marrying Kelly..i wanted to tell you that.. I was willing
to give you another chance..another chance to be a
family again
Cal:what?
Me:but it doesn't matter now,you are engaged and
Kelly means the world to you i wouldn't want to get
in between that.
Cal:(held both my shoulders)you wanted to give us
another chance?
Me:(looked down)yes
He let go of me and sat on the sofa his head burried
in his hands.
Me:i am sorry i came on to you like this but it won't
be fair on me if i don't tell you how i feel before you
get married.
Cal:why didn't you tell me that time?
Me:after you said you would stay away from me..i...i
lost all hope of us ever getting back together raising
our kids together.
He stood up and paced around the room,i sat down
and he knelt before me.
Cal:i want you to get better..then we can talk about
us
Me:no..i... I want to move on.. Forget the past..i hate
to do this but i want you to choose between me and
Kelly..
Cal:Tsitsi you can't expect me to tell her am sorry
Kelly Tsistsi and i are getting back together that
easy..
Me:you think it was easy for me to give up on
Botshelo that easy? No it wasn't but i had to do what
i want without worrying what people would think of
me.My sister gave me an ultimatum.You or her and i
choose you..Actually i am not asking you to choose i
am telling you to let go of her,i have sacrificed a lot
for you before and still doing that.
Cal:you can't make that big decision without talking
to me first,i would never allow you to choose me
over your sister..
Me:(looked away)well its done..

Episode 174
Later that evening
At Botshelo's
He laid on the bed and dialed my number.
Me:hello
Botshelo:hey..how are you?
Me:much better..you?
Botshelo:much better..still haven't been discharged?
Me:um..yes maybe next week
Botshelo:we survived hey
Me:i never apologised about the whole thing
Botshelo:yes me too i am sorry how i treated you..i
still cant believe i did all those things,i mean One..i am
so ashamed
Me:let bygones be bygones.I forgive you for
everything,it doesn't make sense but still i forgive
you
Botshelo:thanks i forgive you for hitting me in the
head too
Me:haha ao rra did you have to say that?
Botshelo:sorry okay..but am glad it happened it made
me grow closer to God and see things with a
different eye..
Me:ohhh how so?
Botshelo:our relationships never worked because
love was not the main focus but pity and obligation.
Me:pity?i loved you
Botshelo:but not more than Calvin,you felt pity for
me because everytime you went back to him i was
hurt the most.
Me:thats not true..i made mistakes.. I always went
back to you because you made me feel like i was
worth it,you respected me and loved me
unconditionally,i never forced myself to love you
Botshelo:well..i guess the love triangle had to come
to an end..this time i am the one letting go of my end.
**i swallowed hard**
Me:its okay..we are adults,i hope you find someone
who deserves you
Botshelo:i am sorry it had to end like this
Me:its cool

in a healthy sex.
Still standing he turned me around and made me
touch my toes..i could literally feel his dick down my
throat.My vaginal walls closes and he pulled out
breathing heavily.
He picked me up again, my legs were shaking and i
was thirsty.He put me on the edge of the bed and
squatted looking into my vagina,he kissed my clit and
tongue fucked me..i screamed into a pillow while he
did his magic..the guys was not good only in the

He went faster and deeper then i heard him roar like
a big animal..He closes his eyes and smiled a little,he
laid ontop of me for a few seconds then pulled
out.We both breathed heavily next to each other.He
wiped both of us and put his hand around me

Botshelo:no goobye kiss?
She leaned over and baby kissed him,he pulled her on
his lap and French kissed her his hand going in her
dress,she shyly closed her eyes breathing heavily.
He unzipped her dress at the back,cipped her breasts
and took of the bra.He sucked her nipples his middle
finger playing with her clit.She wanted more..right
there at that time.He picked her up walking out of
the study room,she kicked the door closing it.
Surprised Botshelo pinned her against the wall
kissing her neck,she wrapped her legs around him.
He lowered her a little,moved her panty to the side
amd penetrated.
Both:aaah...##'/(!=
He went in slowly in circles,her bean was vibrating
and sje lost control of her legs.She hated how much
she enjoyed it,she never imagined in a million years
would she behave like a slut and have sex with her
husband in his study room.
He put her on the table and put her legs on his
chest,she screamed in pleasure,he had touched her
gspot..she felt the need to urinate,he went faster
and faster,he pulled out splashing his cum on her
tummy as tje same time she splashed her urine all
over him.Embarrased she covered her face..
At Church
She locked her car and walked in fixing her skirt..She
took off her shades and sat down apologising for
being late.
Anna:so what have i missed?

Episode 188
OD dropped me of at work and went to his office..i
drafted everything i wanted for the wedding,from
the theme colour to the decorations and cake..the
music and tent, OD was right i didn't need the
wedding planner but a financial advice,i was planning
on spending a quarter of the money i got from Calvin
in the wedding but how the hell was i going to explain
it to OD?
And a quarter was a lot..i am not a selfish person but i
wanted my big day to ne talk of the year i was even
planning on inviting big musicians,yes thats how
exited i was.
After work i went to see the florist,the roses and
flowers were pretty.I bought a few things and waited
by the stop for a taxi..I saw Botshelo's car from a mile
away..the kids were at the back and i waved at them.
Anna stopped and waved at me.
Me:hey babies,hello Anna
Anna:hello are you waiting for a taxi?
Me:yes my little sister is using my car
Anna:lets go
I hesitated but finally got in,atleast she would drop
me at the gate and save me the walk.
Wawa:mama what did you buy?
Me:just ice cream and chips
Donah:can we have ice cream
Wawa:please mummy
Me:okay..when we get home you can't be eating in

Me:thank you
Anna:i still remember the day Botshelo proposed..oh

I looked through the window as she talked amd
talked,i wasn't really listening to her because i was so
not interested in what she was saying.
She dropped me off at the gate and the kids went
with me inside,i gave them ice cream in their cups
and they ran to the car.
Me:thanks for the ride
Anna:no problem
Me:is the school bus not working again?i really don't

kids's fees.
OD got in right after they left,he parked in the garage
and took out the plastics from his boot.
OD:ne ke diilwe ke go tsena mo dishopong..i bought

He took out the Nike track suigs and showed me.I
smiled and went inside the house.
OD:they will look great on Bofelo but the track top

thermometer and gave it to me.
Her:he is okay.. See you tomorrow

At Botshelo's

190.5
He found Anna sitting on the bed applying lotion on
her leg,her mind was far away.He looked at her for a
few seconds smiling as she rubbed the same spot a
million times.
He knelt before and and took the lotion in his hand
and applied it on her knees,she smiled and he smiled
back.
Anna:i am..
He interrupted her with a kiss,okay she didn't expect
that she though he would be super angry at her.She
closed her eyes and slowly kissed him back but he
was not in the slow motion.He parted her legs and
went down on her,she remembered what had
happened yesterday.She had never been so
embarrased,he tickled her bean with his tongue
while cupping her firm small breasts,she opened the
legs wider and wanted more than the tongue.
He took off his trouser while still buisy.He stopped
and walked to the bathroom.She followed him.
Anna:hi
Botshelo:i am sorry i forgot we can't have sex
everday
Anna:oh..
She walked back while he smiled enjoying the warm
water from the shower,she turned back and joined
him.She knelt down,closed her eyes and took the
anaconda in her mouth.She could feel her liver
mixing with her large intestines,it was disgusting buf
she had to do what she had to do.Botshelo grabbed
her head and mouth fucked her,she wasn't good but
atleast she was going deeper.
She gagged ready to vomit and took it out,Botshelo
helped her stand up and picked her up in suspence as
he directed his big dick in her wet whole.She held on
to his as he drilled her,she lost control of her legs
which made her a bit heavier.He carefully took steps
out of the shower and pinned her against the wall.
At Cal's
Kelly tucked in her son and joined Cal on the bed.She
touched his soft dick.
Cal:babe i am not feeling well
She got ontop of him and kissed his stomach.
Kelly:i can make you feel better
Cal:(annoyed)Babe stop it
She slowly got off him and slept facing the other
direction.His phone received a whatsapp inbox from
OD.He sat on the bed looking at the picture of my
hand with a ring on it.
OD:i want you to hear about it from me first
Cal:congrats man
OD:thanks i thought you would be a bitch about it

parked her clothes and walked out pushing the

Kelly:yes..
He picked her up and kissed her pinning her against
the wall.
Later that evening
I put the plates in the cupboard and bent down
putting the pots in the lower board. OD stood behind
me holding my waist,he pulled down my pyjama
pants exposing my vagina,he put his finger in his
mouth and played with it on my hole,okay how the
hell was i going to explain to him that i could'nt have
sex for a week.I felt him slowly slide in and thrust
slowly holding my stomach,for the first time in my
life i didn't want to have sex and i had to fake enjoy
it,truth is he was going a bit deeper.
He turned me around kissing my neck taking off my
pants.
Me:bbb..bbabe..
OD:uhhh
He went a bit deeper and i screamed,he stopped and
looked into my eyes.
OD:are you okay?
Me:(teary)mmmh
He put me on the kitchen counter and spread my legs
looking into my vagina as he went in and out.
Someone knocked at the door and we ignored
them.At last we heard the car drive away.
He went in deeper faster then i felt his dick become
soft in me.My legs were shaking not because of the
steamy sex but because of the pain,i faked a smile as
he carried me to the bedroom.He laid me on the bed
and wiped both of us.We cuddled for a few minutes
without saying a word.
OD:babe
Me:mmh
OD:i think we should go see a doctor and untie your
tubes
Me:(got up)huh??
OD:i spoke to my mum,even if it doesn't happen we

OD:yeah them we can test for all the diseases
Me:babe..um.. I have to tell you something

untied my tubes
He got off bed and looked at me..
Me:babe you don't know how much it hurts me

OD:we are a team..we make decisions together

Episode 194
Me:babe..i did it..
OD:(calm)do you know what team work is,how do i
marry someone who do such things without
consulting me
Me:what are you saying?
He grabbed a pillow and walked out,i tried to stand
up and the pain wouldn't let me.I cried silently until i
fell asleep.
The next morning
He was sleeping peacefully on the sofa,i knelt down
amd shook him.
Me:babe
He slowly opened his eyes and pulled over the cover.
Me:Rragwe Bofelo
OD:Mmagwe Bofelo
Me:i am sorry,i am sorry i untied my tubes without
talking to you..i am sorry i make decisions without
you..iv never been married..i don't know how this

wedding..i love you
He pulled the cover down the cover and baby kissed
me.
OD:did i hurt you?
Me:mmmh
OD:i am sorry,you should have told me the truth from
the start.
Me:i am sorry
OD:i am sorry i even thought of calling off the
wedding
Me:understandable,i promise starting from today i
will be 100% honest with you
OD:me too..i love you
Me:i love you more
He pulled me ontop of him and kissed me while he
played with my boobs.
At Botshelo's
He put the bowl of oats on the table and went into
the bathroom.He bathed Donah while Wawa put on
lotion.
Wawa:are you going to do my hair?
Botshelo:i can try
Donah:why is mama not bathing me
Botshelo:she is sick
Wawa:arw you going to bath us everyday?
Botshelo:no you are going to your mum's after
school.
Donah:forever?
Botshelo:get out
He dried him while he stood on the corner of the
bed,Wawa brushed her teeth and wore her school
uniform while Botshelo helped Donah.
In the bedroom
Anna slowly ate the oats and went into the
bathroom,she noticed some small blood stains on
her panty.
Anna:(scared)Babe...babe..
Botshelo rushed to the bathroom.
Anna:(crying)i am bleeding
Botshelo:any pains?
Anna:no..we should rush to the hospital
He helped her put on her gown and she took her
handbag.
Anna:God please save my baby
Botshelo:babe..i don't think its nothing big..
Phatsimo...
Anna:(angry)heeey..don't you ever try to compare me
to that woman she has a million kids and this is my
first child, i have every right to panick
She got in the passenger seat and he went back to
pack the kids's lunch packs.
She hootered for him and he picked up Donah.
Botshelo:Warona lets go
Wawa:daddy we haven't had breakfast
Botshelo:lets go.. Grab an apple
She stood in the middle of the room and folded her
arms.
Wawa:i am hungry..

Anna blew the hooter once more,Botshelo pulled
Wawa by the hand,he lifted her up and put her in the
car and closed the door.He looked at her through the
driver's mirror,her hands were still folded and she
was teary.
Botshelo:Warona Aunty is sick,we can't wait for you
to eat first she has to be at the hospital.She kept
quiet as he drove out of the yard,Anna silently cried
touching her stomach.
At the hospital
OD held my hand as we walked to the parking lot
laughing,i saw Botshelo's car and i waved at the kids.
Me:wonder why they here
OD:you should check out,let me go say hi to my uncle

I walked to the car pressing my phone.Botshelo
opened the door for Anna and helped her inside.
Me:(concerned)is she okay?
Botshelo:yeah she...
Anna:(interrupt)this is no place to catch up i need to

Botshelo gave me the look amd they went
inside,honestly speaking i was concerned,i opened
the door for Donah and he hugged me.
Me:how are you?(fixed his tie)look at you looking so

She kept quiet looking down.
Me:Rona???
Donah:Dad was yelling at her and Aunt was yelling at

Me:Warona?
Wawa:i want to live with you and uncle
Donah:can i come too
Me:whats wrong with living with daddy?
Wawa:he always yells at us..
Donah:and he starves us..
OD came towards us,i wiped off my tear,never in my
life would i have thought he would do that,Donah to

have thought she was lying.
OD:everything okay..?

didn't answer he called back after a few minutes.
Botshelo:Phatsimo

rain,your smile,your laughter your best friend but
mostly the best husband.
He placed the ring on my finger
Pastor:with that said i now pronounce you husband
and wife you may kias the bride.
He removed my bail and baby kissed me.Everyone
stood up cheering as we walked down the isle.We got
in the well decorated car and went to Amour
gardens,the tent was set,everything looked
beautiful,we took photos as everyone took their
seat.
The deejay played our dancing songs and we danced
to our seats then sat down.
Ame:(whispering)o bone Calvin?
Me:mmmh
I turned my head to OD who was still chatting with
his best man.
Me:finally i can eat
OD:(smiling)women...
Everyone came to congratulate us shaking our
hands, it was mostly our relatives,family and mates.
The DJ played Mafikizolo's kucheza and the kids took
their places dancing,i don't mean to bragg but i have
beautiful babies,the girls' red and royal blue dresses
matched with the boys'bow ties,Nicole,Tess and
Pearl were also dancing and some of my sister in-
law's kids.Everyone looked pretty.
The DJ played Hlomela after and Wawa went
crazy,she made a circle amd got in dancing on the
chair,he dancing skills really made me want to keep a
close eye on her.
After lunch i changed into a royal blue bandage dress
that had red laces on the neck and the kids changed
into blue jeans and Red of shoulder tops and blue
shoes.
We danced for a few minutes and i went to sit down
while Cici was taking the lead with her gwara
gwara,seing all my babies there made me smile, like i
had people calling me names for having many kids
but the joy they brought me overshadowed the
negativity.
Me:Bofelo fell asleep,wa borega kana o bata go

OD:haha he doesn't even know he is wearing
expensive clothes,go gogoba go mo tsene
Me:haha..i loved your vows
OD:i loved yours even more,i love you Phatsimo
Odirile..
Me:mmh you getting me emotional,i love you more

The MC gave us a chance to thank everyone who
came to our wedding and for the lovely presents.
Cal and Kelly sat at the back tables,they were
laughing at something,also spotted Botshelo, he was
with his mother and sister, no sigh of Anna,i turned
my head and looked at Odirile,he smiled back at me
squeezing my hand.I looked at my kids who looked
bored now,Cici was busy taking selfies.At the far end
was Cal's parents next to Lefika's table.

Later that night
OD and i danced slowly to Antony Hamilton.The
parents had gone home with the kids,it was adults
only
We sat down at the big table and did cheers.
Tiro:(OD's best man)when OD told me he is getting
married after only 2 months of dating i thought he
was joking like who gets married that quickly.But
when i got to know Phatsimo,i understood why the
sudden rush,she is pretty,she is calm,respectfull,the
list is endless,i feel pity for those who lost her
because amongst rocks she is a diamond.
OD:(stood up)ae monna lesa go boka mosadi wame
thata.. (held my hand)when i meet you..i had my
doubts am not going to lie,i was afraid to give my all
but as time went by, i couldn't imagine life without
you, i didn't want to sleep without you by my
side,(smiling)i even moved to her house, thats how
much i love her.Phatsimo o don't know what to
say,you have changed my life,i trust you with my life
and the life of my mother,my whole family.I am just
waiting gore reception e fele so that i can show you

laughed as he tickled her.
Anna:babe no toga ke ithotela kana..
Botshelo:haha sorry babe..
At Home
I laid on the bed on my back watching our wedding
video..Aww we looked so happy,my little sister
looked so cute..I took my phone and dialed her,it hurt
me so much that she was going through stuff and
couldnt talk to me,we had always been close,she was
more of a big sister than a little sister to me,she had
matured before me despite the 4 years difference.
Ame:(sleepy)hello
Me:hey so i am bored,Cici took the kids swimming,OD
went to watch the match..how about some little
shopping

I hung up and put the laptop down.I took a quick
shower then drove to Ame's.
We did a little window shopping then had lunch at
Nandos.I couldnt help listen to the woman who was
sitting behind us,mxm waitse some women are
trash,how do you brag about sleeping with
someone's husband.She was telling her friend that a
certain man slept at her house because he and his
wife had a misunderstanding,blah blah..okay she was
not bragging but still i am married i dont condone
such behaviour.
I turned around to see her clearly,wait i had seen her
somewhere.

Botshelo:how about we go shopping for baby clothes
tomorrow after the doctor's appointment..cant wait
to see if we are having a girl or boy
Anna:that sounds nice..can you get me a glass of
orange juice please
He wrapped himself with a towel and went out,she
reached for his phone and checked his messages and
call logs,there was just one odd number that was not
saved,she copied it to her phone and put the phone
back,Botshelo walked in and gave her the glass.
Anna:thanks
Botshelo:anything for the queen
She sipped on the juice slowly thinking who Ali
was,he had muttered her name when they made
love..did that mean he was still seing her,was she
good in bed?or worse did he love her?
Botshelo looked at her as she was lost in her
thoughts,he wondered if she had heard him,he just
found himself thinking about her while making love
to his wife,what the hell was wrong with him?he
prayed that she didnt hear him.
She finished the juice and gave it to him.
Anna:then massage my back..
Botshelo:yes mam
He put the glass down and sat behind her massaging
her back with snail jell.
The following morning
At the doctors
He smiled as they all looked at the scan..

The following week was okay..Cal didnt call about the
kids moving,we went to see the house preparations,i
was so happy about the kids moving in with us and
raising my kids with a man who treated them
right,who treated me like royalty.
Thursday after work i went to Botshelo's concerning
the kids's school trip.It was just him and the kids.I
walked in and admired the house,it was so clean and
beautiful..it made me wonder many things..oh no
dont get me wrong i love my husband but..how
would have things turned out if we didnt break
up?would he had married me?mxm..i hate how we
cant be in control of what we think about.The kids
ran to me smiling,i picked up Donah..so heavy.
Wawa:have you come to take us?
Me:not yet but your room is so pretty..we should go
see it
Wawa:(happy)yes yes..mum you should buy us bunk
beds..Nel said i will sleep up and she down
Me:haha baby madi ga a lemiwe..they are expensive..
Wawa:daddy you will buy for us akere
Botshelo:mmmh..homework done?
She ran to her room and i put Donah down,he
followed Warona.
Botshelo:so you really want to take my kids away
from me?
Me:they want to..am not forcing anyone
Botshelo:the house is going to be so quiet..kana

Botshelo:takes after daddy..
Me:he is too quiet for a man..girls will hurt him
kana..mxm ke ka bolaa motho nna
Botshelo:haha cut the cord mosadi..seat down
We discussed the trip..and expenses..i wanted to pay
for the flights but because Botshelo thought i was
using OD's money he refused..and to tell him i had
almost a million pula was not going to happen.
I kept secretly looking at him as he spoke..haha he
had indeed changed..now i was not surprised he was
cheating,he had so much confidence compared to
back then.
Me:so where is your wife?
Botshelo:out..ko Morakeng
Me:mmh she is so lucky you not the cheating
type..kana o ka bo o le mo christmaseng now
Botshelo:haha..let me walk you out ke apee

Botshelo:thanks
I got in my car and we said bye,i watched him walk
back to the house..hee so he just dismissed me when
i was talking about him glowing and not being a
cheat..mxm made me wonder if he ever cheated on
me..oh yeah he did with that slut One.I guess all men
cheat..no no they dont because mine doesnt..yes
ladies and gentlemen i say that..my husband is not
the cheating type but then again i thought Botshelo
was not..eish life.never say never

fell down dead,a woman came out holding a baby.

She froze almost dropping the baby when she saw
her husband's body down in the floor.He shoot her

On our way back home
We drove home in silent,i bathed Bofelo then he fell
asleep on his dad's lap.I took him to the bedroom and
sat on his lap.
Me:i am sorry you missed your flight
OD:just how sorry are you?
Me:really sorry..can i show you how sorry i am
OD:mmmh
I knelt down and took his pipe from his jean,can i just
point out the importance of eye contact when you
give your man blow job?LOL
I looked at him as he relaxed on the sofa and i did my
magic.He grabbed my head and made me choke on
his dick,my throat hurt..i gasped for air as he picked
me up and put me on his dick.
OD:wait babe it wont hurt the baby right?
Me:shh..
I rode him until my feet hurt,i was sweating so bad
and breathing heavily.
He picked me up and pinned me down on the floor,he
put my legs on his shoulders and drilled me.

Somewhere in Gabs
A concerned neighbour opened the gate and walked

and dialed the police,he stepped on something and
picked it up,a gold pin,initials O N..he put it in his
pocket and left with the baby..

I had to do what any woman would have done,pissed
as i was i hurt his feelings.I shut him up with a kiss
and put my hand in his trouser..I could feel his lips
curve as he smiled.
Me:(knelt down)i am sorry
At Botshelo's
He parked the car in the garage and stayed in for
over half an hour,he could hear Anna and the kids
making noice inside,he deleted Ali's messages and
number then went in the house through the kitchen
door,Donah came running to him holding a big maize.
Donah:papa look what mama brought for us

His phone ran..it was a private number
OD:hello
Caller:i know what you did
OD:who is this?
Caller:your worst nightmare
9t

Episode 212
At home
OD opened the door and went outside,I put on my
gown and followed him
OD:(covered his phone`speaker)babe can you please
go inside
Me:(worried)you okay
I went back in the bedroom,my heart skipped a little
like something bad was about to happen,I
eavesdroped on his conversation.
OD: who the hell are you?
Caller:someone you need to be nice to because I
know what you did
OD:I am tracking this call,God help you that I dont
find you because you just threatened the wrong
person.
He hung up and I heard his foot steps come back in
the bedroom,I quickly jumped on the bed and
pretended to be sleeping.
OD:babe
Me:mmmh
OD:(putting on his jean)I will be back
Me:o ya kae?
OD:I want to do something,dont worry il be back in an
hour or two.
Me:Odirile who were you talking to?
OD:someone I need to take care of
Me:what do you mean take care of?are you going to
kill him?or her..
OD:babe...babe..trust me I am not a killer
He grabbed his phone and car keys
OD:lock the doors..I love you
Me:why does this sound like a goodbye?
OD:its not,always keep the doors closed,kiss Boy Boy
for me..I love you Phatsimo
He slammed the door almost waking up the baby,I
sat on the bed,his words had a lot of message behind
them like he was saying bye..Gosh..
I woke up the next day to Bofelo crying,OD was still
not back,I tried his phone and it was off,I bathed the
baby and prepared him for school,I drove to his office
and he was not there,I was embarrassed to ask
people where my husband was I mean what kind of a
woman doesn't know where her husband is I mean
even if he is with his side chick we always know.
My day went slower than a snail,after I knocked of I
picked up Bofelo and went home,I think he could
sense something was off too because he was not
himself,he didn't even cry,the house was quiet,God
knows I didn't want to become a young widow,I
hated how selfish he was,who in their right minds
leaves their pregnant wife all alone.
I heard a car park outside..I picked up Bofelo and ran
outside,mxm never in my life was I disappointed to
see Botshelo and the kids.
Wawa:mummy we missed you
Me:me too,what brings you bye
Botshelo:hi..OD o teng iv been trying to call him his
number is off
Me:he went out ne o reng..come inside
Wawa took Bofelo from me and they went into the
kitchen.
Botshelo:ke na le mathata,I feel OD is the only person
I can talk to..aah Tsitsi I fucked up so bad I dont know
if Anna will ever forgive me
Me:mmh
Botshelo:iv been cheating..
My phone rang
Me:let me answer this call
Botshelo:sure
I went into the bedroom and closed the door.
Me:Odirile wee you must think gore ke semata

word and you are still not home now.
Caller:hello mam ke setse phone ye by the road and

Me:il be there in a few minutes,il call
Caller:thank you
I hung up,mxm waitse my tongue was itching for
Odirile the nerve of that man.
I found Botshelo waving Bofelo in the air.
Me:can you wait for me for 10 minutes am going to
collect something ha mmolong
Botshelo:okay dont be late
I drove to Bimbos my mind all over,where the hell
was OD,the look on his face last night and his words
made me worry..what if Calvin had killed him,mxm.
I meet the young lady infront of Shoppers and she
gave me the phone,i was still surprised there are
people who can find your phone and give it back,i
mean it was an IPhone,who does that,i gave her 100
pula and she didnt take it.Something just didnt add
up,when she called she said o e setse now she said a
customer left it at Bimbos,she even claimed she
worked at Bimbos but she was not wearing the
uniform..i said thanks and went home,it was deja
vous..
When i got home i sat on the sofa while the kids
played.Botshelo was in the kitchen talking on the
phone.He came out,his face was red.
Me:you okay?
Botshelo:yeah,look iv got to go
Me:ne o re o mpolella sengwe.
Botshelo:mxm agg nothing..Anna is getting on my

I picked up Bofelo and walked them to the car,the
kids waved at me as he drove away,I went back in
and made us something to cook,I couldn't believe
how all of a sudden I was cool,like I didn't even care
OD left without a word.
Later I laid in bed going through my Facebook
timeline,I received an sms from Calvin.
Cal:hey,the kids will be coming next weekend,I am
going to Russia for a year or two,I know its sudden
but you wanted the kids anyway so..I will transfer
money into their accounts every month..
Uhu,ke mathata..
Me:shouldn't we have sat down ra bua ka bana eseng
sms?
Cal:or maybe I can take them with me
Me:whatever,fine
I continued scrolling my timeline and then visited
Anna`s timeline.Nothing interesting really just
quotes and scriptures,I went through her photos,she
wasnt really the prettiest woman but she was
beautiful I loved her nose though.
I put my phone under the pillow and slept.
At Botshelo`s
He took of his sleepers and got in bed,Anna was on
her phone watching something that made her laugh
like a nice retard.
Botshelo:(smiling)whats funny
Anna:(took of her headset)huh
Botshelo:let me see
Anna:its nothing interesting..(she put her headset on)
Botshelo:babe..can we talk
She ignored him,he took his phone and logged into
Facebook.
The following morning
I bathed my baby and took him to the doctors for his
monthly checkups then went to work.After work I
went to check on Ame then went home.
For the sake of my unborn baby I wanted to avoid
stress,OD is a grown up man he knew what he was
doing and what was at risk..
Time flew by without me realising it,so he had been
gone for almost a week now,no call no sms
nothing..mxm
Saturday morning I went to see his mother,I told her
everything well except the part of illegal mining.
Her:ke gore ngwanake o kae bathong..thats unlike
him what if one of the criminals he fights in court
have killed him?
Woooo I never thought about that,what if...oh my
God like I have been so angry without thinking..my
heart beat so fast and I was sweating.
Me:(crying)what if..oh my God
Her:when he gets back he better have a good
explanation..
Me:kana he deals with criminals everyday..what if he

2 days later
After checking up on the progress of the report i
picked up the kids at the airport,waitse everything
was so odd,I haven't heard from Calvin ever since
those smses,been communicating with his mother
about the kids.
From the airport we had pizza and went home.
Channel:mummy when are we moving to our new
house
Wawa:we are going to go to the same school?
Me:mmh,Nel where is daddy?
Nel:I dont know I haven't seen him since last week we
have been staying with granny
CJ:granny said he went on a business trip
Me:to russia?
Channel:yeah..so when are we.moving?
Me:when OD gets back..
My phone ran,the kids were making noise so I went
into the bedroom,it was an unknown number.
Me:hello
Caller:babe
Me:(heart skipped)Odirile? Babe are you okay?
OD:yeah..I am coming home tonight
Me:(crying)babe you sound sick,where are you ke te
go go tsaya?
OD:dont worry I am on my way now..I love you
He hung up before I could say I love you too..I sat on
the bed shaking my heart beating fast..Waitse what
happened for the past week didnt make any sense to
me at all,Cal left,OD went missing..
Around midnight
The kids were asleep,I sat in the dark staring in the
dark my mind was blank,I was just waiting for the
door to open and see my husband.
After what felt like a year if waiting there was a
knock at the door,
OD:babe
I ran to the door and opened for him,he fell on me,he
was heavy so I fell down too.I managed to stand up
and switch on the lights.
Me:(covered my mouth crying)Oh my God..no

Episode 214
Me:(covered my mouth)oh my God..no..babe what
happened..
I helped him stand up,he was heavy,the blood oh his
t-shirt was still wet which meant he was still
bleeding.I put him on the sofa and took of his shirt,I
don't know much about wounds but I know a gun
wound when I see one,he was grey and his heart beat
was slow.
Me:babe I have to take you to the doctor's
OD:no..call doctor Amida she does house calls
Me:babe..you are bleeding I can't take risks what it
she is attending another patient.
OD:please
I grabbed my phone and called her.
Me:a re she will be here in 10 minutes
OD:can you please get me water
I ran into the kitchen,helped him seat and drink from
the glass.I put hos head on my lap as we both
helplessly waited for the doctor.
After what felt like a decade she arrived,we moved
him to the bedroom and she asked me to step
outside.
I leaned on the door listening to him screem like a
small baby,my man was in pain bathong.I couldn't
help cry too,this had Calvin written all over it,koore
what did I ever do to that man apart from loving him.
I dialed his number and it ran unanswered the whole
time.I left him a voice note.
"You are evil and I hope you rot in hell for what you
did to Odirile,Satan"
CJ opened the door rubbing his eyes.
CJ:mama
Me:hey..go back to sleep
CJ:I want water
I gave him the glass and he took two sips,I tucked him
in,mxm I hated how much my son looked like
Calvin,that Satan's advocate.I watched him sleep,I
kissed his cheek and switched of the lights.
After almost an hour Amira came out taking of her
gloves.
Me:how is he?
Doc:he will be okay..I washed the wound
Me:its a gun wound?
Doc:he will tell you everything,he is sedated for
now,give him liquids for the next 72 hours..I will
come again in the morning.
Me:thanks
I walked her outside to her car,I made him soft
porridge incase he woke up.
I sat on the chair looking at him,he was pale.He
looked so handsome sleeping.I held his hand and
kissed it.
Me:I love you..God knows I do..please be
different,dont hurt me iv been through enough.
I woke up to the kids making noise outside and
banging on the door.OD was still sleeping.
I opened the door and closed it so they couldn't see
him like that.
Me:guys
Wawa:mama we are hungry
Me:How old are you?
They both looked at me confused
Me:you know when I was your age I made myself
breakfast,fried eggs and tea or juice its not
difficult,mummy is not going to be here all the time

Channel:mummy are you dying?


Me:no..I am just saying
CJ:are you going somewhere?
Me:haha no..now go make yourselves breakfast
Wawa:(crying)I a not hungry
Nel:me too

Me:okay then you guys go bath because I am taking

Wawa:but we want to stay here and swim
Me:Warona wee o molomonyana ka re go bath you

I picked up Bofelo and put him on his chair then feed
him soft porridge.Donah was sitting infront of the tv
watching cartoons silently,my poor baby always
quiet.
Me:ta o je motogo papa
I feed them both,our bedroom door opened and OD
walked out tying his gown.I supported him to the
chair.
Me:babe you could have called me.
OD:(smiling)I am fine,I am a strong man after all
Me:(kissed his cheek)I love you,I made soft porridge

After breakfast I drove to the kids to Ame`s and went
grocery shopping,its easier without the kids.
I cooked us a light lunch and we ate in the patio.
Me:dont forget to take your painkillers
OD: thanks
Me:you are welcome
OD:Calvin framed me,the day I was supposed to leave

he didn't deny anything,I left here ke re I am going to
make peace between us,I knew he did it because o

wanted to overlook everything and forgive him
because we had been friends for a long time and he

knew better..
Me:babe...you are scaring me
OD:he shoot me twice and left me to die..
Me:but he said he was going to Russia
OD:I sent that sms
Me:what?where is Calvin?

Episode 215
Me:(covered my mouth)did you kill him?
OD:he is somewhere he wont bother us again
Me:oh my God you killed him?
OD:would that be a bad thing?
Me:yes..he is my kids father,they gonna want to
know where their father is,Kelly is going to want her
husband..
OD:if this makes you feel any better,I didn't kill him
I stared at him for over five minutes,he smiled at me
and held my hand.
OD:and I thought you would be happy Calvin is out of
our lives
Me:I am but I wouldn't want you to be the one to kill
him,he is evil and I hate hom for what he did to you
but he is still my kids father,they love him,he is daddy
and he is awesome I wouldn't want to take that away
from them.
Somewhere in Gaborone
In a Hotel
Cal packed his back and wore his sunglasses,he
looked around the room,he had left nothing.He
picked his bag and opened the door,it was a bit
freezing outside,winter was already here.He locked
the door and got in his car,he took out his phone and
went through his kids photos,by the time he comes
back the twins will be teenagers and Nicole a pre
teen,Zayn would be 7 years by then,he would have
missed a lot.
He took outs his simcard and destroyed it,hit the
brakes headed to the airport.
At Botshelo"s
He followed Anna in the house,she took off her shoes
and put her bag on the table.He sat next to her and
took her hand into his.
Botshelo:therapy does help
Anna:yeah
Botshelo:I am glad you forced me to go to marriage
counseling..I had mixed feelings about us..I am sorry I
hurt you
Anna:I am sorry too,what you said..it made me realise

Anna:me too
Botshelo:(touched her belly)and thanks for giving me

Anna:and thanks for making me a mother..I love you
At Ali"s house
She folded her clothes with her mind miles
away,Botshelo hadn't called in almost a week
now,her mother's words kept repeating in her
mind.She looked around the house,she had almost
everything,a well paying job and a nice house,she
was debt free and could afford to spoil herself what
the fuck did she want in a married man,she stood
infront of the mirror and touched her her belly.She
had never been a mother before,was she going to
handle being a single mum?

2 Weeks Later
At Doctor Amira"s clinic
OD laid on the table as Doctor examined his wound.
Doc:you are okay now,you can get back to your
normal life
OD:hear that babe now I can make love to you o sa

opened.He took them off looking at Ali who was
standing on the door smiling.She closed it and locked
it.
Ali:(sat on his lap)hi
Botshelo:hi
She french kissed him and took his hand into her
dress,he cupped her boobs as she breathed a little
heavier.
They kissed for a few minutes and he took off her
panties amd played with her bean,she breathed
heavily as she opened her legs wider,he fingered her
and she unzipped his jeans and took out his big
anaconda,she was going to miss this.
She directed it her and started humping him,she
went slowly in circles,Botshelo didn't realise she was
crying.He picked her up and put her on the table,she
looked at him looking as he went in and out of her.He
went faster and stopped,he looked at her innocent
face and he pulled out,he penetrated again and she
opened her mouth breathing slowly.
He went faster...she moaned softly as she wrapped
her legs around him,there was no way he was going
to pull out now.He relaxed his body and cum inside
her,they remained like that for a few minutes,she
relaxed her legs and he pulled out.
They both kept quiet,as they wiped themselves and
she stood up putting in her panty liner on her pad.
Ali:I guess this is goodbye
Botshelo:I love you
Ali:(crying)I love you too
They hugged and she pulled her dress down,put on
her shoes and grabbed her bag.
Ali:thank you..

At the hospital
Anna stormed out as Botshelo followed her,everyone
was looking at them.
Botshelo:Anna wait
Anna:(stopped and looked at him)Botshelo we are
done for good..you killed my baby,I can.forgive you
cheating on me but I will never..never forgive you for
killing my baby
She took the car keys from him and got in the car,she
drove off almost hitting him,he ran outside and got
into a taxi,thank God it was one of his boys.
Botshelo:drive me to Ali's house..or just follow my car
Driver:sure
At home
We woke up to the sweet aroma,the kids were
making noise while Cici and Theo were making
breakfast,it was weird and unculturely..if ther is a
word like that..
OD:are you okay
Me:babe ke fila gore we are setting a.bad
example.for the girls,they gonna feel its okay to bring
boys over
OD:it is okay,then we can talk to them about safe sex
and the need to wait until they are older.
Me:aah nna ga ke rate,now they are playing happy
families in our house with our babies.
OD:(smiling)jealous?
Me:(punched him a little on the chest)no
We sat around the table and said grace,the food was
delicious and Theo turned out to be talkative more
than the day before and OD was entertaining
everything.
After breakfast we did laundry,showered and went
to check on my mother-in-law at the cattlepost.Cici
and her boy...I cant even say it..Cici and Theo
remained behind.
At Ali's house
The door opened and Anna stormed in followed by
Botshelo,Anna grabbed her by her expensive weave
amd got ontop of her punching her face and
stomach,Botshelo took her off Ali and she kicked
her,Ali fell on the floor.
Anna:(crying)ntogele Botshelo
Botshelo:are you crazy,she is pregnant you can't be
kicking her stomach
Ali:Botshelo please take your wife and leave me in
peace,I told you this is not your baby
Anna:wareng?huh..(kicked in the air)o ta nyella go

and mourn our baby,go for therapy and fix our
marriage then we can try for another baby
Anna:(attitude)fix what?le mang?o njela le makapi

She pushed the plasma tv and it fell down and
cracked,she went into the kitchen and broke every
glass she found.

Botshelo dragged her out of the house,she got in the


car and they drove off in silence,no one said anything
to one another,just before they arrived home,Anna
took off her seat belt and opened the door and
jumped outside,she fell down on the tared road
scratching her knees and elboys.
The other drivers stopped before hitting
her,Botshelo panicking,got out of the car and knelt
before her checking her pulse,she was still breathing
but unconscious.
The other driver came to them,he checked her pulse
again and helped Botshelo carry her to the car before
people started taking photos and videos.mxm its so
sad how people instead of helping decide to take
photos and videos to share on Facebook.Can I
personally say I hate those kind of people.
With the man behind with Anna Botshelo drove to
the hospital.
At Ali's house
After the car left she got out of her room and looked
at her tv on the floor,all her glasses were on the floor
smashed.She got a broom and swept them.
At the hospital
The doctors took Anna into the emergency
room,Botshelo followed them and they stopped him.
Doc:sir wait here we will update you
Botshelo:will she be okay?
Doc:(closed the door)pray for her
Around noon,at the cattlepost

plates,Mmagwe Odirile was feeding Bofelo.

and worn out.

She was sucking her thumb so I took her and
breastfeed her.
At Home
OD parked in the garage and staid in the car
crying,remembering all the pain a woman goes
through to bring a baby in the world,he wiped his
tears smiling thinking about his baby girl,she was
beautiful.

threw her handbag on the sofa and went straight to

bedroom.
At New Mall
Ali and her friend came out of Pep store carrying big
plastics,her tummy was a soccer ball big,she wore
leggings and a black maternity top.
Botshelo came out of choopies,he was looking down
typing on his phone,he bumped into her,her plastic
fell down and they both reached for it.
Botshelo:sorry
They both looked up
Botshelo:sorry

without saying a word.
Ali:it was nice seing you

OD got in the house and closed the door,the kids
were.playing outside.
He sat next to me and took Omi from me, she was
already asleep. He laid her down on the mattress and
leaned over kissing meshed placed my hand on his
boner and continued kissing me. I put my hand in his
boxers and played with his balls, he closed his eyes
then I took out his big hard eggplant, with his eyes
still closed I put it in my mouth, he breathed heavily
and pressed my head on his dick choking me with it, I
went on for a full five minutes then took a breath
while giving him a hand job, I continued again for a
full six minutes then he started humping my head, I
felt his shots down my throat, lol sperms are salty.
I removed my head and spit on the towel, he looked
at me smiling wiping himself.

The truck loaded Anna's things while she carried the
boxes to her car,Botshelo helped her.The truck left

in the middle of the room with no furniture,she had
taken everything even the bed,he smiled.His phone
got an sms
"I lied,Will is not everything,after we made love last

mistaken it for love,he is a fraud,a black widow.I
wanted to tell you this but I didn't want to see your
reaction,for the first time in a long time I want to

Botshelo read the message over five times,his phone
ran,he looked at the caller and hesitated answering.
Botshelo:hi

The heavy rain started pouring outside,it cut the
electricity and the room became dark.
Ali:Mmaoratwa is gonna be si dissapointed in you

He cut the call and searched for his car keys,he went
outside and ran to his car,he reversed out and joined
the road.
