Motheo pondered on the conversation he had with his mother on his way home. He drove as slow as he possibly could. He just thought back to how he felt when Molefe said David is his father.
He was 17 years old and he was now very close to the family and truly felt like he belonged there. He was treated like one of their children. Tiego being the only boy, almost all the things David would for Tiego, he'd do for Motheo.
He'd go home and show his mother everytime in excitement and Molefe would just look at him and then walk away. His parents were not financially stable but they could provide for him and his sister.
This man would be rude towards all of them at any given moment. He used to abuse his mother until he was old enough to stand up for her.
On his 18th birthday, his mother did not have the money to throw him a party but she bought some cake, a few snack and bought him a pair of his favorite sneakers at the time. He was very happy. It was the thought and effort behind it all that meant a lot to him.
Molefe came home at around 10pm and he was very drunk. He made alot of noise, calling Motheo's mother a bitch and every other nasty name. He started beating her up and some days Motheo would just check on his sister and make sure that she's OK until the fight stops.
Not this day. He was done with letting his mom suffer under his watch. He got out of his room, went into his parents' room and charged for him right there and then. He took out all his anger on him. He beat him up for all the times he disrespected his mother, for all the times he treated them poorly.
He wanted to make sure that the thought of touching his mother does not cross Molefe's mind ever again. Molefe's face was swollen and his body was aching all over. Motheo was completely fed up with the abuse.
He got home, parked the car and went in. His emotions were all over the place. One would think he'd get a drink and go to bed without saying a word. Instead, he took a shower, got in bed and screwed the shit out of his wife. She didn't even complain since she had a buzz going on.
They both dozed off.

Monday morning came. Tiego woke up and made his way to the gym. He always felt good about starting his day there. Not only was he always energized, he felt good about himself.
He went to the office and got some work done. Tiego was always a hard worker, he knew what he wanted and excelled when coming to his work. Him and Motheo work in the same field but different companies, focuses and provinces.
He couldn't help but wonder how he's going to just move past this mess with his wife and his best friend. He cared alot about Motheo and the thought of him fucking his wife behind his back just made him sad. He wasn't particularly angry, Tshidi had her fair share of affairs and Motheo was just like any other guy she'd fucked.
He went to the cafeteria to buy some food and had lunch in his office. He kept to himself alot lately, he just wasn't keen on entertaining anyone.
Just then, his phone rang.
"mama" He said with a smile as he answered his phone. "Hello, my baby" His mom answered, she sounded happy to hear his voice.
"how are you mom" he asked her.
"I'm fine my son. We havent spoken in a while you know... I miss you my boy" She said to him.
He sighed. "Tiego, is everything okay? She asked him.
"I'm OK mom, I have just busy... Everything fine at home?. How's dad?" He asked her.
"You trying to ignore the question makes me think that there's something wrong. Talk to me" His mother said.
"Tshidi and I aren't in good terms, but it nothing I can't handle. We'll be alright. He replied.
" I hope you're sure about this.... If you need a break you are more than welcome to join us here, plus we miss you. She said to him.
"I'll take you up on that offer mom. But seriously, I'm OK. So, how's everyone? He changed the subject again.
"Uhg, everyone and everything is fine. I wanted to remind you about our 40th anniversary celebration this weekend, I hope you haven't forgotten" she said.
"Nope, I haven't forgotten. He lied, he had too much in his mind that he forgot about his family's occasions.
" I'll be flying in on Thursday. He said to her. "Great, you'll help me with the last minute preps. She was excited. After 40 years, I couldn't even get to 10,Tiego thought to himself.
He always looked up to his parents. For him, they have always been the "It" couple. He said goodbye to his mom and so did she and then hung up.
He was somewhat excited to go back to Gauteng. However, the whole things with Tshidi and Motheo just made him feel uneasy. He just wanted all this to be untrue. He might not have like tshidi is his soul mate, but he cared about her. Alot. This was the mother of his child. He wouldn't see her hurt, no matter how hore-ish her ways may seem.
He prepared to go home as it was almost knock off time and he was exhausted. He passed by a liquor store and got himself a bottle of whiskey and made his way to the house.
When he got there, it was quiet. Very quiet actually, it seemed a little weird.
He chose to ignore the whole mood in the house as it rekindled him of the day he found his wife fucking another guy.
He unbuttoned his shirt, got a glass and took a gulp of his whiskey before pouring another one on the rocks. He decided to go and watch a little sports and as he was relaxing, he couldn't help but hear a sound of high heels clicking against the floor.
He turned his head, only to find his wife walking towards him with a sexy lingerie on.
