***Landokuhle's POV
I'm woken up by small hands playing with my face and some wetness around my face. I open my eyes and it's Suko holding my face with sucking my cheek. I grab her and try sitting up but I'm stopped by a pull on my short hair ; Meli is busy pulling my hair. I scream a little and they both giggle , another voice giggles and I know it's Kabelo.
Me : "Kabelo get your kids off me!" He laughs and picks Meli up making her scream , I put Suko on the bed and she also wails. Weeh! Their father will attend to them , I go to the bathroom.
Kabelo : "Aibo baby!"
Me : "You brought them here so face it daddy!" I close the door and lock.
After my shower , I find the bedroom empty so I get dressed then make the bed and clean around the room before going to the kitchen. Approaching the lounge , I hear music playing ; I peak and it's Kabelo and his daughters dancing while singing along to some songs. I take out my phone and take a video.
Nonto : "Mama! I made you breakfast." I quickly put my phone away and smile at Nonto.
Me : "How old are you again? Usuthinta istofu sami?" She rolls her eyes.
Nonto : "Aibo mama! I'm 12 , in grade 6!" She says dramatically and I roll my eyes.
Me : "I'm joking then , thank you so much baby." I kiss her forehead then nose and cheeks , she giggles squealing. She made me pancakes with some tea.
Nonto : "Mahh!" I laugh and let her go.

Kabelo received a call a few minutes ago and his mood suddenly changed , he looks grumpy now.
Me : "Are you okay?" The twins were asleep and Nonto was in her room also napping. He glances at me then stare at the screen again , he keeps pinching the bridge of his nose.
Kabelo : "The call was from Makhulu , she wants us to come home since she held a meeting with everyone."
Me : "Oh?"
Kabelo : "I'm just not ready to see that man I call my father and his stupid wife. I haven't forgotten what they did and I'm definitely still gonna get my revenge." I cringe at how cold he sounds right now.
Me : "When do we leave then?"
Kabelo : "That's what I'm battling with , I'm thinking of not going."
Me : "Well you can't baby , atleast do it for Makhulu."
Kabelo : "Yeah yeah! Fine , we leave tonight cause we going to the farms." I nod and hug him , he holds me back tightly and kisses my head.
