My dad and mom was sitting with me and my heart was beating fast cause dad looked serious.
Me: am I in trouble?
Dad: No
Mom: Remember when I said you my princess?
I nodded.
Dad: Well you our princess. Like a real princess. My job is being a king and Nyakallo is a Queen and since you our child that automatically makes you our princess.
My heart was pounding so hard, i really don't care about the politics but dad just said am they child. Like her and Nyakallo child. Like he truly believes that am theirs. Aybo I have a mother and father, who happens to be king and Queen. How good is God. I always used to pray about this and now it happening.
Mom: You too quiet.
Me: Sorry am still processing. Dad just said am your child
Dad: You have my ears, mouth, nose lips. Hair
Than he started tickling me and I laughed
Mom: Oh she has you laugh too.
I swear today is the best day of my life.
Dad: So what will you like to do. Want me to come visit you everyday or you will be comfortable staying with us.
Mom: and if its too much, your grandma says she will have you back and you can visit.
Me: Ill like to stay with you guys if that okay.
I watched them grin in happiness.
Dad: your mom has a beautiful surprise for you.
My heart was beating so fast.
Me: what is it?
Mom: Now it wouldn't be a surprise if I tell you.

Bokang
I walked into my father house and found him sitting there in darkness. He hasn't been to his office in days and I know his going through a separation with Lifuno.
Me: Ntate
Dad: Here to gloat
Me: No, here to see if we could fix things.
He laughed.
Dad: what things?
Me: Us, the family... Nyakallo
I watched him explode for the first time in my life.
Dad: Am sick and tired of everyone talking about Nyakallo!!!! .... Nyakallo this..., Nyakallo that. Its not enough that your bloody mother cheated on me with another man and 9 months later a baby girl is born. And now am must worry about her? Nurse her, feed her and love her as if she is my own while she is not. Fuck you, fuck you mom and I never want to hear her name in my life ever!!!

Bokang took out a piece of paper placed it on the table and looked at me.
Bokang: I took a piece of her hair and a piece of yours and mines submitted it. Those are the results. I took the page and looked at them and my heart smashed on my chest hard.
"99.9 a match"
I looked at my son with tears in my eyes.
Bokang: You have hated Nyakallo all her life for a mistake that our mother did. Yes she cheated on you but it was not right of you to take it out on Nyakallo. She is your daughter right to her fibre and actual being. I really don't know how you going to fix 28 years of damage but I pray she forgives. He than turned and left.
" what have I done?" I felt my head spin as I screamed in agony!!!
