Secret Love

Chapter 27

Olga stared at Thabiso, Thoriso, and Rebaone with shock on her face. She had not expected to see them and was pleasantly surprised by their presence, which was in contrast to how they were feeling about her presence. Thabiso's face was pinched and his fists were clinched, while Rebaone had a stern expression and her arms crossed. Aunt Thoriso's surprise and horror could be seen in her gaping lips, while Thabiso and Rebaone's fury and unhappiness could be seen in their body language. Olga's presence had unnerved them all, as they had not expected to see her there. They had thought she was gone for good, and her sudden appearance had shocked them all.

Nobody else seemed to notice the tension in the air because the party went on around them. Olga could feel the tension between them, and it was almost palpable. She could feel the awkwardness in the air, and it was clear that none of them wanted to be there. She could sense the discomfort and the unease in the room, and it was clear that none of them wanted to talk about what was going on.

"Thoriso, Thabiso, Rebaone," she says. "H-hi," Olga exclaimed, stunned.

"What exactly is going on?" "What brings her here?" Thoriso asked in an accusatory tone, pointing her finger at Olga. Rebaone and Thabiso were deafeningly silent.

Olga is taken aback by Thoriso's attitude towards her and appears to be confused about what is going on. Thoriso's attitude towards Olga was hostile and accusing, as demonstrated by her pointing a finger at her and her confrontational tone of voice.

"Thoriso, what's the matter with you? "Why are you behaving this way towards me?" Olga questioned angrily.

"I know you know what your daughter did," Thoriso said coldly. "You can stop pretending."

"I don't know what you are talking about!" Olga exclaimed, perplexed.

Thoriso looked just about ready to attack Olga. Her face was flushed with anger, and her fists were clenched tightly at her sides. Olga could sense the tension in the air as she cautiously took a step back, her heart pounding in her chest. At that moment, Moiponi entered the room, Fezile by her side, and took a protective stance in front of Olga. "Mmangwane, please calm down...She is innocent."

"What?" Thabiso shouted in response.

"Yes, brother, I can explain everything." Moiponi shifted her gaze to Thabiso before returning it to Thoriso and Olga.

Everyone stared at Moiponi, stunned and perplexed, waiting for her to speak up. Except for Rebaone and Fezile. Olga was the most bewildered of the group.

"Ma Olga is Senzo's fiancée," Moiponi stated anxiously. "She has been living with us for a while now. And...and...and Onthatile." She struggled to pronounce the name.

Thoriso gasped in shock, and her mouth opened slightly as she stared at Moiponi in disbelief. Her anger now evaporated. Thabiso seemed as surprised as his aunt and turned to Moiponi for an explanation. "She doesn't know what Onthatile did." Moiponi sounded as if she was about to cry.

Olga looked between Moiponi and the others, her face filled with horror and disbelief. "What did Onthatile do?" She inquired softly, clearly not expecting the response she was about to get.

Olga exclaimed, her hand reaching for her mouth in amazement. She was stunned by what she had just heard. She looked around at the other people in the room, who were all shocked and outraged in varied degrees.

Onthatile then entered the room, completely oblivious of what was going on. She came to a complete halt when she spotted Rebaone, Thabiso, and Thoriso, as well as her mother, who appeared to have seen a ghost. She realised she was in big trouble now that her secret had been revealed. As if Onthatile's situation couldn't get much worse. Senzo, his other three sons, Bontle, and Thenjiwe decided to make an appearance.
