I come back from the gym and get in the shower. Months later, and now our new family members were moving in. It's been plus, minus six months, and my father told me a month back that they were coming to live with us.

Low-key, I'm happy about it, cause now imma have someone to chill with, and I won't have to cook as much anymore. We've had a few lunches and dinners together as a family throughout these six months and things have been going well. They are actually good people. Andiswa and I have been getting along very well, we even have our own meetups when our parents take too long to plan something. It's good man.

I was getting dressed now when my dad knocked on my door. "I'll be out in a few." I say. "Cool. I'll be in the sitting room." He says then I think he left after that cause I heard his footsteps walking away from the door. I put on my black jeans and red t-shirt. I put on red and white air force, and go brush my hair. I put on my red cap, then put on my Daniel Wellington watch. I put on my black ring on my middle finger, to complete the look, then sprayed on cologne.

I grabbed my phone and wallet then went downstairs. I get to the sitting room, but my dad immediately stands up. "Let's go." He says then I nod my head. We go to his Bentley Bentayga then he makes his way to his girls house.

"You know, a question I never asked you about this whole moving thing.... The picture of you and mamma on your bedroom wall?" I ask ending the question there.

"I guess I'll have to remove it." He says then I slowly nod my head.

"And put it where?" I ask.

"I'll see." He says then I smile a bit and shake my head. Impulsive decisions are sometimes not the best option.

"Do you plan on remarrying?" I ask. "The plan is longevity. So yes." He says then I nod my head.

"So you'll get the new family a new house? Cause that's yours and mamma's house. Not yours and Aunt Khanyisile." I say then we get to a red light. He lets out a sigh and folds his arms.

"Sims. Can I get there when I get there?" He asks.

"Just saying. The only reason I agreed to this move is cause it makes you happy. But this is disrespectful towards mama and your guys' marriage." I say. The light goes green then he carries on driving. He doesn't respond so I chuckle and look outside the window.

Honestly, I have questions about this whole move, and what the reason was, cause he knows that's mama's house. I don't know what this man is doing.

"I want to propose." He says out of the blue. I squint my eyes and look at him. "Now?" I ask. "Yes." He says then I slowly nod my head.

"That's not gonna be her house. And I don't want it being her home either." I say then he nods his head.

"Of course. This is temporary. That's your house and home. When I marry Khanyi, I'll pass the house down to you. Anyways, if it were to happen, God forbid, that I pass, the house would be yours." He says then I nod my head.
