Okay I knew that the Siyas rich when he payed almost thirteen million rand for Kabos baby shower and he was still left unscathed. The articles I've seen about him say that he has money, billions of it and none of it are in assets which leaves me to wonder even more about him and the rest of their family. Like Sanele, I know he owns a cyber security company and he's a genius in tech and coding but if you ask me what he does I'd say that I don't know. But nevertheless one thing that I do know is the love these men have for their children, it's beautiful to watch and do you know what's even more beautiful is the ever lasting smile on Nkanyezis face. Her world is complete and she has everything that she could have ever asked for and more, this place has transformed into her world, there's live actors and Belgian and swizz chocolate fountains, six entertainment stations Lots and lots of food and definitely lots of pink.

When Kabos family has had their fill probing and asking me questions about my marriage and my life and how sorry they are for what I've been through I take this as an opportunity to slip away to look for something that I can much on, maybe home made bobba will do.
I haven't seen Sanele since he led me In here and I try to see if I can spot him when I enter the house again.

I walk back into the house to find people are gathered together in the living room and I see Siya switch of the screen just as I get inside and everybody is just silently staring at Kabo and she's staring at Siya with this look that says that she's scared and Siya just looks angry.

"The serving stations are ready for everybody to help themselves to a meal of their choice if you could just kindy make it back into the garden, thank you."
Jabu says as she directs everybody into the garden again and I am left standing here ogling at the both of them, wondering what the hell Is happening here.

"I think I should join everybody else in the garden."
I say as I start to make my way outside.

"No I think you should stay, seems like we're going to be needing some legal advice."
Siya says as he stares straight ahead at Kabo and I stop in my tracks and I look at them both again.

Me ? I've only just got here.

"I think this is something that you should both be discussing, alone, in private."
I emphasize and Siya steps closer towards us now.

"No I need a lawyers input in this... how much jail time could one face for keeping locking away and torturing them for more than three years ?"
He asks as he stares at Kabo.

What the hell is this ?

"It depends on how good your law suit is, other than that, it could mean some serious jail time."
I answer.

As I stare between them both, quietly.

"Siya do you want me to say that I regret what I did ? I don't. I did this to protect you."

"Is this what you call protection ?"

"Yes and I would do it all over again if it means that our family gets to be okay again..."
She says and Siya goes quiet and he releases a sigh before he brushes the back of his head in frustration.

"You know that that woman was crazy, something had to be done to stop her."

"Not this way Kabo..."
He answers and now she goes quiet.

"My first mistake was getting you involved in all of this mess, you were never supposed to be exposed to any of this."

"I did this to protect you and Lubanzi, I didn't think that she'd go public about this."
She repeats.

"You do realise what this means right ? If her allegations are true, do you realise what we might be up against. You gave her money, that gives her grounds to gather a huge law suit against us and she's not going down without a fight and Lubanzi ? We actually might lose him to her... do you realise how much emo you've just given her ?"
