Innocent Before Him 💼

(At Scelo's house)

Bongani just came back from the therapist, there's being a lot of change since he started talking with him. And today he feels like it's time he have a talk with his mom. She found her sitting reading the newspaper

Bongani: Do you love dad?

Mpume was startled. She didn't really expect this especially from him

Mpume: I didn't see you or heard you coming

Bongani: I am sorry

Mpume: Come sit down so that we can talk

It was actually the first time for them to talk since this whole drama started, she was so scared she didn't know what to say

Mpume: And to answer your question, yes I love him and a lot. I regret everything I did, i shouldn't have done that

Bongani: Then why did you do it?

Mpume: (sighed) Feelings for the better of me baby but believe me when I say I am sorry

Bongani: I am tired of fighting with you also this fight between you and dad must stop. Michael is a kid but it will affect him please mom do it for us, solve this and if it doesn't work out consider divorce. I won't blame you

Mpume was shocked to what her son said, she knew how much she loves her husband but is love enough sometimes?

(At Hlobi's apartment)

Hlobi was still hurt by the way Manqoba dismissed her, she didn't want to think much to it but she was hurt. She was on the phone with her mother

MaShenge: But Hlobi you know your father won't be happy about this relationship 

Hlobi: I know mom but what if he is the one for me

MaShenge: I don't know about that nana. Just don't fall pregnant again before you are sure that he is the one

Hlobi: I won't mom and please try and talk with dad that way he will be less angry when I tell him 

MaShenge: I will tell him. I just want you to be happy and if he makes you happy I won't stop you 

Hlobi: Thank you mom. I love you

MaShenge: I love you too nana

Hlobi disconnected the call and she thought about what his mom said about Manqoba being the one. She had a feeling that she must not give all of her heart because this love might turn sour. Hlobi knew that she was young and Manqoba is matured. She thought about the responsibility and being a wife at a young age, everything was becoming too much for her
