Trevor never disappoints when it comes to putting an outfit for Madifako together; he knows how to make her look and feel good and she knew that that is one activity he enjoys which will be a good distraction for some time.
Madifako sat in the hot bath and allowed herself to morph into the plotting self she had promised to never reveal again but Maggy was now pushing her to it. Madifako decided that before the end of the night she will have accessed Trevor's phone to delete Maggy's message and number. Secondly, she is going to attempt to mend fences with Motlatjo and failure thereof Motlatjo will have to take the back seat because this whole thing was clearly threatening the prospects of getting married yet again...and THAT is not going to happen. Madifako shouted,"Baby, could you pass me my phone please?!"
Trevor brought the phone and got back to what he was busy with. Madifako dialled her best friend's number and it rang several times then was hung up. She knew that Motlatjo was upset with her and wished she had given her a chance before making her own conclusions about her. It upset her and she decided on sending a text:
"Chomi, I hope this thing is not going to come between us. We have been through so much for us to lose each other over MM. I love you and would not want to lose you but also understand that you are hurt. Please call me as soon as you regain your strength. I need you!"
Motlatjo responded to the text with a "Sharp!"
That response was good enough for Madifako, she understood her best friend and knew that when she feels better things will go back to some form of normality.
Trevor popped in the bathroom to give Madifako a towel, "Finish up baby, we need to get going."
Madifako got out of the bath and found what looked like a matching outfit to what Trevor was already wearing. A pair of jeans with a white long sleeved shirt complimented by a pair of red heels (Trevor had red sneakers on)...Madifako found that all too cute and smiled as she got ready to meet the woman carrying her future husband's baby!
The drive to CoFi at Savannah Mall from Bendor Park was shorter than usual thought Madifako and by the time they parked in front of the restaurant her heart started beating in her throat. She realized then that she was actually not quite ready for this. "Trevor, I am not sure about this hey?"
"Baby, I am here with you and I am sure about this. Trust ME!"
Trevor and Madifako walked into the restaurant hand in hand and as they approached a table where a gorgeously glowing young Zulu girl was seated; she raised her eyes from the menu and when she saw the two in front of her she said,"Oh hell NO Trevor Mkhabela! When you said you will not be alone I did not think you meant this! Are you kidding me?! What is this?" Trevor tried to calm Mbali down but the Shaka Zulu in her had come out to play.
"Uyangijwayela wena Trevor. You sweet talk me to come to Polokwane only for you to come to me walking hand in hand with another woman? Is this the cowardice behavior I heard about Limpopo men? Sorry sisi, I don't know who you are in my man's life but him and I have been together for two years now and we are having a baby. I am here to discuss the plan of informing our parents about the pregnancy and arrange for lobola negotiations...Hey wena Trevor is this the Tsonga polygamous issue you hinted that we should talk about when I got here? Haibo imihlolo ka James?!"
Living in a province that's considered rural and poor, the hardships faced force one to seek and rely on LOVE to survive and for me...that love comes from the ART in LIMPOPO

"Yes, I just don't recognize the name...she says she is Maggy Mudau. I will call her tomorrow morning. Right now, I just want to be with my beautiful wife-to-be since I have missed her so much. Come here and give daddy some sugar.
Madifako's temperature had risen to an all time high so much so that Trevor had to ask if she is okay as he was hugging and kissing her.
"Are you alright love? Why are you so hot?"
"I am suddenly feeling very feverish Trevor I don't know why?"
That was the best lie she could think of because there was no way that she was going to explain that she knows Maggy Mudau all too well. Her mind raced trying to figure out how in the world Maggy got Trevor's number and why is she trying to ruin her life?! Ok, she understood where Maggy was coming from but really, could she not handle this issue with her husband and leave Trevor out of it? Madifako's mind was all over the place.
"Trevor, please run me a hot bath with some lavender salts I need to get better for dinner later." Trevor obliged. The moment he went into the bathroom Madifako picked up the phone and dialled Maggy Mudau.
"The nerve you have to call me wena sfebe! (You bitch)"
"Maggy, I think you need to calm down and we really make time to sit and talk woman to woman and leave people who are not involved out of this."
"Oh, so NOW you want to talk woman to woman when shit has hit the fan? You did not think of me when you were busy snatching my man from me; worse of it all you are the worst friend to your skank of a friend as well that not only did you take your client's husband but you also took your best friend's boyfriend all at once. Ya ne, you are some piece of trash and let me tell you something Madifako this bus stops here with me. This is the last time you get into someone's life and make a mess of it. You don't know me girly...I am Maggy Mudau and I am not afraid to fight you every way possible. You don't know me bitch, I come from Nzhelele my dear I will work on you in ways you will never imagine. Pray your ancestors are ready for the challenge. Maanda is my husband and he is not going to leave me for a Pedi trash like you without a fight. Tell your stupid boyfriend what you have been doing with your legs in your spare time before I do." Maggy hung up and Madifako was shook by that conversation. There was something very scary about Maggy's threat...what did she mean she will work on her in ways she will never imagine? Madifako could not help but think Maggy is going to bewitch her...she could not afford to be cursed by some woman because of a man she got careless with for just one night. She was very unsettled but she vowed that Trevor is never going to find this out and she is going to do all she can to make sure he doesn't.
"Baby, your bath is ready"
"Thank you love. I just want to soak myself and gather strength for later. You can pick out an outfit for me."

A Love Nest in Limpopo (14)
Madifako could not take it anymore and she hung up. This felt like a scene from a horror movie and she needed to pause and take a breather. She sat down on her couch with her face in her hands wondering why she even picked up Maanda's call on that dreadful day of the hotel in the first place. She was yanked out of her thoughts by Trevor walking into the house.
"Hey Babe. How have you been?" Madifako desperately wanted to confess it all to Trevor to relieve the pain she was feeling in her heart.
"I've been okay thanks and you?"
"I am not so fine love, do you have a moment to talk?"
"Ohhh not you again..." thought Madifako, "Yeah sure Trev, what's up?"
"Remember I told you that Mbali will be in town over the weekend to discuss the pregnancy?"
"Yeah..."
"Well she is in town NOW and she said she wanted to surprise me blah blah blah...So, I did not want to get too much into that so I suggested we meet at a neutral place tonight for supper and I still want you to come with as I will be introducing her to my fiance."
Madifako felt hot in the most obscure place...her armpits...she could not take the stress anymore.
"Ok Trevor, but do you think that's a wise move going there with me? It sounds like Mbali believes that you two are still an item..."
"That's what I want to correct and it's important for you to be there because if that child is indeed mine he or she will be raised by me and her with you as the step parent. We cannot leave it for later."
"Alright Trevor, do what you deem fit."
"Thanks my love, let me call her and tell her we will meet at CoFi Savannah in the next hour and half."
As Trevor was on the line in the other room, Madifako wanted to jump out of the window and RUN! She wanted to talk to Motlatjo about this but remembered that she and her best friend were fast approaching "ENEMYFONTEIN." The thought of her losing her friend over Maanda made her want to cry. Madifako quickly thought that maybe going with Trevor to CoFi would make her an audience in someone else's drama and shifting focus from her own. Besides, she would really like to see this woman who has been taunting her relationship with Trevor for two years now.
Trevor came back to the living room with a raised eyebrow.
"What is it Trev?"
"I am not too sure. So, I called Mbali and secured our appointment and fortunately I also told her that I will not be alone."
"Were you clear with her that it's me you are coming with?"
"Uhm not really..."
"Ahhh Trev, you know that's going to be dramatic but anyway...Why that look on your face?"
"Well I received a message from some strange number and this person asks to meet me saying she knows it's a meeting I would not want to miss."
"Did she say who she was?"
"Yes, I just don't recognize the name...she says she is Maggy Mudau. I will call her tomorrow morning. Right now I just want to be with my beautiful wife-to-be since I have missed her so much. Come here and give daddy some sugar."
"Hey Babe. How have you been?" Madifako desperately wanted to confess it all to Trevor to relieve the pain she was feeling in her heart.

"I am really sorry...I need to get out of here! I will call you again and we can make a proper arrangement to meet and talk thoroughly about this. Right now I just want to go home."
Madifako was torn between Maggy and Motlatjo because her best friend was in the bedroom screaming at someone on her phone whilst her client was crying and struggling dismally to compose herself. Madifako decided to release Maggy and focus on her best friend.
As Madifako walked into her bedroom where Motlatjo was now swearing into the handset speaker telling whomever on the end of the line to tell his wife to stay the hell away from her before she does something she is going to regret...Madifako only assumed that it was Maanda and she walked out of the bedroom nauseous at the thought of him.
Motlatjo joined Madifako in her kitchen and it was only then that Madifako noticed the horribly swollen blue-black and red left eye that Motlatjo had. "Oh my friend, you need to see the doctor, that eye does not look right."
"To hell with that I am going to my house to meet Maanda to give him a piece of my mind. He will have to take me to the doctor; I will see you later Fako...and I am sorry for everything!" Motlatjo drove off like a maniac leaving Madifako in a mess of a house with remnants of a complicated story. Her small coffee table was broken and there was broken glass on the floor as well which she had to move furniture to clean up. The house looked a mess and Madifako swallowed the lump in her throat which promised a flood of tears that she was not ready to release because crying was clearly becoming a norm.
After the mini Spring-Cleaning Madifako thought to check up on Motlatjo and gave her a call. The phone did not ring more than twice and a sobbing voice answered the phone.
"Chomi..."
"Motlatjo, ke eng? (What is it?)
"Madifako I really cannot do this anymore. Maanda is going to call you shortly because there is clearly something you two must talk about."
"Motlatjo, what are you saying? You are confusing me. Maanda and I have nothing to talk about. Can you just tell me what's going on please"
Motlatjo hung up without responding to Madifako's plea and as if on cue Maanda Mudau called.
"What is it?"
"Madifako please don't hang up...I need to talk to you."
"Maanda, I seriously have nothing to say to you because all you have brought to my life is havoc."
"I know but the problem I have now is that I am hopelessly in love with you and have decided that you are the one I want to be with. I should have handled the situation better but I realize that there is no time like the present. I have ended things with Motlatjo and for the first time in years I was blatantly honest with my wife and told her that I want you. I completely understand if you want nothing to do with me but you have inspired me to do things right. I will wait for you Madifako...I will wait!"
Madifako could not take it anymore and she hung up.

A Love Nest In Limpopo (12)
Motlatjo fell onto the couch and turned pale. “Madifako,
Maanda is that guy I was secretly seeing and was not able to tell you who he is
because he is married. Maanda ke motho waka mokgotse.” (Maanda is my boyfriend friend)
Madifako could not believe what her best friend has just
said. They both sat next to each other staring at the television but seeing
nothing. Motlatjo put her hand on Madifako’s thigh and said, “My friend, you
need to go and see a doctor because the last time I was with Maanda I got a
vaginal reaction which forced me to see Dr. McNeal the gynecologist and I await
my results because we suspected a serious STD.”
“What? Why did you never tell me this?”
“I was embarrassed my friend and I did not know that you
were also involved with my man.”
“I am not involved with that sick man, I got caught up by
emotion and got drunk and lost all logic. I feel sick!” Madifako dashed to the
toilet and threw up. She could not believe what was happening. When she got out
Motlatjo had returned to the house from her car to collect 2 bottles of wine…they
both needed it! The girls sat on the floor and drowned their sorrows in wine
whilst sharing stories they should have shared way before tonight. They cried
and cursed and laughed and cried some more.
“Have you taken a pregnancy test Madifako?”
“Not yet. The reason I called you was to tell you about this
and for you to be here with me when I take the test. I have it now.”
“So what are you waiting for?”
“Morning…”
“It’s 2am that’s morning enough in my books go take that
pee!”
Madifako took the pregnancy test and it came out negative.
Relief never felt that good and she was grateful that she was not pregnant. Her
concern now was Motlatjo’s results which meant that she had another issue to
worry about. “How did we get here Motlatjo?”
“Well, when Maanda asked me for my friends’ numbers to try
and recruit them to sell Forever Living products I did not think that part of
his recruitment meant sleeping with my friends. I am upset with him my friend, I
just want to call that stupid fool and give him a piece of my mind.”
“No don’t…just walk away from him and forget that he even
existed.”
“I wish it was that easy because I love him Fako.” Motlatjo
broke into tears and cried with her head on Madifako’s lap until they both
passed out! The alarm went off at 08:00 reminding Madifako of her first
appointment at 09:00. She hurried to the bedroom and started getting ready for
her client. She woke Motlatjo up, who seemed to be carrying two heads as she
could not get up from the floor. “Yohhh mokgotse ke sa tagilwe. Ke nako mang? (My friend I am still drunk. What time is it?)
“Quarter past 8 and I have a client coming at 09:00. Let me
jump into the shower.”
“Ok, I will not be going into the office feeling like this.
Let me call my boss and excuse myself.” Madifako jumped into the shower and got
ready for her client. Motlatjo went to the kitchen to prepare a concoction that
will help with the hangover they both were probably feeling. As she was busy in
the kitchen there was a knock on Madifako’s door and Madifako shouted from her
bedroom for Motlatjo to ‘get the door please.’
When Motlatjo opened the door, her heart stopped beating for
a moment as she stood face to face with the woman who has threatened her before
to stay out of her way. Maggy Mudau could not believe her eyes either because
Motlatjo was the last woman she expected to find in a space she considered
therapeutic. Maggy saw RED and all the anger she ever felt in the 15 years of her
unhappy marriage with Maanda came gushing back to life and Maggy lost it.
Without even saying anything to Motlatjo she lunged into the house fist first
which landed on Motlatjo’s left eye and all hell broke loose. Motlatjo and
Maggy had a piece of each other for what felt like hours until Madifako came
running into the lounge shocked at the chaos that was in her house with her
best friend on top of her client exchanging blows. Madifako managed to get
between the ladies and asked: “Ladies!!! What the hell? Stop it before I call
the police on both of you. Motlatjo what is going on here?”
“Well, you should be asking this bitch who just started
attacking me for nothing.”
Maggy was hyper ventilating with her eyes locked onto
Motlatjo and said, “Madifako, I am sorry for this and I am not attacking this
whore for nothing but this woman has given me grief in my marriage for some
time now.” Madifako’s worst nightmare was unfolding right before her eyes in
her lounge. The suspicion that Maggy Mudau could be Maanda’s wife was confirmed
but the problem was that she was attacking her best friend not knowing that she
too should be getting a piece of this violent pie.
Madifako asked Motlatjo to go to the bedroom so that she
could have a word with her client. Motlatjo obliged cursing at the top of her
voice while Maggy was trying to put her arm back into what has suddenly become
a sleeveless dress which was torn by Motlatjo. Madifako asked Maggy to sit down
and went to the kitchen to get her a glass of water. Maggy sat down and as she
looked at Madifako tears gathered in her eyes and cried as she was apologizing profusely.
“Madifako I am so sorry…I don’t know what came over me. When
I saw that bitch…”
“Uhm that bitch is a friend of mine and I don’t appreciate
you coming into my house and wreaking the havoc that you did in my space.”
“I am really sorry…I need to get out of here! I will call
you again and we can make a proper arrangement to meet and talk thoroughly
about this. Right now I just want to go home.”

As he drove out and she waved him goodbye at the door her cellphone notified her of an email and it was Maggy Mudau acknowledging the receipt of the quotation and securing her next appointment for tomorrow. She wished she could decline that appointment but couldn't...she needed to decipher who this woman is and what her mission was...Madifako ran a bath, soaked herself and got ready to visit some of her clients at their homes.
After several house calls for the day Madifako passed by Clicks Cycad and bought Clear Blue pregnancy test that she once saw advertised on television with a special feature of estimating the duration of the pregnancy (She also secretly wished it could tell who the father is...) She was suddenly feeling sick, cramps in her stomach, nipples sensitive and a bit nauseous...all signs of pregnancy. She dreaded taking the test but when she got home she read the leaflet in the pregnancy test box which advised the best time to take the test would be with the first urine of the day first thing in the morning. She opted to wait for tomorrow morning and she snuggled in her bed and played some music then she dosed off and slept for the remainder of the afternoon into the night.
Madifako was woken from her sleep by a phone call from Motlatjo.
"Mokgotse ke bona gore o lekile go nleletja mogala" (Friend, I see that you tried to call me)
"Yes I did, I need you!"
"Ok I am leaving Meropa Casino from the comedy show, I will pass by your house now on my way home."
"Sharp"
Madifako checked the time, it was 10pm and she got out of the bed headed to her lounge and watched some television whilst waiting for Motlatjo. Motlatjo did not take long to get to Madifako's house. She walked in singing at the top of her voice and excited to see her friend.
"Ke eng chomi? (What's wrong friend?) Why do you look like you have seen a ghost?"
"Eish my friend I am in a mess of a situation."
"Talk to me darling, you know I am the fixer."
"I don't even know where to start. Trevor asked me to marry him."
Motlatjo jumped up and down ululating and broke into a wedding song...
"No wait Motlatjo there's more. The day before Trevor proposed I was with another man."
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, I slept with another man...worse of it all, without a condom."
"What? Who is this man? Do I know him?"
"I don't think you know him. His name is Maanda."
Motlatjo's eyes widened and she asked, "He is not Maanda Mudau right?"
"Oh Motlatjo his name IS Maanda Mudau."
Motlatjo fell onto the couch and turned pale. "Madifako, Maanda is that guy I was secretly seeing and was not able to tell you who he is because he is married. Maanda ke motho waka mokgotse."(Maanda is my boyfriend friend.)
