On The Other Woman
"I tried to talk to
him...a deep conversation in the dark where we could bare our souls to each
other. I asked why he wouldn't let Anita go? What was it about her? With tears
in my eyes and desperate to save my home, I was willing to learn, to become
like her if that was what he wanted. If it was the sex, I asked him to teach me
her moves"
“I was sitting in the
bedroom one day. There was a bottle of Dettol in the bathroom and a thought
came, very strong, “Just drink it and die. What’s the point? The whole world is
laughing at you right now. Just end it.”
PS: You can even purchase the book with MTN or

On Her Mum's Death
On Her Mum's Death
"Fear gripped me and I
could barely move. In movies, you sometimes see a scene with someone burning
from head to toe. Everyone ran back trying to figure out who it was. It took a
moment to realize it was my mum. I stood glued to the spot watching her
burn."
