“IYHEEEEEEEEEIIIII’’ And a very long burp were the only things the Queen got as a reponce from Gogo. Followed by a very frightened look from Gogo the Queen had no choice but to worry. ‘’Ao Gogo, o ka re rasetsa wa ba wa re bohlela hakaaka hosena nko hotswa lemina?... Mahlabeng a makanakana ao keleng ho ona wena o fetohile semumu haotswe ka taba’’ with tears taking a convoy to her chicks and a very tight grip on Dibuseng’s hand the Queen said. Dibuseng is one of the Queen’s servants who was forever complaining, in her head she went ‘’He ntja e eka ntiisa letsoho hakaaka, ketla e tshella tjhefu e nnyele hae ntsebe hantle hhhhmmm’’ but with a caring look in her face. Of course that’s part of her ‘’Job Description’’ but she went around saying things like ‘’Wa tseba nthwe kene ke e etsetsa molemo ke e thusa e shwa e tshwerwe ke mokgohlane’’.
Gogo looked at the bones with a doubtful face and gazed her eyes back to the Queen with a sad look and gathered the ancestral bones and placed them back in the leather bag ‘’ IYHEEEEEEEEEIIIII KU ENZE NJANI SIMAKADE’’ she loudly said while shaking the leather bag vigorously ‘’WA HLODIYA MAHN, HOBANENG HAOSA BATLE HO NTHUSA OSA TLOHELE FELA HONA LE HORE O NKETSETSE MELEKO E O NKETSETSANG YONA HONA JWALE’’ the queen jumped in before Gogo could finish whatever she was going to say after that. Gogo started getting pissed off and burst like a sewerage pipe “HO PHAPHA HO HA HAO KE HONA HO ETSANG HORE BADIMO BARE HO NNA NGWANA ENWA EO OTLO MOTSWALA KE MOLEKO FELA OTLO TLISANG MADIMABE SETJHABENG SENA SA RONA…….. BARE RE TLAMEHILE HO MMOLAYA HO PHOLOSA BOKAMOSO BA SETJHABA SA RONA’’ Gogo said and put her hand on her mouth to stop herself from talking. It was then that……

The girls who went ahead of the envoy to tell Ntswaki the bad news got to the river but there was no sign of her. They looked around, up and down the stream but Ntswaki was nowhere to be seen. When they were all ready to give up, one of the girls saw grass moving as though something is hiding there. They got curious and they decided to go and check. They were all scared but curiosity got the better of them. They got there and they couldn’t believe what they saw with their eyes. Ntswaki was not there, they only found a full bucket of water. The girls were Nthati, Lerato and Maipato. They were her childhood friends but their characters were very different from hers. I will tell you more about them at a later stage. “Jonna mme weee!!!”, Lerato whispered. They were now worried that something bad might have happened to her. “Eseng Ntswaki o ipolaile lona? Mohlomong hona le motho ya fihlileng a mo phethela taba tse?”, Nthati asked with her eyes wide open and sparkling as though she was abou...

It was a very glorious day for the Ditheko Kingdom. ”MONNA MAHLOMOLA BONA MONA, TSAMAYA O KENELLE MOTSENG MONA O JWETSE SETJHABA SOHLE HORE NGWANA WAKA O HLAHILE EBILE KE MOSHANYANA. O BA MEME BOHLE HORE BATLE BATLO KETEKA LENNA LE BA LELAPA LAKA. DIJO LE JWALA DI TENG, BA TSUBANG KGOMO YA FATSHE LE BONA OBA JWETSE HORE KE MANTLETSENTLETSE” The King sent his envoy. “Ho lokile Morena, ere ke kgobokanye mahlana aka mme ke etse jwalo” The messenger replied and did not waste any time, he went around to gather around his crew to carry out the task at hand. They took a drum with some sticks and composed a song on the spot. That was one of Mahlomola’s best qualities and that made the King very fond of him. He is very creative, you could give him a simple task but the outcome is going to be something beyond your imagination. “HO TLETSE MONYAKA HO TLETSE MONYAKA… KWANA BORENENG KWANA BORENENG… RE TSWALETSWE MORA RE TSWALETSWE MORA… BORENENG HA DITHEKO BORENENG HA DITH...

Back at the house preparations had already started. The King was so happy about the arrival of his second son into this world, he was boasting in pride amongst his council men. “Ke entse ngwana monna thaka ntatae, Kepi ntho etlo le tjhekelang baradi Mosenene sedula mokoting hae kgore Bosiu le motshehare o dula ale malala a laotswe Lepe se rathang pakeng tsa mangwele Tsena tsohle le di botse baradi lapeng Ha osena baradi o botse mosadi mma bana Mohlomong a ka o phethela palenyana” He said, followed by a brief chuckle. Pacing up and down praising his newly born son with excitement written all over his face in capital letters. Having a son meant a lot to him because it meant the ancestors where in his side. They had many sleepless nights desperately praying for a child. They struggled conceiving a child for so long that they no longer had the luxury of praying for a child of any specific gender. The fact that he got a boy made him very grateful that he felt he had t...
