In his post, Paseka says that his character is coming to shake things up in Omphile’s life. Omphile is Lindiwe’s little sister, who has had a rough Christmas thinking her father would show up. The year has been rough on her as she went through a lot because of her family. The Ngema sisters have a thing for bad boys, as Lindiwe is married to a convict who used to dupe people out of their money. Will Paseka’s character make her fall in love with him?

On the other hand, Dintle is still following up on leads about her husband’s killer. With every lead she gets turning into toast, the last thing she needs is a family drama. How is she related to this pastor who was plotting with her cousin. With the Kubekas covering their tracks on Quinton’s death and Lindiwe and Nhamulo trying to protect their secret about how they made Ngema disappear, it’s going to be a lot of drama.
Lindiwe feels that they should give Mdala the benefit of the doubt and believe that he has forgiven Nhamulo. It’s not a secret that Lindiwe has always wanted the soft life and would do anything to chase clout. Even with many red signs her husband showed her when they were dating; she still married him because of the money and a promise of a nice life.
