"Mother, the business had been going well. You don't have to keep on worrying about things that haven't happened yet!" Rutendo's voice sounded in the room and Tapiwa, who was listening in on the conversation, raised her brows in wonder.
What were these two talking about?' she wondered as she looked at the middle-aged woman whom she could still recognize even after not seeing her for a very long time.
Tapiwa never expected that her mother had aged and, despite being older, probably because life had treated her well, she looked much better compared to her peers.
Her mother was a pretty-looking woman. Another reason why her father took her in as a concubine in the first place.
She was too meek and obedient. It made it easier for anyone to manipulate her, to be honest.
She doesn't remember ever being a day when their father was angry at her mother. There was something about her that just made those who saw her cool down.
