Describing the last three months as rough for the Seakamelas is a gross understatement. We saw Kwaito (Clement Maosa) come to terms with his paternal roots, while his sister Pretty (Lerato Marabe) started grappling with her own daddy issues. All this while their mom MaNtuli (Dieketseng Mnisi) desperately tried to keep her family together. “It has been a rollercoaster,” says Clement. “Kwaito went on a mission to find his father, only to learn that he had passed away the year before.” Left with more questions, Kwaito was on the verge of taking a DNA test to make sense of his life. But, as Clement says, “Deep inside he knew that he is indeed a Seakamela” and he opted out of the DNA test.

BOOK OF LIFE

Kwaito now sets his sights on the future and vows to finish writing the book his dad started. “Those manuscripts that he found in March in an old suitcase are the only thing Kwaito has of his father. Kwaito can once again pursue his passion as a writer and, at the same time, tell the world about who his father was,” says Clement.

But his father’s name isn’t the only thing motivating Kwaito. There’s also good money, should the book get published. And more money brings Kwaito that much closer to finally giving his mom what she’s always desired – her dream home. Overall, Kwaito’s life is on track. Sadly, Pretty isn’t as lucky…
