After months of job hunting, ac-counting graduate Soka (Linda Nxumalo) was recently hired at a local gangster’s start-up company. “Waking up in the morning to go to the office is a huge confidence boost for Soka. For some time, he was defeated following countless rejection letters from various accounting firms and now there’s a pep in his step. He is genuinely happy,” explains Linda.

With a new outlook on life, Soka is looking to make a few changes and that begins with his relationship with his girlfriend Ona (Nefisa Mkhabela). “When Soka and Ona started dating late last year, they agreed that they’d wait until she was ready to have sex, but this fortnight, Soka implies that they should take their romance to the next level,” explains Linda. Ona is taken aback by Soka’s suggestion and his recent transformation. “Lately, Soka has an ego. It’s as if he is someone new and Ona notices the shift in his character and she questions his intentions, which soon leads to the demise of their relationship,” adds the actor.
