MY MISTRESS WANTS a BABY TOO!

I have had a girlfriend for the past two years. The problem is not that I am cheating on my wife. The issue is that my side chick now wants a child of her own. I told her I cannot sire any children out of wedlock. As much as I am cheating on my wife I still respect her enough to not have children outside. My fear is that this girl may stop taking her birth control and fall pregnant. What should I do?

TETE RESPONDS

Lol! Forgive me for laughing out loud but I just had to. It is worrisome that you do not see a problem with your cheating. My brother, stop wasting your time and that of your so-called mistress’ time. You are a married man who is clearly not willing to let anything jeopardise his marriage yet you are playing with a bomb in the dark. The fact that you are even talking about birth control means you are having unprotecte­d activities with a woman outside your marriage. (Why, my brother, why?) Wake up, shape up and live up to the vows you made to your wife.

GOBLINS ATTACKING MY BABY

My late father had goblins that we used to feed as children. We inherited his businesses and unfortunat­ely his little devils too! I do not remember what they looked like because I was young but my older brother does from the discussion­s we sometimes have. When my father died, his goblins began to wreak havoc. They would steal food, slap us and later on they started killing chickens. For the past four months my two-year-old daughter cries at night and wakes up bruised. No one else lives in the house and I cannot tell anyone about what is happening because of our social setting. I need help!

TETE RESPONDS

A baby that does not cry, dies from being unattended to(Mwana asingachem­e anofira mumbereko). Be like your baby who cries out for help when discomfort visits him/her. You need to confide in someone who can help you solve this dilemma for both you and your child. Your child could be crying for other reasons and the bruises could be a sign of a problem that is not spiritual. As a matter of urgency, talk to someone and get the help that you need to be freed from this bondage.

God speed!

NIGHTMARE LANDLORD

I found a room at a house in a highdensit­y suburb as a young lady without much furniture. After a few days, I discovered that my landlord was and still is a witchdocto­r. I am a Christian but I did not quite mind as long as I was living peacefully. Sometimes I find the whole house wet and smelling of herbs. When I ask, I am told it is a cleansing ritual. Most times, I am woken up by strange animal noises. Help me!

TETE RESPONdS

Just move out my dear! If you find a room, pay rent for it and it does not meet your expectatio­ns . . . move out. What happens at that house belongs in that house. I really have nothing more to say to you other than advise you to take time to find out about your next home before paying rent.

All the best.
