This story draws the true picture of our African homes. I am proud of who Makarena turned out to be and what she represents. I however fear for her, I fear she might be resented by other women who feel the need to please the mother in law. Does she have the heart to stand it?

Typical society needs and wants; always shouting it is time, it is time...but, nothing beats a happy ending. Looking forward to your next masterpiece. Keep shining, beautiful author!

Violet Kemunto

As beautiful as the writer..❤️

Feels good to see the transition of how/what a good wife has to endure to fit in the society. The end gave me a sigh of relive as she narrated how Macarena made it and stood for herself to earn the society's respect . Mother in laws should be kind to their daughter in laws in the society. I love the way the writer took us through the tea farming techniques, it brought back some good memories from the past. I enjoyed the story ❤️.

How amazing is the imagery and great notations in this well written story. I have walked with Ratemo's wife and I am so elated she gave birth to a baby girl and swore she will have better than she ever did. I also love how you have depicted the reality on the ground. How its normally the bosses that get all the bonus leaving behind the people that have put in the work. May our daughters make us proud like how Makarena did to the Ratemo's

Such a beautiful piece of a true African story. Would love to someday get to know if Makarena succeeded in being a good daughter-in-law to her mother-in-law. "At some point, a girl wants to get married. At some point, the society expects a woman to get married" When I grow up, I would love to be a Kemunto. Such a good daughter-in-law. A good wife to Ratemo. A good mother to Makarena. "My daughter will not have to struggle with hard chores to show her mother-in-law that she's a good daughter-in-law. Because my daughter is well schooled. She's well educated. I made sure of that." I'm in love with Kemunto for ensuring Makarena treads softly in the paths she chooses to. She must be soo proud of her mother this one. We all need a Kemunto in our lives. May we be them. May we raise them. May we mentor them Kemuntos.

This story is a true reflection of what women go through in African homesteads . Very beautifully written ❤️

The captivity in every line. Can almost taste the tears rolling down Kemunto's face as she receives the few notes from her mother-in-law, after all that hard work. But as suckers for happy endings we are, her child Makarena does her proud. Amazing read as always. A must read for sure.

George Kenga

A well narrated story of not just resilience but also fate of being a woman in the African setting. The story confronts an ages-old motif of mother-in-law verses daughter-in-law conflict. A nice reading with a happy ending.
