Mapitsi returned to Turfloop without warning him, she doesn't wanna leave and she's living under his roof again.
He was angry with her for not notifying him and for leaving his son Tbose alone in a foreign country.

MEIKIE CHEATED ON Meikie attempted to kill his mistress and baby-mama, Mantuli, and his son - Kwaito when she found out that he cheated on her again.
Audiences have been expecting John to cheat again as he's been cheating on Meikie for years with several women.
He's cheated on Meikie (Harriet Manamela) with Mantuli (Dieketseng Mnisi), Charity etc.
Viewers predicted this storyline when John (Africa Tsoai) hired Melita to work in his supermarket.
They spotted his wandering eye undressing Melita and knew that it'll only be a matter of time.

MAPITSI'S MARRIAGE ON THE ROCKS Viewers are also worried that Mapitsi and Tbose's marriage will end up in divorce because they just got married and are living different lives.
The actor Cornet Mamabolo who plays the role of Tbose has taken a break from the soapie to focus on his business in real-life.
Mapitsi (Mogau Motlhatswi) returned to Turfloop after she got a job offer in Turfloop .
She also revealed to her best friend - Elizabeth (Amanda Manku) that she was miserable overseas and that she doesn't see herself living there.

I was like, "Isn t this the same makoti you welcomed and moved in? Isn t she moving back home? Why does she need to consult ?" Then I remembered he s a scallywag and a cheater.
