It's been a while since Malaika vanished, and the weight of her absence has taken a devastating toll on her parents, especially her father, Jeje. The man who once held his family together has become a shell of his former self, struggling to cope with the crushing reality that his little girl may never return.

In his desperation, Jeje turned to alcohol, seeking solace at the bottom of a bottle. But when does the line between grief and addiction blur? At what point does a grieving father become an alcoholic?

Jeje’s family, along with his close friend Milton, tried to intervene. They've taken matters into their own hands, attempting to limit his access to alcohol. But their efforts have only added to the heartache. Jeje, determined to drown his sorrows, has resorted to sneaking around, finding new ways to quench his unrelenting thirst.

How does one find peace when the hope of ever seeing their child again fades with each passing day? The Kintus are faced with an agonising dilemma: should they allow Jeje to drink if it’s the only thing that eases his pain?

Eunice, Malaika’s mother, remains tight-lipped about what she believes happened to their daughter, leaving Jeje haunted by the endless possibilities of what might have occurred. As the mystery deepens, so does Jeje’s dependency on alcohol. Will the truth finally come to light, and if it does, will it be enough to pull Jeje back from the brink of destruction?

The story continues to unfold on Prestige every weekday at 9:30 pm on Pearl Magic DStv Stream channel 161 and GOtv Stream channel 301.
