Ah yes, it is the month of love! Roses, chocolates, romantic dinners,ย quality time with that special someone and holiding hands, who doesn't love love? And who isn't looking for love? Whether single, in a relationship,ย engaged, or happily married, it's a human need we want fulfilled- to love and be loved.
And everybody wants a happy ending! And everybody loves a heart-warming love-story. With it being the month of love, it seems everyone is looking for love. For the singletons, engaged and those living their dream of wedded-bliss, ย we all come to find that the journey is not paved with roses.
Based on the award-winning novel of the same name by Cynthia Jele, Happiness Is A Four-Letter Word tells the story ofย three friends. The romance drama chronicles the lives of Nandi, Zaza and Princess and their journey of love and self-discovery.ย Meet three gorgeous friends โ each with their own love storyย and understanding of what โhappinessโ is:
Zaza (Khanyi Mbau)- is (un)happily married with kids. She has it all- everything a woman could ask for- except โloveโ. For her, โas a married woman, if youโre gonna cheat, you're gonna cheat with someone who is married.โ With a husband that is always on the road, Zaza falls into the arms of "love".
Nandi (Mmabatho Montsho) โ with just a few short months before she weds; andย on the fast-track to the top at her law firm,ย Nandi seems to have it all in the bag. But when a long-lost love re-enters her life, Nandi finds herself at a crossroads in both love and work.
Princess (Renate Stuurman) โ like most of us, Princess simply loves โloveโ. A thriving business-owner and doing very well for herself- her life gets shaken and turned upside downย in more ways than one when love comes knocking on her door.
What we all discoverย about love and happiness is that different traits carry different weights in relationships. To answer the question of what doesย โhappinessโ mean to you? For these three women, the words โdutyโ, โriskโ, โworkโ, deepโ, โlustโ, โmaskโ, โliesโ and โtornโ ย come to mind. And each one finds out for themselves that itโs not easy to define.
