UKUHLELA

KABANTU izingane zivame ukutshelwa indaba yezinganekwane ngomshado omdala owachitha isikhathi esiningi ekufuneni. Ngesikhathi behlezi emlilweni wabo ubusuku obunye, futhi, njengokujwayelekile, befisa lokhu noma lokho, kwavela inganekwane, ukuthi ukwazi ukuthi babefisa kangakanani ukuba izifiso zabo zijabule ukuthi uzoza ukubanika izifiso ezintathu kuphela. Babejabule futhi bengalahleki isikhathi sokubeka umnikelo wokuphefumula kafeya, umuntu omdala, enikeza izwi ngesifiso esisheshayo senhliziyo yakhe noma isisu, efisa ukuba abe namagceke amathathu we-pudding emnyama; futhi, ngokuqinisekile, kukhona emagcekeni akhe kwakuyizididi ezintathu zamapudding amnyama. Owesifazane osekhulile, ethukuthele ekulahlekeni okubaluleke kakhulu ithuba lokuthola into yokufuna nje, futhi ukumbonisa ukuthi akavumelani nokungacabangi komuntu omdala, wayefisa ukuthi i-pudding emnyama yayizogxila ekhaleni lakhe, futhi lapho inamathela khona. Eyesaba ukuthi ingase iqhubeke lapho, le ndoda endala - yayifisa ukuthi izokwehla. Futhi kwenzeka. Izinganekwane zaphela futhi azibuyanga.

Izingane lapho zizwa le ndaba zithukuthele kulo mbhangqwana omdala, futhi zithukuthele ngokulahlekelwa yithuba elikhulu kangaka, njengoba kwakungowesifazane omdala nomyeni wakhe. Mhlawumbe zonke izingane eziye zazwa le ndaba ziye zacabangela ukuthi ngabe zenzeni uma zinezifiso ezintathu.

Izindabakwane ezithinta izifiso, futhi ikakhulukazi ezifisa ubuwula, ziyingxenye yendabuko cishe yonke inhlanga. Izingane kanye nabadala babo bangase bazibonele kanye nezifiso zabo ezivezwe kuHans Christian Andersen ethi "The Goloshes of Fortune."

Inkondlo yayinezikhwama ezimbili ezizobangela ukuthi abagqoki bayo bakwazi ukuthunyelwa kunoma yisiphi isikhathi nendawo futhi ngaphansi kwanoma yiziphi izimo nesimo ayifunayo. Ehlose ukubonisa umusa emphakathini wabantu, inganekwane yafaka izigodi phakathi kwabanye ekamelweni eliphezulu lendlu lapho iqembu elikhulu libuthene khona futhi bephikisana nombuzo wokuthi ngabe izikhathi zesikhathi esiphakathi azizange zibe ngcono kunabo eyakho.

Lapho ephuma endlini, ikhansela eliye lajabulela iminyaka ephakathi lafaka amaGoloshes Fortune esikhundleni sakhe, futhi, esacabanga ngempikiswano yakhe njengoba ephuma emnyango, wayezifisa ngezikhathi zeNkosi uHans. Emuva wahamba iminyaka engamakhulu amathathu futhi lapho ehamba wangena odakeni, ngoba ngalezo zinsuku izitaladi zazingekho futhi imigwaqo engaziwa. Lokhu kuyesabeka, kusho umkhansela, njengoba engena emathunjini, futhi ngaphandle kwalokho, izibani ziphelile. Wazama ukuthola ukuhambisa naye ekhaya, kodwa akekho owadingeka abe khona. Izindlu zazincane futhi zishaywa phansi. Ayikho ibhuloho manje ewela umfula. Abantu babesebenza ngokubambisana futhi babegqoke ngokumangalisayo. Ukuzizwa egula wangena endlini yezihambi. Ezinye izazi zaqala ukuxoxa naye. Wayekhathazekile futhi ecindezelekile ekuboniseni kwabo ukungazi, futhi nakwezinye izinto ayezibonile. Lesi yisikhathi esingajabuli kakhulu empilweni yami, usho kanje lapho ehla ngemuva kwetafula futhi ezama ukuphuma emnyango, kodwa inkampani yambeka ngezinyawo. Ezingxabanweni zakhe, lezi zingqungquthela zavela, futhi wazithola esendleleni esaziwayo, futhi emphemeni lapho umlindi wayelele ngokuzwakalayo. Ejabula lapho ebalekela ngesikhathi sikaHans Hans, ikhansela lathola iklabhu futhi yaxoshwa ngokushesha ekhaya.

Sawubona, wathi umlindi evuka, kukhona amatshe amabili. Yeka ukuthi bahlangene kangakanani, wathi, njengoba ehambisa. Wabe esebheka efasiteleni lommeli ohlala endaweni ephezulu, wabona ukukhanya nesibanjwa sihamba phezulu. Yeka ukuthi umhlaba we-Queer yikuphi, kusho umlindi. Kukhona u-lieutenant ohamba phezulu naphansi ekamelweni lakhe kuleli hora, lapho engase ahlale embhedeni wakhe oshisayo elele. Akanayo umfazi, noma izingane, futhi angase ahambe futhi azijabulise njalo kusihlwa. Yeka indoda ejabule! Ngifisa sengathi nginguye.

Umlindi waphuthunyiswa wangena emzimbeni futhi wacabanga ngommeli wecala futhi wazithola exhumene nefasitela futhi ebheka ngokudabukisayo ephepheni elibomvu lapho ebhala khona inkondlo. Wayesithandana, kodwa wayempofu futhi akazange abone ukuthi lowo owayebeke othandweni lwakhe anganqoba kanjani. Waxhuma ikhanda lakhe ngokungafihli ngokumelene nefasitela lewindi futhi wagubha. Inyanga yakhanyisa umzimba womlindi ngezansi. Hhayi, wathi, lo muntu uyajabula kakhulu kunami. Akazi ukuthi kuyini ukufuna, njengoba ngifuna. Unekhaya nomfazi nezingane zokumthanda, futhi anginakho. Ngingakwazi yini ukuthi ngibe nesabelo sakhe, futhi ngidlule impilo ngifiso eziphansi futhi ngithembele, kufanele ngijabule kunami. Ngifisa sengathi ngangingumlindi.

Emuva emzimbeni wakhe waya umlindi. O, yeka iphupho elibi ukuthi kwakungubani, wathi, futhi ngicabanga ukuthi nginguLothente futhi ngingenalo umkami nezingane kanye nekhaya lami. Ngiyajabula ngokuthi ngingumlindi. Kodwa wayesenabo emabhokisini. Wabheka phezulu esibhakabhakeni wabona inkanyezi iwa. Khona-ke waphenduka ngokumangalisayo enyangeni.

Yeka ukuthi inyanga kumele ibe yindawo engavamile, yazibuza. Ngifisa sengathi ngingazibona zonke izindawo eziyinqaba nezinto okufanele zibe khona.

Ngomzuzwana yena wathunyelwa, kodwa wazizwa okuningi endaweni. Izinto zazingekho njengoba zikhona emhlabeni, futhi izidalwa zazingaziwa, njengoba konke kwakunjalo, futhi wayegula ngokukhululekile. Wayesenyangeni, kodwa isidumbu sakhe sasisesemaphandleni lapho esishiye khona.

Ihora lini, umlindi? kubuze umdluli. Kodwa ipayipi yayiphumile esandleni somlindi, futhi akazange aphendule. Abantu babuthana, kodwa babengenakuvusa; ngakho bamyisa esibhedlela, odokotela bacabanga ukuthi ufile. Lapho emlungiselela ukuba angcwatshwe, into yokuqala eyenziwe kwakuwukuthi akhumule izigqoko zakhe, futhi ngokushesha umlindi wavuka. Yeka ubusuku obwesabekayo obulokhu bukhona, usho kanje. Ngifisa sengathi ngingalokothi ngibhekane nomunye. Futhi uma eyeke ukufisa, mhlawumbe akayena.

Umlindi wahamba, kodwa washiya izinyawo. Manje, kwenzeka ukuthi umlindi othile ovolontiya wayenelilonda lakhe esibhedlela ngalobo busuku, futhi nakuba kwakunemvula wayefuna ukuphuma isikhashana. Wayengafisi ukuvumela umnyango wesango ukuthi uyahamba, ngakho wacabanga ukuthi uzodabula ukuthuka kwensimbi. Wagqoka izigqoko futhi wazama ukuwela emigwaqeni. Inhloko yakhe yayinkulu kakhulu. Yeka ukuthi lusizi kangakanani, usho kanje. Ngifisa sengathi ikhanda lami lingaphumelela ekuthukeni. Futhi kunjalo, kepha umzimba wakhe wawusemva. Wayekhona lapho, ngoba ezama njengoba ayefuna, wayengeke athole isidumbu sakhe ngaphesheya noma ikhanda lakhe libuyele emuva. Wayengazi ukuthi izigqoko ayezigqoke kwakuyi-The Goloshes of Fortune. Wayesesimweni esibuhlungu, ngoba kwakunzima kakhulu kunanini ngaphambili, futhi wacabanga ukuthi kuzodingeka alinde amahlombe ekuthungeni futhi ahlaselwe yizingane zokusiza nabantu abazohamba ekuseni. Ngemuva kokuhlupheka ngaleyo ndlela, futhi yonke imizamo yokuzikhulula ayiboni, kwenzeka ukuthi afisa ukufisa ikhanda lakhe likhululeke; futhi kunjalo. Emva kokunye okufisa ukumbangela ukuphazamiseka okukhulu, isisebenzi sokuzithandela sasiqede amaGoloshes of Fortune.

Lezi zigodi zithathwa esiteshini samaphoyisa, lapho, ngokuziphathisa okwakhe, umabhalane wokukopisha wazibeka futhi wahamba. Ngemuva kokuzifunela isifuba kanye nesibindi, futhi ezwa imicabango nemicabango yombongi, kanye nokuzwa kwe-lark emasimini nokuthunjwa, ekugcineni wayefisa futhi wazithola etafuleni lakhe endlini yakhe.

Kodwa okungcono kakhulu amaGoloshes of Fortune alethwa kumfundi osemusha wezinkolo, owathinteka emnyango womabhalane wokukopisha ekuseni emva kokuhlangenwe nakho kwakhe kwendlovu kanye ne-lark.

Ngena, kusho umabhalane wokukopisha. Kuhle, kusho umfundi. Kuyinto ekhanda ekuseni, futhi ngithanda ukungena engadini, kodwa utshani bunamanzi. Ngingabe ngingaba nokusetshenziswa kwezigqoko zakho? Ngokuqinisekile, kusho umabhalane wokukopisha, futhi umfundi uyazibeka.

Engadini yakhe, umbono womfundi wawuvinjelwe izindonga ezincane ezazungezile. Kwakuwusuku olumnandi losahlobo futhi imicabango yakhe yaphenduka ekuhambeni emazweni ayekade ekulangazelela ukuwabona, futhi wamangala ngokukhala, Oh, ngifisa sengathi ngangihamba ngeSwitzerland, nase-Italy, futhi-. - Kodwa akafisa ukuqhubeka, ngoba ngokushesha wathola umqeqeshi wesiteji nabanye abahambahambayo, ezintabeni zaseSwitzerland. Wayenzima futhi egula ngokukhululekile futhi esaba ukulahlekelwa ipasipoti, imali nezinye izinto, futhi kwakumakhaza. Lokhu akuphikisana kakhulu, wathi. Ngifisa sengathi sasiya ngaphesheya kwentaba, e-Italy, lapho kuyashisa khona. Futhi, ngokuqinisekile, babekhona.

Izimbali, izihlahla, izinyoni, amachibi ama-turquoise ahamba emasimini, izintaba zikhuphuka futhi zifinyelela kude, futhi ilanga legolide lihlala njengenkazimulo phezu kwabo bonke, lenza umbono othakazelisayo. Kodwa kwakunothuli, kufudumele futhi kunomswakama kumqeqeshi. Izimpukane nezimbungulu zibopha bonke abagibeli futhi zenze ukuqhuma okukhulu emehlweni abo; futhi isisu sabo sasingenalutho futhi izidumbu zidiniwe. Izinduna ezimbi futhi ezikhubazekile zazivimbezela endleleni yazo futhi zibalandele ezimpilweni ezihluphekile nezodwa lapho zima khona. Kwawela isabelo somfundi ukuhlala ubukele ngenkathi abanye abagibeli belele, mhlawumbe bebephangiwe konke ababenakho. Naphezu kwezinambuzane neziphunga ezamcasula, lo mfundi waphuma. Ukuhamba kuzoba kuhle kakhulu, kusho yena, kwakungekhona ngomzimba womuntu. Nomaphi lapho ngiya khona noma noma yini engingayenza, kusekhona ukuswela enhliziyweni yami. Kumele kube umzimba ovimbela ukuthola lokhu. Ukube umzimba wami uphumule futhi ingqondo yami ikhululekile ngokungangabazeki ngithole umgomo ojabulisayo. Ngifisa ukuphela kokujabula kunabo bonke.

Khona-ke wathola ekhaya. Amakhethini adutshulwa. Phakathi nendawo ekamelweni lakhe kwakukhona ibhokisi. Kuyo walala ubuthongo bokufa. Umzimba wakhe wawuphumule futhi umoya wakhe usukuma.

Ekamelweni kwakunezinhlobo ezimbili ezihamba kuthulekile. KwakuyiNkosazana kaNjabulo eyayilethe oGoloshe beNhlanhla, nenye idlozi elibizwa ngoNompilo.

Niyabo, yiziphi izinjabulo zakho ezilethwe amadoda? kusho Care.

Kodwa baye bazuza kulowo olala lapha, waphendula le Fairy of Happiness.

Cha, kusho ukunakekelwa, wahamba ngokwakhe. Akazange abizwe. Ngizomenza umusa.

Wasusa izigqoko ezinyaweni zakhe futhi umfundi wavusa futhi wavuka. Futhi inganekwane yaphela futhi yathatha iGoloshes Fortune nayo.

Kunenhlanhla ukuthi abantu abanalo amaGoloshes Fortune, ukuthi bangase balethe umonakalo omkhulu ngokwakho ngokugqoka kwabo futhi benze izifiso zabo zigcwale ngokushesha kunomthetho esiphila kuwo uvumela.

Lapho izingane, ingxenye enkulu yokuphila kwethu yachithwa ekufiseni. Ekuphileni kwakamuva, lapho ukwahlulela kufanele kube abavuthiwe, thina, njengombhangqwana omdala kanye nabagqoki ama-goloshes, sichitha isikhathi esiningi ekufiseni, ekunganeliseki nasekudumaleni, ezintweni esizitholile nesizifisayo, nasekuzisoleni okungenamsebenzi. ngokuba bengafisi okunye.

Ukufisa kubhekwa ngokujwayelekile njengokungcola okungenalutho, futhi abaningi bacabanga ukuthi izifiso azilandelwa yizinto ezifisa futhi azizuzi lutho ekuphileni kwabo. Kodwa lezi ziyizinkolelo ezingalungile. Ukufisa kuthinta impilo yethu futhi kubalulekile ukuthi kufanele sazi ukuthi iziphi izintuthwane ezifisa futhi ziletha imiphumela ethile ekuphileni kwethu. Abanye abantu bathonywa izifiso zabo kunabanye. Umehluko emiphumeleni yokufunwa komuntu oyedwa ekufuneni komunye kuxhomeke ekutheni amandla noma amandla angcolile womcabango wakhe, ngevolumu kanye nekhwalithi yesifiso sakhe, futhi ngemuva kwesizathu sakhe sangaphambili nemicabango nezenzo yakha umlando wakhe.

Ukufisa kuyisidingo ekucabangeni phakathi kwengqondo nesifiso esizungeze into ethile yesifiso. Isifiso isifiso senhliziyo esibonisiwe. Ukufisa kuhluke ngokukhetha nokukhetha. Ukukhetha nokukhetha into kudinga ukuqhathanisa nomcabango phakathi kwalo nenye into, kanye nemiphumela yokukhetha into ekhethiwe ngokuthanda kwezinye izinto eziqhathaniswa ngazo. Uma ufisa, isifiso senza ucabange ngento ethile efunayo, ngaphandle kokuyeka ukuqhathanisa nenye into. Isifiso esiveziwe senzelwa into efunwa yisifiso. Isifiso sithola amandla ayo futhi sizalwa ngesifiso, kodwa sicabanga ukuthi siyinikeza ifomu.

Lowo owenza ukucabanga kwakhe ngaphambi kokuba akhulume, futhi okhuluma ngemva kokucabanga kuphela, akuyona into elula yokufisa njengalowo okhuluma ngaphambi kokucabanga nokuthi ngubani okhulumela ukukhuluma kwakhe. Eqinisweni, umuntu osemdala onolwazi futhi oye wazuza kulokho okuhlangenwe nakho akathandi kakhulu. Ama-Novice esikoleni sokuphila, thola injabulo enkulu ngokufisa. Ukuphila kwabaningi kuyizinqubo zokufuna, futhi izimpawu zokuphila, njengezinzuzo, umndeni, abangane, indawo, isikhundla, izimo kanye nemibandela, yizifomu nezenzakalo ezigabeni ezilandelanayo njengomphumela wokufisa kwabo.

Ukufisa kukhathazekile ngazo zonke izinto ezibonakala zikhangayo, njengokuqothula okusobala, noma ukuzuza i-dimple, noma ukuba ngumnikazi wezindawo ezincane nengcebo, noma ukudlala ingxenye ebonakalayo phambi kweso lomphakathi, futhi konke lokhu ngaphandle kokuba nesiteleka sokusebenza esicacile. Izifiso ezivame kakhulu yizo ezihlobene nomzimba womuntu siqu kanye nesifiso sayo, njengokufisa kwesinye isidlo sokudla, noma ukuthola okuthile okuthakazelisayo, isifiso sokuba indandatho, ubucwebe, ucezu lwesinwele, ingubo, ingubo, ukuba nokuthokozisa umzimba, ukuba nemoto, isikebhe, indlu; futhi lezi zifiso zanda kwabanye, njengokufisa ukuthandwa, ukuthukuthelwa, ukuhlonishwa, ukudunyiswa, nokuba nokuphakama kwezwe phezu kwabanye. Kodwa kaningi uma umuntu ethola into ayifunayo, uyathola ukuthi leyo nto ayimgculisi ngokugcwele futhi ifuna okuthile.

Labo abaye bahlangenwe nakho ngezifiso zomhlaba nezomzimba futhi bazitholele ukuthi babe yi-evanescent futhi abangathembeki ngisho nangabe betholakala, bafisa ukuzithoba, bezithiba, babe nobuhle futhi bahlakaniphile. Uma umuntu efisa ukuphendukela ezindabeni ezinjalo, uyayeka ukufuna futhi uzama ukuthola lokhu ngokwenza lokho acabanga ukuthi uzokwenza ubuhle futhi alethe ukuhlakanipha.

Olunye uhlobo lokufisa yilokho olungakhathazeki nobuntu bomuntu siqu kodwa luhlobene nabanye, njengokufisa ukuthi omunye uzothola impilo yakhe, noma inhlanhla yakhe, noma aphumelele ebhizinisini lebhizinisi, noma ukuthi uzothola ukuzithiba futhi ukwazi ukuyala imvelo yakhe nokuthuthukisa ingqondo yakhe.

Zonke lezi zifiso zinezimo kanye namathonya athile, anqunywa yivolumu kanye nekhwalithi yesifiso, ngekhwalithi namandla ekhono lakhe, kanye namandla anikezwe lawa ngemicabango yakhe nezenzo zakhe zangaphambili ezibonisa ukuthi uyathanda manje ikusasa.

Kunendlela exegayo noma eyengane yokufisa, kanye nendlela evuthiwe futhi ngezinye izikhathi ibizwa ngokuthi isayensi. Indlela exekethile ngeyokuba umuntu afise into ekhukhuleka engqondweni yakhe bese imshaya, noma lokho okusikiselwa emcabangweni wakhe ngezifiso nezifiso zakhe. Ufisa imoto, isikebhe, isigidi samadola, indlu enkulu yedolobha, izizinda ezinkulu ezweni, futhi kalula njengalapho efisa ibhokisi likagwayi, nokuthi umngane wakhe uTom Jones amkhokhele imali. vakashela ngalobo busuku. Akukho ukuqiniseka mayelana nendlela yakhe exekethile noma yobuntwana yokufisa. Umuntu ozitika ngawo unethuba lokufisa into eyodwa njenganoma iyiphi enye into. Ugxuma esuka komunye aye komunye ngaphandle kokulandelana komcabango noma indlela ekusebenzeni kwakhe.

Ngezinye izikhathi isifiso esibucayi sizobe sibheke ngamandla, futhi kusukela kulowo mhlaba siqala ukufisa futhi sibuke ukwakha indlu yakhe, bese sifisa uhlobo oluthile lokuphila ngokuzumayo lapho i-monkey ixhomeke ngomsila wayo, icubungula ukuphequlula nokubuka okuhlakaniphile, uzobe eseqa emlenzeni olandelayo bese uqala ukuxoxa. Lolu hlobo lokufisa lwenziwa ngendlela engaphenduli kahle.

Umuntu ozama ukusebenzisa indlela esifisweni sakhe, uyazi ngokugcwele futhi uyazi ukuthi yini ayifunayo nokuthi yini ayifisayo. Njengomuntu othanda ukuxega, ukufisa kwakhe kungase kuqale kokuthile akufisayo. Kodwa naye izokhula ekungacacini kwayo ibe ukuswela okuqinisekile. Khona-ke uzoqala ukukulambela, futhi isifiso sakhe siyohlala esifisweni esiqhubekayo nesihluku kanye nokufuna ukugcwaliseka kwesifiso sakhe, ngokwalokho okuye kwabizwa kamuva nje isikole esithile sezifiso ze-methodic, "Umthetho we-Opulence.” Ofisayo ngendlela ethile uvamise ukuqhubeka ngokohlelo lokucabanga okusha, okuwukuthi, ukusho isifiso sakhe nokubiza nokufuna ukuba umthetho wakhe wokunethezeka ugcwaliseke. Isicelo sakhe siwukuthi endaweni yonke kunokuchichima kwayo yonke into yabo bonke, nokuthi kuyilungelo lakhe ukubiza kusukela enaleni leyo ngxenye ayifisayo nayifunayo manje.

Njengoba esho ilungelo lakhe futhi ethi uyaqhubeka nokuthanda kwakhe. Lokhu akwenza ngokulala njalo futhi efuna ukuthokozisa isifiso sakhe, futhi ngokudonsa ngokuzenzekelayo ngesifiso sakhe futhi acabange ngokunikezwa kwezinto eziningi emhlabeni wonke, kuze kube yilapho intukuthelo ehlukumezekayo isifiso sakhe sekuye kwagcwaliseka ngezinga elithile. Akuyona into ehlakaniphile, ngokusho kwendlela entsha yokucabangela, enezifiso zakhe, nakuba engavamile ukuthola into ayifunayo, futhi ngendlela ayifisa ngayo. Eqinisweni, indlela yokuza kwayo kudala ukudala usizi olukhulu, futhi ufisa ukuthi wayengafisi, kunokuba abhekane nenhlekelele ehambisana nokuthola lesi sifiso.

Umdwebo wobuwula bokuphikelela okuphikisana nalabo abathi bazi kodwa abangazi umthetho, yilokhu okulandelayo:

Enkulumweni ephathelene nobuze bokufisa kokungazi kanye nalezo zindlela zokufuna nokufisa ezikhuthazwa amahlelo amaningi amasha, omunye owayelalele ngesithakazelo wathi: “Angivumelani nesikhulumi. Ngikholwa wukuthi nginelungelo lokufisa noma yini engiyifunayo. Ngifuna nje izinkulungwane ezimbili zamarandi, futhi ngikholwa ukuthi uma ngiqhubeka nokufisa ngizoyithola.” “Nkosikazi,” kuphendula owokuqala, “akekho ongakuvimbela ekufiseni, kodwa ungaxhamazeli kakhulu. Abaningi baye baba nesizathu sokuzisola ngesifiso sabo ngenxa yendlela okutholwe ngayo lokho ababekufisa.” “Angiyena owakho umbono,” kubhoka yena. “Ngiyakholelwa emthethweni wokuceba. Ngiyazi abanye abaye bawufuna lo mthetho, futhi ngobuningi bomhlaba izifiso zabo zazifezekile. Angikhathali ukuthi kuza kanjani, kodwa ngifuna amadola ayizinkulungwane ezimbili. Ngokuyifisa nokuyifuna ngenkani, ngiyaqiniseka ukuthi ngizoyithola.” Ezinyangeni ezithile kamuva wabuya, futhi, ebona ubuso bakhe obukhathazekile, lowo ayekhulume naye wabuza: “Nkosikazi, usitholile isifiso sakho?” “Ngenzile,” kusho yena. "Kanti wenelisekile ngokufisa?" wabuza. “Cha,” ephendula. Kodwa manje ngiyabona ukuthi isifiso sami sasiwubuwula. "Kanjani?" wabuza. “Hhayi-ke,” echaza. “Umyeni wami wayenomshwalense ngempilo yakhe wezinkulungwane ezimbili zamarandi. Umshwalense wakhe engawuthola.”
