Vusi Malindi

Umnakwethu omncinci ulala ebusuku kakhulu. Ndivuka ekuseni kakhulu, ngoba ndiyincutshe.

1

Ilanga lingeniswa ndim endlini.

2

"Uyinkwenkwezi yam yasekuseni," utsho uMa.

3

Ndiyazihlamba, andifuni kuncedwa.

4

Ndiyamelana namanzi abandayo, nesepha emzuba enukayo.

5

UMa uyandikhumbuza, "Ungawalibali amazinyo." Ndiyamphendula, "Asoze, hayi mna!"

6

Ndakugqiba ukuhlamba, ndibulisa utatomkhulu nomalumekazi, ndibanqwenelele imini emnandi.

7

Ze ndizinxibise, "Ndikhulile ngoku mama," nditsho.

8

Ndiyakwazi ukuvala amaqhosha kwaye ndiqhine nemitya yezihlangu zam.

9

Kwaye ndiqinisekise ukuba umnakwethu omncinci uyazazi zonke iindaba zasesikolweni.

10

Ndenza konke okusemandleni egumbini lokufundela.

11

Yonke imihla ndenza zonke ezi zinto zilungileyo. Kodwa eyona nto ndiyithanda kakhulu, kukudlala.
