“Rute! Rute! Bhohazi wavuma!”
Ummelwane wethu uBpuu Sey wayesenza izinto ezithile noBhohazi. Xa babuyela emotweni, uBhohazi wasuka waqaqanjelwa kakhulu sisifuba waza waba ndindisholo lonke icala lakhe lasekhohlo. Wacela uBpuu Sey ukuba andiphuthume ngokukhawuleza.
UBhohazi wayeneempawu ezingaqhelekanga kangangeveki: iminwe engathi ndindisw' isandla kwisandla sakhe sasekhohlo, ngamaxesha athile "ebona iinkwenkwezi," ukuphuthelwa kunye nesitshisa-esingaqhelekanga ngokupheleleyo kuye. Ngobusuku bangaphambi kohlaselo olukhulu, ndakhangela kwi-Intanethi ukubona ukuba ezi zinto zinokunxulumana na. Iwebhusayithi yezempilo ithe ezi ziimpawu zokuhlaselwa yintliziyo. Uyise kaBhohazi wabulawa sisifo sentliziyo xa wayeneminyaka engama-29 kuphela ubudala, ngoko sasisoloko siyiphaphele le ngongoma. Kodwa sasingayazi indlela yokuthintela ngaphandle kokutya okunempilo.
Ndithe xa ndisiva iBpuu Seys, ndakhawuleza ndaqaphela. Ndabaleka ndehla ngezitepsi ndabona uBhohazi eshwabana ziintlungu. Wandixelela ukuba wayendithanda kakhulu kwaye wayefuna ipepile yecayenne, iyeza lendalo elathi linceda ekuhlaselweni yintliziyo. Ndibaleka, ndikhubeka, yaye ndithandaza, ndakhwela izinyuko ndaza ndamphathela ipepile yecayenne. Wayiginya yaninzi.
Sagqiba ekubeni siye kwisibhedlele sasekuhlaleni. Ndayibuyisela imoto emva kwangoko ndaxinga eludakeni. Ngoko satsibela kwinqwelo-mafutha yomhlobo wethu. Ndizamile ukuhlala ndizolile kwaye ndiqhube ngocoselelo nangokukhawuleza kangangoko, ndiphepha iinkomo, izinja kunye nezithuthuthu.
Esibhedlele, ubuchule bam bolwimi bavavanywa ngokuqatha. Ndagidima ukusuka kwelinye ukuya kwelinye ukuze umntu ajonge uBhohazi. Abasebenzi basabela ngokukhululeka okukhulu, bathatha ixesha labo, bancokola nabahlobo ngefowuni. Sahlala sicela i-nitroglycerin. Kodwa ekugqibeleni saxelelwa ukuba ngelishwa iphelile.
UBhohazi wayesezingqondweni, kodwa ukuba ndindisholo kwakunwenwa entloko nasemzimbeni. Ndafowunela umlingane wam uRuby Clay. Ilizwi endiliqhelileyo kwelinye icala lomgca lalindixakile. Ndaqalisa ukulila. Unxibelelwano lwaqhawuka ngaphambi kokuba ndithethe kakhulu. AbakwaClays babekwikomkhulu ngenxa yokuba intombi yabo yayilaliswe esibhedlele ineappendicitis kwiveki ephelileyo. Akwaba bebelapha ngoku! Ndaziva ndililolo Kodwa ndandisazi ukuba uYehova unathi.
Sagqiba kwelokuba simqhubele uBhohazi iiyure ezine ukuya kwikomkhulu. Ndiqale ndahamba ngemoto ndagqitha apho bendizoqhela khona ugqirha umhlobo wam. Wayene nitroglycerin wandinika yona nangona ndandingenamali. Emva koko ndaqhuba ndabuyela kuBoaz saza sahamba kunye ukuya endlwini sithatha abantwana bethu kunye neebhegi ezimbalwa. Imeko kaBhohazi yabonakala isiba mandundu.
Ngelo xesha, umhlobo wethu uBpuu Sok wayeqokelele iqela waza wayityhala imoto yethu yaphuma eludakeni. Enkosi khange sibe naxhala ngalonto nathi kule meko. Sakhwelisa abantwana nezinto sancedisa uBoaz ukukhwela emotweni yethu. UBpuu Sok wayefuna ukuhamba nathi, saqhuba sibheka komkhulu.
Ekuhambeni kwexesha, uBhohazi waba bhetele. Ngoxolo lwengqondo ngakumbi, sathumela uBpuu Sok ekhaya ngeteksi, kodwa sagqiba ekubeni siqhubeke kwaye uBhohazi ahlolwe esibhedlele. Ndithe ndisahleli apho ndizama ukwenza umcimbi, ndajonga phezulu ndabona into entle ngendlela emangalisayo! Ngaphambili kwakukho ilifu lemvula kwaye ukukhanya kwelanga emva kwalo kwafaka imibala emacaleni alo ngemibala yomnyama (umfanekiso wokuqala ongasentla). Ndasuka ndalila kuba ndandiqonda ukuba ngenene iNkosi inathi yaye isijongile. Hayi indlela endandinombulelo ngayo kuba umyeni wam wayesaphila! Hayi indlela ebendinombulelo ngayo kuThixo ngokusinceda kule meko imbi kangaka.
Yayiyeyona nto imbi kakhulu endakha ndayifumana. Ndaziva ndindedwa-njengomphambukeli kwilizwe lasemzini. Kodwa nam ndaziva ndixhaswa kakhulu ngabantu basekuhlaleni. Benza konke okusemandleni abo ukuze basincede. Nangona ndandisele ndikwicala lexhala, uThixo wandinika amandla angaphakathi noxolo olungaphaya kokwemvelo. Wandithumela umnyama, waba ngumqondiso wokuthembeka kwakhe.
Isibhedlele esikwikomkhulu sibonelela ngokhathalelo olukumgangatho ophezulu. UBhohazi wahlolisiswa ngokucokisekileyo. Saye sakhululeka kakhulu sakufumanisa ukuba akanangxaki yentliziyo kodwa wayenexhala. Kangangenyanga uBhohazi waqhubeka eneempawu ezifanayo de ekugqibeleni safumanisa ukuba zisuka kukusilela kweeminerali awayezifumene ngenxa yosulelo lweGiardia.
