Lo nguPalesa.

Ibizo lakhe litjho ithuthumbo ngelimi lekhabo, leSetswana.

Ekuseni uPalesa ukhuluma nomuthi wama-orentji.

"Muthi wama-orentji, ngibawa usiphe ama-orentji amanengi."

UPalesa uya esikolweni.

Endleleni uthi etjanini, "Ngiyakubawa tjani, hlala uhlaza ungatjhwabi."

UPalesa udlula emathuthumbeni wommango.

"Mathuthumbo, ngiyathokoza ngemibala yenu ekhanyako."

Esikolweni, uPalesa ukhuluma nemithi emincani.

"Mithi, ngibawa nibe namataka amakhulu sikghone ukufundela ngaphasi komthunzi wenu."

UPalesa ukhuluma nehlatjhana elincani elizungeze isikolo sakhe.

"Ngibawa ukhule unamandla uvimbe abantu abambi bangangeni ngaphakathi."

Lokha uPalesa nakabuya esikolweni, wavakatjhela umuthi wama-orentji.

"Selavuthiwe ama-orentji wakho?" kubuza uPalesa.

"Ama-orentji asese hlaza," kuphefumula uPalesa. Wathi, "Ngizokubona kusasa muthi wama-orentji."

"Mhlamunye lokho uzabe unama-orentji wami avuthiweko!"
