Kwenzekani kumhloli wentela nenja yakhe?
Context:Lapho izingane zilwa ngemali ye-ayisikhilimu, uJ. Field Mouse utshela abazukulu bakhe indaba yegundane elabulawa ukuhaha nokungathembeki kwalo. Enza sengathi uyimpumputhe futhi edlala i-violin, uqoqa imali eyanele ukuze aphile ukuphila kokunethezeka. Umuzi wakhe, obonakaliswe ingaphandle elibi, uphenduka isigodlo lapho ehlala khona ngengcebo yakhe. Konke ukunethezeka komdlali we-violin kusengozini lapho umhloli wentela engqongqoza emnyango. Lo mdlali we-violin ushesha ukucindezela izinkinobho eziningana ukuze afihle ingcebo yakhe futhi enze ikhaya lakhe libukeke njengendlu encane. Uyaphumelela ekudideni umhloli wentela kuze kube seqophelweni lokuba abaleke ngokukhungatheka, kodwa ikati eliqaphile lidlala ngokuhaha kwalowo mculi we-violin futhi limyenga emilonyeni yalo ngokubeka uhlamvu lwemali lwegolide lapho. Futhi lokho, kusho uJ. Field Mouse kubazukulu bakhe, kwaba ukuphela kwegundane elihahayo. Omunye wabazukulu wabuza ukuthi igundane elihahayo ladliwa yini. Umkhulu wathi, "Yebo, wamudla wonke,". Kodwa omunye wabazukulu bakhe uphawula izinyo legolide (elemfene?) elengayo futhi uyaqaphela ukuthi izinto azizange zibe njengoba zibonakala.
Umhloli wentela uyahamba ngemva kokudideka ngenxa yomdlali we-violin, oguqula ikhaya lakhe libe isidleke. Nokho, akukho nja kule ndaba, kodwa kukhulunywa ngogundane nekati.
