ANELE KHUMALO .
I’m busy washing my laundry outside busy singing some maskandi songs .
“ANELE !” My mother shouts .
Me : ngiyeza mah !
I stood up & wiped my hands then went inside the house ‚ I found her busy kneading the dough .
Mom : are you done with your laundry ?
Me : not yet !
Mom : okay keh ‚ when you are done can you please come help me .
Me : okay mah !
I went back outside to finish doing my laundry ‚ my brother approaches me .
Likhele : Awu stompi !
Me : stompi ? Mara yini Likhele ?
Likhele : how are you little sister ?
Me : i'm good & you ?
Likhele : ngisharp just tired .
Me : hai uqalile we have to fetch some wood in the forest .
Likhele : can’t you go alone ?
Me : ngiyintombi Likhele !
Likhele : moc they say niyimbokodo !
Me : mxm !
Likhele : let me go eat quickly then we’ll rush to the forest keh .
Me : good then .
He walked inside the house ‚ I chuckled then continued with my laundry ‚ after a few minutes i was done ‚ i hanged them on the washing line then went inside . Mom was already taking the pots outside .
Me : why don’t we pay for electricity mah ?
Mom : ugesi ? Hai inkosi ifuna imali ngathi ‚ i’ll never pay for electricity i haven’t had electricity for over 30 years now so that doesn’t bother me .
Me : okay keh .
Mom : where’s Likhele so that you can fetch wood .
Me : he’s still eating .
He came outside holding a plate ‚ His mouth full of food .
Me : sheshia sizohamba !
Likhele : Eish ngiphethwe amakaka !
Me : Hai Likhele man ‚ i have to do homeworks neh !
Mom : Likhele man !
Likhele : sorry mama ngiyadlala !
He rushed back inside while i grabbed the wheelbarrow ‚ he came back after a few minutes with an axe in his hand .
Mom : are you going to cut down trees ?
Likhele : no .
Mom : leave that axe then !
Likhele : My hands mah .
Mom : Yhooo hambani !
I chuckled then pushed the wheelbarrow & went to the forest ‚ Likhele climbed on the wheelbarrow ‚ I stopped & folded my arms .
Me : Likhele uzoy’pusha wena !
Likhele : push’a man .
Me : mxm .
I walked faster leaving him behind ‚ he came running with the wheelbarrow almost knocking me down . He then burst out laughing
Likhele : Uzowa !
Me : Uyadina sometimes .
He chuckled ‚ after a few minutes we were in the forest ‚ i started to pick the wood on the floor ‚ Likhele started to cut down the large woods & placed them on the wheelbarrow . After a few minutes we headed back home ‚ on our way back home we saw a very huge car drive past us .
Likhele : Such a nice car ‚ who’s car is that ?
Me : I’m sure it’s one of the royal people .
Likhele : The village people can also afford cars wena .
Me : It’s not like i’m looking down on the village people .
Likhele : Unamanga !
Me : Yhooo fokof !
I rolled my eyes & he chuckled ‚ Likhele is 21 years old & works at a farm . He’s annoying but i love him so much ‚ No one can separate me from him shem .
Likhele : Ngikthanda isgaxa sento .
Me : Mina ngiyakzonda !
