Utshele ILANGA ukuthi indodana yakhe ibingahlali emzini wakhe, ibihlala nonina wezingane zayo ezimbili, nazo izingane emqashweni oseduze kwakwakhe.
“Besekunesikhathi eside ngagcina ukumbona. Ubejwayele ukufika lapha ekhaya uma ezonana ukudla, akhale ngokuthi kabanakho, uselinde ukuthi ahole. Kuyothi angahola ahambe angabe esabuya.

“Kuthe ngisamangaliswe yilokho, kwaqhamuka unina wazo izingane ethwele izikhwama ethi uyagoduka, naye waqinisekisa ukuthi indodana yami iboshiwe, wanginika umazisi wayo. Ngithuke ngoma, ngazibuza ukuthi le ngane isithathephi isibindi esingaka sokwenza into embi kangaka,” esho.
Uthi ngesikhathi elungiselela ukuya enkantolo ngoMsombuluko ekuseni, eyolalela icala, uthole ucingo oluvela emaphoyiseni emxwayisa ngokuthi angabe esaya ngenxa yokuthi kugcwele kakhulu futhi amalungu omphakathi athukuthele agane unwabu.
Amtshele nokuthi angabe esanyakaza lapho ekhona, makalinde wona. Afike amtshela ukuthi indodana yakhe isizilengisile.
