Amehlo obumnyama, nguDean Koontz

Kwaye kwafika umzuzu xa inyani, endaweni yokugqwesa ubuxoki, yangena kuyo ngokupheleleyo.

Olunye usuku olubi, xa i-covid-19 yaqala ukuvela njengobhubhane oza kuba ligama Dean Koontz. Ndacinga ngokusweleka kombhali, njengoko kuhlala kusenzeka kwezi meko zabalinganiswa ezinganyanzelekanga kwizihloko ezihamba phambili.

Kodwa hayi, into kukuba omnye umfundi wayekhumbule into efundwe ngoWuhan okanye mhlawumbi umbhali ngokwakhe wakhupha kwimemori kwaye wawubeka etafileni. Inqaku kukuba ukuphinda ujonge le noveli kuza kwimihlathi efriza igazi.

Okokuqala, kuba yabhalwa ngo-1981 kwaye inomdla ngokubonakalayo intsholongwane eyenziwe eWuhan eya kuhamba umhlaba kunye neziphumo eziyingozi. Okwesibini, kuba isebenza ukongeza umbono weqhinga lokuveliswa kwentsholongwane, eyethu, enegazi uCovid-19, ngaphaya kokufika kwayo kwendalo ebantwini.

Ke ukuphinda kuphindwe kwaculwa kwaye i-RBA yayikhathalela ukuze sonke sive ukuba ukungathandabuzeki kokuphazamiseka kwentsimbi ngaphakathi kwinoveli phakathi kwento emnandi, emnyama kunye nenxalenye enkulu yeemvakalelo.

UTina usinda kwi-melancholy yakhe ngokuyinxenye ngenxa yokuzinikezela kwakhe kumboniso weshishini apho kufuneka aqhubeke nokubonakala emandleni afanayo kunye nokukhohlisa njengamaxesha onke.

Kodwa iziporho zikaTina ziyaqhubeka ekrwada kwazo. Unyana wakhe oneminyaka eli-12 ubudala uDanny wasweleka kwaye umtshato uqhawuka ngaphambi nasemva kwexesha lokugqibela lonyaka ophelileyo.

Xa into evuyisayo ihambelana nenxalenye yeemvakalelo, indiphumelele. Kwaye ngelixa inoveli iqhutywa ngokulula ngokwendlela okanye ukujijwa, ubunzima bokugqitha komntu bunokuthatha konke.

Kubomi bakhe obumnyama ngaphaya kokubonakala, ngolunye usuku oluhle okanye olubi uTina ufumanisa umyalezo kwigumbi lonyana wakhe. Ukusukela ngala mzuzu singena kwimeko yesiqhelo umbhali ayithanda kakhulu, kodwa ngeli xesha yonke into ifinyiwe yimvakalelo yoloyiso oloyisayo xa ujamelene nokufa, malunga nokubuyela kwimeko yonxibelelwano naloo mntu ulibeleyo ukuthi okokugqibela " Ndiyakuthanda".

Ngunyana kaTina kuphela ongawubhaliyo umyalezo kuba. Izizathu zokubanga ingqalelo kanina zisuse ibali eliphazamisayo lokurhanela okunzulu okuthintela nayiphi na injongo yoloyiko ukubonelela ngovavanyo lweemvakalelo ezivela kumnandi.

Ehamba nomhlobo wakhe uElliot Stryker, uTina uya kuzama ukuqonda, ukucinga nokutolika imiyalezo yonyana wakhe. Yintoni engenakwenziwa kunyana nokuba sele eswelekile?
