Idolophu yaseJelly yayizolile njengesiqhelo.Bonke abahlali babelungiselela ukuya emsebenzini.Idolophu yayikumda ophakathi kweNtaba yeSugar kunye noMlambo oSweet.Wawumi kanye ekudibaneni kwemitha yelanga kunye nomnyama omibalabala.Ngenxa yazo zonke ezi nkalo, abantu abahlala kule dolophu babemilo nemibala eyahlukahlukeneyo.
Njengesiqhelo, kwaye ngale ntsasa ilanga lalikhanya.Oku kwanceda ukuba iswekile inyibilike kwaye yehla entabeni ukuya kwimizi-mveliso yedolophu ebizwa ngokuba yi "Minicrush".Lo mzi-mveliso wawungowona mthombo wobomi wabemi ngenxa yokuba yonke ijeli eyayiveliswa ngumzi-mveliso yayikukutya.
Iindlovu zazisebenza kumzi-mveliso njengoko zazizezona zomeleleyo.Zonke iindlovu zazineeyunifomu yaye ngemiboko yazo, zazithwala ulwelo ukusuka komnye umatshini ukuya komnye.Ukuze bafike kumzi-mveliso, abasebenzi kwakufuneka badlule kwiyadi enkulu ezele ziziqhamo ezahlukahlukeneyo.Ama-apile, iipesika neemango zazikhula emithini.Amasimi amakhulu ephayinapile asasazeka kwigadi yonke.Ematyholweni amaqunube ayebomvu, kwaye iidiliya zijinga macala onke.Zonke ezi ziqhamo zazifuneka kwimveliso yeelekese ezahlukeneyo zejeli.
Oogxa babo babulisa kwindawo ethambekileyo.
“Molweni,” yatsho indlovu.
“Molo,” watsho omnye, ephakamisa umnqwazi entloko ngomboko wakhe.
Xa bonke abasebenzi bathatha izikhundla zabo, imveliso yaqala.Iindlovu zasebenza ngengoma kwaye akuzange kube nzima kuzo ukuvelisa ukutya kwedolophu yonke ngombala womzi-mveliso.Ngenye imini indlovu yaqala ukucula ingoma kwaye emva koko, loo ngoma yaba yingoma enkulu:
Ndiza kusigcwalisa isisu sam
ngale jeli inencasa.
Ndithanda ukuyitya yonke:
opinki, omfusa, kunye notyheli.
Ndiyathanda ukuyitya ebhedini yam:
eluhlaza, orenji, kunye nobomvu.
Ngoko ke ndiya kuyenza ndineentloni
kuba ndiyayithanda iMinicrush.
Umatshini wokugqibela wawujula iilekese zejeli esele zenziwe yaza indlovu yazibamba ngomboko wayo.Wazipakisha kwiibhokisi ezinkulu ezityheli waza wazifaka elorini.Iilekese zejeli zazilungele ukuthuthwa ezivenkileni.
Iinkumba zenza imisebenzi yothutho.Yintoni isigqebelo.Kodwa ngenxa yokuba becotha, bawenza umsebenzi wabo ngenkathalo.
Kwaye ngeli xesha, inkumba enye yangena kwisango lomzi-mveliso.Kwamthatha malunga neeyure ezintathu ukunqumla eyadini ukuya kufika kwindawo yokugcina impahla.Ngeli xesha, indlovu yayiphumla, yatya, yafunda incwadi, yalala, yaphinda yatya, yaqubha kwaye ihamba.Yathi yakufika le nkumba, indlovu yafaka iibhokisi elorini.Wabetha umboko kabini, enika umqhubi uphawu lokuhamba.Inkumba yawangawangisa yaza yasingisa kwivenkile enkulu.Wathi akufika evenkileni kumnyango ongasemva, wayelindelwe ziingonyama ezimbini.Bathabatha ibhokisi enye ngexesha baza bazifaka evenkileni.Unonkala wayelinde kwikhawuntara waza wakhwaza:
"Khawuleza, abantu balindile."
Ngaphambi kwevenkile, umgca omkhulu wezilwanyana wawulindele ukuthenga iilekese zejeli.Abanye babengenamonde kakhulu kwaye ngalo lonke ixesha babembombozela.Aba baselula bema bezolile bephulaphule umculo kwiiheadphones.Bahlunguzela amehlo bengasiqondi isizathu sokuba wonke umntu okufutshane nabo abe novalo.Kodwa xa unonkala wavula umnyango wevenkile, zonke izilwanyana zagxalathelana ukungena.
“Ndifuna ilekese ye-apile enye kunye namaqunube amathathu,” latsho elinye inenekazi.
“Uya kundinika iimango ezimbini ezinencasa emnandi nezine namapayina,” yatsho enye ingonyama.
"Ndiza kuthatha ipesika kunye neelekese ezilishumi elinesibini zeediliya," inenekazi elikhulu lendlovu latsho.
Wonke umntu wamjonga.
"Yintoni? Ndinabantwana abathandathu," watsho ngokuzingca.
Iilekese zejeli zazithengiswa ngokwazo.Isilwanyana ngasinye sasinencasa yaso esiyithandayo, yaye ngenxa yoko, kwakukho iindidi ezahlukeneyo zeelekese ezishelufini.Inenekazi elikhulu lendlovu lachola iidiliya zalo ezilishumi elinesibini kunye nenye yeelekese zeepesika.Ukufika kwakhe ekhaya, iindlovu ezincinci ezintandathu zalinda isidlo sazo sakusasa.
“Khawuleza, Mama, ndilambile,” watsho uSteve omncinane.
UNkosikazi Ndlovu wancuma ngobubele waza wathambisa unyana wakhe ngomboko wakhe.
"Kancinci, bantwana. Ndineelekese zomntu wonke," watsho waza waqalisa ukwabelana ngeelekese ezimbini kumntwana ngamnye.
Bahlala bonke etafileni ende begxalathelana ukuya kwiilekese zabo.Umama wendlovu wabeka ijeli yepesika enye kwipleyiti yakhe waza watya ngovuyo.Kolu sapho usuku lwadlula ngoxolo njengesiqhelo.Abantwana babekwisikolo sabantwana abancinane ngoxa umama wabo wayesemsebenzini ngelo xesha.Wayengumfundisi-ntsapho esikolweni, ngoko yonke imihla, xa iiklasi ziphelile;waya ebantwaneni bakhe abancinci wabagodusa.Endleleni egodukayo, bamisa kwivenkile yokutyela ukuze bafumane isidlo sasemini.Umncedisi wasondela etafileni waza walinda umyalelo weendlovu ezincinci ezintandathu.Ngamnye kubo waodola iilekese ezimbini ezahlukeneyo zejeli.UNkosazana Ndlovu wathi:
"Kum, njengesiqhelo."
Emva kwesidlo sasemini, intsapho yasekhaya yabuyela ekhaya.Indlu eyayihlala indlovu nabantwana bayo yayimile okweqanda kwimigangatho emithathu.Ifomu enjalo yayinazo zonke izindlu eziselumelwaneni.Umgangatho ngamnye unabantwana ababini abalalayo.Kwakulula ngendlovu engumama ukuseka ucwangco phakathi kwabantwana.Bathe abantwana bakugqiba umsebenzi wabo wesikolo, umama wabo wabayalela ukuba bahlambe amazinyo baze balale ebhedini.
“Kodwa andidinwanga,” wakhalaza uEmma omncinane.
“Ndifuna ukudlala ngakumbi,” wakhalaza uSteve omncinane.
"Ndingayibukela iTV?"UJack omncinci wabuza.
Nangona kunjalo, uNkskz. Ndlovu wazingisa kwiinjongo zakhe.Abantwana babedinga iphupha kwaye akazange avume ukuba kuxoxwe.Xa bonke abantwana belele ebhedini, umama weza kuye ngamnye wabo waza wabanga ukuba balale kamnandi.Ebediniwe kwaye akade afike ebhedini yakhe.Waxoka walala ngoko nangoko.
I-alam yewotshi yakhala.Umama wendlovu wavula amehlo akhe.Weva imitha yelanga ebusweni bakhe.Uye wolula izandla wehla ebhedini.Ukhawuleze wanxiba ilokhwe yakhe epinki wabeka entloko umnqwazi onentyatyambo.Wayefuna ukuba abokuqala beze phambi kwevenkile ukuze baphephe ukulinda emgceni.
"Kuhle. Ayisosihlwele esikhulu," wacinga xa wabona iingonyama ezimbini kuphela phambi kwevenkile.
Kungekudala, emva kwakhe kume uMnumzana noNksk. Crab.Bafika ke abafundi ababesiya esikolweni.Kwaye kancinci kancinci, yonke indawo ebumelwaneni yadalwa phambi kwevenkile.
Babelindele umthengisi ukuba avule ucango.Ihambile iyure ulayini wenziwa.Izilwanyana zaqalisa ukuxhalaba.Kwadlula enye iyure kwaye wonke umntu waqala ukuphelelwa ngumonde.Kwaye emva koko umnyango wevenkile wavulwa nguMnu. Crab.
"Ndineendaba ezimbi. Umzi-mveliso weelekese zejeli uyaphangwa!"
Inkosi uSunny yayihleli kwiofisi yayo enkulu.Le dayinaso ityheli yayiphethe ukhuseleko lwale dolophu incinci.Ekubeni wayesoloko ehleli kwisitulo somlawuli wakhe, wayetyebe enesisu esikhulu.Ecaleni kwakhe, phezu kwetafile, kwakumi isitya seelekese zejeli.Inkosi uSunny yathatha ilekese enye yayifaka emlonyeni.
“Mmmm,” Wayonwabela incasa yesiqunube.
Wandula ke wajonga ngoloyiko ileta eyayiphambi kwakhe eyayipapashwe kumzi-mveliso wokuphanga.
"Ngubani onokwenza loo nto?"wacinga.
Wayecinga ukuba zeziphi iiarhente ezimbini ezaziza kuqesha kweli tyala.Bamele ukuba zezona arhente zibalaseleyo kuba ukusinda kwesixeko kubuzwa.Emva kwemizuzu embalwa ecinga, wathatha ifowuni wacofa iqhosha elinye.Ilizwi elitswinayo laphendula:
"Ewe, umphathi?"
“Nkosazana Rose, ndibizele iiarhente uMango noGreener,” watsho uSunny.
Ngokukhawuleza uNkszn Rose wafumana iinombolo zefowuni zabameli ababini kwincwadi yakhe yefowuni waza wabamemela kwintlanganiso engxamisekileyo.Emva koko waphakama waya kumatshini wekofu.
USanny uhleli kwisitulo sakhe emilenze yakhe iphakame phezu kwetafile wajonga efestileni.Ikhefu lakhe laphazanyiswa yidayinaso epinki eyangena eofisini ingankqonkqoza.Wayeneenwele eziphothiweyo eziqokelelwe kwibhanti enkulu.Iindondo zokufunda zatsibela empumlweni yakhe njengoko wayejiwuzisa isinqe sakhe esibanzi.Nangona wayetyebile, uNkosazana Rose wayefuna ukunxiba kakuhle.Ebenxibe ihempe emhlophe neskirt esimnyama.Ubeke ikomityi yekofu phambi komphathi wakhe.Kwaye emva kokubona ukuba umphathi wakhe ufuna ukuthatha enye ilekese, wabetha eyona dayinaso ingalo yakhe.USanny esoyika wawisa ilekese yejeli.
"Ndicinga ukuba kufuneka ugcine ukutya," watsho uRose ngokuzimisela.
“Ngubani oxelayo,” watsho uSunny embombozela.
"Intoni?"Wabuza uRose emangalisiwe.
"Akukho nto, akukho nto. Ndithe umhle namhlanje," u-Sunny wazama ukuphuma.
Ubuso bukaRose budanekile.
Ebona ukuba uRose waqala ukumqhwanyaza iliso, u-Sunny wakhohlela waza wabuza:
"Ngaba ubize iiarhente?"
“Ewe, basendleleni eya apha,” utshilo.
Kodwa emva nje kwesibini, iidinosaur ezimbini zabhabha ngefestile.Ayebotshwe ngeentambo.Enye incam yentambo yayibotshelelwe eluphahleni lwesakhiwo yaye enye esinqeni sabo.U-Sunny noRose batsiba.Umphathi waziva ekhululekile xa wafumanisa ukuba ngabameli bakhe ababini.Ebambe intliziyo yakhe, akazange abuze:
"Ngaba ungangena emnyango, njengabo bonke abantu abaqhelekileyo?"
Idayinaso eluhlaza, iarhente uGreener, yancuma yaza yawola umphathi wayo.Wayemde ebhityile, intloko yakhe ifike esinqeni.
“Kodwa, mphathi, ayizukuba nomdla,” utshilo uGreener.
Wakhulula iindondo zakhe ezimnyama waqhwanyaza wajonga unobhala.URose wancuma:
"Owu, Greener, uthandeka njengesiqhelo."
UGreener wayesoloko encumile kwaye ekwimo elungileyo.Wayethanda ukuqhula nokuncwasa amantombazana.Wayenomtsalane kwaye emhle kakhulu.Ngelixa umlingane wakhe, ummeli uMango, wayemchasile ngokupheleleyo.Umzimba wakhe orenji wawuhonjiswe ngezihlunu ezingalweni, iipleyiti zesisu kunye nesimo sengqondo esinzulu.Wayengaziqondi iziqhulo kwaye akazange ahleke.Nangona babengafani, aba bathunywa babini babehlala kunye.Basebenza kakuhle.Bebeneebhatyi ezimnyama kunye neepeksi ezimnyama.
"Yintoni, boss?"Wabuza uGreener wabuya wangqiyama kwi sofa esecaleni kwetafile.
Wema ngxi uMango elindele impendulo yomphathi wakhe.U-Sunny wadlula kuye wamnika ukuba ahlale phantsi, kodwa uMango wavele wathula.
“Ngamanye amaxesha ndiyakoyika,” watsho uSunny esoyika ejonge uMango.
Emva koko wakhupha ividiyo kumqadi omkhulu wevidiyo.Kwakukho i-walrus enkulu enamafutha kwividiyo.
"Njengoko sele uvile, umzi-mveliso wethu weelekese uphangiwe. Oyena mrhanelwa nguGabriel."U-Sunny walatha kwi-walrus.
"Kutheni ucinga ukuba ulisela?"Wabuza uGreener.
"Kuba ubanjwe kwiikhamera zokhuseleko."USunny wakhupha ividiyo.
Le vidiyo yabonisa ngokucacileyo indlela uGabriel awayenxiba ngayo njengeninja esondela kumnyango womzi-mveliso.Kodwa into uGabriel wayengayazi kukuba isuti yakhe ye-ninja yayincinci kwaye onke amalungu omzimba wakhe afunyenwe.
“Enjani yona indoda elumkileyo,” uGreener wayephoxile.Iidayinaso zaqhubeka nokubukela ushicilelo.UGabriel wazichola zonke iibhokisi ezineelekese zejeli wazifaka kwilori enkulu.Uye wakhwaza esithi:
"Yeyam! Yeyam yonke! Ndiyazithanda iilekese zejeli kwaye ndiza kuzitya zonke!"
UGabriel wakhwela ilori yakhe waza wanyamalala.
“Kufuneka sityelele uGqirha uViolet kuqala, kwaye uya kusinika izongezo zevithamin ukuze singalambi,” uthethe watsho uGreener.
Abameli ababini bahamba kwizitrato zedolophu encinane.Abemi balapho bababukela baza bakhwaza:
"Sibuyisele iijeli zethu!"
Bafika kwisibhedlele sedolophu baza baphakamisa ukuya kumgangatho wesithathu.Idayinaso entle emfusa eneenwele ezimfutshane yayibalindile.UMango wothuswa bubuhle bakhe.Ebenedyasi emhlophe namacici amakhulu amhlophe.
“UnguGqirha Violet?”Wabuza uGreener.
UViolet wanqwala wanikezela iingalo zakhe kwiiarhente.
"NdinguGreener kwaye lo ngugxa wam, iarhente uMango."
UMango wavele wathula.Ubuhle bukaGqirha bumshiye engathethi.UViolet wababonisa iofisi yokungena emva koko wathatha iinaliti ezimbini.Wathi uMango akubona inaliti, wawa engekho zingqondweni.
Emva kwemizuzwana embalwa, uMango wavula amehlo akhe.Wabona amehlo amakhulu aluhlaza kagqirha.Wancuma eqhwanyaza:
"Ingaba ulungile?"
Waphakama uMango wakhohlela.
“Ndiphilile. Kumele ukuba ndiwile zingqondweni ngenxa yendlala,” waxoka.
Ugqirha wakhupha inaliti yokuqala kuGreener.Waza ke weza kuMango wabamba isandla sakhe esomeleleyo.Wayethakathwa yimisipha yakhe.Iidayinaso zajongana ukuze uMango angave naxa inaliti igqobhoza isandla sakhe.
“Kuphelile,” watsho ugqirha encumile.
“Uyabona ke, mfo omkhulu, khange uve naloo nto,” uGreener wambambazela egxalabeni ugxa wakhe.
“Ndifuna ukudibana nomntu,” uViolet wamemela eofisini yakhe idayinaso ebomvu.
“NguRuby lo.Uzakuhamba nathi xa siqhuba,” utshilo uViolet.
URuby wangena waza wabulisa iiarhente.Wayeneenwele ezinde ezityheli ezibotshelelwe emsileni.Ebethwele ikepisi yamapolisa entloko enxibe ne uniform yamapolisa.Wayemhle nangona wayeziphethe okwenkwenkwe.
"Ucinga uhamba njani nathi?"UGreener wamangaliswa.
“Umphathi uSunny ukhuphe umyalelo wokuba mna noViolet sihamba nawe, uViolet uzakube ekhona ukuze asitofe ngeevithamini nam ndizakunceda ukubamba isela,” ucacise watsho uRuby.
“Kodwa asifuni ncedo,” waxhathisa uGreener.
“Uyalele ke umphathi,” watsho uViolet.
"Ulwazi lwam kukuba isela uGabriel likwindlu yakhe ekwiNtaba yeShukela. Wabeka imiqobo entabeni ukuze iswekile ingathotywa kumzi-mveliso."Utshilo uRuby.
UGreener wamjonga efinge iintshiya.Yayingafuni ukuhamba namantombazana amabini.Wayecinga ukuba baya kumkhathaza kuphela.Kodwa kwafuneka aphulaphule umyalelo wenkosi.
Iidayinaso ezine zasinga kwinqaba kaGabriel.Ngalo lonke ixesha, uGreener noRuby babesilwa.Nantoni na awayeza kuyithetha, uGreener wayeya kuphikisana kwaye ngokuphambeneyo.
“Kufuneka siphumle,” wacebisa uRuby.
“Asifuni kuphumla okwangoku,” utshilo uGreener.
"Siye sahamba ngeeyure ezintlanu. Sawela isiqingatha sentaba, "uRuby wayezingisa.
“Ukuba sihlala siphumla, soze sifike,” uGqirha uGreener.
"Sidinga ukuphumla. Sibuthathaka," uRuby wayesele enomsindo.
"Kutheni na ngoku unathi xa ungenamandla?"UGreener watsho ngokuzingca.
“Ndiza kukubonisa ukuba ngubani obuthathaka,” wafinga uRuby wambonisa inqindi.
“Asifuni kuphumla,” utshilo uGreener.
“Ewe, siyayidinga,” wakhwaza uRuby.
“Hayi, asifuni!”
“Ewe, siyayifuna!”
"Hayi!"
"Ewe!"
Wasondela uMango wema phakathi kwabo.Ngeengalo zakhe, wabamba ibunzi labo ukubahlula.
“Siza kuphumla,” watsho ngelizwi elinzulu uMango.
“Eli lithuba lokukunika idosi elandelayo yeevithamini,” wacebisa uViolet kwaye wakhupha iinaliti ezine kubhaka wakhe.
Uthe nje akubona iinaliti, uMango waphinda wawa engekho zingqondweni.UGreener wakhupha amehlo waza waqalisa ukuqhwaba ugxa wakhe:
“Vuka, ndoda enkulu.”
Emva kwemizuzwana embalwa, uMango wavuka.
"Iphinde yalamba?"Wancuma uViolet.
Xa wonke umntu efumene iivithamini zabo, iidinosaur zagqiba ekubeni zihlale phantsi komthi omnye.Ubusuku babubanda kwaye uViolet wasondela kancinci kuMango.Uphakamise isandla wangena phantsi kwaso wangqiyama ngentloko esifubeni sakhe.Izihlunu zakhe ezikhulu zamfudumeza ugqirha.Balala bobabini bencumile.
URuby wamenzela ibhedi eneswekile eninzi walala kuyo.Nangona ibhedi yayikhululekile, umzimba wakhe wawungcangcazela ngenxa yengqele.UGreener wahlala emva emthini.Wayenomsindo kuba uRuby waphumelela.Uye wamjonga ebambe amashiya.Kodwa wathi akubona uRuby engcangcazela kwaye eziva egodola, wazisola.Ukhulule ibhatyi yakhe emnyama wazogquma ngayo eli polisakazi.Wamjonga elele.Wayezolile kwaye emhle.UGreener weva amabhabhathane esiswini sakhe.Wayengafuni ukuvuma ukuba wathandana noRuby.
Kwakusa, uRuby wavula amehlo akhe.Wamjonga wambona egqunywe ngebhatyi emnyama.UGreener wayelele engqiyame emthini.Wayengenayo ibhatyi ngoko uRuby waqonda ukuba wamnika.Uye wancuma.Kwavuka uMango noViolet.Bakhawuleza bohlukana omnye komnye.URuby wajula ibhatyi kwiGreener.
“Enkosi,” watsho.
"Kumele ukuba ibhabha ngempazamo isiza kuwe," uGreener wayengafuni uRuby aqonde ukuba umgqume ngebhatyi.Iidayinaso zazilungile kwaye ziqhubela phambili.
Ngoxa iidayinaso ezine zinyuka intaba, uGabriel wayeyonwabela kwinqaba yakhe.Wahlamba ebhafini egcwele iilekese zejeli kwaye watya nganye nganye.Wayeyonwabela yonke incasa awayeyingcamla.Akakwazanga ukugqiba ukuba yeyiphi ilekese ayithanda kakhulu:
Mhlawumbi ndikhetha ipinki.
Ithambile njengesilika.
Ndiza kuthatha oku ngezantsi.
Owu, jonga, lityheli.
Ndithanda noluhlaza.
Ukuba uyayazi ndithetha ukuthini?
Kwaye xa ndibuhlungu,
Nditya ijeli enye ebomvu.
I-Orenji iyavuya
Molo ekuseni kunye nobusuku obuhle.
Purple wonke umntu uyayithanda.
Yeyam yonke, hayi eyakho.
UGabriel wayezingca yaye engafuni ukwabelana nabanye ngokutya.Nangona wayesazi ukuba ezinye izilwanyana zilambile, wayezifunela zonke iilekese.
I-walrus enkulu etyebileyo yaphuma ebhafini.Uthathe I towel wayibhinqisa esinqeni.Ibhafu yonke yayizaliswe ziimbotyi zejeli.Uphume ebathroom waya egumbini lakhe lokulala.Iilekese zazikho kuyo yonke indawo.Wathi xa evula ikhabethe lakhe kulo, kwaphuma isipha seelekese.UGabriel wayevuya kuba wayeziba zonke iijeli kwaye wayeza kuzitya yedwa.
Isela elityebileyo langena eofisini yalo laza lahlala kwisitulo sokuzikhusela.Edongeni, wayenescreen esikhulu esasidityaniswe neekhamera ezifakwe kuyo yonke intaba.Wathatha iremote wavula iTV.Watshintsha amajelo.Yonke into ejikeleze inqaba yayilungile.Kodwa kwelinye ijelo, wabona abantu abane benyuka intaba.Wazilungisa wasondeza umfanekiso.Iidayinaso ezine zahamba kancinci.
"Ngubani lo?"UGabriyeli wazibuza.
Kodwa wathi akubona ngcono, wabona iiarhente ezimbini ezineebhatyi ezimnyama.
"Laa Sunny utyebileyo umele ukuba uthumele ii-arhente zakhe. Awuyi kuba lula ngolo hlobo," Watsho ebalekela kwigumbi elikhulu elinoomatshini kulo.Wafika kwi lever wayitsala.Umatshini waqalisa ukusebenza.Amavili amakhulu aqalisa ukujika nokutsala ityathanga lentsimbi.Ityathanga laphakamisa umqobo omkhulu owawuphambi kwenqaba.Iswekile eyayinyibilika entabeni yaqalisa ukuhla.
UGreener noRuby babesaxambulisana.
“Hayi, ijeli yamaqunube ayikho ngcono,” utshilo uGreener.
“Ewe, kunjalo,” uRuby wazingisa.
"Hayi akunjalo.Umdiliya ungcono,”
"Ewe yiyo.Ijeli yestrawberry yeyona lekese imnandi kwezakha zakho.”
"Hayi akunjalo."
"Ewe yiyo!"URuby wayenomsindo.
"Hayi!"
"Ewe!"
"Hayi!"
"Ewe!"
Kwaphinda kwafuneka iMango ingenelele.Wema phakathi kwawo, wawacanda.
“Akufunekanga kuxoxwe ngeencasa,” watsho ngelizwi elipholileyo.
UGreener noRuby bajongana, baqonda ukuba uMango wayenyanisile.Abantu abaninzi baxambulisana ngezinto ezingenamsebenzi, kwaye loo nto ibangela iingxaki.Akukho mntu unokuze akwazi ukuthetha ukuba i-strawberry okanye ijeli yomdiliya imnandi.Wonke umntu unencasa ayithandayo.Kwaye kule ngxoxo, zombini iidinosaur zazilungile.
“Hey, bantu, andifuni kuniphazamisa, kodwa ndicinga ukuba sinengxaki,” watsho uViolet esoyika, ejongise isandla sakhe encotsheni yentaba.
Zonke iidayinaso zajonga kwicala lesandla sikaViolet zaza zabona iavaloni enkulu yeswekile igxalathelana ukuya kuzo.IMango yaginya idombolo.
“Baleka!”Wakhwaza uGreener.
Iidayinaso zaqalisa ukubaleka iswekile, kodwa xa zibona i-avalanche yazo isiza, zaqonda ukuba azinakubaleka.Umango wabamba umthi omnye.UGreener wabamba iinyawo zikaMango, waza uRuby wabamba umlenze kaGreener.UViolet akazange akwazi ukubamba umsila weRuby.Iswekile ifikile.Wanxiba yonke into ephambi kwakhe.Iidayinaso zagcina enye kwenye.Abazange bakwazi ukumelana namandla e-avalanche.Kungekudala yonke iswekile yadlula kubo yaza yehlela kumzi-mveliso.
Iindlovu zazihleli eyadini yomzi-mveliso, zilambile.Omnye wabo wabona isixa esikhulu seswekile sisondela kubo.
“Ngumangaliso,” wacinga njalo.
Wacikica amehlo kodwa iswekile iseza.
“Jongani, bafo,” wabonisa abanye abasebenzi besiya ngakuloo ngqushu.
Zonke iindlovu zaxhuma zaza zaqalisa ukulungisa umzi-mveliso weswekile.
"Kuya kukwanela iibhokisi ezimbalwa zeejeli. Siza kubanika abafazi nabantwana," omnye wabo wakhwaza.
Ishiti elimhlophe layigubungela intaba.Ngalo, intloko enye yakroba.BekuGreener.Ecaleni kwakhe, kwathi gqi uRuby kwaza kwavela uMango.
"Uphi uViolet?"Wabuza uRuby.
Iidayinaso zantywila kwiswekile.Babekhangela umhlobo wabo omfusa.Waze uMango wafumana isandla sikaViolet eswekileni wamkhupha.Iidayinaso zazishukumisa imizimba yazo ukuze zizicoce.Abahlobo abane baqonda ukuba ngoncedo lomnye nomnye, bakwazi ukuphuma kule ngxaki.Bekunye baba namandla ngakumbi.Bancedisana kwaye bekunye bakwazi ukuphumelela i-avalanche.Baqonda ukuba bubuhlobo bokwenene.
“Mhlawumbi uGabriel ufumanise ukuba siyeza,” uqukumbele watsho uRuby.
“Kufuneka sikhawuleze,” utshilo uGreener.
UMango waphakamisa uViolet emqolo kwaye bonke bakhawuleza.
Bathi bakubona inqaba, balala phantsi bonke.Bathe chu basondela kwityholo elinye.
Greener wabukela ngebhayinotyhulari.Wayefuna ukuqinisekisa ukuba uGabriyeli akayi kumbona.Emva koko wabona isela lidlala ibhola kwigumbi elinye.
“Uphambene lo mfo,” watsho.
"Kufuneka sifike kwigumbi lomatshini kwaye sikhulule yonke iswekile," uRuby wayeceba isicwangciso.
“Unyanisile,” watsho uGreener.
Wonke umntu wamangala ukuba uGreener wavuma uViolet.Uye wancuma.
“Mango, uya kubasusa oonogada ababini phambi kwenqaba,” wacebisa uRuby.
“Ndimkelwe,” waqinisekisa uMango.
"Violet, uzohlala apha ulinde. Ukuba kuvela omnye unogada, uya kunika uMango uphawu."
“Ndiyakuva,” wanqwala uViolet.
"Greener kwaye ndiza kungena kwinqaba kwaye sijonge umatshini."
UGreener wavuma.
Iidayinaso ezintathu zaya ngakwinqaba, kwaye uViolet wasala ejonga macala onke.
Iiwalrus ezimbini ezinkulu ezityebileyo zazimi kwisango lenqaba.Babediniwe kuba babesitya kakhulu ijeli.UGreener wajula ingqalutye kwicala likanogada osuka etyholweni.UWalrus wajonga kweli cala, kodwa uMango wasondela kubo ngasemva.Wabetha enye egxalabeni.Unogada wajika wabona uMango.Ezinye iidinosaurs zazicinga ukuba iMango yayiza kubetha abalindi ababini, kodwa endaweni yoko, uMango waqala ukucula ngelizwi elimnandi nelincinci:
Amaphupha amnandi bantwana bam.
Ndiza kunijonga njengoonyana bam.
Ndiza kuzalisa izisu zakho ezimnandi.
Ndiza kukunika isipha seejeli.
Oonogada balala ngesiquphe, bephulaphule ilizwi likaMango omhle.Nangona kwakulula kuMango ukubabetha ngenqindi aze ngaloo ndlela asombulule ingxaki, uMango usakhetha indlela engcono yokuhlangabezana nale ngxaki.Wakwazi ukukhupha umlindi ngaphandle kokubenzakalisa.Wakwazi ukunqanda ukudibana ngokwasemzimbeni kunye nengoma emnandi yokubonelela abahlobo bakhe uhambo.
Idayinaso e-orenji yanika umqondiso kubahlobo bayo wokuba ipaseji ikhuselekile.UGreener kunye noRuby bakwiinzwane zabo badlula oonogada bayozela.
Xa uGreener noRuby bangena kwinqaba, babona yonke indawo isipha seelekese.Bavula umnyango, ngamnye, bekhangela igumbi elinomatshini.Ekugqibeleni babona ipaneli yokulawula.
"Ndicinga ukuba ngokusebenzisa le lever sinokukhulula yonke iswekile," utshilo uGreener.
Kodwa kwathi gqi uGabriel emnyango, ephethe ngesandla isiqhushumbisi.
"Yeka!"Wakhwaza.
UGreener noRuby bema bajonga uGabriel.
"Uza kwenza ntoni?"Wabuza uRuby.
"Esi siqhushumbisi siqhagamshelwe kwitanki enkulu yamanzi, kwaye ukuba ndiyayivula, itanki iya kukhupha amanzi kwaye yonke iswekile evela entabeni iya kunyibilika. Awusoze uphinde ukwazi ukwenza ijeli kwakhona," woyikisa uGabriel.
URuby wayeceba icebo entloko.Wayesazi ukuba wayekhawuleza kune-walrus etyebileyo.Watsibela kuGabriel ngaphambi kokuba avule isiqhushumbisi waza waqalisa ukulwa naye.
Ngelixa uRuby noGabriel beziqengqeleka phantsi, uMango wabona ngaphandle kungekho mntu ungenayo.Ngaxa lithile, wabona ijoni eliyiwalrus lisiza kwinqaba.Wayefuna ukulumkisa uMango.Waqalisa ukuvelisa izandi ezifana nentaka engaqhelekanga:
“Gaa!Gaa!Ewe!”
UMango wamjonga, kodwa kwakungekho nto icacileyo kuye.UViolet uphinde:
“Gaa!Gaa!Ewe!”
UMango wayengekamqondi umhlobo wakhe.Uye wanyusa amagxa uViolet wanikina intloko.Waqala wawangawangisa izandla zakhe ekhomba ngakwiwalrus esondelayo.Ekugqibeleni uMango wayiqonda into afuna ayithethe uViolet.Wakhupha ihelmet entloko kunogada wobuthongo wanxiba ibhatyi yonogada.Wema bhuxe uMango ezenza unogada.UWalrus wadlula ngakuye ecinga ukuba uMango ngomnye wabalindi.Banqwala omnye komnye.Xa i-walrus yadlulayo, uMango noViolet baziva bekhululekile.
URuby wayesalwa noGabriel malunga ne-detonator.Ekubeni wayenobuchule obungakumbi, wakwazi ukukhupha isiqhushumbisi esandleni sesela waza wafaka amakhamandi esandleni salo.
"Ndikufumene!"Utshilo uRuby.
Ngelo xesha, uGreener wabamba i-lever waza wayitsala.Amavili aqala ukutsala ityathanga kwaye umqobo omkhulu waqala ukunyuka.UMango kunye noViolet babukela yonke iswekile ikhululwa kwaye baqala ukuhla ukuya kumzi-mveliso.
“Bakwenzile oko!”Wakhwaza uViolet watsibela kwi hug kaMango.
Iindlovu ezazihleli kwisitiya somzi-mveliso zaphawula ukuba isixa esikhulu seswekile sisehla entabeni.Ngoko nangoko baqalisa ukuvelisa ijeli.Ayevuya kuba amagosa afihlakeleyo aye abasindisa.Eyona ndlovu iphambili yabiza inkumba ukuba ize kufuna ilekese.Inkumba yaxelela iingonyama ukuba ziyilinde xa izothulwa.Iingonyama zaxelela unonkala ukuba alungiselele izixa ezitsha zejeli.Unonkala wavakalisa kubo bonke abemi beso sixeko ukuba kuza ukutya ezivenkileni.Izilwanyana zagqiba ekubeni zenze umbhiyozo wombulelo kumaqhawe azo.
Ezitratweni kwafakelwa izitendi ezineentlobo ezahlukeneyo zejeli.Iimveliso ezahlukeneyo zinokufunyanwa apho: ijeli kwijagi engqukuva, ikomityi yejeli yeziqhamo, ijeli yejeli yemoto, ijeli yosapho lweretro, ijeli yetin-tin, ijeli yamaqanda yomlingo, njl.njl. Bonke abahlali banokuthenga incasa abayithandayo kunye nefomu yejeli.
Inkosi uSunny kunye noNkosazana Rose babelinde amaqhawe.URuby wakhokela isela kwi-handcuffs.Wamnikezela kumphathi wakhe.ULanga wafaka uGabriel kwimoto yamapolisa.
"Ukususela namhlanje, uya kusebenza kumzi-mveliso. Uya kuqonda ukuba zeziphi iinqobo ezisemgangathweni kwaye uya kunyaniseka njengawo wonke umntu kwesi sixeko."USanny watsho kuGabriel.
Emva koko inkosi yavuyisana nabameli bayo yaza yabanika iimbasa.Wayalela ukuba kungeniswe eyona nqwelo intle, eyayiza kuthwala amagorha esixekweni.
“Ibiliwonga lam ukusebenza nawe,” uGreener wajonga uRuby.
“Imbeko yeyam,” wancuma uRuby wanikezela isandla kuGreener.
Baxhawulane bangena enqwelweni bobane.Ukusukela ngaloo mzuzu, iidayinaso ezine zaba zezona zizihlobo zilungileyo nokuba ngabalinganiswa abahlukeneyo.Basebenza kunye, bencedisana, bade bahamba kunye kumtshato wenkosi uSunny noMaRose.
