- Marish! - ilizwi eliqhelekileyo elibizayo libizayo, ndidlulela umzimba wam umzimba. Ukuguquka ndabona uthando lwam kuqala kunye kuphela. USergei akazange atshintshe nantoni na, efana nomhle, enhle, engenawo umgqomo ngaphezu komlomo wakhe.
- Sawubona! - Beka iingubo ezivaliweyo emlonyeni wam! Ukubamba ehlathini kukukhumbuza.Sasineminyaka eli-16 ubudala xa iintsapho zethu zafudukela ezakhiweni ezintsha kwaye saba ngaba melwane, kwaye ngoko ke abathandana abaselula kunabo bonke abendlu. Ewe, abazali bam abazange baqikelele, siyiintsapho eziqhelekileyo: umama ungumgcini-mali kwi-kindergarten, utata ungumsebenzi wezityalo. Kodwa abazali bakaSergei, elinye ibali: umama-ugqirha wengane, utata - umakhi, udade osekhulile-igqwetha, inyaniso, andithandwanga. Kodwa uthando lwaluqine! Isikolo siphumelele kwaye apha kukho umbuzo-apho uhamba khona, ndineendlela ezimbini - ugqirha oncedisayo okanye umthungci. Akayekanga ukuqala. Kodwa uSergei wayelindele ubomi obuhluke ngokupheleleyo - intatheli: edumeleyo, kodwa enye inzuzo-eyunivesithi inkulu!
- ndiza kulinda! - Ndandixolisa ebusuku, ndonwabela isithandwa sam sithandwa, singazi malunga neemvavanyo zothando lwethu. USeryozha washiya kwaye izifundo zam zaqala. Sasineentombazana enkundleni, kodwa kumntu othandekayo ... Wazisa iifoto ezininzi, apho kwakukho ubuhle obuhle kunye naso, xa ndiqala ukukhathazeka. Ngomnyaka wesithathu wokufundisisa - ibhola evela eluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka - ndikhulelwe! Uvuyo lwam aluyena umda-apha ndiza kuthatha ikhefu lokufunda, ndiya kwintanda yam, kwaye kuya kuba nantoni na eyenzekayo!
Ndakhawuleza ndaya kwisikhululo - ndandifuna ukuhlangana noSergei kuqala ndize ndixelele, kodwa into endiyibonayo yamkhathaza! Wahamba ngesibambiso kunye nesilwanyana esibomvu, wayithwala isikhwama sakhe kwaye akazange andiqaphele! Iinyembezi zinyanyisiwe, ndafika ekhaya phakathi kobusuku ndaxelela abazali bam yonke into.
Uza kubeleka, "watsho uTata," awusona owokuqala, awuyikugqibela! " Umama wamnyanzela kum kwaye ndandiyeka iinyembezi zam.
Ngentsasa, emva kokushiya kwikorri-jikelele, ekuboneni umkhwekazi ongaphumelelanga wawungagcinwanga:
- Kutheni, uSeryozha wazisa umtshakazi wakhe kwikomkhulu?
- Ewe! Yaye yintoni na? Ngaba uthatha umfazi ongeyena mfundi ukuba athathe? kwaye wangena ekwindlwini yakhe.
Ngaloo mini ndaqokelela izinto zam ezilula, ndabandinqanda ukuba abazali bam banditsho apho. Ndaya kumyeni, yikho konke. Ugogo, ngokuqinisekileyo, ngeengalo ezivulekile, ndazalela unyana wakhe omncinane uKolenka. Kwaye-emva kweminyaka emi-5, uSergei uphambi kwam. - Kutheni uthula? Njani wena? Umyeni? Bantwana?
- Ndiyabonga, ndilungile, ndodana, umyeni wam akazange asebenze. Yaye unjani?
- Masihlale kwikhofe? Apho kwaye uxoxe!
Ndavuma.
- Emva koko, abazali bakho bathi-kumyeni, ndandithukuthele! Kodwa ndiyayiqonda-uthando lokuqala aluhlali ngonaphakade ... Kwaye ngoku ndinesizungu, kwakukho nabasetyhini, kodwa ndandifuna into enjengawe. Isandla sakhe esibushushu sambethe wam. Ndayigxotha. - Kuthiwani ngomnye, obomvu? Ndakubona ndawonye!
- Ngulo dadewethu! Lida! Ngoko uhambe ngenxa yakhe?
Wajonga emlonyeni wam ukuthuthumela ...
- Nantsi uyisidenge!
Ndandifuna ngokwenene ukuthetha ngamazwi kamama, kodwa ndazibamba, kuba unyana wam ukhula, kwaye andiyazi into endiyayenza ngenjongo yolonwabo.
- Sergei, masihambe, ndifuna ukuthatha unyana wam kwi-kindergarten. Ndifuna ukukuzisa. Isibini esingaqhelekanga sasidlula esixekweni-sahleka, saye sabanga, saza saxubana! Ndonwabile gqitha!
Kwintendelezo yomyezo, ngoko nangoko ndabona uKolya, wagxininisa ukubopha izihlangu zakhe. Ukundibona - ngokukhawuleza wagijima ukuza kudibana. Ebona unyana wakhe, uSergei wayethusa - uKolya omncinci wayengumzekelo kaSergei ebuntwaneni bakhe. Ndaphakama emadolweni, ndolulela izandla zam unyana wam, ndazisa "unyana-cosmonaut" kwonyana wam. Uvuyo oluninzi kunye nokuqhwaba ndizange ndiqaphele umntwana wam yonke iminyaka yakhe emihlanu. Ukukhalela nathi umyezo wonke.
Ukukwazi kunye nogogo nomkhulu wam "i-cosmonaut" kwakungekho mvakalelo! - Ndiyabonga, ntombi! Ndiyabulela kakhulu into yonke - ngunyana wakho, kuba ngumzukulwana wakho! Kwaye ndiyaxolisa - ndandingenangqondo! - ngezinyembezi emehlweni akhe waphenduka umkhwezala.
Kodwa andizange ndiphulaphule, kuba ngaba ngabazali kuphela, siyaqonda ukuba yintoni uthando lwangempela! Ewe, kwaye ndingamcaphukisa njani umfazi ondinike indoda enjalo! Ewe! Sisayine ngokusemthethweni izolo! Kwaye namhlanje, ekhwela umkhulu kayise kwaye eqalela esandleni sikhulu wakhe - wayengumntwana ovuyayo! Yintoni enye into umama ayifunayo?
