Ndigqibe kwelokuba utata wam ukukhulula isiseko sendlu endala eseleyo kwisiza. Kwaye ekubeni iminyaka engazange ivume ukuba ufeze le nto, waqesha i-tajiks. Kwaye ndaye ndatyelela ngandlela ithile ndabona ukuba abasebenzi ngandlela thile musa ukutshisa ngomnqweno wokusebenza ngokwasemzimbeni. I-brigadier yabo - indoda eneminyaka engamashumi amahlanu inyibilikisile i-sweetsem, kwaye abanye bafundise amatye kwinkunkuma.
-Atata, kwaye yintoni onayo yabasebenzi abasebenzi? Awubhatali, okanye yintoni? -Ndiguqukele kuTata.
- Kutheni ungakhali? Ndiyakhala, kunjalo. Bafumana imali ngenani lomsebenzi, kwaye hayi ngelo xesha.
- Ewe, kuya kuba nokusebenza ngakumbi, ujonga, kwaye ugqibile ngokukhawuleza. Leliphi ixesha lokutsala, elingaqondakaliyo ...
-Kho unyana, ukuba ulumkile kangaka, hamba uyenze ngokwakho.
- Kulungile, ndiza kuya! -Ndihlukane.
Ndabamba i-s yesibini enesibini kwaye yaqala ukuba ne-dare ukubetha isiseko. Malunga nemizuzu engamashumi amabini, ndakwazi ukwahlula inani elilinganayo lelitye njengeTajik yakudala.
- Apha, Tata, jonga, ungasebenza ngokukhawuleza! Ndathi kuba utata, ndisindisa ebunzini bakhe.
-Onwabile, ndiyabona, ndibona ... kwaye ukhawuleze into?
-Ngoku siza kuphumla kancinci kwaye siyaqhubeka.
Ndiye ndahlala phantsi, ndafudukela kancinci, ndaphinda ndaphinda ndafaka isiseko sekhonkrithi. Ngeli xesha imikhosi yam yanele imizuzu elishumi, kwaye izinto ezibonakalayo zayo zaza zaza zaza zaza zazala. Ngeli xesha, i-tajik emdala kwelinye icala lesiseko isalinganiswa ngesizibi sakhe. Ndihlale ixesha elide ndisesizileni. Kuba imini yonke ndakwazi ukufezekisa ivolumu yomsebenzi ofanayo njenge-rigadier yeeTajiks.
Ngorhatya bendihleli ebhentshini kwaye andinakuhamba, izandla zam azizange zisebenze konke konke, kwaye umqolo awuzange ubekeke. Kwaye i-bligadier yakudala isuse zonke izixhobo, zanceda abanye ukuba benze ngeingxowa zekhonteyina ngenkunkuma, batshintsha kwiingubo ezicocekileyo, baza bangena kwimpahla yesidlo sangokuhlwa.
Ngoku ndiyayikhumbula le tajik yabantu abadala ngalo lonke ixesha kufuneka ndenze umsebenzi onzima okanye owonwabileyo.
