You will never guess what happened last week. We were walking to school and we met Dad coming along the road. He wasn’t supposed to be home until Christmas! We were so excited. Nosipho ran to meet him and nearly knocked him over. We wanted to go back home with him but he said we must go to school. We asked him why he was home and how long he would stay. He told us we would find out in the evening, after we had brought the animals in and done our homework. ‘I could not concentrate at all at school, Sipho. I kept wondering what had happened in Johannesburg and why Dad had come back. He looked happy to see us but he also looked sad and tired when he was walking away.’ ‘Yes, I saw that too. I also wondered why he had so many bags but no parcels. You know, at Easter and Christmas, he always comes loaded with parcels and packets full of presents. This time, he was carrying an old kettle and an old blanket.’ When we got home, no one would tell us what was going on. Sipho went to tell Uncle about one of the goats that is still limping. Dad said now that he was home, Sipho must report to him. Grandma said I must still report to her about the chickens. ‘Your father knows nothing about fowls!’ she said so that he could hear.
