down
Linomtha: "I will be right back" I quickly went outside and called my driver he answered after the first ring
Linomtha: "I need you to come back now"
Driver: "I am on my way"
I walked back inside
Linomtha: "Guess what? You guys are going to sleep in town with me tonight so get ready and pack your stuff"
Mama Ka Linomtha: "No Lino, they are going to school tomorrow we are not going anywhere"
Ntosh: "Mama yhuuu mo so we can pack our school stuff hai i mama i yhoo fire fire to that spirit within you sakgatalelo
Sihle joined in and they were shouting fire fire ko Mama Ka Linomtha
Linomtha: You see we didn't have anything but we had each other and that's how we survived years of hardships. "Ok stop it you two maan" I was laughing and mama ka Lino told them to go and pack their school stuff for tomorrow after I told her my driver will drop them off and at the hotel they don't mind people sleeping over.
My driver arrived and we took the stuff I got and left.
We arrived at the hotel and the look on my siblings face was priceless they were just asking so many questions and they were over excited, but they don't want to leave, they want to sleep here until I go back to Johannesburg.
we hardly slept, we were just talking throughout the night and before we knew it was morning and they had to go.
I was so happy I made their day.
weeks went by and I was busy working on the case but still made time for visits.
it was now Monday, the day of my court date.
I arrived at court and mamaka Lino was there with me for support. When we got there we found Baba Ndlovu and Mama Ndlovu as well. Mama was so happy to see Baba Ndlovu and meet Mama.
Ndlovu and they just hit it off instantly. It was so packed well more than packed than the last time. My nerves were kicking in.
The medical officer came and the prosecutor asked him questions and now it was my turn to get up and cross examine him.
I got up and looked behind me and seen such a crowd got me really scared. I started shaking and my voice just couldn't come out. No he is no way I can do this, I am not cut out for this I can't talk. I went blank I just forgot everything.
Magistrate: "I can't stand for this, I won't have somebody wasting the state's time.
