Linomtha: The offer was way more than I had expected, I was going to get R480 000 pa. With this money I was going to be able to take out mama ka Linomtha out of that mud house and be able to send my siblings to varsity. I really want Sihle and Ntosh to get the best things in life, I don't want them to suffer like I did.
I finished all the paperwork with Hr then moved to the IT department and they gave me my laptop with 3G I got my login details. Mr Ndlovu walked in just as I was about to go
MrNdlovu: He greeted the guys and looked at me "Are you done"
Linomtha: "Yes"
MrNdlovu: "Come with me to my office"
We walked to his office, it was way too big for one person.
MrNdlovu: "Are you done with the stuff that you need to sort out?"
Linomtha: I took out my guideline book that I received from Mrs Muller "No I still have to meet the two senior attorneys who train newly appointed attorneys
Mr Ndlovu: "Ow it's Lerato and Tiyani. I have already notified them that I will be training you myself and that I have also assigned you a case to work on"
Linomtha: "Ok, so I don't have to go and meet them?"
Mr Ndlovu: "No that won't be necessary, look you need to start working on Dr Walaza's case because you are going to represent him in two weeks time" he handed me the file
Linomtha: "Mind if I start looking at this now?"
Mr Ndlovu: "Not at all, go right ahead. It's your case after all"
I started going through the file. I studied the case study he prepared, his notes with Dr Walaza. I was still busy analysing it.
Raise walked in
Raise: "Haibo Bra Moss it's lunchtime and you're keeping the poor girl here"
Mr Ndlovu: "Hawu I didn't realize it was lunchtime already I am busy working on a presentation"
She came and grabbed me by my hand
Raise: "Don't let him intimidate you otla bola yaketlala ontse ole busy on netsi mosebetsi (You will die of hunger while you're busy looking at work)"
Mr Ndlovu: "Hai Manje uyacalangale language yakho Raise ungiyisa Botswana manje, uthini? (Now you're starting with your language Raise, you're taking me to Botswana now. What are you saying)
Raise: "Hai Bra Moss I have been trying to teach you Tswana for years now you are just ignorant njemara minangiya kwazi ukukhuluma (But I can speak Zulu), I was saying goodbye we going out for lunch"
Mr Ndlovu: "Wait" he took out a R200 note and gave us "You will buy lunch"
Raise: "Ow Nkulunkulu Jehova sibonga u Linomtha manje sithola imali yama lunch (Ow Lord we thank you for Linomtha now we are receiving lunch money)" she was clapping her hands
