Ndihlala ndilikhumbula igama lakhe, kwaye bendihlala ndikhumbula ubuso bakhe, kwaye bendingazi nto ingako ngaye, kodwa ebebonakala ngathi wahlukile kwaba abanye abantwana endizakubabona bedlala. Kwaye isimilo sakhe yinto endiyisekeleyo kwingoma ethi 'Luka'. Kwingoma, inkwenkwe uLuka ngumntwana oxhatshazwayo- Kubomi bokwenyani andicingi ukuba wayenjalo. Ndicinga ukuba wayehlukile. '

Umbandakanya njani umphulaphuli? Uyazazisa: 'Igama lam ndinguLuka.' Kwaye 'ndihlala kumgangatho wesibini, ndihlala phezulu ukusuka kuwe,' kwaye ke ngenxa yoko ubandakanya umphulaphuli. 'Ndicinga ukuba undibonile ngaphambili,' ke uqala ukumamela. Uzoba umphulaphuli eze kweli lizwe ngolwazi olulula kakhulu, olusisiseko. Kwaye iyaqhubeka ukuxela ingxaki ungakhange utsho ukuba yintoni ingxaki. Le yayiyingxaki yam njengombhali wengoma: Ndilunika njani olu lwazi ndingakhange ndilunike?
