Lo mjikelezo ubiza imali futhi udala imfucuza. Kuthiwani uma bekukhona indlela engcono? Amabhuthi Engadi anikeza enye.

Inhlanganisela yemvelo ye-latex. Yenzelwe ukumelana nama-acid, amafutha, namakhemikhali atholakala ezingadini. Izivundisi? Azidli izinto ezingaphakathi. Ujusi wesitshalo? Azinawo amabala ahlala njalo. Izibulala-zinambuzane? Aziyithambisi irabha. Amabhuzu akho ahlala ehlanzekile futhi ebukeka kahle, izinkathi ngesizini. Umehluko awucacile. Uzowubona okokuqala lapho ugeza izinsalela zomanyolo ezinamathelayo futhi amabhuzu abukeka emasha sha. Kuyamangalisa, akunjalo?

Indawo engenazo izimbobo iyinhloko. Uketshezi alukwazi ukungena. Luyaphakama bese lugoqeka. Ukuhlanza okusheshayo ngepayipi kususa konke—udaka, izinsalela zomanyolo, ujusi wezitshalo onamathelayo. Akukho ukuhlanzwa. Azikho izinto zokuhlanza ezikhethekile. Amabhuzu abukeka sengathi masha ngemizuzwana. Amabhuzu ajwayelekile? Uyahlanzwa futhi uhlanzwe, kodwa amabala awaphumi ngempela. Yikuphi ongathanda ukuba nakho?

Ukwakhiwa okungenamthungo kususa izindawo lapho amakhemikhali angacasha khona. Amabhuzu athungiwe anemithungo ebamba izinhlayiya zomanyolo kanye nemfucumfucu yezitshalo. Lezo zinsalela zidla kancane kancane izinto ngaphakathi. Awukwazi ukubona umonakalo kuze kube sekwephuzile! Amabhuzu anamathelisiwe anezibopho ezihlulekayo uma evezwa kumakhemikhali engadini.

Amabhuzu Asengadini akunikeza leso sithiyo—akukho okuhlukile.

Abalimi basitshele izindaba zabo. Owesifazane othile uthe amabhuzu akhe amadala aqhekeka ezindaweni ezithambile ngemva kwesizini eyodwa yokusebenzisa umanyolo wemvelo. Ama-asidi kumquba adla irabha. Wayethenga amabhuzu amasha njalo entwasahlobo. Amabhuzu akhe amasha? Iminyaka emithathu futhi asabukeka emasha. Omunye wathi amabhuzu akhe ayezomunca ujusi wezitshalo futhi abe namathela. Ujusi wawudonsa ukungcola futhi awuzange uhlanzwe. Wazama konke: insipho, izinyibilikisi, ngisho nomshini wokuwasha umfutho. Akukho okwasebenza. Amabhuzu akhe amasha axosha konke.
