Owesifazane ngamunye uqobo, ngamunye ungumuntu. Kodwa kukhona okuhlanganisa bonke ubulili obuhle, ngokuphathelene nokuthola "isikhulu sakho". Kuyinganekwane kuphela yokuthi u-Ivan-Tsarevich wathumela umnsalo ngesilinganiso esifanele, wamanga le frog, futhi wayenzela le njabulo yokuphila. Abesifazane, ikakhulukazi empilweni yangempela, abahlali benenhlanhla ngaso sonke isikhathi. Ngesikhathi sokusesha kwabo, bahlangabezana nezinhlobo ezihlukahlukene, futhi abaqondi ngaso sonke isikhathi ukuthi ubani ongaqhubeka nokuxhumana naye, futhi kungcono ukuthi uhlale naye. Abahlengikazi baseMelika basiza abesifazane abahle, abacwaninga babo baholela ekuboneni izinhlobo zamadoda abo ubuhlobo babo obufanele bugweme.
Uhlobo lokuqala lwamadoda angafuni ukuchitha isikhathi sabo ezama ukubandakanya ubuhlobo obuseduze nabo ngothando lomuntu, noma umthandi wokudlala ngothando. Abamele ubulili obunamandla baphonswa kalula. Ngokulala kwabo kanye nokukwazi ukujabulisa abesifazane, bangathola kalula abesifazane ukuba bamamukele umlingisi oyifunayo. Ukugxeka ngalokhu, kubalulekile ukukhumbula into eyodwa onayo nayo, ngezinhloso ezahlukene. Owesifazane ulungele ukumnika iminyaka engcono kakhulu yokuphila, amhlomise ngekhaya elihle, abelethe izingane zakhe, ahlale naye isikhathi eside, ngenjabulo zonke izinsuku zakhe, lo muntu uzimisele kuphela ukunakekelwa kowesifazane, ukumbumbuluza ngezindabakwane "ngathi." Qeda yonke ibhanal efanayo, uvuka ngosuku olunye emva komunye ubusuku bothando, uzolinda umbhede we-kofev, kodwa uthole kuphela ukuthula nokungabi nalutho endlini yakho.
Uhlobo lwesibili lwamadoda, alungafani nencazelo yesikhulu ngehhashi elingaphansi, lingama-workaholic. Ekuqaleni, ubuhlobo bungase bubonakale buthembise kakhulu. Ngemuva kwalokho, umuntu osomabhizinisi osebenzela iningi labamele abesilisa ocansini ngokulinganayo uyaphumelela futhi ucebile. Kodwa lapho kuqhubeka ubudlelwane, ukucaca ukuthi yilo kuphela umuntu odinga ukusebenza kuphela; ngenxa yakhe, uzokhipha kalula umhlangano lo wesifazane, akhohlwe ngokuzalwa kwakhe kanye nomkhosi wokugubha usuku usuku lokuzijwayeza . Amadoda anjalo afanelekile njengendlela yokuhlola, kodwa akufanelekile ukuwayeka kuze kube sekupheleni kokuphila, abangeke bakujabulele.
Ngokuphelele akuklanyelwe amadoda okuphila komndeni osondelene nabo. Lo wesilisa udinga isitifiketi somuntu siqu, isondlo somuntu siqu kanye nomqeqeshi, umuntu womuntu siqu kanye ne-cosmetologist, bese kuthi konke okunye. Uhlobo luni lwesifazane oluyothandana uma ehamba naye okhathalela isibalo sakhe, isikhumba, izinwele, njengezhelevnostno njengoba yena ngokwakhe? Ekugcineni, unabangane abanele, obani azoxoxa nabo ngezindlela ezintsha ezintsha zokuzithokozisa kanye nemiboniso yamuva.
Futhi, akusizi ngalutho ukuqala ubudlelwane obunzima namadoda angama-synfantilous, owowesifazane ngamunye obona uMama. Lezi zimo, ikakhulukazi ziheha ikhono labo lokuchitha isikhathi samahhala besodwa. Kodwa ngeke ugcwale ukuzijabulisa. Ukuphila okuhlangene, ngeshwa, akuyona nje ukuzijabulisa, ngezinye izikhathi kunezimo ezidinga izixazululo ezindala neziqaphelayo, ezivela kumadoda anjalo, nje ungalindeli. Ngemuva kwalokho, ukuxazulula izinkinga aninazo, zakatoru njalo ungakwazi ukufihla.
Noma kunjalo, akuyona indlela engcono kakhulu, uma uthola umgxeka umuntu. Kuye, konke kuhlale kungalungile, ulungele ukuveza iqiniso ngaso sonke isikhathi nakubo bonke, ungacabangi ukuthi kungcono yini ukulalela abanye, nokuthi ngabe badinga yini umbono wakhe. Angakwazi abantu ukugxeka ukubonakala kwendoda yakhe, noma ngesikhathi esithile ku-movie ngokukhululeka athi akasithandi. Inkinga ukuthi indoda enjalo ayikho lapho engacabangi ukuthi amazwi akhe awagcini nje ukulimaza owesifazane wakhe, kodwa umane amthobise.
Ngaphezu kwakho konke okungenhla, ngingathanda ukukhomba olunye uhlobo lwamadoda, ukwakha ubuhlobo obunzulu obuhle kakhulu, obuzoba nzima kakhulu. Lo muntu "umphefumulo wenkampani." Uthakazelisa kakhulu futhi uyajabulisa, uhlale ejabule futhi ehlale ebalahle. Inkinga eyinhloko kula madoda iwukuthi ikhetha ukuchitha ukunakekelwa kwabo nokuzijabulisa hhayi ekhaya nemindeni yabo, kodwa kwezinye izindawo phakathi kwabangani - ama-comrades, futhi mhlawumbe ingilazi yobhiya.
Eceleni komuntu onjalo, umfazi, kaningi kunalokho, wenza ama-Rolquackie waitters endlini yakhe, futhi uzodinga ukondla futhi akhonze abangane bakhe abathembekile, abazokuvakashela ngokuqinisekile nsuku zonke.
