By die stil maanlig strand, in die hart van winter, lê ‘n klein, warm kafee wat aanloklike geure uitstraal.

Ons het nie baie spaar geld nie.

We don't have much spare money."

”Pieter, sit stil en luister, sy glimlag steeds vasgeplak op sy gesig al voel hy nie lekker nie.

“En jy sien nie die risiko’s nie!

"And you don't see the risks!"

” antwoord Fanie.

He confesses about his health.

“Ek’s siek,” sê hy.

"I'm sick," he says.

“Ek weet nie hoe lank ek nog kan aanhou werk nie.
