Chapter 1 | The parable of a dishonest friend

Chapter 1

The parable of a dishonest friend

Once; there was a man who was firmly attached to a certain woman in terms of friendship.

A loyal man he was and indeed a man of honesty and integrity. As her own kind of challenge; the woman lured him into trusting her by glittering her face with innocence and a marvelous smile decorating her face.

They both participated in the friendship but with different individual effort. Noticing how nice and humble the man is: she decided to confess "wow I've never met someone like you before, you so cool and down to earth.... in fact ...like.....i don’t know hey. She then decided to take advantage of the situation and started to make demands.

She could always ask favors from the guy like; can you please buy me this and that, can you please lend me some money and all what a woman could ever ask from a man.

The man could hardly say no to her demands, he was obedient enough to meet them all. It came to pass that one day the man was in need of a favor:

She asked the woman and said can you please meet me at the park so we can catch up I’m bored she gladly accepted the offer and promised to meet him at the agreed time.

After waiting for so long, the man decided to make a call; she then answered shame a-skies i forgot, i was busy with something else and it just slipped my mind I’m sorry the man answered worry not my dear; as long as you remain a teacher i will be a good student to you not knowing what he meant, she smiled and said ncoooo... thank you.

Another day came; as they were working together, the man called Zihle! I’m without a lunchbox today can you please dish up for two?

She said alright then no problem Zinhle could not go to him during lunch on that day, she defended herself by saying her friends were all over her that she couldn't even had a space to breathe and promised to make it up to him as she asked for an apology.

The man looked at her with a soft smile and said "don’t worry about it, as long as you remain a teacher; i will be a good student to you and he left.
