Uhlanganiswa yizimpawu, futhi akakho ngempela kulokho ukuphila kwakhe okukunikezayo. Emaphusheni akhe, uPete uyaqhubeka. Kulungile, akufani nokuthi ungu-Don Juan lapho noma yini, kodwa uphathiswe indima eholayo kuhambo ngalunye. Futhi unentokazi ehamba phambili ayibiza nge-Dream Girl. Kukhona ukulandelana kwephupho elincane elijabulisayo eduze nasekuqaleni kwenoveli equkethe laba ababili. Ngeke ngingene kukho, kodwa nakanjani i-Indiana Jones kunezinto ezesabekayo ezilindele u-Pete kanye ne-Dream Girl e-Twin Moon City. Emaphusheni akhe, uPete unendlu enkulu egqumeni, eklanywe futhi yakhiwe kusukela ekuqaleni ngamandla akhe ayingqayizivele. Into ewukuthi uPete akazi nobubanzi obugcwele besipho anaso.

Akuphelanga sikhathi esingakanani ngaphambi kokuba abone ukuthi kunokuningi emaphusheni akhe kunalokho abekucabanga ekuqaleni.

 

 

 

 

Ngokuhamba kweminyaka, i-New Jersey ibiyikhaya lezinto ezimbi kakhulu: labo scumbags baseJersey Shore, uChris Christie, i-Menendez Brothers, futhi mhlawumbe okubi kakhulu….the Jonas Brothers! Kodwa uJames usethula kwesinye isigebengu esibi sangempela esigama linguJean St. Croix.

 

Silethwa endleleni yokuphila yenkosi yezidakamizwa enesihluku yase-St. Croix ngesigcawu esihle, esifaneleka esibonisa indoda egama layo lingu-Manuel. I-St. Croix iqhuba ibhizinisi lezidakamizwa ngaphansi kwesihenqo senkampani yamatekisi. Njengoba ekhohlakele njengoba eyizwe langempela, uSt. Croix, onomoya omubi we-petro loa, mubi nakakhulu ezweni lamaphupho. Useze wazakhela owakhe umphakathi owakha amaphupho amabi obizwa ngokuthi, iTwin Moon City.

Lapha, u-St. Croix uvale imiphefumulo eminingi ebhujiswe amaphupho akhe amabi, okuhlanganisa neDreamwalker. Kufanele futhi nginikeze uRussell James ama-props ngomsebenzi omuhle wokusinika isizinda sokuthi kanjani futhi kungani u-St. Croix, emuva ezweni lakubo (Haiti) efika ekuphathweni i-petro loa ehamba ngegama, i-Cauquemere.

Okuwukuphela kosongo e-St.Croix? I-Dreamwalker.

U-St. Croix, kanye nephupho lakhe elibi, u-Caunquemere, baqala ukufuna nokubhubhisa le-Dreamwalker ngaphambi kokuba abone ubukhulu bamandla akhe.

Ingabe u-Pete angadalula ukuthi ubani futhi yini engemva kwakhe ngaphambi kokuba kuphuze kakhulu? Ingabe uzofinyelela amandla akhe aphelele njengesikhathi se-Dreamwalkerin sokuma ngokumelene namandla obumnyama akhuphukayo abona ukuhweba kwawo okubi kokubili ezweni lamaphupho nakwethu?

U-Russell James usibambe ngesandla asilethe onyakeni omubi ogcwele ukungabaza, ukugodola, uthando oluqhakazayo, kanye nenhlekelele encane…..oh, futhi ngikhulume ngebutho le-St. Croix lamaZombi?

Angiyiboni ingenzi abayishumi abahamba phambili onyakeni (isitatimende esinesibindi uma kubhekwa ukuthi kuyisonto lesithathu kuphela lika-2015!).
