Hoor my Lied Page #3

Huge tragedy, isn't it?

What is it?

I want that- its the loveliest horse I've ever seen

Lovely. Do you want to ride it?

I can't- you know that.

The doctor can let you ride in front.

-If you'd like that.

I do, Papa.

- Well, then...

Goodness Caesar, are you crying?

-Shut up, I'll knock your teeth out!

Don't you recognise tragedy? You idiotic bumpkin.

Hi, its David.

I wonder if you could help out this morning.

I have an overwhelming headache.

Good, I'll see you before, then.

Thanks

Morning

-Are the people up yet?

How did you know we're here?

It's your helper

Morning

We came to see how Marietjie's doing.

-We can't stay longer I must go to the office

Not today

-Sorry, there's no alternative.

Can't you collect me later?

-Fine, then you must excuse me.

Have a quick coffee

-No thanks.

I see you have a new car. Any problems with the insurance?

Not really I worked out a way to cancel the debt.

Completely right. You were on my side of the road.

You were leaving.

-No, let's talk this out. Put an end to your guilt and self-loathing.

You don't know where the car was. I was distracting you.

Let's agree that we all share some blame.

No, I refuse to accept that.

-It happened and its over.

Forget about it.

-Please Mornay.

I wanted to invite you to dinner. It's been a long time.

What about Friday night?

You must forgive us.

You sure Mornay won't mind?

He couldn't make it.

I've made a big decision

It was difficult.

It's about Marietjie

I want to send her abroad

The McArthur Institute in America

specialises in such cases.

They can make her well.

And then to save money

I've decided to stop specialising

and to start a general practice.

You think the money will be better?

-I'm convinced.

I'll need to get a new reception.

Would you be interested?

I just don't know.

Remember we've planned to fly along

the coast when the weather's fine.

I want to see how Durban's fish tastes

I don't know when my next free weekend is.

I've quit the hospital.

Say what?

-I'm going to be Dawid's nurse and receptionist.

Funny

It's not a joke, he offered the job

and I accepted.

Looks like if I'm not on my toes

I could surely lose you.
