MAN MET INKOPIES
1. With a frown (frons), I see that the price of milk has increased
(opgegaan) again (weer).
2. And because I can do nothing (niks) about it (daaraan) or change
(verander) it, I take (vat) the 2% milk with a resigned (gelate) look
and go look for (soek) a box of fish. There is the usual (gewone)
five o’clock activity (geskarrel) in the supermarket. An unfamiliar
(onbekende) girl walks by (verby) me and a woman wonders out
loud (hardop) in Xhosa about the vegetable (groente) prices. I
wish they would (wil) do something (iets) about that (daardie)
music. And the jingles. Do people even (ooit) listen to it (daarna)?
I feel irritated and walk by a poster that is advertising some or the
other (een of ander) necessity (noodsaaklikheid).
3. I see the man’s old brown jacket (baadjie) first (eerste).
4. He dropped (laat val) something. I glance (blik) at his feet and his
shoes and the pants (broek) with the cement stains
(sementvlekke). He avoids (kyk mis) my eyes, this worn piece
(stukke) of cloth (lap) with a human (mens) inside of it (binne-in).
He limps (stap halfmankerig) away (weg).
5. I turn around (draai om) to the bakery. “Don’t you have
wholewheat today? What? Tomorrow only (eers)?” I feel
cornered (vasgekeer). I need to get out of here.
6. People are talking loudly (hard) by the deli and the salads (slaaie)
lay untouched (ongestoord) behind (agter) the display windows
