Lien se Lankstaanskoene by Derick van der Walt

’n Bietjie kultuur

The school play is underway, and Lien invites Tibbey, Roos, and her daughter (who she calls Peroxide), 'tannie Bets,' and her friend 'oom Faantjie' as well as her mom. 'Tannie Bets' convinces Lien's mom to play something on the piano, and at first, she struggles, but when she regains her self-confidence, she plays beautifully. Lien tells Roos that she is a true friend and Roos pinches her on the arm in a warm gesture. Wouter and Riekie invite Lien to celebrate at their house. She accepts the invitation and tells them she is bringing someone, presumably Hein. Lien grabs a bottle of wine and two styrofoam glasses from the table in the school hall and heads toward the pavilion.
