FULL SUMMARY:
In Chapter 11 of 'Veldiep', Tim Muller engages in his Sunday morning routine with his family, eating breakfast and attending the community church. His mind strays from the service, scanning for any new faces, particularly of the mysterious girl from the night before, whom he recalls only as the dog-owner, Amber. Shrugging off his mother's curious questioning, Tim is preoccupied with thoughts of Amber and her dog, Oreo, comparing their unusual encounter to a scene from a film. He debates sharing the experience with his film-enthusiast friend, Edgar, but decides against it, fearful of enduring school rumors. Post-service, Tim waits outside for his father, who is mingling with some people. Amidst this wait, he spots Jessica, his ex-girlfriend, with a boy he recognizes from school named Janu. Notably a year senior to them and the current rugby captain, Janu is seen laughing at Jessica's comments while wrapping his arm around her. Stricken by shock and a jolt of heartache at the sight of them together, Tim grapples with this revelation, eventually attributing Jessica's attraction to Janu's impending ownership of a car. Frustrated and increasingly isolated, Tim leaves the area, burdened by the replaying image of Jessica and Janu together.

FULL SUMMARY:
In Hoofstuk 11 ondergaan Tim sy gewone Sondagoggend-ritueel met sy ma. Na hulle ligte ontbyt, stap hulle saam na die gemeenskapskerk op die landgoed waar hulle woon. Hy kyk rond in die kerk, in die hoop om die nuwe meisie wat hy die nag voorheen ontmoet het, te sien. Tim word herinner aan haar en haar hond, Oreo, terwyl hy in die kerk sit. Hy besluit om nie sy vriend, Edgar, van haar te vertel nie, uit vrees dat die storie op skool versprei kan word. Na die diens, wag Tim buite op die gras vir sy pa, terwyl sy ma en Marli vooruit huis toe gaan om met middagete te begin. Sy gedagtes keer terug na die nuwe meisie, maar hy word onderbreek deur die verskyning van sy eksvriendin, Jessica. Met skok sien hy haar saam met 'n ander ou, Janu, 'n matriekleerling en rugbyspeler by sy skool, wat bekend is vir sy opschepperij en arrogansie. Tim sien hoe Jessica om Janu se arm leun en dit veroorsaak 'n intense skok en pyn binne hom. Veral wanneer hy besef dat Janu binnekort sy eie motor gaan hê, iets wat hy meen 'n trekkingspunt vir Jessica kon wees. Die beeld van Jessica en Janu saam pla hom terwyl hy alleen staan en wag vir sy pa.
