FULL SUMMARY:
Chapter 11 sees Dewald hosting Beesbal, Nomaswazi, and Karlien at his house for the first time. The enthusiastic mother busies with snacks, while the father assigns himself to grilling duties. The group convenes in Dewald's room after the meal, where he introduces his brainchild of the Schmetterling-idea (Germany nickname, meaning butterfly) – creating cards with a QR code and Schmetterling symbol. Recipients, victims of bullying, would scan the code and enter a secret password 'vl13g', choosing an alias name, and potentially joining an anti-bullying group. To retain anonymity, recipients are advised to secure or destroy the card. Dewald showcases a forum webpage design featuring a girl shushing, a butterfly resting on her finger; it's well-received, symbolizing a safe space with the butterfly as a beacon of hope. The next to-do is drafting content. Nomaswazi shares a list focusing on victims' solidarity and the power of numbers; Beesbal shares preventive methods against bullying; Karlien suggests a butterfly hand signal as a sign of support, mimicking a butterfly's flutter, for bullying victims. As the group practices, Dewald visualizes global learners standing united against bullying, deriving strength and belief from each other. This unified humanity tributes to Nicola's fondness for butterflies, intensifying Dewald's longing for her.

Hoofstuk 11: Dewald, Beesbal, Nomaswazi, en Karlien kuier by Dewald se huis, braai, en bespreek hul Schmetterling-boelie-ondersteuningsprojek. Dewald se maats onderskryf die idee en hulle werk aan die implementering van die plan, insluitend QR-kodes, skuilname, en 'n geheime handgebaar. Dewald droom wêreldwyd hulp.
FULL SUMMARY:
In hoofstuk 11, kuier Beesbal, Nomaswazi en Karlien die eerste keer by Dewald se huis. Se braai saam en bespreek hul Schmetterling-idee, 'n projek om boelie-slachtoffers by die skool te ondersteun. Dewald se ouers verwelkom die gaste, met sy pa wat die braai beheer en sy ma wat snacks voorberei. Ná ete trek hulle na Dewald se kamer waar hulle begin werk aan die Schmetterling-inisiatief. Dewald toon sy maats 'n QR-kode, wat, as dit gescan word, toegang gee tot 'n ondersteuningsgroep vir boelie-slachtoffers. Hierdie kode sal op 'n kaartjie met die Schmetterling-simbool geplaas word, gegee aan diegene wat gebully word en hulle kan dan by die groep aansluit. Nomaswazi stel voor dat na toetreding, lede die kaartjie moet verbrand. Hulle bespreek ook die belangrikheid van 'n skuilnaam vir elke lid en die vermoë om boelie-slachtoffers in te lig dat hulle nie alleen is nie. Om boelies te voorkom, suggeer Beesbal dat slagoffers nie onnodige aandag moet trek nie, nie moet wys dat boelies hulle ontstel nie, en enige lelike opmerkings ignoreer. Karlien stel 'n geheime handgebaar voor - 'n nagemaakte skoenlapperbeweging - wat die groepslede as teken van solidariteit kan toon as hulle sien iemand word geboelie. Die hoofstuk sluit af met Dewald wat hom inbeeld hoe die skoenlapper-idee wêreldwyd gebruik kan word om boelie-slachtoffers te ondersteun, en ook sien hoe dit kan help met huislike probleme. Dewald voel 'n intense verlange na Nicola en waardeer die hoop en lewe wat die skoenlapper simboliseer.
