Just before lunch break, Alizwa is speaking to Khalipha about the conversation she heard between Mr Ngxaka and Mr Dalindyebo.

ALIZWA: Khalipha, chommie. I have to warn you, whatever feelings you might have for Mr Ngxaka, you just might want to step on them with your strongest shoe.

KHALIPHA: I told you I don’t have feelings for the guys. And what do you mean by feelings?

ALIZWA: You are so slow yet so clever! I mean—

KHALIPHA: I know what you mean. I just love annoying you.

ALIZWA: OK. What happened to grumpy Khalipha? I am happy to have my funny Khalipha back.

KHALIPHA: (rolling her eyes) You are so dramatic. Anyways, why are you warning me? Did you hear or see something? Tell me, you know I love teacher gossip.

ALIZWA: Particularly about your crush, ne?

KHALIPHA: No, chommie. Just tell me the news!

ALIZWA: They date schoolgirls.

KHALIPHA: Are you sure? Interesting.

ALIZWA: You sound disappointed.

KHALIPHA: I am not. I don’t have feelings for the guy. We just happened to chat. Anyway, I have one last detention with him, then he will be out of my life.

Tell us: What do you think of teachers ‘dating’ students? Have you ever witnessed that happening?
