M'chipinda chochezeramo kapeti wofiira, womwe poyamba munadzadza ndi macheza osangalatsa a okwera, tsopano akungodzazidwa ndi kulira kofewa kwa nkhunda zomwe zimakhala pamwamba pa denga.
Matailosi ndi zosungunulira zinali kusweka ndipo ogwira ntchitoyo anafunsidwa kuti achoke pamalo olandirira alendo, zomwe zimawoneka ngati zenizeni kotero kuti simungathe kuwona mitengo yamatabwa kumbuyo kwake mpaka mutadutsapo chifukwa "imapangitsa malowo kuwoneka aakulu kuposa momwe alili." “. izi ndi zabwino".

Kenako adagulitsa zida zonse zapabwalo la ndege. Chotsatira chake chinali mthunzi chabe wa mzukwa pansi pa chimodzi mwa zipinda zomwe carousel yonyamula katundu inayimapo kale. Kumene kunali malo otetezeka kaamba ka katundu yense wofufuzidwa, galimotoyo yatumizidwa kwa nthaŵi yaitali ku nyumba yake yatsopano.
