Lindi (17) is a girl who passed matric with flying coloures, her father is a mayor in kzn. Her father is well known as Mr mayor. After matric, lindi was taken to university of johannesburg to study law which was her parents chosen career.
Lindi started at university with potential, confident like any other students. lindi is a smart clever girl but she takes things simple and easy.
She met new friends, though they where not good friends of her kind. Reading and studing was lindi's hobby but since lindi was introduced to a jozi life she is no longer the person she used to be. She started missing classes just to meet up with her friends at clubs drinking and dancing and she started to love that kind of a life more than her real life.
1 year later: lindi failed and she was ashamed to tell her parents. She continued with her studies but stil nothing was changed. actually, she became worse, drinking a lot, clubbing and failing.
Lindi does'nt have a boyfriend in jhb but she never slept alone at night.
2 years later: Since lindi realised that she is pregnant she was no longer visiting at home. She always made excuses when her parents wanted to visit her in jhb.
3 years later, when the baby was born, lindi quit her studies and became a mother. She realised that she ruined her future since there's no more clubbing. She kept everything a secret.
4 years later: The judgement day for lindi. other completed students are happy and excited to go home with their diplomas. lindi insisted to take a taxi to home.
The party is thrown at the mayor's house for the mayor's daughter. Lots of people came to celebrate. After a few hours lindi arrives at home with luggage and her 2 years little daughter. she was so sad and disappointed, her face was down, tears were flowing.
Mother: what's wrong my dear?
Mr mayor: tears of joy, stop crying and show us ur diploma.
Lindi: wiped out her tears and looked straight to her parents's eyes and she said nothing.
The baby cried.
Mother: who is she? pointing to the child.
Mr mayor: lost temper, raised his voice, lindi where the hell is your diploma?
Lindi: mom, dad... this is what i worked on for the whole four years, i failed till i quit, this is my reward, My Diploma... (""baby named Diploma""")
