Lufuno Mukwevho
Important actions
Moving to Cape Town, Lufuno enrolls in a new school.
Bullying occurs, but Lufuno learns to defend herself.
Behind her parents' backs, Lufuno begins dating Mandla.
At the playground, where thugs try to terrify them, Lufuno discreetly meets Mandla.
It falls to Mandla's father to save them.
She goes into the road after a party and almost gets hit by a taxi.
Mandla helps her out.
Relationships
She is the primary character of the book, Mandla's girlfriend, and Tshilidzi's older sister.
Character qualities
Lufuno is thoughtful, romantic, and clever.
She creates fictional films because she has a vivid imagination and does so to amuse herself
and her younger sister Tshilidzi.
In the story, Lufuno is essentially always bold and loving.
Through the tales she shares and the trees she plants, she preserves the memory of Dudu.
She is Mandla's devoted girlfriend.
Physical description
Lufuno has cornrow braids and dusky skin.
The wigs and weaves on the other girls are intricate.
Changes
Lufuno develops the ability to confront the boys who are bullying her and shouts back at them.
More significantly, Lufuno understands that Dudu is gone and that caring for her family who are
still alive and well is more important than using her imagination.
Instead of dwelling (thinking about) the past, she learns to live in the present.
Mandla Nkosi
Important actions
Mandla must be close with Lufuno because she keeps his bracelet.
She comes to like him thanks to him.
Mandla challenges Dumi and his pals.
Even though Sindi is the coolest girl in the school, he still rejects her.
Mandla isn't afraid to stand out.
Mandla disputes with his father on the obligations placed on him as the chief's son in the rural
districts.
Mandla continues to see Lufuno despite his father's objections.
Most importantly, Mandla saves Tshilidzi from the burning house, making him a hero in the fire.
