Story Transcript:

Af: Op 'n sonskyn dag in Kaapstad het Johan besluit om 'n piekniek in die pragtige Groenpunt Park te hou.
En: On a sunny day in Cape Town, Johan decided to have a picnic in the beautiful Green Point Park.

Af: Dit was 'n park vol lewe, met kinders wat gespeel het, honde wat blaf, en mense wat op die sagte gras gelê en ontspan het.
En: It was a lively park, with children playing, dogs barking, and people lying on the soft grass and relaxing.

Af: Johan het sy kombers uitgesprei en sy mandjie vol lekkernye geopen.
En: Johan spread out his blanket and opened his basket full of goodies.

Af: Net toe hy 'n hap van sy toebroodjie wou neem, het hy 'n sagte geluid gehoor.
En: Just as he was about to take a bite of his sandwich, he heard a soft sound.

Af: 'n Klein, swart-en-wit dier het nadergesluip.
En: A small, black and white animal was approaching.

Af: "Miaau," het Johan gefluister, dinkende dit is 'n katjie.
En: "Meow," Johan whispered, thinking it was a kitten.

Af: Hy het sy hand uitgesteek om die diertjie te aai.
En: He reached out his hand to pet the little animal.

Af: Op daardie oomblik het Anika, 'n vriendelike meisie met bruin hare wat in die park gedraf het, geskree, "Moet dit nie doen nie!
En: At that moment, Anika, a friendly girl with brown hair who was jogging in the park, shouted, "Don't do that!

Af: Dit is nie 'n kat nie!
En: It's not a cat!"

Af: "Johan was verbaas.
En: Johan was surprised.

Af: Hy het vinnig sy hand teruggetrek, net toe die skunk, wat Anika se troeteldier was, sy stert opgelig het.
En: He quickly withdrew his hand just as the skunk, which was Anika's pet, lifted its tail.

Af: Johan het net betyds besef dat dit 'n fout sou wees om daardie stert te ignoreer.
En: Johan realized just in time that it would be a mistake to ignore that tail.

Af: "O, genade!
En: "Oh, goodness!"

Af: " het hy uitgeroep.
En: he exclaimed.

Af: Anika het nader gehardloop en haar skunk, Bella genoem, opgetel.
En: Anika ran over and picked up her skunk, named Bella.

Af: Sy het verontskuldigend na Johan gelag.
En: She laughed apologetically at Johan.

Af: "Jammer oor die verwarring, maar Bella hier is 'n vriendelike skunk en heeltemal onskadelik.
En: "Sorry for the confusion, but Bella here is a friendly skunk and completely harmless."

Af: " Johan het sy hartklop voel bedaar en kon nie help om te lag nie.
En: Johan felt his heartbeat calm down and couldn't help but laugh.

Af: "Ek het nog nooit 'n troetel-skunk gesien nie," het hy gesê.
En: "I've never seen a pet skunk before," he said.

Af: Van daardie dag af het Johan en Anika vriende geword, dikwels saam in die park piekniek gehou, waar Bella altyd die ster van die vertoning was.
En: From that day on, Johan and Anika became friends, often having picnics in the park together, where Bella was always the star of the show.

Af: En Johan het nooit weer enige swart-en-wit dier vir 'n kat aangesien nie.
En: And Johan never mistook any black-and-white animal for a cat again.
