Thabang

This story is about Percy, a man visited by an unusual and mysterious figure named Thabang. Thabang, appearing as a child-like figure only visible to Percy, introduces himself as a friend, despite Percy not asking for one. Over time, Percy finds himself confiding in Thabang, who brings him comfort, joy, and companionship during moments of sadness and stress. Thabang’s presence is both peculiar and heartwarming, as he becomes an essential source of emotional support for Percy. Although Percy’s nephew is initially terrified and sceptical of Thabang's existence, he eventually starts to show some level of acceptance, despite not being able to see him. Thabang’s role becomes clear: he is a symbol of hope and happiness, appearing only when Percy needs him most, offering a sense of peace and laughter in times of sorrow.
