The story centers around a young boy named Daluxolo, or Dali, who eagerly anticipates the arrival of his father, Tata, every weekend. Despite invitations to play with friends, Dali prefers to wait at the gate on Fridays after school, watching for Tata's white VW Beetle to come down the road. The joyful reunion between father and son is filled with shared activities like enjoying Mama's home-cooked meals, jogging around the neighborhood, learning card games, and listening to the radio. These cherished moments underscore the close bond they share, although Sundays bring a bittersweet goodbye as Tata returns to work. However, the cycle of anticipation and reunion provides comfort to Dali, knowing that each week will culminate in another beloved weekend with Tata.
