Hoe kies 'n seun tussen sy ouers? En hoe gemaak as daar 'n mooi
meisiekind ook in die prentjie kom? Johannes, sy ma en sy broer
Petrus woon op Clanwilliam. Vir die Desembervakansie gaan kuier

met sy nuwe vriend Frikkie beleef nie, maar ook 'n meisie ontmoet
wat sy hart laat hamer. Johannes voel al hoe meer dat hy graag
permanent by sy pa wou kom bly, maar hy kom gou agter dat alles nie
altyd eenvoudig is nie, en dat daar dalk 'n goeie rede is waarom sy
ma moes weggaan.
