school fees
it was on Monday morning, Umal was seated in the classroom, close to Bwemana, after the school Assembly, the head mistress Mrs kung work into the classroom with Mr Daniel, holding a list on his hand and a cane, ready to beat the pupils who didn't pay their second semester fees, I breath heavily because I was one of them, as Mr Daniel start calling the pupils out who names were on the list, he called my name Umal John, I shamefully step forward. Mrs Kung ask us to step outside the class, we did just that, before Mr Daniel start whipping the pupils, It was my turn to received mine, and to be sincere i was already angry, because the school was not being fair to us, beating us, does not pay them their school fees. I straight forth my hands, he whip me four times, and ask us to go back to the class and pick up our bags and go home. with anger and tears on my face I work to the class pick my bag and my books on the table, before going, though the remaining pupils were already laughing and making mockery of us. I headed straight home hoping to meet with my mom, but she has already left for work.
