“Vince, what are you doing? That’s Dion’s phone. Where’d you get it?” asked the little Dave when he saw Vincent pull it out and fiddle on it.
“Where do you think I got it? From his bags, of course. I’m calling someone, anyone on this phone. If it doesn’t work, then we’ll have to sell his stuff,” answered Vincent as he carefully navigated the phone in his hands. “Gee, Dave, I saw really cool stuff in his bag. You know we could get rich.” Vincent, shortly, gazed into sky to show that he was thinking, “I have an idea. A business idea. Ow, the things we could do with that money.” And then he got back to searching through the phone. “Only one number? I wonder who this is.” The numbers were not saved. Vincent saw them on the call page. He put the phone against his ear. “Hello?”
Through the phone came a voice, “Dion?”
“No, it’s… It&

When morning came Vincent showed into the kitchen very worn out. He found Mpumi and Dave making tea and buttered bread. Mpumi did not expect to see him like that, “Vincent, what is it?” she went and reached for his forehead to check for his temperature.“I’m not sick,” he pulled down her hand. “Dion wouldn’t let me turn off the light the entire night.”Mpumi felt a bit bad about that. She remembered Dion’s fear of the dark. She realised she should not have sent the child to that room.“I can’t sleep with the lights on. Who can, anyway? Even Dion, himself, did not sleep the entire night too.”“Come.” She pulled him into the kitchen. “Sit down there with Dave. We made breakfast.”Sitting down, “Hi, Dave.”“Hi, Vincent.”“Can you pass me my cup, please?”“There.”“Thank you. I

Somewhere across the street was a gang of young men. They loved that corner, Mpumi knew them well. They were the thugs of the town. All the crimes happening in that area, the community knew well to suspect them first. It was a pity that none of the community members had any evidence to pin against them and send them to jail.These troublesome young men sat in a circle and passed around the weed they were smoking. “No, I heard she chased them all out,” one in their crowd had argued. He was addressing the men’s allegations about Mpumi. “Her aunties and uncles left immediately after the funeral. She wouldn’t let them stay any longer.”“I don’t think I’d loved them around either! The grief would never end!”“Actually, she didn’t know them, and they didn’t know her.” He was addressing them again, “She was angered by how big the family actually was, when none of them were seen du

After a long day on campus, Mpumi returned home. She went straight to her room and she started sobbing. Dion could hear her sobs from the other room. He listened carefully. He sat up straight facing towards the light through the curtains. He was drawn to her cries.………………………………………………………………………………………..Bowman was rushed to hospital. When his personal doctor heard news that Bowman had been admitted into the hospital he spread the news across family members, friends and the helps in UK.

Mpumi had left the kids and Dion on the bench. She wanted some privacy. When she finally felt comfortable with the distance she created from her friends, she led out a cry that shook the birds off the trees and rouse concern from the passers nearby. Dion was shocked to have heard the cry. That made him realise that his senses had strengthened. He realised how he had been paying close attention to every detail of noise in his surrounding lately. That must have heightened his auditory senses.The journey continued shortly. “This is where we stop.” She said soon after she saw a piece of open land between houses. She could see a home for them already. She let the bags down. Vincent copied, and Dave did the same. Dion only held against his nose. He was not pleased with the smell of the area—he couldn’t see it but he could smell it. It was horrible. There was dump in the area. The air reeked of the dump, sewage and smoke. Dion felt like he would puke. Mpumi

Vincent had offered Dion some of the bread in the house, he attempted to put it in his hands but Dion only snapped, “Get your hands off me.”Vincent was so shocked that he even pounced back. It was strange to hear Dion speak. Vincent never expected Dion to ever speak again and that was because Dion had been quiet for days now. He only kept to himself. To make things worse, Dion had refused to eat—for many days now. He only accepted water, and that was it.…………………………………………………………………………………………….Bowman was not getting better, emotionally. He felt his heart harden by each day, but still, he would not allow his tears out.I cannot cry, because if I cry it means I give up. I can

Dion asked for food for the first time. He had already began losing weight and it was worrying everyone in the home. For Dion to finally speak up and ask for, was truly an improvement. -**He hasn’t eaten for many days. **- “Give me something. Anything, and I will eat. I will not throw it at your face. I will not yell at you. I will not trouble you. I just want to eat.” She got on it right away. He heard her bang the plates, and fiddle with the spoons. “Please and thank you,” he said. She did not know a Dion like that. She stared at him for a while. She saw nothing suspicious on his face. He was very genuine. -**Why is he like this? He must be sick. **- “You’re lucky, there’s rice left from lunch,” she went and gave him the dish. She helped him find the spoon. She started checking his temperature. “Mpumi! Mpumi, the water’s done!” she heard the boys cry out. She quickly run out. ………….. Someday Mpumi returned from campus,

Liam found Daphne at the balcony. She was weeping. She did not hide away from him. She was always honest with him. “He could be alive.”“Liam, nobody knows that. Don’t attempt to calm me down like that.”“You’re right. But you have to take it easy. You still have us. We’re all around, you know.”“You can’t ask me to move on so fast. Liam, you know I drove him away from his father. He left because of me!”Sudden noises interrupted; Liam knew he had to go check what was happening. There was an intrusion of new voices in the other room. It sounded like it was happening in the living room. But at the same time, Daphne needed his comfort. He was conflicted.“It’s okay, Liam.” Daphne sent him off, “Go.”Liam found Shannon and Kefentse having an argument with the new guard, Joseph. They had been branded as intruders because the new gu

Mpumi was still preparing to go out with Dion. It was yet another day to beg. She was packing the breakfast plates away.“I’m sorry,” she heard Dion say.“Dion?”“I never treated you right.”“I never held a grudge.”“I was bad.”“You didn’t know better.”He took a deep breath to start opening up, she saw the tear run down his eye, “All my life… Listen, I haven’t been a good person.”Mpumi knew that he wanted to talk. She knew that it was right to be an ear to someone who wanted to speak up about something. She learnt that it was trust. He had grown to trust her. She remained silent that while.“I made people suffer without thinking twice about it. Men and women with children, with responsibilities. I was horrible. I didn’t help anyone with all the resources I had; I also didn’t think that I would
