THE SHAMBA BOY
I looked at Miriam who was keenly looking at Ken as if she had something to say about him or to him.
“Miriam, what is in your mind?” I asked her.
“Ken, are you sure you never went up to form four?” Miriam asked Ken.
“Yes, why do you think I am lying?” Ken asked, turning to face Miriam.
“You know a lot, I don’t believe you. You even know how to drive a car.” Miriam said looking into Ken’s eyes. Ken laughed.
“Does driving a car need special education? Not at all. As long as you can engage the gears, balance the wheel and just a few more other things and you are good to go.” Ken told Miriam with a soft-spoken voice as if trying to imitate how she talked.
