MAY
Maryam, still on her school uniform, tugged on May's sweater as they passed a bookstore.
"What is it now?" May asked.
"Buy me that book." Maryam pointed at the yellow book sitting on the shelf just outside the bookstore.
"Why?" May queried.
"Isn't that Half of a Yellow Sun written by Chimamanda Adichie?" Iby asked.
"I want it," Maryam whined.
"Mtcheww. Leave me oh. I’m here to only buy oranges." May said, walking towards where the
oranges were sold.
Maryam began crying. Iby turned to her. "Are you seriously crying because you want your mom to buy you a book?"
