Desmond ' s point of view......
Right now am in her car.
I told her that I must pick my little siblings from school but she instead that she picks them up .
I told her that she won't be able to tell if they're the ones or not . She may end up bringing some one's children
Then she laughed
I didn't actually say it , I wrote it on paper.
My mum used to tell me that everyone on this earth is just like her. No one is good.
She also told me that ;
Some people will pretend to be good to you but at the end they will show their true self (wickedness ).
So I think this girl is just like that.
Am sacred of how she may treat me later.
" We are here " she announces
I got down from the car and she also got down.
I can't wait to see my little siblings
We walk to Dennis school first .
When we reached the gate , Dennis runs to me , to give me a hug.
“ Desmond , I missed you .” He shouts
I kissed his head and started the sign language;
I missed you too. How was school ?
He responds using sign language ;
Terrible . I wasn't served lunch today.
" What ?? Why? " I say using sign language.
" They said until I pay my school fees . They won't give me lunch " He informs me using sign language.
" But good news . I didn't go hungry because of the Emergency snacks you bought for I and Regina ” he tells me using sign language
" The watermelon juice was so delicious . The cookies and the meat pies were yummy. " he tells me using sign language
" Am glad you loved it .” I said using sign language
But I wasn't happy about what he told me. So until his school fees is paid , he won't be served lunch. What do I do ?
How am I going to pay his school fees this time ?
" Desmond , who is she ?”
He questions me when he noticed Christiana ' s presence
" Is she your friend ?. Desmond you have a friend now. ” Dennis says as he jumped.
That's his way of showing excitement.
Before I could tell him anything . Christiana starts talking ;
Yeah am his friend. My name is Christiana Johns . What's your name little guy ?
She questions Dennis with a smile. She likes smiling a lot just like Regina.
" Am Dennis , am not proud of my surname so I rather not say it . ”
" Ok-kay! Can we be buddies ? ” Christiana questions him
"No . You will take my brother's position . He is my buddy . He is my only buddy . ”
"Oops. I don't want to take his position. ” She jokingly says
" Maybe you can be my second buddy .” He suggests
" Sure! ” Christiana replies
" Let's go to Regina ' s school ” Dennis yells
" Regina?? ” Christiana questions
