 This is a story of a young school boy who was my school mate in primary. The boy was always sent home for school fees each and every day pupils were being send home for fee.

  One day i took my time after the boy was sent home for school for now a period of two months. And what did i find at their home, the young boy was there helplessly taking care of his bed-riden grand mother who was at the moment and since child hood have been his only acting mother. after the death of his parents from the time he was a child.

 We talked with the boy  since i had called my father over and had  responded postively. We took the sick mother to the hospital and my father later pleaded with the school head teacher to let the boy learn and the teacher admitted.
