Growing up pains

Character : nine year old boy in a primary school

Benny : I am no longer afraid during recess or after school. It is ok when the teachers are in the classroom. I always worry because auntie is never at the school gate when the bell rings for dismissal. She says it is safer to come when there is less traffic.

I told the big boy, “My daddy has talked to the head mistress about it. I will not give you any more money. This money is for me to eat during recess. I will not lie for you any more.” ( p.s. the daddy did no such thing )

The year five student was scared. He hasn’t approached me for a few days already. My daddy was wrong to leave me alone in the school. :(
