Episode 2

Jimmy didnt drop out nursery school….. (he went on to accomplish many academic goals he had set for himself – His Grand Ma cant believe it mpaka wa leo!).

But he sure was miserable!

This kid was among the smallest boys in his class. And as if that wasn’t enough he had a girlish (sweet) babyface. In other words, he was a sitting stuffed duck, juicy and roasty, for bullies.

One such bully was always on his case but one day he got what he deserved.

Jimmy had a temper which was so so bad that it made him cry – it was the only thing he could do – CRY! Whenever he was crossed he would seethe with anger and tears will just start flowing!

One day, however, the bully started his usual ‘uchokozi’! But boy did he choose the wrong day! Jimmy had a new razor blade and as soon as the first tear hit the floor, something inside snapped and he went Jackie chan on the bullies legs with the razor! The wails from the other boy attracted the teacher who unglued Jimmy from the bullies legs. The cuts were not deep but they bled (and were sure painful) as hell.

From that day, Jimmy found himself a weapon (which he always displayed for everyone to see) and acquired himself a  new nickname – Jimmy wembe!

It wasn’t to be his last fight……

To be continued!
