One night for Kano when everybody was asleep, Nepa brought the light and is normal, I quickly go my wardrobe comot clothes to iron. While I was doing that; I discovered movements in the house. On a more careful observation, a saw a white figure in the sitting room. A petty thief. From his reaction, I
could tell he was scared so I tried to help him leave the house by going into the bathroom hoping he would use the opportunity to sneak out. But thieves are always greedy and he didn't seize that opportunity, he instead wanted to steal my clothes. That was when I got angry and came out of the bathroom.
Scared again, he hid under the ironing table but me I'm a savage. Told him to come out and lie on the ironing table. He knew if he shouted he would have been lynched so he kept quiet and bore the pain as I laced the hot iron on his skin. I heard him groan in agony but I was merciless now.
My dad came out and asked if any thing was burning but I ushered him to bed.
The next day Nasir was hospitalized but he never told anyone how he had that back injury.
