Hurriedly she cut the meat into five equal portions by putting it in the pot to boil then
she left to fetch the firewood to hasten the cooking. My brother and I were playing outside
the house when we heard mother laughing with a neighbor, incidentally, this distracted
her from the boiling pot and she took time to catch up with the village gossip. where she
charted a way with a friend, in a neighbor, Ibrahim came by to collect some hot calls of
fire. You see those days; fire was stored in fagots not in matches as is the case today...by
not wanting to be disturbed in our game, we told Ibrahim to get the tire from kitchen
himself therefore mother appeared from behind the house carryıng a bunch of wood. she..
then proceeded to prepare the rice that would with go the meat. When. it was time to
serve the meal she placed the five tin plates on a mat on a floor. before dished out the
meat But wool!! One piece was missing! She looked straight into our eyes, certain that
none of us would stand her gaze if we had been guilty. Confusion set in where was the
piece of meat. realizıng that we were as baffled as she was demanded to know whether we
had seen anyone enter the kitchen in her absence. It was then that we remembered that
Ibrahim, our neighbor had entered to get some hit coals. Without any further ado, mother
sprang up she walked briskly to our neighbor‟s compound. she got there just in time just
setting the sense for supper a shocked at the sudden intrusion; Ibrahim knew that his luck
has run out. without mincing her words mother demanded the piece of meat from Ibrahim.
Contrary to our expectations she actually came with the piece of meat cursing Ibrahim of
his gluttonous nature. It was then that we discovered what Ibrahim had done his mission
was to get the hot coals he found that the aroma from the boiling pot was tantalizing. Then
he decided to lift the lid awee bit if only to see what was cooking. He realized he couldn‟t
replace the lid without sampling our what was cooking in the pot then he bling his hand
into the boiling pot and got hold of a huge piece of meat. He quickly shoved it in his coat
pocket; he also picked a few faggots and walked out of the kitchen as if nothing has
happened. We were too buzzy playing to notice his stooping gait as he hurried to his
compound lastly mother settled down and dished the food we ate in silence. For us, it was
a discovery of other side of our mother.
