Chapter 2 - chapter 1

A few years ago after I came back from school I saw my papa on the porch sitting and drinking beer. Suddenly my papa called me and wants to talk. He told me that something happened earlier. I was intrigued! And I ask my papa what happened? Before that I blessed my papa it's a sign of respect it's part of our tradition where we grab their hand and put them on our forehead. And my papa told me that there was a big fight earlier at the public market. And I ask him who was it? And he told me. It was your uncle and our former worker. And I ask what happened next? And papa said. Your uncle almost died today. I was shocked and asked my dad where is he now? He told me he is at home. It was a big relief for me. And suddenly my papa said. I'm waiting for our former worker to come to our house and ask forgiveness but they did not show up. I was asking who started the fight? And my dad told me. My sis started telling me that they were putting their pork on her stand and she is telling them that don't put it there I still have some pork to sell and what is happening I can't sell it because your pork is there on my stand! She said. And she asks for help from my uncle to ask them that they should not put their pork on my aunt's stand. Suddenly our former worker shouted and said. I don't have room on my stand where should I put my pork on the floor? Angrily. And my uncle said to him shouting as well. It is not our fault that you no longer have space for your pork! This is not your stand! Suddenly they punch each other it was a big fight! And our former worker grabbed a knife but he failed to stab my uncle. My uncle also grabbed a knife to stab him but he ran away.

That's what my papa told me. And papa said what if I let them face each other and give them a gun one bullet each if who dies there will be no revenge. I told my papa that's wrong we should fix this I told papa do you want me to go there and ask them to come here so that we can fix this? My papa said no let them be.
