Darling let’s go
“Shut up! I am busy,” barked his father.
So Simba wrote: “Shut up, I am busy” as his first sentence.
When he went to the shops he saw two men fighting. One of them was shouting: “I have been taking boxing lessons. I will crush you into pulp.” Simba wrote that as his second sentence.
As people started dispersing, after the fight, Simba heard a young man saying to his girlfriend: “Come on darling let’s go.” And he wrote that as his third sentence.
Next morning this is what transpired in class.
Teacher: “Simba, its your turn”
Simba: “Shut up, I am busy.”
Teacher: “You have been behaving strangely of late Simba. Why is this so?”
Simba: “I have been taking boxing lessons. I will crush you into pulp.”
Teacher: (on a more serious note) “Do you want me to take you to the headmaster?”
Simba: “Come on darling let’s go” -Joseph Magidi
