"I have been waiting since" Fosa said under his breath as he snatched the Ghana must go bag off Kelvin's hands. He opened it up and he stole a glance. He sniffed and he smiled. "Let's go" He finally said.
Kelvin and Fosa both moved along the bushy path. Their goal was to avoid every one and get to the village park before anyone notice them.
"Hey, I have an idea." Kelvin said as they moved, his bag in his hands. Fosa dropped his own bag and he frowned.
"What!! We are late."
"I know" Kelvin replied with a wink. "I was thinking we should disguise."
Fosa gave him a distinct look and he smiled holding his head. He hit his head on kelvin's and he laughed. "You have sense bro. You have sense. Nice idea."
"I told you your foolishness will take you no where. But wait ooooo. We have been together for years, we went to high school together and still, you have refused to become wise." Kelvin poured out as he watched Fosa's angry face.
"What do you mean." Fosa asked. His voice had gone hard and he was ready to cry.
"What do you mean now." Fosa asked again as he watched Kelvin dig into his trouser. Kelvin withdrew a white handkerchief that had gone brown and sneezed into it and he handed it over to Fosa.
"Take, wipe your tears with this." Kelvin said and before he could draw in his next breath, Fosa's tightened fist was flying at his face.

Pa Zach stood behind an old bus. He struggled to break open a wall nut with his finger and at the same he was forcing close is truck's trunk. He was desperate to make it to town and return that same day, although he still had one seat empty.
"Is the car full." A voice hit him from behind. It sounded familiar. Pa Zach turned around, his old face conveyed a grin. But it all turned into a frown when he saw to ladies. He was totally convinced they were guys. They were in shirts, but they had boobs. That was confusing.
"Sir!!!" Kelvin reminded him they were still in front of him.
That voice again, he knew Kelvin's voice but the face he was seeing was painted. It must have consumed a full make up kit.
Pa Zach agreed they both board his bus to the city but he told them they both have to manage the single place then they agree to lap each
Fosa stood outside the bus, watching kelvin who was trying to break a piece of kola nut with a stone.
Kelvin eventually stood up. He handled over some of the kola nut to Fosa and they turned around to see if the bus was ready to go.
"Your advice worked goat. But this make up is heavy. It feels like I am carrying a full pale of paint on my face." "Shhhh" Kelvin sighed then he glowered.
