A 5minutes Freewrite: The Reject (chapter 3): NEVER PULL THE LION'S TAIL
It is another freewrite time and you can join the challenge through this link.
This is the third of my series THE REJECT
NEVER PULL THE LION'S TAIL.
Amanze could not sleep all night, he was thinking of how best to tame his son Ikemba, the boy was turning into a rascal and he is getting worse by the day.
Late into the night he heard some noise in his compound and that triggered his curiosity, everyone in umunze knows he is not just the greatest farmer in the land but the bravest and most ruthless warrior as well, no one dares trespass his property.
He got up picked up his dane gun and quietly opened the door of his hut to investigate what the noise was about.
As he came out he saw a figure moving leaving his compound; he could tell that whoever it was was carrying something on his shoulder and goat pen under the cover of darkness and he sprinted noiselessly taking a back route which he knew would intercept whoever it was that was leaving his compound.
Soon he was a few feet behind the intruder, aimed his gun at his head as he barked out in a loud voice: "who goes there, who dares to pull the lion's tail? Turn around before I send you to meet your ancestors.
And slowly the man turned to face him.
And this is where we draw the curtain today remeber this is a series of short stories that I am writing using the provided Prompts.
