Before Palm Sunday- Nsukka


Hi,
Sorry I have not written in a while but we arrived in Nsukka where Jaja and I are going to stay for a little while.
The whole greeting was very strange and as Amaka turned to leave to change, I was left standing there until Aunty told me to go with Amaka. I dont know what to say to her or how to respond.
Yesterday Amaka introduced me to two of her friends from school. They where just like Amaka, and I watched them look in an American magazine, talk about a math teacher, and about a boy.
After a while one of the girls asked if it was all my hair, I wanted to tell them that it was my hair, but the words would not come out. I wanted to talk with them, laugh with them but I just couldn’t. Instead I started to cough and ran to the bathroom.
