Mamadou- Hi Muhammad how you doing. How was school today?
Muhammad- I am fine Mamadou. What about you/
Mamadou- I am good. Did you go to class today?
Muhammad- Why you asking me if I went to class today?
Mamadou- because I care about you.
Muhammad- well stop asking me about my classes.
Mamadou-Muhammad! You must know we are not from here. We both came from West Africa. You are a Nigerian, and I am a Senegalese. Thank God we both are Muslims.
Muhammad- I know that Mamadou. So what you try to say again to me. Are you going to start your crazy prep talk again you learn from your father.
Mamadou- I think you should listen to what I am telling you before you say anything ok.
Muhammad- I am listening.
Mamadou-Muhammad I asking you about your if you went to class because I went to your class yesterday and one of class mates told me that you have not been in class for weeks. Why Muhammad?
Muhammad- I didn’t really didn’t class because the teacher can’t teach.
Mamadou- Muhammad please stops giving me all your scuses again. Students who don’t want to learn always say the teacher can’t teach. You see dr.PHP is the best teacher to have in UVI for com 119, com 120, and English 201she loves her stop. One thing I learn from her is that she give her students chances to catch up if they are failing. Dr.PHP doesn’t fail her students. Students fail them self.
Muhammad- of course Mamadou that’s what you could tell me, because you had her before.
Mamadou-that’s right because I want you to be like me. Remember we are representing Africa in UVI.
Muhammad- that’s true.
Mamadou- so are you planning to make a change in your life Muhammad. Are ready to be the best student in your class it is not too late. I am ready to help make. If you pass your class with an A+ I will buy you a ticket to Nigeria round trip.
Muhammad- Mamadou are you serious?
Mamadou- I am serious.
Muhammad- I am ready to make a change in my life. I am ready to be the president UVI.
Mamadou- That’s what I am talk about Muhammad. You are best friend I don’t like to here bad news about you, it makes me feel bad.
Muhammad- Mamadou you are true friend.
Mamadou- I am just doing my part as a friend. I almost forgot your father say to call him.
Muhammad- Why should I call him. He is not good father at all. He always beats my mom when he is drunk. I real don’t know what to do with to him those days I was so young. Whenever I came home I saw my mom crying. I don’t like to see my mom cry like that Mamadou.
Mamadou –uhhh! I understand Muhammad your case. Just call him
Muhammad- I will try.
Mamadou- you can change your father attitude.
Muhammad-but how?
Mamadou- bye telling him word of Allah (God) and tell him about Prophet Muhammad. Just pray for him so god can change his heart.
Muhammad- Thank you Mamadou for the prep talk. I am sleepy I want to go to sleep cause I have a big day tomorrow. I will call my father tomorrow after school. So good night.
Mamadou- good night.
