Chapter 16

" My name is Gyebi from Korle Gonno," he said and asked lovingly. " What's yours?"

" I'm Adukwei from Osu Klottey."

" Adukwei? That's a nice name. You live in a very crowded area, prone to infections. How did you come to settle here?"

" Our great grandfather was a chief. They were involved in the slave trade and married off some of the women to the whites who came over here and that is how we got our golden colour."

" I can see that," said Gyebi. "Once again, how may we help you?"

" You have helped us enough, Just bring us some more when this is finished. Please do not wait for too long."

" We'll do just that and more. Have some more supplies then. Wipe your tears and be happy."

" I will," she replied. "Nw that I know you care" Gyebi and Asabea walked back to their vehicle, followed by Obaa Yaa.

" There's another old woman over there," she said.

" Can you take us there?" asked Asabea.

" I thought that was not allowed."
