Chapter 3
Knowing that her husband and HOD were friends, Ummi was no longer angry nor embarrassed about the office incident.
Omar then asked for the story of the “quiet neighbour” and Ummi started.
A couple had been childless for long and decided to visit a native doctor after which they had a boy child.
He was named Talle because his mother died shortly after his birth and was called “the quiet one” because he spoke less.
Talle worked as a Local Government driver but after losing his both parents, he suddenly started to spend a lot more money than he used to, which called for so much suspicion that Hakimi, the District Head, had to question him about his sudden source of wealth.
But while they spoke, the police barged in asking for Talle who accompanied Zaki to kidnap a boy for ransom.
Talle, the quiet one, was then taken by the police and never again seen in Lafayette community.
Ummi rounded up Talle’s story by advising her children, especially Omar, not to trust anyone.
