I have a Hole… By Leading Tabloid
<SETTING: Office of the Head-boy. Enter teary-eyed girl>
Head-Boy: Eh! Spesh! What are you doing here? And what is that you are wearing?
Teary-Eyes: It’s the… it’s the…
Head-Boy: Is it the sack? How come? Who did this to you?
Teary-Eyes: That ka new prefect of yours is bisturbing me. Now all the other pupils are going to laugh at me that I am wearing the sack. (Wails. Tears fly like confetti)
Head-Boy: (Righteously outraged) What did she say you did?
Teary-Eyes: She said thatiee thatee, I was being doing bad manners and thatee, thatee I stole. Me! A whole me! A former Head girl!
Head-Boy: That what did you steal?
Teary-Eyes: I hear two billion. But I swear I didn’t steal it. That girl is just jealous of my romantic eyes. Just because she is a prefect now she wants to pose on me? Tshaaa! Tell her I went to Harvard. Tell her you are the only one who can make me wear a sack. Me how can you say I stolen? I have never stolen.
(Headboy makes non committal grunt. Reaches for a Haco ruler and starts rubbing them against his fore-arms)
Teary-Eyes: (Arms akimbo. A formidable sight)Anha! What are you going to do?
Head-Boy: (After a heavy pause) Thoz are yowaz.
(Starts humming. Runs out suddenly)
Teary-Eyes: (shocked) Kyoka this boy can be bold!

Teary-Eyes: Hi John.
MDA: (gruffly) Maria is looking for you; they want you in the staffroom. Where did you put the 2 billion?
Teary-Eyes: Naawe John! Of course I put it in my hole! Didn’t you know that I have a hole!
MDA: True. In fact I shall use my thing to get there.

GB: Eh Spesh! why are you wearing the sack! they caught you doing bad manners? Anyway, I have a nice piece of Mahogany I found in the playground. Those guys in the staffroom may say I stole it. Spesh, Can I keep my Mahogany in your hole?
Teary-Eyes: Err… Err… I don’t know if there is space.
GB: But I was near the kitchens and Kamulali said you have a mega hole. What are you keeping in there, a valley dam or something?
Teary-Eyes: (snorting) don’t tell me those things of valley dam. That’s old news by now.
