Its a great story; it caught my attention 4rm d 1st post and that's huge. Lol Some mix up with present tense and past tense but you kept me spell bound. Your language is colourful and catchy too. Nevertheless @ some point I was confused. Is the grandfather mentally unstable or diabolical? Cos dude thanked him in the hospital but hit him @ home in a fit of rage! It was like he changed the second they got home. And why would the young man entertain thoughts of killing his father - why not the grand dad? At least they are the ones responsible for his father's misfortune. Oh well good luck with your exam 1 Like 1 Share |

touchmeder: Thanks much bro. The issue of mix-up between past and present tense, don't mind me bro, sometimes I'm always afraid to use past tense in places that requires cause I often see the meaning reading through it as nonsense but I've modified it as you've said. While in some places I didn't modified like the "mother 'sells' moi-moi"(present continuous) was intentional because the stuff is still in process. And other places I didn't modified, too. Yap, you should be in a better position to classify the 'grandpa's reaction cause me self no know o, it happens often like that, though he is not mentally 'unstable'(as in true life). About the dudes' thought on killing his father, you would figure his lamentation when you read the point he said ' he wasn't weeping for his(fathers') encounter but he can't just stop making mistakes,' again. You should also reason with the dude that, if his father hadn't made those mistakes, the grand-p wouldn't have had chance of frustrating the boy because he wouldn't at the first instance, be living with his grand-p. Thanks so much for your correction bro, it would I think, release me from the shell of fear so I can boldly use past tense. And for your view/s and thought/s, I'm happy you tried to picture my characters and I await your reply if you think otherwise about the dude's thought or my elaboration/s^above. |
