Magnificent story, Hive account@churchboy. I appreciate your ability to take advantage of stories from everyday life and recreate them literally. The crossroads (although there are three) at which Bambam is cornered is terrible: the aunt's ingratitude and betrayal, tumultuous "justice" (the masses are irrational. we must distrust them!), and the abuse and coercion of the street underworld. Finally, Bambam, although a victim of misunderstanding and adversity, redeems himself with his forgiveness and tears. You solve the story very well in narrative terms with the use of flashback and the structure interspersed with digressions. Thank you for your story, and also Hive account@adsactly for offering it to us.
