ALWAYS DEMBA

I’m all alone
If you are a boy who is friendly, do you have a friend you can send me? I’m all alone you see . Do you have a friend you can lend me ?

                               Always Demba
There was Demba. He was always there. Every day when Lamine came home from school, Demba was there. Waiting for him. Demba was only fifteen years. He lived in the apartement next to Lamine . he waited for Lamine every day . Some days he waited on the steps of the house . some days he would come to the door of Lamine ‘s apartement . But every day he was there, waiting for Lamine. Demba always said , hi lamine . will you play white me ? But lamine always said , No Demba you are to small. He couldn’t play ball . He couldn’t skate. He didn’t even go to school . And lamine had many big friends. He didn’t want to play with Demba . 


One day something happened at school . Lamine come to the end of his reading book . And the teacher let him take it home ! Lamine ran home whit his book. When he got home, there was Demba on the steps. Hi, lamine, said Demba . will you play whit me ? For once Lamine was glad to see Demba . He wanted to show someone his book . Hey , Demba, you know what ? lamine said . I can read this book ! it’s called  a story for evry day . look ! Demba looked  at the book ! could you read some of it to me ? he asked . Sure, Lamine said . he sat down on the steps whit Demba. 


He read the first story in the book .that was good. Demba said. Read me another . Lamine read another story to Demba , and then another . he read to Demba  until they come to the end of the book . After that day, Lamine was happy to see Demba on the steps . and Demba liked to hear them . Lamine still played whit his big friends. But now he had a small friend, too. Someone he could always read to. 


His little friend Demba
