I returned to Abuja, the capital of Nigeria, after graduation.I had been there before my mother became a minister.Two weeks later, I told my mother I was bored.She said, “Here’re the car keys.Go and buy some fruit.”   1   , I jumped into the car and speeded off.

Seeing me or rather my   2   , a boy sprang up,   3   to sell his bananas and peanuts.“Banana 300 naira.Peanut 200 naira! ” Looking at his black-striped bananas, I   4   to 200 total for the fruit and nuts.He   5   and I handed him a 300 naira note.He didn't have   6   , so I told him not to worry.He was   7   and smiled a row of perfect teeth.

When, two weeks later, I   8   this same boy, I was more aware of my position in Nigerian society.I should   9   this country as the son of a   10  .But it was hard to find pleasure in a place where it was so   11   to see a little boy who should have been in school selling fruit.

“What's up? ” I asked.He answered in   12   English, “I…I no get money to buy book.” I took out two 500 naira notes.He looked around   13   before sticking his hand into the car   14   the bills.One thousand naira means a lot to a family that   15   only 15, 000 each year.

The next morning, security officers told me, “In this place, when you give a little, people think you’re a fountain of opportunity.”   16   it's right, but this happens everywhere in the world.I wondered if my little friend had actually used the money for   17  .After six months’ work in northern Nigeria, I returned and saw him again standing on the road.“Are you in school now? ” He nodded.A silence fell as we looked at each other, and then I   18   what he wanted.I held out a 150 naira note.“Take this.” He shook his head fiercely and stepped back   19   hurt.“It's a gift.” I said.Shaking his head again, he handed me a basket of bananas and peanuts.“I’ve been waiting to   20   these to you.”
