THE CROSS AND THE WALKING STICK

ByMoyo Okediji

I was three years old. He just bought a bicycle and I asked him to give me a ride. It was already night.

He placed me on the top tube of his bicycle. Excited, I leaned forward and held the handles. He also held the handles with the left hand, and the saddle with the other, while walking and pushing the bicycle. I imagined that I was riding the bicycle. I looked up and saw the moon.
