Mira In The Present Tense (2013) - Plot & Excerpts

At break, Jidé comes over to sit next to me on the wall. I feel stupidly proud to be so close to him, as if he’s some kind of badge of honor.
    “Where’s Ben?” I ask.
    “Not here. No Millie?”
    I shake my head.
    “You’d better not sit here,” I warn him, pointing to Bo and Demi who are nodding in our direction.
    “Why not?”
    “They’ll probably have a go at both of us now,” I say, trying hard not to look in their direction.
    “Let them!” Jidé flashes his film-star smile at them. “How’s your nana?” he asks me.
    “Dying.”
    He just nods and we sit there in a silence stuffed full of things we would like to say to each other.
    “I didn’t know about your parents, about what happened in Rwanda,” I finally pluck up the courage to say.
