mengi ya kila siku. Ingawa Kobe alikuwa mzito na mwepesi wa kufanya mambo, Kinyonga hakuwahi
kumdhihaki rafiki yake. Alimheshimu na kumsaidia kila alipopata nafasi.

Siku moja, mfalme wa wanyama, Simba, alitangaza shindano la kukimbia. Mnyama yeyote aliyeshinda
angepewa heshima ya kuwa mshauri wa mfalme. Kobe, licha ya kuwa na mwili mzito, aliamua
kushiriki. Wanyama wengine walimcheka, lakini Kinyonga alimhimiza na kumtia moyo.

Katika siku ya mashindano, Kobe alianza kwa mwendo wa polepole huku wanyama wengine
wakimpuuza. Kinyonga, kwa busara yake, alijificha mgongoni mwa Kobe. Wakati wa kufika ukingoni
mwa shindano, Kinyonga aliruka mbele na kuonekana kuwa amefika kwanza. Wanyama walishangaa
jinsi Kobe alivyoshinda.

(Ni nyumbani kwa Bi. Mumbi. Mwanaye, Amani, amerejea kutoka shuleni baada ya
likizo fupi. Anaonekana kuwa mwenye mawazo mengi. Mama yake anamuangalia
kwa makini kabla ya kuanza mazungumzo.)

Bi. Mumbi: Mwanangu, naona huna furaha leo. Kuna tatizo lolote shuleni?

Amani: (Akiinamisha kichwa.) Mama, mambo si mazuri. Mwalimu alitusisitizia

umuhimu wa nidhamu na kazi kwa bidii. Lakini rafiki zangu wengi hawatilii maanani
masomo.

Bi. Mumbi: Mwanangu, unajua umuhimu wa elimu. Usikubali kushawishiwa na

marafiki wabaya.

Amani: (Akikuna kichwa.) Ndio Mama. Pia, mwalimu alitugawia kazi za ziada, lakini
sina hakika nitazimaliza kwa wakati.

Bi. Mumbi: Usijali, utazifanya hatua kwa hatua. Nitakusaidia ikiwa utahitaji msaada.

Amani: Asante Mama. Wewe ni msaada mkubwa kwangu.

(Mama na mwanawe wanaendelea kuzungumza huku taa zikififia taratibu.)
