He name was Marcus, can't remember his surname we were in grade 2 around 1985 thereabouts. I can't picture his face though.
He stayed in Magwegwe North, and everyday he passed by our house and we took off to school together.

When he passed by at about 6:45 I was still bathing, and he couldn't wait. I remember my mom chiding me on waking up late. She was on a " mtshiye mntanami uthanda ukulaala lo".
Thus Marcus left.

Knock off time, went home. At about 3 his mother came knocking on our door asking if we had seen Marcus.
Then she and mom left to look for him. Later on we learnt that Marcus was run over by a car on the way to school. Am not sure which route he used to school 3/

I guess he used another route. Thus how Marcus who was a friend lost his life. 7 year old me couldn't understand, why a life so young could just be snatched like that. Never got a chance to grieve for him.
Today just woke up thinking of him.
Rest in peace Marcus
