I woke up late the next morning. The sun was already high. I did not walk to the main road and catch a bus. All the buses go to Darpur early in the morning.

So I stayed at home on Wednesday. I was still very tired. I rested and talked to the villagers about the money order. I told them about the Identity Card and the photographer.

'You didn't give me a receipt,' I shouted. 'Give me my photographs or my money immediately.' And I hit the photographer hard with my stick. I am old, but I am still strong.

I shouted at her, 'I'm waiting here for him.'
查看中文翻译
'My three photographs for my Identity Card. I paid you two dollars for them on Tuesday. Give me my photographs immediately or my money.'

Lots of people ran out of their houses. I hit the photo-grapher again and two men held me. I could not get away from the two men.

'My receipt?' I asked.

After a long time the photographer came back. He looked tired and he smelt of beer.
查看中文翻译
'Yes. Where is your receipt?' the photographer asked.

The photographer looked at me and said, 'I don't know you, old man. What photographs are you talking about?'
查看中文翻译
The photographer fell on the ground. He shouted, 'Help! Help! This old man is killing me.' And I hit him hard again.
查看中文翻译
'Your photographs? Your money? What are you talking about?' the photographer said. 'Show me the paper. Show me the receipt for your money.'

At the police station, the policeman asked me, 'Did you hit that man three times?'

The photographer was very angry and I was very angry. Lots of people were shouting.

'Show me your Identity Card,' said the policeman.

Then a policeman came. The photographer shouted to the policeman, 'This old man hit me three times with his stick. He's a thief and a murderer. He wants my money.'
查看中文翻译
'Old man,' said the policeman. 'Go back to your village. Don't come here and fight. Keep out of Darpur.' And he pushed me into the street.
查看中文翻译
'Yes,' I said, 'he didn't give me my photographs.'
查看中文翻译
'I am Adam of Minta village,' I replied, 'and I haven't got an Identity Card.'
查看中文翻译
I went back to my village. I was tired and angry.
