The Chronicles IV
He had the habit of coming to the service late, every time. Now considering that we had two a day in the week and up to six on the weekend, that is a lot of times to be late. One of the pastors had had enough and chased him away. When the service was finished a stout cripple guy that had a room with his wife and kid across the way from my dorm came into the room, plus the never seen before house mother, I kid you not. Big performance. He, the cripple guy is some sort of head Pastor, he gave Tony the what for what and Tony swore at him as only a coloured from the Cape Flats could. He told Tony to pack his stuff he was out, only down side to that is I would have to do Tony’s duty that night and it was my day off.
It was one of those miserable windy rainy days I have come to hate here in the Cape. Then Theo got a job out of town for a few days. The church gets this work for inmates and they get a bit of money, but 30% has to be given back to The Ark. We pack some kit, divide our tobacco stash, Theo rolls the most professional looking home rolls I have ever seen. I suppose that 25 years in the Big House has something to do with that. With Theo gone I must roll my own smoke, what a bloody joke. It just falls to pieces. I make a deal with another ex-con, he rolls me smokes I give him tobacco. Why struggle?
