Fireworks Benny's old man said for you to use and enjoy but be careful. So Benny and his sister Naomi went down the concrete stairs of the flats and into the Square with the small box of fireworks. Benny lit them they and others nearby watched and were thrilled. After it was over the other kids clapped. Then Hem Lydia's brother threw a banger at Naomi she screamed and Benny chased Hem but Hem ran fast. He ran through the Square down the slope leading to Rockingham Street. Benny was on his tail filled with anger that Hem had thrown the firework at his sister. Hem panicked when he saw Benny was on his tail ran across the road without looking but nothing was coming. Benny ran after him cornered him against the wall of the big factory pinned him there punched him with fury. Hem pleaded just for a bit of fun but Benny whacked him until his anger had seeped. He walked away leaving the boy on the ground holding his stomach. The evening was creeping in the sky darkening. Benny walked back up the slope looking behind at the big moaning dope.
