“My name is Bahati. I didn’t know my age. I live with my aunt, even, she didn’t know how old I am. I was just using my time on the road play and to beg. Sometimes I could get money or food from passing people and bring it to my aunt. There is a lot of violence in street. Big boys bit the small and take away everything. Now I am safe at school, I learned to write my name. I like my classmates. We are good friends. My aunt is proud of me.”
