He lived mostly in extreme poverty. Simply eating was an issue, most of the days. He belonged to the low caste of the society, and had some friends among the servants, beggars and workers. People saw Mongo as cultivated, eager to read and learn when possible, and mastering writing, which he did for friends. He was force of nature, and people saw in their body and beauty the incarnation of a god. In the life, he was able to take a few important life-changing decisions.
Mongo, 53 years old, builder, became the new leader of the family.
At the age of 64, Mongo spent time and money for the people that needed help. The same day, Mongo protected someone that was chased by authorities. A few weeks later, Mongo fell in love with Dayo, a stunning woman, 28 years old, a porter. Both married and lived together from now on.
A little while after, Dayo got pregnant, and gave birth to a very small girl named Akinyi.
