ANNETTE THE GHANAIAN BANKWOMAN AND SECURITY GUARD
by Hamlet
ANNETTE RECALLS HER CHILDHOOD AS THE SCHOOL BULLY BEATING UP A PUPIL AND HIS FATHER

The taxi driver whose name Annette found out to be Frank from his picture that
was in front of Her ,went roaring down Marylebone Rd exceeding the speed
limit. Yet he did not care at all. He had to reach Her home in Wanstead the
other side of London in half an hour or else She would not pay him anything at
all .In fact if he was late he would have to pay Her!

Who knows what this crazy Black Woman was prepared to do to him? She might
take all his money and his cab too and leave him on the streets. She had
already dented his car with Her razor sharp boot toes and had threatened to
slash his tires with Her razor. He did not realise how strong She was towering
over him ready to rip his prick off with Her razor blade.She had threatened to
rip his back seat if he said one more word to Her. She was now in the back
seat looking so imperious and strong .She was a big security guard and bouncer
while he was a mere taxi driver!

As the car turned up Hampstead Road with Frank ignoring all traffic lights and
speed limits hoping that the police would not catch him and he would lose his
licence. Still it was 3.30 AM and he could not see any police around. Anyway
being arrested by the police was better than getting the wrong side of this
crazy Woman!

Soon he was speeding down Camden High St turning into Camden Road in the
direction of North West London. As She sat in the back of the taxi looking at
the night sky and the stars overhead She began to think of Her life and Her
childhood in Ghana a country She missed so badly especially as She had not
been back home for over a year. 

She was born in rough neighborhood called Akibasi in Accra where She had
learnt to be a tough street fighter and to protect Herself and Her younger
brother and two younger sisters against the thugs who roamed the area.

She went to a Catholic secondary school called St. Malamba Secondary run party
by nuns. She had a reputation as the School Bully and had the nickname
'Bitchy Boateng' after Her surname.

She would force all the other children to pay Her in sweets and money as
protection money demanding an average of £2 (6 cedi) a week from each
pupil. At the same time provided the pupils paid Her every week and did as
they were told She could be very kind and helpful. Also being extremely
intelligent She would always help other pupils with their homework. She would
also help any other pupil who wanted help or was upset. She would never
tolerate pupils being bullied or abused by their fathers and on one occasion
had actually given the father of a pupil a good kicking in their own homes!

There was as particular boy She could not stand called Johnny Owu who thought
he was so tough and wanted to rival Her as the school bully. The other pupils
hated him as he would love hitting them just for the fun of it.She was furious
that any pupil could possibly believe they could stand up to Her.Also many
pupils had complained to Her about his behavior.

She had challenged him to a fight right in the middle of the school playground
when she was just 16 and he was older than Her. She was dressed in Her
familiar outfit that made Her look so tough of a tight black leather jerkin,
leather hot pants and calf length boots that exposed Her lovely lissome and
muscular body.

He stood no chance whatsoever against Her .She kicked him in the stomach and
in the face as he fell on the ground screaming in agony. She then kicked him
all over the ground as if he was a football as his screams could be heard all
over the school. She had then dragged him by the neck to the toilets and
thrown him down the toilet bowl with his legs sticking up and then pulled the
flush almost drowning him.

As a result of this She had been seen by the school Principal Sister Maria
Adjei.She remembered the conversation quiet distinctly. It was quiet clear
that Sister Maria really admired Annette as Annette excelled in all sports
winning almost every match for the school. She was very good at all subjects
especially science .She was ready to help any teacher who had trouble in
keeping discipline in the class and was quite ready both walk into any
classroom and beat any trouble maker to a pulp. Sister Maria really wanted
Annette to be the Head Prefect as quickly as possible.

As Annette sat in the taxi She remembered the conversation distinctly.

She had stood outside the Principal's study feeling so pleased with Herself
that She did not have to wear the school uniform like the other pupils. In
fact come to think of it She didn't have to do anything She did not want to do
as the teachers and nuns wren so afraid of Her.

Sister Maria opened the door.

'Oh so good to see you as usual Annette darling!'

She summoned Her into Her study and asked Her to sit down.

'Annette sweetheart .I just wanted to tell you that I'm afraid one of the
parents Mr. Owu is coming up to the school to complain. I know there was a
fight in the playground and You beat his soon up.Well his son is now in
hospital and he might not recover for days .He is even blacker and blue all
over!'

'Well Sister Adjei I couldn't care less. That boy was a nuisance and a pest to
the other children and he got what he deserved! Let him stay in hospital .In
fact if he gets out too soon I might go round to his home and beat him up
again!'

'Now Annette darling you mustn't be so rough! You will get me and the whole
school in trouble if more parents complain!'

'I couldn't give a toss They should control their children and if they don't I
will beat their children up and the parents too!'

Sister Maria knew that Annette's intelligent and she just could not argue with
Her.

Just then the phone rang It was Sister Annette's secretary

'It's Mr. Owu he wants to see you now.'

'All right show him in.'

She turned to Annette.

'Annette darling You'd better leave now' I will speak to Mr. Owu and say You
will apologise'

'I certainly am not going to apologise! In fact I'm going to tell him leave
now I will give him a kicking too!'

'Please Annette don't make it hard on me'

'I'm staying right here and I'm not going anywhere. I'm going to deal with
that Mr. Owu!'

Just then there was a knock on the door it was Mr. Owu. He was a big fat man
who had an aggressive manner just like his son.

Sister Maria went up to greet him.

'I'm so sorry what happened to your son. Annette here will apologise you won't
You sweetheart Annette?'

Annette furious and strode forwards. She was as tall as Mr. Owu and knew She
could deal with him easily.

'Look here you arsehole you'd better leave now or you're getting a beating
from Me just like the one I gave your son!'

'Look here you little tramp don't speak to me like that!' he shouted back .

'My poor son Johnny is in hospital. He can't walk and he might have to have an
emergency operation because of you!'

'Good let him rot in hospital He got what he deserved! Now get out or you'll
feel the end of My boot too!'She shouted back.

He had never been spoken to like this before by a 16 year old girl who was
younger than his daughter!

'Don't you dare speak to me like that!' he bellowed beside himself with rage.

'Perhaps you'd like to go into the corridor with Me!'

'Annette where are You going?'shouted Sister Maria almost in tears.

'Don't worry I'll deal with him just keep out of this Sister Adjei!'

She was soon in the corridor outside with Owu.

'Now Owu are you going back home or do you want trouble?'

'You can't threaten me you little whore' ! he shouted back.

'I'm giving you 10 seconds to leave or you face a kicking!'

He hesitated not knowing what to do. Unfortunately he hesitated too long .With
one move She swung round and brought the heel of Her boot into his stomach. He
let our a piercing scream of pain.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!

He fell down on the ground holding his violated stomach. With another swipe
move her boot heel went driving again into has stomach

OWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!'he roared in abject agony.

'I'm going to carry on kicking you until, you agree to go home!' She said with
Her boot heel in his neck.

He did not know what to say as he was doubled up in agony.

He looked up in horror as he could see Her lethal boot coming towards his
stomach once more.

'NO MORRREEE!!!' He yelled.

Annette had humiliated Her opponent once more and stood over him in triumph.

She bent down and held him by his neck in Her leather gloved hand.

'Look here Owu don't give Me any more trouble or I'll give you a dammed good
beating in your home right in front of your wife and children! No one messes
with Me and gets way it! They don't call Me Bitchy Boateng for nothing!

'Just watch your back because if I see you in the town I may give you yet
another beating and you will join your son at Karikari Brobbey Hospital where
they have enough patients in casualty !What's more You will address Me as Miss
Boateng is that quite clear?'

He hesitated but could see Her boot toe aiming for his testicles.

He yelled out at the top of his voice

'YES MISS BOATENG!!!'
