one fine day in 1990

I was sitting on the steps of our house in Mutungo next to my cousin Martin. He was washing his clothes in a basin and I was just sitting there watching him. I was about seven then so this was just about all there was to do on a hot morning.
Then I noticed that every few minutes, he would freeze and begin to stare into the distance. I was thinking 'what's going on?' but when it kept on for much longer, I finally asked him what he was doing. It was one of the strangest things I had ever seen as a child.
He smiled for quite a while at my naivety before saying something that caught me off guard.
He said "Im just thinking"
It was my first epiphany.
