It was on the 22nd of October in the year 1994 when the bouncing baby boy was born.Of course that means he was born a Libra..heheheee
The dad,Geo,was a well known gangsta and he had dropped out of highschool,began his hustle and later found himself amongst gangsters and hood goons.The boy's mom had also dropped out of highschool not to mention how bright she was in school.
she was a top student in her class but due to financial constrains,she never made it through.
*****
The name of the boy??? Jackson Gatu,yeah!!! right!!! that was his birthname.
He was born in the ghetto,KAYOLE,to be specific.
When he was about one year old,his family relocated to the slums,Mukuru Kwa Njenga.
Trust me,this hood has houses made of iron sheets,the houses r small...9×9...then the sewerage passes near doors and its not even covered.Water pipes pass in those sewerages too...by now I know u can imagine the foul smell that comes from those sewerages too into the house...uuuffff!!!!!

Anyway life had to go on,life is one big road and it leads to unknown destinations.

Jack(Jackson) slowly grew up slowly in the shanties like any other normal kid.

Then one day,he saw something that will never be erased from his mind..ever.
His dad came that day home,drunk,he started quarelling with his mom,he just stood in the corner.
The next thing he saw was his mom being beaten up.Can you just Imagine the pain he felt watching his mom being assaulted by his dad? if you have been there I geus you do.There was a small amount of blood on his momma's face.He felt as if he was being torn apart and to make it worse,he couldn't help.
He never hated his dad though,he still loved and respected his dad regardless.
Deep down inside,he swore to himself that he will never assault a woman in his life.

****
The beating never stopped anyway,so gues what?!! His mom had to leave,with Jack on his back.
FOR GOOD.
