Mallam's Tea shop is a a story about a tea stall owner who suffers from dwarfism,and poor eyesight,and the ability to only speak a smattering of the local dialect in Zongo Street. These words show the liveliness or the feeling of happiness in the story:

He drew in a deep breath, and began to pray in his heart. He smiled and thanked Allahu-Raheemu, the Merciful One, for curing the streetfolk of the prejudice they had nursed against him for so long.
