Her sister Teshi came running.“Kande, Kande! I heard the women talking.  \nThey said Mama has a secret! What can it be?”“I think I know, little sister,” said Kande.“Let’s go talk to Mama and find out. I’ll race you!”  \nKande and Teshi arrived home laughing and out of breath. Their sisters Falala and Iniko and their brother Jumoke came to see what the excitement was about. Mama hushed them.‘Be quiet and let your papa sleep,” she said as she herded  \nthem away. Teshi asked,“Mama, do you have a secret?”  \nMama put her hand on her middle and said,“Our family is growing bigger.”  \nFour-year-old Iniko said,“I’m going inside to tell Papa!” Mama picked her up before she could get to the door.“He already knows, little one. Let him rest,” Mama said.  \nIniko frowned. She loved to climb on Papa, but lately she had hardly been allowed to go near him. For a long time he had been lying down, never working. He had gotten thin and was very weak. He had a bad cough. The whole family worried about him.  \nOne day Kande was at the market. She was telling her friends that her mother was having a baby. A boy walked by and jeered,“That baby is going to have AIDS just like your father!”Kande did not know what he meant.“Surely Papa doesn’t have AIDS”, she thought,“or does he?”“Don’t listen to that boy!”her friends said.  \nLater that night Kande asked her mother,“Does Papa have AIDS? I’m old enough to know.” Kande’s mother looked away. Kande could see that she was crying. She answered,“Yes he does. I am sorry that you heard it from somebody else first.”  \nWhat will we do if Papa dies?” Kande asked.“How will we get food and money in order to live?”“God will help us,” Mama said. They cried together for a while.","cbCailE3ButscTKQ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailE3ButscTKQ","pdf",3840375,46,"English","en",105,"# Chapter 1\n## Mama’s Secrets","[{\"question\":\"What secret does Mama share with the children in Chapter 1?\",\"answer\":\"Mama tells them that their family is growing bigger, explaining the new baby news after the children hear women talking.\"},{\"question\":\"How does Kande learn that her father has AIDS?\",\"answer\":\"Kande first hears a cruel rumor at the market, then asks her mother that night and receives confirmation that her father has AIDS.\"},{\"question\":\"What does Mama say will help the family if Papa dies?\",\"answer\":\"Mama tells Kande that God will help them and encourages her to hope and cope despite the family’s fear and worry.\"}]",1784290846,71,{"code":4,"msg":29,"data":30},"ok",{"site_id":23,"language":22,"slug":31,"title":13,"keywords":32,"description":14,"schema_data":33,"social_meta":85,"head_meta":87,"extra_data":89,"updated_unix":26},"kandes-story-how-a-community-can-love-and-care-for-people-affected-by-aids","",{"@graph":34,"@context":84},[35,52,67],{"@type":36,"itemListElement":37},"BreadcrumbList",[38,42,46,49],{"item":39,"name":40,"@type":41,"position":11},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":43,"name":44,"@type":41,"position":45},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":47,"name":12,"@type":41,"position":48},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/story-novel/",3,{"item":50,"name":13,"@type":41,"position":51},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/kandes-story-how-a-community-can-love-and-care-for-people-affected-by-aids/90133/",4,{"url":50,"name":13,"@type":53,"author":54,"headline":13,"publisher":56,"fileFormat":59,"inLanguage":22,"description":14,"dateModified":60,"datePublished":61,"encodingFormat":59,"isAccessibleForFree":62,"interactionStatistic":63},"DigitalDocument",{"name":9,"@type":55},"Person",{"url":39,"name":57,"@type":58},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-07-25","2026-07-17",true,{"@type":64,"interactionType":65,"userInteractionCount":11},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":66},"ViewAction",{"@type":68,"mainEntity":69},"FAQPage",[70,76,80],{"name":71,"@type":72,"acceptedAnswer":73},"What secret does Mama share with the children in Chapter 1?","Question",{"text":74,"@type":75},"Mama tells them that their family is growing bigger, explaining the new baby news after the children hear women talking.","Answer",{"name":77,"@type":72,"acceptedAnswer":78},"How does Kande learn that her father has AIDS?",{"text":79,"@type":75},"Kande first hears a cruel rumor at the market, then asks her mother that night and receives confirmation that her father has AIDS.",{"name":81,"@type":72,"acceptedAnswer":82},"What does Mama say will help the family if Papa dies?",{"text":83,"@type":75},"Mama tells Kande that God will help them and encourages her to hope and cope despite the family’s fear and worry.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":50,"og:type":86,"og:title":13,"og:site_name":57,"og:description":14},"article",{"robots":88,"canonical":50},"index,follow",{"doc_id":7,"site_id":23},{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":91},[92,95,99,103,108,113,118,123,128,131,135],{"id":11,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":12,"show_sort_weight":93,"slug":94},90,"story-novel",{"id":45,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":96,"show_sort_weight":97,"slug":98},"Literature",80,"literature",{"id":51,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":100,"show_sort_weight":101,"slug":102},"Exam",70,"exam",{"id":104,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":105,"show_sort_weight":106,"slug":107},5,"Comic",60,"comic",{"id":109,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":110,"show_sort_weight":111,"slug":112},6,"Technology",50,"technology",{"id":114,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":115,"show_sort_weight":116,"slug":117},7,"Healthcare",40,"healthcare",{"id":119,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":120,"show_sort_weight":121,"slug":122},8,"Research & Report",30,"research-report",{"id":124,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":125,"show_sort_weight":126,"slug":127},9,"Religion & Spirituality",20,"religion-spirituality",{"id":126,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":129,"show_sort_weight":126,"slug":130},"World Cup","world-cup",{"id":132,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":133,"show_sort_weight":132,"slug":134},10,"Lifestyle","lifestyle",{"id":136,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":137,"show_sort_weight":104,"slug":138},19,"General","general"]
