Jona has read a lot of books authored by black writers. Each time he visits the library to lend a book is always gets attracted by the title of those books written by black writers. As a black boy in a class filled with learners from all over the continents of the world, he wanted to find out more about his heritage.

Some of his new friends are very nice but some of the boys sought any opportunity to bully him. This act was unknown to the teachers.
One evening, while the boys were done with the practice of the cricket game, one of the huge boys in his class accosted him, threatening to beat him pulp if he ever turns up for the par to be of the game. Other accomplices of the bully stayed close and moved on when he had done threatening Jona.
On the day of the next practice, Jona was nowhere around the cricket pitch. He created that the boys could gang up against him. He would rather spend more time at the library reading up novels written by black writers.
He had read up all text in the library that it became boring to go there again.
Two days before the cricket game with Beverly High was to be played, Jona wrote a letter to the sports director who had neem heels over his absence from the team that he would love to withdraw for sake of his hurting knees. His excuse seemed tenable, hence Fabian obliged him.

After the match, Jona came down a showed his support for the team despite being bullied out.

Since the war broke out, his autistic brother, Jordan had been abandoned. Who knows whether he survived unrest in southern Sudan.
Fabian wanted him to stay back and continue his research into more games but all that mattered to Jona were to find his brother.
One of the features in his last game was that the bullies played a pivotal role in bringing out the best in him.
Fabian accompanied Jona back to Sudan to locate his autistic brother. When they arrived in Sudan and reached Jona's hometown, they got a baffling report that Zullum, Jona's autistic brother had been returned to the colony of lepers.
They made all efforts to find Cullum. It took them three weeks to find him far in the eastern part of the province.
The whole nation is devastated sake of the destruction that came as a result of war.
