    A large group gathered in the waiting area of the hospital where Yinka’s body had been taken. Ray was allowed behind the scenes where he attempted to get rid of all the blood that covered him. Here he also tried to explain to the doctors and the police officers what had happened but he was so distressed that he was unable to concentrate his mind to give any useful replies. A police interview with the band was

    was that the insurance company were going to pay him a substantial amount. All the boys were still receiving threats on their phones and they continued getting negative media attention, but they kept working. The beats for the new album were soon done and awaiting lyrics and they had begun to practise for their live tour.

    The band went back to the studio and Marga Man went back to begin restocking his shop and filling in his insurance claim forms. A couple of weeks later Marga Man received good news and bad news.

    They sat in a circle in a private room. Sam initiated the proceedings.

    ‘When I heard that there was going to be an opportunity to get you all here this morning, I thought it would be a great idea. I was going to have a meeting with the boys anyway before we write our report for the school, but I think with all that is happening now we should also think a little about the bigger picture. So if it’s OK with you, I’d like to just talk about the progress so far and then I think it would be great if we could just talk about the band. Is that OK?’

    Everyone nodded yes, so Sam continued.

    ‘Well as far as we’re concerned, here at Positivity you have been a great success. I know the music thing has been good, but even the work that you’ve been doing in the classroom has been good.

It goes without saying that the report that we will be giving to the school on the three of you will be very positive; full of positivity, you could say. So congratulations.’

    Ray smiled. ‘Just wanna say I’m glad we didn’t stick with Mr David Oak of The Strolling Rollers fame. Bunny has the touch, you know what I’m saying?’

    ‘I know what you’re saying,’ smiled Sam, lowering her head, and moving swiftly on. ‘OK, in a way it’s none of our business, we wanted to help you get your foot on the musical ladder, but now that you’re on it, everything’s gone crazy. How do you plan to deal with it, and is there anything that we can do to help you?’

    ‘The boys haven’t done a thing wrong. They have made a brilliant first album that thousands of people have gone out and bought,’ said Skelly. ‘We want them to keep making good music and not get distracted by what’s going on out there, which is why we are now
