How can you eat my food, shower, sleep and just jump out like a grasshopper. It’s while I was thinking of the best revenge when my phone started lighting. I had turned it to silent mode for I thought it wanna be a great night.
‘Hi sweetheart?’ it was Rita on line. She relieved my pain, she made my mind divert from the fake church girl.’Umelala aje?’ she continued. ‘Nimelala poa dear’ I lied. That night was the worst since the day I quit wetting the bed.
I started falling for Rita. I told you guys, the best love story is with the least unexpected person. She sounded sweet on call. If you have realised a woman’s voice is so sweet immediately she has woken. Rita turned my mind from that of a hater to a lover. It was a Sunday morning after all. We spoke for about 30mins. She told me how her Saturday was and how she had missed my company.
By the time she hanged up my battery had started warning me. After about 3mins my phone vibrated. KLC677YHSFJ6 Confirmed 3027 received from Rita Wambui. Current balance 7426. Shortly another text followed.’that’s for your breakfast dear. Wish we shared together ‘she affirmed. I replied and thanked her for being a shoulder to lean on. I placed my phone on charge and went to shower.
On my return I found 3 missed calls. Rita had tried reaching me. I bought airtime from mpesa and called her back. She received and told me ‘hang wacha nikukol’. I tell you when a woman is in love she can do anything including calling you back, a thing not common with an average Kenyan lady.
She called and made a request, ‘Dear nataka kukuomba favour na please naomba usikatae’. The last time a lady asked a favour from me it was cash related, which she never refunded at the end of the week. I knew Rita isn’t that type. In 4 days she had sent me like 10k. ‘Go ahead dear’ I responded. ‘Do you mind us going for dinner tonight’? No man can decline such an offer, kwanza ukiskia kuna ‘foods’.’No problem dear, what time?’ I inquired. At 6pm we were entering a high end restaurant at Westlands.The first time I set foot in such a joint. It’s like Rita had a prior arrangement with the waiters. The moment we entered we were ushered to a private nicely lit section. It had two doors, one at the entry and the other to I think the balcony. It had only one
table with two chairs. It was quiet, ample and nicely lit with a fresh fragrance striking my nose. I later learnt the second door leads to another room and not the balcony. We started talking and then the waiter approached to ask for our orders. I requested for beef bourguinon and her flaminche with milk shake( google kama hujui hizo ndo nini). Do you expect me to go to a five star and request for chipo kuku or chapo chafua the way I do nikienda kwa Njugunas keg bar and café.
