,,,,,,,,,,,”Conrad, huu mwezi sijaona periods”. The news of her pregnancy shocked me. What however surprised me is she was happier than expected. From the conversation she
wanted to be with me, “Conrad, imagine hii boli inanifanya maneno, mtoto anataka nikue karibuna
wewe kila wakati?
’ I was totally confused Yani Rita is expectant, Khadija pia on the other end is confirming the same. WTF is this?kwani sheetani ameniekea multibet si hata ningejua ninge withdr,, I mean cash out? so a few days ago I was just a mere bachelor with just a normal lifehood so sahi am going to be called baba ya watoto kwani hii life sylabus inaendaje araka? I switched off my phone and went back. After the call I felt weak. Not weak parse but weak, sickly and confused. How was I going to
manage all this?
I didn’t want to stress myself much. I took out a chewing gum that Mercy had
given me and started chewing. After all the two women were old enough. They could make their
own decisions and mark u I never raped them. . I was still thinking of how to handle this matter when Mercy tapped me, ‘Are you okay?’ She asked
staring into my eyes.
‘Oh yah, am very well dear’ I lied. It did not take long before Mercynoted that
am not okay. After BS she asked me, ‘Conrad be honest, I know you are not well. Is anything bothering you? Talk to me I am a nurse’ I remembered
what our Psychology 101 lecturer had once told us: if anything is bothering you just share it out. After Mercy persisted on knowing I opened up to her. “Don’t worry about that. If I were you I will
be happy that soon I am gonna be a father to a lovely kid…Conrad, remember someone out there
is barren…. Conrad, ang’owa ang’owa…’
After the lengthy comforting message I felt so much relieved. ‘Conrad I won’t leave without seeing you happy’ she assured me. At about 330PM we drove to Tumaini supermarket. We did a little shopping. When I removed money to pay she told me don’t mind. She removed a Barclays bank Credit card and paid the 3,759 purchase. We drove to my house.
“Let me cook for you today, have a rest”, Mercy said. She gave me some capsules and in less than 5Minutes they had knocked me down. When I woke up I felt completely relieved. I got Mercy watching a movie. ‘Oh how are you feeling now?’ she asked. ‘I am exemplary good’ I was honest. ‘Ok I have to take my leave now. I have prepared you stew and Chapatis you can have them later on’. What I also noted she had washed all the utensils, wiped the cooking area, removed the clothes I had aired on the verandah and folded
them. I was so amazed. This is a true story. From that day, bearing in mind what she had done
for me, I saved her as Doctor Mercy Korir. Since that day Mercy became more than a friend. She
became my confidant. We became each other confidants. I remember one day she called me to
tell me of a Doctor who was hitting on her and requested me to stop him. She actually laid the
plan. She requested her father to lend me his Porsche Cayenne car and for a week. Every day I
drove to work to pick her. When the Doctor saw her husband (who is now me faking it) picking
her, he apologised and went for girls size yake. After supper I escorted mercy. She had told me
she was going to work the next morning which was Monday. We hugged bye at the parking lot
