Mimi ni mkiristo na yesu ni mwokozi wa maisha yangu,lakini nilifanya maneno yenye inanikera.It was in December last year when I was visiting my uncle in Mombasa.It was a while before I saw her so I wanted to celebrate my Christmas with him.
I went to Nairobi CBD and took my ticket.On Friday at exactly 6.30 pm the journey started. I was sitted next to a tall, dark and handsome man who only greeted me and just kept quiet.
Driver alipea garimafuta hadi Sultan Hamud.All this time the man was quiet.But after passing Sultan Hamud,he realized that his phone was exhausting it’s power.He asked,”uko na charger unisaidie?” I looked at her face and responded promptly,”niko na ingine hapa sijui kama itakusaidia”.I gave him and he was happy.That’s when our conversation started.
For close to 30 minutes,we were talking about life and employment.I learnt that he worked with a bank…I also work in a bank.I also inquired about his marital status and realized he was single.
By the time we were approaching Tsavo,it was late in the night, almost everyone in the bus was quiet and sleepy. But the two of us were chatting in low tone.However,it reached a point I got exhausted and by accident I leaned on him.
I was in deep sleep for some minutes before I realized the man was closing on to my two sockets on the chest. I tried to pretend that I didn’t want his touch but my conscience told me, “please allow him! “I relaxed to allow him tune them as he wished.
At Mtitu Andei,he had managed to know my body, I had also known his and the only thing that was remaining is to go beyond the basics. He kept quiet for a while and told me,”aki sioni nikimake hadi coast, please allow me once”.I didn’t answer him, but I waited him to do whatever he wanted because I was equally confused and ready for anything.
When the bus approached Voi we realized almost everyone in it was asleep. I heard the man extend his hand akapisha huko chini na kunishika.Nilimwanmbia,”Jose aki wacha,unataka watu wasikie?” Even after hearing my cry he didn’t stop.alinishika hadi nikajiachilia halafu akaniambia,”kuja unikalie”
We ended up doing it in the bus as other passengers were asleep.
Upon arrival in Mombasa,we exchanged numbers and each of us went.But after one month,I missed my periods. When I took a test,I found out that I was pregnant. I immediately called Jose who refused to take responsibility and claimed I am a stranger.
It’s now to months to my delivery date and I am bitter and angry. I honestly don’t know what to do because I wasn’t ready to become a parent. The father of my unborn child is nowhere to be seen and my parents are asking hard questions.
