Love it and when its grown eat it'
In the beginning of year 2020 I had this boyfriend who loved pets and always pressured me to choose a pet. So I thought mom would help me choose. So on a Friday afternoon, I asked her about cats. 'Mum why don't we have a cat?'. She never expected such a question from me. 'Kwani umeona panya, si nilinunua pellets itakufa tu' . So I thought for a moment and asked her why she hates cats. She told me cats wants milk, cats will p*e under your bed or even between your sheets. By that I knew calling a cat my pet would lead to my suspension from the house 😂. Since I had screenshots of cute cats on my phone I deleted them shingo upande since that dream would never come true.
I told her about my love for dogs and how they dont forget the good deeds of a man 😂. She shook her head and laughed. I thought my statement was convincing and soon I'd bring a dog home 😂. Mum convinced me that dogs will p*e on the cabbage garden, bring dead fuko for supper 😂 and I will have to go to kichinjio for meat and blood, cook ugali for the dogs and clean its kennel which ain't a simple task.
Before I could mention a lizard, mum knew I wanted a pet and she suggested a chick. She mentioned the many advantages of a chick, it will mature and lay eggs, I can use the manure to farm, I will use its feathers for decoration and during my birthdays I will always have something to feast on. I bought her idea and mentioned it to my boyfriend.
He sounded happy now that I knew what's my pet. The following day was my birthday, I expected friends, relatives, neighbours, artistes, photographers, poets, strangers, classmates, with lots of gifts 😂.
The day glowed beautifully as the sun rose hitting on my face with promising rays. My mom and auntie set the fire places and started preparing chapo and chipo. I knew it would be a great day from the faces of the two ladies. Since it was my day I didnt have much to do, just welcoming my visitors as they arrived and keeping them company before the party started.
After everything was ready, everybody was in their fitting bright oufits, the gents looked nothing less than princes and the ladies cat walked around heads held high and expensive smiles on their faces. As I p*eped through the window, I was afraid of facing the crowd, their faces had expectations which I had to meet, their stomachs expected nothing but yummy dishes 😂 and some were really thirsty😂. As I walked towards them they screamed and danced, they tossed as they wished me nothing but success, everything full of life, and the lives full of joy.
Everybody presented their gifts and I wondered where was my boyfriend all this time. Friends started asking whether I was single and what kind of a guy I like. As each question came my way, fear grew, pool of tears gathered wondering where my boyfriend could be, or he had dumped me on my birthday. Not that I feared being dumped😂, but I wouldn't like it either.
Before we all walked to the dancing floor, my unapologetic talk, dark boyfriend, walked in. Every step towards me filled the room with excitement.A new exciting fragrance filled the airas king walked towards the queen😹, classmates envied him, photographers took their shots as artistes praised him in tunes. I expected a marriage proposal on this birthday or a car keys with a kiss 😂. But he has a small box on his hands, no golden wrappers, not even a shopping bag 😒😂.
He embraced me, I broked in tears as I rested in my place of comfort, a position where I forget all my fears, where I feel nothing but our beautiful chemistry and I feel the envy of the world towards us.
As the crowd screamed and tossed to our love ,my boyfriend opened the box and presented me with a chick 😂. He also handed me a note that read 'Here is your pet, look after it, love it and when its grown eat it' 🤣🤣.
Its been 3 months now,the chick looks unapologetically healthy ❤️.
Some Exes though 🥺♥️😂😂.
