(picturesource: acclaimclipart.com)

"So are you going to tell him?"
"Tell who what?"
"Gerald! Are you going to tell him?"
"What am I supposed to tell him?"
"You know Milly as your friend, I need to warn you that the truth always come out.:
"Gerald will never know that the child I have is not his. The only people who know this is not my child is you and the three doctors I paid. So be careful Jane. I hope you are not threatening me."
"Girl you know me better than that. I am just watching out for you. You know I love you girl."
"Yes... yes..." The doorbell rings.
"I am goign to have to talk to you later. Someone's at the door."
"Sawa, good day girl. Talk to you later. Mwah."
The door bell sounds again. "Hold on I am coming."
She opens the door slowly. "Hi honey. Welcome back."
"Halo Milly." Gerald pushes past her and goes to the sofa.
"You can't even give me a kiss or a hug."
"Milly, I don't need this right now. I have had a rough day. Where is the baby?"
"Really? Not even a 'how are you?' I have been busy taking care of your baby, our baby."
"Milly please, I have just broken up with Sally. I need some peace OK."
"Sally, Sally, Sally, that is all I hear, why don't you leave me then and go get married?"
 "Seriously Milly? I just had the most awkward argument, I come back and you also do the same. You know what, I need some air."
"Where are you going?"
"For a drive to cool my head off."
"You can't leave me right now. What if I need you?"
"You have my phone number."
"What if you are not nearby?"
"You can call the ambulance I will see you in the hospital."
"Sometimes I think you do not care or love your...our baby."
"NKT!" Gerald looks at her for awhile. "You know what, I can't do this right now." He goes and opens the door.
"Wait, wait. I am sorry. I have been stressed, OK"
"Just let me breathe a bit, go for a drive, I am coming back. Do you need anything?"
"Not really. Please don't leave here mad Gerald."
"OK... OK."
"How about that hug then?"
"OK." Gerald hugs her and then leaves. Milly closes the door behind her and then reaches out for her phone. She dials a number and waits for a second or two.
"Girl you wont believe? Gerald has left that skimpy of a girl, Sally."
"Eish, sawa, now your man is back. You must be happy girl."
"Of course I am. Why shouldn't I be?"
They talk for around 15 minutes when the door bell rings.
"Just a minute, I think he came back for some more of Milly. Guy can't keep his hands off me. Hahaha"
"Alright girl. Go get him."
Milly place her phone down on the table and walks to the door. She opens it to find the guard. He is panting as if he was running.
"Sema? Nikusaidia aje?"

"Madame, ni huyo jamaa ametoka hapa. Amegongwa na lorry hapo nje ya gate."

Men, we need to wake up

(all photos courtesy of Google). The world is evolving. Time is changing. Women are gaining power. Men are seated, watching, waiting for their turn. In the 90s and early 2000s all campaigns were directed at ‘empowering the women’ Do not get me wrong, women were mistreated and suffered under the tyranny of men and their egos. UNICEF created the International Day of the Girl to help end the circle of violence against adolescent girls. It is celebrated on the 11 th of October annually. Education was the major concern and center of debates, and the United Nations felt that it had serious impacts on human and economic aspects of society. Girls worldwide were forced to cook, clean and do other house hold chores while their male siblings went to school and received care and attention from parents. Girls were seen as a curse while boys were seen as a blessing. Men felt proud having a boy while mistreating the poor mother for having a girl. Something needed to

The Most Amazing Story Never Written

(Made on Canva) Alright. We need to write a short film and shoot it by the end of the month. Ok. What story are we telling? What stories excite the masses? I am not too sure. I think drama has been overwritten. Action? You think we can pull it off? We are going to need a budget for that. Not to mention we are going to need a trainer, an action director, a stunt manager, a doctor, practice the stunts, different days for shooting, a good director of photography and fit actors? Hahaha. Why do you think we would need fit actors? You trying to say we can’t find any? From the people we have. I highly doubt it. What would our actors be fighting against? Aliens? They never come to take over the world here. Zombies, our actors would run and leave us alone on the set. Moreover, we couldn’t get it approved. We don’t fight wars and we never have had heroes we can write about. How about we check online? All I found were stories about aliens, zombies and things that would never happen this side of t

Why an antagonist is important to a story

  (Made on Canva) Who is an antagonist? An antagonist is the villain of a story. It can be a human being, a natural phenomenon like a hurricane, a disease, an animal, an idea or a fictional character like a dinosaur. The aim of the antagonist is to create chaos and wreak havoc while creating obstacles for the protagonist (hero). The protagonist has to find a solution to the uncomfortable situation caused by the antagonist. In story-telling, the antagonist propels the story forward by creating an inciting incident that forces the protagonist to go on a journey to remedy the situation and restore balance. In the Dark Knight (2008), the Joker creates chaotic situations in the city of Gotham with the aim of killing the Batman. In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Thanos is looking for rings that will give him ultimate power and make him the supreme being of the universe. Why are antagonists not popular? Being an antagonist is not very appealing, especially in the acting business becau
