"Sally? Sally? Sally wake up."

"What is it Gerald?"

"It is time we started leaving. The park is closing."

Gerald and Sally were on a nature trail. They had decided to visit the park on their second date.

"Sally, you awake?" Gerald tries tickling her. She wakes up laughing.

"Yes, yes I am awake. Aki wewe. Let me just pick up my things we leave?"

"Things, what things? You only came in with your purse. (Sarcastically) Are you alright?"

"Yes I am. I just wanted to waste some time here."

"The park will close and you want to spend the night here?" Gerald looks at her as if he is shocked.

"Why not?"

He spells it out for her. "W-I-L-D A-N-I-M-A-L-S! Or we may be mistaken as poachers! Duh!"

"OK. OK."

They both stand up holding hands and start walking to the gate.

"I had fun by the way. I am not really a nature person, but it was good to see some animals, get some fresh air and get time to know you better."

"Any time my Lady." Gerald takes a courteous bow. He stands up and they continue walking. "I had fun as well. Next time we will go to Olepolos and eat some serious Nyama Choma."

"Sounds like a deal."

It all fades to black. Sally starts hearing the sound of an ambulance wailing. She tries to nudge herself awake.

"She is coming around. Miss? Miss can you hear me?"

She mumbles a weak 'Yes'. "What happened?" She struggles rubbing her face and trying to wake up. The pediatrician pushes her back on the stretcher.

"You fainted. Your neighbors found you on the floor and called us. We are going to hospital right now. You just had a shock, so try to relax, everything will be fine."

She lies back and blacks out again.

It is my child

(all photos taken from google.co.ke) (www.clipartbest.com) Gerald is seated sipping his drink slowly. He is admiring the house, trying to remember the many graceful memories he has had the past two year. However, it is time to call it quits. He has to move on, somehow. Sally comes in and seats besides him and notices something is off. “What is wrong Gerald?” Gerald breathes in and out. He picks up three papers from the table and hands them to Sally. “We need to talk Sally.” He looks at her trying to be as gentle as possible. “I am sorry Sally. It is over between us. I need to go take care of my baby.” There is a brief pause. “Ati, what? What did you just say Gerald? Am hearing you right? You want to leave me? Why?” Gerald can see she is becoming hysterical. He was not sure how to break it to her, but he felt telling it to her face would have been easier, how wrong he was. “It’s Milly. She was pregnant when I left her and now she has my son; one year old

It's nothing new

(Bully Fanon website) It is quite a shame that Alliance has to be in the news for the wrong reasons. Usually they are in it, shouting and praising the form fours who had left the previous year for the ‘ A ’ s they brought to the school. To some it is a new phenomenon that students are beating students, but to me it is not. I went to a so called ‘ bush ’ high school. It is however famous in the part of the county it hails from. Here, beating of students by fellow students was a common thing during my time. It was almost routine. To make it worse, once you were beaten by the prefects they took you to the teachers who also beat you. Of course they were not using sticks only to beat their fellow students, but anything they found. Those who were forwarded to the teachers were usually those who had resisted the beating. The teachers also found out that sticks were ineffective and felt the need to use their fists to correct the errors of the student. I am not writing th

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
