Wife ameamuka mapema, kapika breakfast kisha ame enda kitchen ya nje akawasha moto, akachemsha maji ameoga (bado umeme haujarudi).
Nimeamuka nikapata kiamsha kinywa hapo nje. Nikaona mboch akichuna maparachichi akaniambia ni mama amemwambia achune si kushughulika saidi. Kumbe wife naye anajitayarisha huko ndani.
Kidogo kidogo naona ametoka na carrier bag ya maparachichi, bible (I don't know why she insists on the hard copy thing!) na guitar mgongoni.
"Kwani unaenda?", I ask.
" Si kanisani", she answers.
"Kwani kuna nini", I ask.
Kwa nini?" she answers.
I ask why they are going on a Saturday and that's when it dawns on her that today is not tomorrow. The avocados are for their Women's Sunday when they bring stuffs to auction to raise money for charity work. Jana being a holiday messed up her calendar.
Tumecheka tu kidogo.

Back when I was a kid nililala afternoon, it had rained heavily. Nikaamka around six. Haraka haraka nikanawa uso (Nani aoge daily siku hizo?), nikavaa uniform, took my books and headed to school. All while wondering, Kwani bro hakuniamsha! Only to find him with other boys playing on the wet road surface. Sijawahi chekelewa hivyo!
 
When I got circumcised, according to our tradition one has to undergo a 7 day rest for healing. During those 7 days, you don’t get enough sleep coz, most people will come to visit you and some for sleepovers. When my 7 days were over I remember twas on a sato,I went to visit my cousin who I had gone a day earlier before him. So he was to complete his last days on that Sunday.

That whole night we slept playing cards and draft, nikatoka kwao 5 and went straight to bed. Hiyo Sunday yote I slept and when I woke up ilikua usiku, so I thought its still Sunday morning. Hizo siku hakukua na simu wale watch. So I continued sleeping till Monday morning,nakuta mathee amerelax kitchen, nikamuuliza kwani haendi church. She told me it’s a Monday morning, jana ndio ilikua Sunday. Thats how i skipped a Sunday.

Reminds me of high school. Jamaa alilala games time. Kusikia kengele ya supper anadhani ni bell ya chai morning. Mbio na kikombe hadi dining room
