Nana

There’s a opus called Nana. A philharmonic banger featuring Joshua Baraka, it was aboriginal remixed by Joeboy, King Promise, and our precise ain philharmonic genius Bien. I truly emotion this song. But somehow, it's besides 1 of those songs that agitate maine the astir erstwhile I perceive to it.

November 2023, I was heading to Nairobi and happened to committee the aforesaid matatu with a miss I similar to telephone Daktari. She was perfectly beautiful. Ngulusumu kama mimi, I knew astatine nary constituent could I ever person a accidental with Laktar. Somehow her M-Pesa refused to work... Niligrab that accidental and paid for her. She paid maine backmost aboriginal earlier hata tufike Nairobi, and I told her I'd prevention her number. She agreed. I won’t spell into item astir however she slept connected my shoulders during the travel and however she held my manus arsenic I took her to Archives.

We started talking casually, and things progressed. They accidental the cardinal to a man’s bosom is food, but I’d besides reason the cardinal to astir women’s “heart” is inactive food. As a ngulusumu and a brokie, I was 2–nil down, lakini I usually cognize however to navigate my problems. I’d invitation her to “street nutrient dates” wherever we’d spell connected a spree eating thoroughfare foods... ma-smocha, samosas, cakes, crystal cream, and each that. It was cheap, but she loved it... like, ace loved it.

The archetypal reddish emblem was erstwhile my nduthi feline happened to cognize her... “We morio kwani wewe ndo sikuizi uko na Daktari?” That connection was the archetypal reddish flag. She had besides told maine her ex was inactive connected her cervix akimsumbua, but infatuation knows however to marque radical colour-blind.

One Friday, I invited her to a concert, and she accepted. We drank each nighttime and vibed to music. But erstwhile this opus played, Daktari hugged maine tightly and sang it to maine similar she meant it. When it ended, she told maine we could date, that I had a chance. We were some drunk, but that infinitesimal determination was genuine.

She slept astatine her spot that nighttime for immoderate reason, and the adjacent greeting I woke up to the astir devastating WhatsApp status. A representation of Daktari successful baggy pajamas and achromatic hands connected her thighs. It was captioned with a connection from Daktari announcing however she was getting backmost with her ex.

I inactive wonderment however she had the guts to ruin this beauteous opus for me. Because present each clip I perceive it, it reminds maine of however I was lied to.

Anyways... life. Send maine different abbreviated pistillate from the upland to destruct me.
