That is understandable. Under these circumstances, I wouldn't want to add to her medical problems by trying to force the impossible. Her parents don't know about our little arrangement and I intend to make it remain like that. How I survived detection and spent close to twenty minutes at that closely guarded place is the subject of this blog today.
Then she came

Then she came.
I'm talking about Miriam, who was also at home. I didn't want to think of it as a coincidence that the two best friends are at home at the same time. I hope that when Doris gets better and when we meet next month she will be able to tell me about the whole thing.
"Sasa ras,"
"Poa. Siku mingi?"
"Yeah."
The ruse worked
After we talked about movies, she broke the news to me and invited me to give her company later on when she was visiting Doris. I agreed knowing that Jay won't be around in the afternoon and Felix had agreed to cover for me after I tipped him with a quarter bottle of his favourite booze."Shika hizi" Miriam handed me a bunch of bananas. The disguise was that I was helping her to carry them to Doris place, hence remove any suspicion.
The ruse worked. I carried the bananas and placed it at their kitchen and saw Doris warming up at the fireplace. She smiled and winked at me furtively and I winked back. I had wished to hold her in a tight embrace but that was never meant to be thanks to the presence of her mother.
Miriam went into the kitchen and joined the two ladies in a discussion. I had to contend with staying outside and put up with her father's tasteless chats about the state of Kenyan politics.
Though we never talked, I feel like I scored vital bonga points with her. Thanks to Miriam.
