Those are the lines to the Sauti Sol featuring Patoranking hit song melanin. I suppose most of you have forgotten about Sheila, Tom's previous girlfriend whom I praised for her modesty and hard working traits.
Good news is that she still is. In fact, she is reported to have made arrangement to open up her own tailoring shop that would sooner than later. It all depended on the Kenya Highlands Sacco to approve her loan application. Hope it goes well.
The bad news however is that she has gone rogue. She is no longer the good girl that Tom used to know. First of all, I don't know her. I barely even know her other than the fact that she was Tom's crush before they had some nasty fallout.
Escaped the club shooting
"Ras, imagine Sheila is now a slut?""What do you mean a slut?"
"She wears miniskirts, takes alcohol and rolls with sponsors."
I had to let him repeat that because it sounded too good to be true. Sheila is doing all that? I didn't believe it till Tom showed me a short clip on his new smartphone that reinforced everything that he had just accused Sheila of.
"Remember that cop who killed one and injured a lady in Litein just last week?"
"Yes."
"She was there. But she walked out with some stranger before that cop came in and started the melee."
Should I take Tom's choice?
I was shocked but I was glad that she wasn't caught out in that hellish shower of bullets on that fateful June 26th shooting. But I was curious to know where he got that clip."Top secret my fren. But it has confirmed what I have been suspecting all along."
That reminded me of Doris and her clubbing ways which I wasn't comfortable with. I have never visited a club with her and I have refused her several entreaties to have get my company in her several clubbing outings. On those occasions, it is the evil Miriam who went out with her.
There is a saying that if you walk with wolves, you will learn how to howl. So should I break off my relationship with Doris the way Tom did with Sheila?
That is the road I haven't taken.
