"Excuse me, what did you just say please say it again I didn't hear you clearly."That was a total lie I had heard her clearly and then I just wanted her to repeat so that I can breathe and gather my thoughts to answer her."I'm saying who do you think you are? You come here you, find everything intact but you change people and you change how things have been done before.""Listen, Alfred please do not test me, I .....""My name is Alfredo, not Alfred.""It doesn't matter to me I don't care what your name is, it might as well be afraid. I am doing what I am paid to do here. I do not know what you are talking about, what do you want specifically from me? So that at least I can answer you clearly what do you say you want from me?"I didn't want to be rude I was not a rude person but something inside me was eating me alive I was boiling I could even smell the heat emanating from my intestines coming out to boil her too.She hesitated before answering me."Samantha is my friend, and we ha

Samantha started coughing I stopped looking at Alfredo and looked at the coughing Samantha."What is going on Samantha please breathe, please breathe."I didn't even want to put two and two together. All I knew was something was amiss. I just went to the manager's office."Chisomo, please come and help us around, something is wrong with Samantha, please help me. I want to take her to the hospital, I think Alfredo did something to the tea that was meant for me. Come quickly, please stop what you doing we do not have time."I didn't even want to put a full stop to my sentences. I just wanted him to help me I look at him and I thought he was being slow for me I pushed him crying but he was shocked to see tears that were gushing out without stopping."What is going on Mayamiko, please breathe?""I do not have time to breathe why are you telling me to breathe just run and come after me. We cannot wait for help we need to rush, please come with me if you can drive I will be happy."When I g

"Officers, how may I help you."To say I was shaken would be an understatement. I have never seen the police in my house in my life. Worse, I was renting, so I was wondering how my landlord was going to feel about that. What did they want?"Are you Mayamiko Nyirenda?""Yes, officer, that is me."The other officers looked at me with so much hate, I was wondering what was going on I was shaking in my boots."Madam Nyirenda, you are under arrest for the assault of Miss Alfredo who laid the charges. I would like to take you to the police station so that we get your statement you have the right to remain silent......."I didn't hear the rest it was like I was in the movie. I had seen that happening in movies I didn't think that it was going to happen to me worse in Africa. I thought in Africa they just take you and throw you into jail they didn't read your rights for you. What have I done to this girl for her to hate me so much she's the one who wanted to poison me and then she went ahead

"I am coming from a broken relationship, a broken marriage; I don't think I am ready for any relationship right now."I was being honest because I knew I would not be ready for any relationship soon. I was so emotional, I was traumatized because of Alfredo, my mind, my feelings and my state of being were in different places at the same time."Okay, I have an idea let us not call it a relationship or give it a name."I looked at him confused and he was serious he smiled. His smile always made me feel some things in my stomach; I wondered why he didn't smile often because I was going to be a cheerful person."I do not know what you're going to say but I'm listening, please enlighten me.""Let us just go with the flow and call it our ‘Stolen Moments’, on these stolen moments we should get to know each other even if it's not deep just the little things you want to throw in the conversation so that I know you. We will get there, I mean to the bigger things later on. I'm open to telling you
Stolen Moments Chapter Twenty-Three
"Come on, you just scared me to death what type of brother are you how did you get inside my house, anyway?"My brother just laughed at me, dangling the keys in my face."I knew you were going to follow in your father and mother's footsteps of leaving the keys under the pot flower. These old habits never die, they are passed from generation to generation. I already have a clue that your kids are going to be leaving the keys under the mat as well. Even your grandkids are going to do that and are going to pass it on to their grandkids, come on it's an old habit that is in our family it will never die. So what's up?"My brother spoke too casually as if he didn't just scared me to death I was shaking I even almost peed on my pants.I was so angry that I even hit him playfully on his head."Please do not do that you know Samantha is in the hospital and you almost sent me to the same hospital by your scare tactics.""Sorry I wasn't trying to scare you, I wanted to talk to you and you
Stolen Moments Chapter Twenty-Four
"You took your precious time coming here and let your mother cook the meals alone. You were supposed to come early in the morning like good women then cook a homely meal so that at least we sit down and devour it."My dad said that the moment we got inside the house. He was not angry he just smiled at us, we knew that mother loved cooking so we didn't even bother coming early. The other thing was because we were tired from the long night that we had of; movie after movie."Unfortunately we didn't take after our parents. I think we were exchanged at the hospital, that we must investigate, please go investigate."My sister had so many peculiar moments, she took after our father and I looked exactly like our parents somehow. So there was no way that we were switched at the hospital. Nevertheless, we all laughed at the thought of an insatiable hospital, at least it was smelling delicious in the kitchen."Your wife can cook, as much as you can cook at least you chose well. I hope when I ge

Once he was done talking I could relax my shoulders and my facial expressions changed I was relieved that it was not going to be something hectic. I was shaking I even cursed Alfredo for putting me in such a position in my life I had never been caught off guard or caught on the wrong side of the law. I always respected my parents, I always respected the law and I always lived by the Bible so she was making me a murderer from where I was standing I was thinking bad thoughts about her. I was even thinking that if she can be hit by a truck or if she can fall into a ditch somewhere."Okay, you are right I was very scared. I am scared of going to jail I do not know why this lady is doing this to me but I will be as honest as one can be under the circumstances. I will tell you everything I will never leave anything behind. I want this case to go away so that I can live my life."He just smiled nervously and sat down, we discussed the case in detail. He coached me on how to say some things a

We both looked at each other, from inside we could hear that it was Alfredo's voice but we were surprised about what she was doing that late in the office and what did she want with Chisomo.“Do not say anything; I do not want to attend to her because I do not want her to disturb me.”I just nodded as I was shown the ‘shush’ sign.I got down from where I was sitting and tidy myself up I was blushing and I was ashamed of what just happened, I didn't know how to react.He cleared his throat while he was fixing himself, then he asked Alfredo.“How can I help you? It’s late why are you still here? I have confidential documents here so I cannot let you in what is the problem?"I was even surprised at how calm he was because he didn't even giveaway he had somebody in the office. Was it his habit of his or was I just imagining things and being paranoid?I knew Alfredo would not come inside because once he talked about ‘confidential documents’ we could not go inside the office. Once there was
