On that evening seated alone in the house , two text messages rang on my phone the first said: Ni Eva alikuja asubuhi we reconcile akanikasirisha nikatoka nikamuacha kwa nyumba nikaenda kwa bar.
2nd text messages : it not like you were boning me alone so you cant put the blame on me .
Huh? I though this doesnt look like it was meant for me so I went to sleep. 4 am in the morning the drunk walks in and falls asleep immediately. 5 am my alarm goes off, I wake up do my daily morning ritual that is shower , dress makeup et al basically get ready for work . Then I spotted the phone and decided what the hell let me find out what the misplaced text messages were for. How I pick up useless information like security codes or lock codes is beyond me but I found the chain of texts and got to reading. So apparently while all this while I had been the wife who came over every weekend to cook and clean and pamper him rather in my head spend time with him , there was actually the weekday whore for lack of a better word who would drop by every so often to satisfy her sexual desires or vice versa . Sitted on that bed that early in the morning I turned to my side and looked at him fast asleep, snoring, and reeking of alcohol............
I then looked at the bed I was sitted on and immediately got off. This was the bed we had been sharing for 2 years and a few months but it had now dawned on me that I , was not the only one on that bed.
To Stella the childhood friend who he repeatedly slept with and who always received your 2 am text messages only to be told off in the morning with one sentence i insist I was drunk and who too had shared the same bed I had been sitted on a few minutes ago, to the southcoast outing and the all night rave she had on your bill while I paid for my and your southcoast trip and all night rave through and through. To you Stella who loaned him money for house rent as he did too and she who got to cook you dinner on 3rd of January 2012 after I left Mombasa. Personal thought for you , for your age and the length of time you have worked someone would think you would have better control of your finances or better yet know when your bills are due .Incase you never knew he pays less rent than you.
To Kui who always received the drunken, horny invite for a vodka sleep over and who too shared that same bed and the I have kinda missed you text message every so often.The sex he never got over......
To Njoki who keeps getting the offer to play nurse to a drunken cold or flu , being called deary and swiry same distasteful words used on me as well the drunken horny invites for a short notice sleep over and come with your clothes notification .
To the dear ex girlfriend Mel who would and will get 2-3 text messages each year for being the first love and the idiot who almost killed herself for him and off course the yearly birthday text messages with an offer for birthday sex.
To Scola for all the days you spent in the house I apparently made him buy for me with all the things and to the good thing you all had going even though you could not meet his friends and would have to wait at the stage for an hour or so , so that no one could see you come and leave . I hope all the sex and insults were worth it . You can keep the house and all that is in it including the bed and FYI the 425 shillings you sent via mpesa can only buy 2 rounds of crescent vodka with coke and will still come with change. Guess we all shared the house too since you could get the keys any time you wanted . FYI I was the one who cleaned out all the used condom wrappers you used and threw under the bed and did the shopping for all the dinners he made for you and God knows who else .
To Elyza the almost would be mother of his child. I hope you enjoyed new years eve and hope you are still not afraid to sleep with him as you used to before. Yes he is capable of that and a whole lot more.This time round you might just get the baby you both deserve for not using a condom.
To the text message list namely:Kui , Njoki , Linah , Roselyne and Eve. Three of you on the done side the next 3 on the pending to do list. You will continue to receive the same text message for all of you and I guess for days to come and being the ladies you are, will graciously reply and carry on the conversation for a week until you all receive the same text message the following week again !!. Bottom line is you all of you just like me will end up in the done list just like everything else he has ever done and so goes on the cycle.
Roselyne for every evening drink you will get , for every something different like early morning breakfast in town before you go to Kikuyu, Linah will get the same and when you do give it up to him so will Linah at almost around the same time.
Dear Eve your naivety is what got you to be introduced to his girlfriend in dis mission that you are not mature enough and that same naivety is what will get you to bed with him .Grow up and find out what happens in the real world . At the end of the day it is just sex.
Dont take this as an insult because its not its just the view of an outsider, a careful observer of just how people innocently or not ,walk into and create their own messes and the only excuse he will ever give is you wanted to sleep with him.This is me just letting the world know what transpired and just how bitter I am .
So as I turned to my side and looked at him fast asleep, snoring and reeking of alcohol. I looked at the bed I was sitted on and I made a choice. This is not what I wanted for me .This is not what I want to wake up to for the rest of my life. Just as I had figured before that you have no idea what you wanted from this life , I am not willing to stand by and get infected or used . If you did not use them on me what makes me so sure in your typical drunken nature that you will always use them on everything else . a vicious cycle yes but one you have clearly mastered . I will call my self an idiot better yet a fool but no more. You can keep the house you so graciously made for me after all I am not the only one in it .
Good bye dear weekend wife . You clearly lost to the whores and and the ´girl friends´ or is it friends whom he has known from way before he ever met me .
