Shock as man impregnates visiting sister-in-law

A woman in Bomet County got a rude shock after returning from her two-year studies only to learn that her husband had put her sister in the family way.

The woman had gone to college to pursue a two-year diploma course in teaching and left her sister to ‘take care’ of her  husband and children.

The shocking news broke the very day a bash had been thrown to celebrate the woman’s  graduation. A foul mood engulfed the party, as the embarrassed wife could not hold back her tears.

Her husband, popularly known as Mabele, had encouraged her to go to college so as to supplement their family income, in future. Besides, getting college training — or having a ‘course’, as they call it — greatly boosts one’s social image in the village.

The embattled wife had no one to blame but herself. “I blame myself for this situation. I am the one who invited her to my home,” lamented the woman after she rudely discovered that her sister was ‘taking good care’ of her husband.

Neighbours, who had all along suspected all was not hunky dory, revealed that Mabele did not take long to appreciate — in kind — how his sister-in-law was taking good care of his children. It took the wife two years to discover, given she rarely came home from college.

“I was only home for the holidays and during this time, my sister would go back to our parents. It never crossed my mind that there was something going on between the two,” she said.

It seems that with time, Mabele developed a special bond with his sister-in-law. The secret affair would have gone unnoticed had the young girl not fallen pregnant a few months to Mabele’s wife’s graduation.

During the party attended by Mabele’s workmates, relatives, several friends and neighbours, the young girl kept crying and sobbing hysterically, as the rest were rejoicing by singing and dancing. This prompted an inquisitive neighbour to ask her why she was crying.

At first the girl kept quiet, but after more prodding, she spilled the beans.
“Where will I go now that my sister is back. And here I am pregnant with Mabele’s child?” she asked.
She then went on to explain what happened during her sister’s absence. 

Mabele was in such in awkward position that no man should face in life. Guests started filing out of the compound as his in-laws threatened to take away his wife and the children.
The hardest part was explaining to the children the turn of events. The kids had anticipated a very enjoyable day full of feasting and happiness.

People began mumbling as they discussed the scandal in hushed tones, prompting the bash to end unceremoniously.
