The miracles HELB can perform

Ringera had just fixed me up. My pocket was now sweltering. This time, HELB chaps decided to surprise us. They disbursed the whole academic year’s amount, instead of the normal half disbursements each semester. I was damn rich. So I headed to town from Rongai. I was dying to squander that cash. I longed to reach the CBD.  

Then the driver pulled up at Galleria, where this light-skin chic made her way in. She stole everyone’s attention. Everybody charted her. There was no way I was going to let her alight without my word. I wished the chair next to me was empty. I would have gestured her to sit there. She proceeded to the seat next to that mzee. And you know these old chaps don’t like the perfumes that these young women wear. I started figuring out how to swap seats with that mzee.
