So I had now already stayed in Kericho for about an year and I could say I was kind of a pagan at this point,not say I had stopped believing,no,I still used to pray and read the word but I was really angry at God.I thought I had finally met the one but as the Swahili saying goes,"yaliyopita si ndwele" (let the bygones go).I had become better overtime and even grown a bit chubbier staying with mom and drinking mursik (a combination of milk and blood) from my culture.It was time to go back to the city and start over.Probably go find God again and make an oath to never fall in love again.Well,I guess we all say that at some point,unless I'm crazy.So I got back to the big city,Nairobi and began my new job as a waitress at a good restaurant and did church work part time.

First Sunday at church everyone was super happy to see me.All I got was,"Chau,where have you been,we missed you.How was life abroad?why did you come back?" Little did they know I was busy caring after cattle at home.I could just smile and brush off the questions,rather the assumptions.So after a few Sundays,I noticed Kantai was no longer coming to church so phew! I was safe.I could serve again in church and be happy...Little did I know,i had just moved from the pan and into the fire itself.I guess I love roasted meat.Lol.

During one Sunday service I saw heard the pastor leading service call out the preacher for the day.First of all,the pastor leading,Pastor Manuel,is such a hottie,I am not saying this in that way,no,not the way you are thinking,okay maybe the way you are thinking...Gosh! Forgive me Lord.I had always had a crush on him,since day one..its just that He's married and well,he refers to me as younger sis so I am zoned.But he is such a fine gentlema....okay stop Chau,you are now coveting.So back to my story (phew) pastor Manuel calls in the preacher," pastor David Kantai" wait what?!what is going on here?honestly if this is a dream then I want to wake up! This cannot be at all.Kantai is now a pastor?! At our church? Hollup,how? I almost fainted.My friend just held my hand and said,"yeah,I know girl.I was shocked too..Be easy tho"

Be easy Tabby? How?why was God doing this to me all over again?This wound had healed,at that moment,it felt like the wound had been re opened and added salt and menthylated spirit on it.Too much!!!
