My story

Imagine a guy is in love with a girl [Sue] and then, he gets a job at firm that’s so away from his home that he has to leave his woman. At his new place of work he meets a certain free-spirited girl [lets call her April] who, as you may think, the possibility of ‘pushing together’, as we Kenyans like to blatantly put it, is far from close. However they do become friends and in the course of their lives they grow to like each other. As all cute stories go, they start to communicate with each other and the April finally realizes that she loves our ‘jamaa’. The twist comes at this stage coz the guy has been trotting around and at that time is in love with another woman, April, and so is kinda cheating on Sue. The girl moves on. No hard feelings though, but some uncovered emotions are left hanging!........pls pardon my poor English [a language that came to Africa on boat just like guns and the bible and that’s part of why I don’t totally believe in either but that’s an issue for another day]. The guy goes and marry’s his first love; they have a great and wonderful kid. After a few years they get divorced and the guy is left all alone with him thinking that the girl he loved most, April, already taken. A time, fortunately and much to my appreciation, comes when he finally gathers up some sort of courage and decides to face his girl………………………the rest is in the future, and not history, as people have so over-used the phrase.
I know the story’s true taste and suave and everything else that I experienced...........a breather…………………… are watered down by my poor descriptive ability and also due to the fact am not an accomplished writer. The script is from ‘Definitely, Maybe’. That movie is soooo in the same lines of a P.S.I-love-you-kinda love: now that’s another cute and nice and a flick that makes you just go aaaaaaahh! And ooooo!! And makes a guy (not me……hehehe) just wanna cry! That’s a secret between me and you. Don't tell anyone. Now the above two, flicks, got me thinking of how we just let good things pass us by on account of our cowardliness. The issue am talking about here is ELUSIVE: love. If you like someone why don't you go and tell them so. I know it’s hard but what will you loose. Absolutely nothing. You’ll only gain more confidence to move on in life. I thence decided to go and conquer the world with my new found wisdom. Wish me luck coz am about to just go and do that. Tootles!?!

1. Why are dreams so surreal? If its pain or love or any other emotion it feels like you are actually experiencing them right there and then!
2. Why is it………………………………………and what is it with the whys today...that if a person is taken in by another person he/she finds him/herself practicing, unknowingly and unintentionally of course before the actual meeting? Be it planned or just at random!
3. Aren’t the following just ‘no-word-having-emotion-creating-like’ [well, it sounded sensible while being written]:

Lazizi – Sauti [wicked Kenyan crew]
Amini - Pentharmony
The Real Thing – Jill Scott
Miss Thickness – Jill Scott (from experience +826)
Alicia Keys ft. Busta Rhymes - Falling (Remix)
Do Re Mi – 4th Avenue Jones
Possible – Dwele

Add yours, please.

You know what, I watched p.s I love you and I realised am in the same predicament as that guy was...

I agree. What is there to lose in letting someone know you like them? Please go ahead, lest you live all your life wondering 'what if'.

That applies to @Nzembi too. Games hurt.
