Unrequited love is worse than the worst hate. Otile Brown, Kenya’s heartthrob can relate. Isn’t he who sung “saa zingine unayempenda anapenda mwengine” then proceeds to cry for a whole 3 minutes and 43 seconds? Isn’t that what Dr Jose Chameleone was singing about in Dorotia? Even the Good Lord above understands, or why is it that Lucifer, who reappears every now and then in short, foreheaded Nairobi girls irks Him?
Anyone in the streets (and sheets) can tell you about the one that got away. There is no capture-recapture in such Chekhov-like tales of loss and love. In a country where everyone is Staying Taliban, there is no hope for the wicked. An old woman always gets uncomfortable when dry bones are mentioned.
Beatrice Wambui Bobo, who has wet eyes like the morning dew on Kisii Napier grass joins us in studio. She is not just well-spoken, but speaks well. Too bad we have all lost, too bad we can’t tell you how to win her back. That’s like taking marriage advice from The Murayas.
How do I know I am in love? Well, for starters, if you have to ask, then you are not.
