Chapter Fifteen

Timi

I waited in the car for about ten minutes before Nahlela came down. She looked as beautiful as ever.  She said she didn’t want to go anywhere far and she suggested Chambo Masters Inn which wasn’t far from her house. I didn’t know the place so she gave me directions as we went. it was an old building which looked like it had seen better days. There was soot on the wall in front which was probably from the fire place which was used in roasting meat which was popularly known as suya. The music was low and there was a television at one corner which was showing a football match. The place was filled with men and boys who were watching the match together. I spotted an empty table at one corner and led Nahlela there. I asked Nahlela if she was comfortable and she said she was okay.  

When we were settled down, a waiter appeared and took our orders. Both of us ordered for Smirnoff
