I tried to flag some cars down but no one would stop.nikaanza kutembea taratibu pembeni pembeni mwa barabara nikitumai nitaweza kupata mtu japo wa kunipa lifti,nilikuwa nimechanganyikiwa kwa kweli na giza lile,ilikuwa ni mida ya saa mbili kuelekea tatu usiku."Need a ride black?".a familiar voice rang to my ear.Nikageuka kuangalia ktk gari pale barabarani.alikuwa ni kocha anayetufundisha mpira shuleni kwetu.Man i was lucky!."Hey coach my car broke i was on my way home,you mind giving me a ride?".nikamwomba."Hamna shida,lakini i gotta drop some food off at my home first,halafu nitakupeleke sawa?".sikumjibu.I jumped in his truck and he took me back to his house.
Nakumbuka nilikuwa nimemaliza form 4 (mwaka kapuni).kwa kuwa mimi naishi kinondoni na wazazi wangu,niliona kama nabanwa sana,nikaamua kwenda zangu kukaa na Ankal (Uncle) wangu maeneo ya mikocheni.huko mjomba akanitafutia chuo maeneo ya posta mpya karibu na jengo la Benjamin W. Mkapa pansion towers.nikawa "napoteza muda" pale wakati nasubiri majibu yangu yatoke.
