EMBARRASSING MOMENT

So the D day  arrived, my friend Immaculate was getting married to her long time lover Mutiso. The reception was hosted at a very beautiful, well manicured garden somewhere in Nairobi.

I had prepared for that day, i even traveled all the way to Mombasa to make my attire for the day - the fundi i trust with my cloth is based in Mombasa, nilijipanga properly. The theme for the wedding was white but i chose to play it safe with off white, lest i look like a zebra crossing (melanin things). As usual my tailor did not disappoint, he made a very nice African attire, i even tipped him handsomely in addition to his charges.

Back to the D day, i woke up very early to prepare, i arrived at the venue some minutes to 1300hrs, people had settled down, i can assure you i was the center of attention for quite sometime, i had called some other friends to keep me a seat at a vantage point so i joined them at their table.

The couple arrived from the photo secession, and after some dancing it was time for lunch, soon long lines formed to the serving points. The aroma from the food (biriani ya kuku) was just heavenly - i had recommended the cook from kilifi to the couple and he did not disappoint.

It was our turn to serve, the cook spotted me and choose to serve me himself, he did it and he did it generously. Remember my out of this world African attire? As i was walking back to my seat, down comes an Eagle, in the process of the Eagle grabbing a drumstick (the biggest of the four my friend the cook had served me generously), the Biriani puree splashed on my out of this world African attire creating a very ugly pattern. From being the center of attraction for being very "smart" now i am the center of attraction for my out of this world attire being ruined by i guess a hungry Eagle.

I was very embarrassed, i put the plate with the remaining food at some table and walked away to a a far corner, called a Uber and went back home. My day had just been ruined..
