Fated Journey

Emmanuel Kiptoo

They say love is a strong union,a seal and an unbreakable bond between two souls that have just intertwined through feelings and affection. Although sounds as lust but it is stronger than lust. After having completed my Highschool education in Kenya, I was waiting for the related body(KUCCPS)to place the qualified students to the higher levels of education including universities. There was a certain whatsapp group where all students from all over the country received updates on the university placement proceedings. So one fine Saturday as I was taking lunch on a certain construction site where I used to work as a casual labourer, I saw a message from a lady on whatsapp. She was asking for friendship with me and she claimed that she got my number from the KUCCPS group. To make the matters worse was the fact that she claimed to be interested in me. She asked my name and I told her am Mash, simply Mannu. We exchanged photos and unfortunately I sent her a picture of mine when I was school uniform.It happened that she was really interested to know the school. I lied to her I attended an International School in Nairobi called Braeburn group of schools clearly knowing that I had attended a small sub county school back in western part of Kenya. Ofcourse I only wanted to catch her attention for I had already started to gain interest in her. The truth is that it seemed a miracle to me since I knew myself as an ugly boy and never handsome to the point that even if I was a lady I could not accept to date a man like me. My self esteem was really down. I proposed to the girl and she accepted. I was overjoyed that day. That whole night I never slept. Just imagine a guy like me dating such a princess. It was like a dream. So we planned to meet but I was very reluctant since I doubted she would change her mind on seeing my so considered ugly face. We shared alot and I really find out that she was the girl of my dreams. I lied to her that I live in Lavington where my dad owns a 4bedroom 2 storey mansionette. As a matter of fact I lived with my dad in a slummy area of Kawangware in a single iron sheet walled house which is the cheapest. My dad was just a mason but she knew her as a civil engineer. As for her she lives a standard life where her mum is a nurse and her dad is late.

     Now here comes the problem. It happened that I really love the girl so much and I see a future with her. I don't date for fun but for a marriage. That has always been me. We are planning to meet. But she claims she wants to introduce me to her mother who already has my number. She wants to introduce me to her entire family. Honestly I never expected her to be such serious in this relationship.

    The problem is that she also wants to know my family. I cannot take her to the slums yet I claim to be a rich kid. What should I really do guys. The truth is that  I love her. Luckily enough we were placed in nearby universities where she will pursue law and I wanna pursue Education French. I have great plans to get my family out of poverty before introducing her to them but she wants it really soon. The lady is so much into me and sometimes she sents me money for some few shoppings. Guy,do you think should I risk and open up to the girl or just walk out of her life considering that I too really love her despite that I cheated her at first just to win her. Sent your reviews.
