Carrying such a huge amount of money around made me feel uncertain. I wanted to buy a Yamaha sport bike worth $3000 and at the same time deposit $40,000 at Ruaraka homes for a 6 acre of land being sold around Mount Kenya region.
I made my calculation and realized I still had more than enough to spend. Well, Lynn will spend the rest I figured out as the Uber brought us to our destination, just a brick away from Thika Arcade. The sack filled with money was not so suspicious, but I feared that anyone might recognize me and create drama. So I made Lynn take the sack and order her to save some money in her M-Pesa wallet.
Standing inside the Safaricom shop, I saw Lynn admiring some newly released android phones and joined her. I picked the most expensive iPhone 14 pro max worth $3100 and handed it to her. I checked around and my eyes landed on an android Samsung galaxy z worth $240, I liked it. I made the purchase and paid in full without a bargain. I say Lynn had the happiest smile in her life.
With all that luxury shopping, we had enough time for a cup of coffee and dress shopping. I was not hungry for food but for spending. My Yamaha Sportbike was delivered after 30 minutes from the nearest motor company while we were having coffee.
Lynn's order was a delicacy she always salivated for, the name of the dish is out of my head but I remember seeing lobsters and crabs on a silver platter placed for her. Next came the white snail and crabs, which she exclaimed and dug in with gluttony. I had never seen her so greedy as she pushed the last bit of her food for me. No way I was eating that. My coffee was enough.
The bill came in, and it turned out our small coffee and snails were $10,000.
"What!" I exclaimed.
But Lynn paid up using my money and smiled saying she love me so much. This made me forget everything as I showed myself off to her. Today was her day. But I had not planned on spending this much on her. The guy from the motor company was still waiting for me to finish the transaction and sign the papers so I let Lynn stroll around as I finish my business.
I used the money Lynn had just saved in her M-Pesa wallet to make payment for my bike balance and let her save some more again.
She was doing all kinds of shopping. With her, I was going to be broke sooner, but it never crossed my mind.
"When are we going home?" Lynn asked as she had her last dress packed. (An hour after our Coffee) I had long ordered a pick-up van to deliver our stock to the village, so I just pulled her close to me and assured her.
"Before dark," I replied as I had the delivery men pack all the goods in the van. "Let's surprise mother." I smiled as we went to the Society store and again made a bulk purchase of cereals. This food would be enough to last my family for a time. Now that I have money I need not worry about how I was spending it.
With all that, I called my younger sister alerting her to receive the delivery. I explained and apologized for my lateness as she cried out for me to buy her something sweet. I stared at Lynn who smiled back and showed me her old Huawei phone. "This is for Fiona."
"And this for Harley." I smiled back as we fixed the issue with the sisters' gifts. I was going to hand down my phone to my sister one day, she had always coveted it.
By 7 pm we were set for the village, an hour's drive away from Thika town. I couldn't wait to ignite my god-like bike, "Babe, let's go."
It was like a ride on a flying carpet as in Alladin. The bike was more swift and powerful than I had expected. Before an hour's end, we had long arrived home.
I met my neighbors leaving our compound with bliss as they fought over who will greet and receive my attention. From the gate post, all my shopping had not yet been offloaded and packed indoors as volunteers gave a hand.
"I always knew you are a lucky chap." The voice of one of my neighbors made me turn around as Fiona took Lynne away, welcoming her home. "Buy a drink, bro."
His name was Maingi. The farmer next to our plot, h hardly harvested any corn in his fields. I knew him far better than the rest. My pocket was still staffed with notes and my M-Pesa too was flooded. Buying a couple of drinks for these fellas won't make me broke either.
"Let me get home first, I will buy you all drinks." I created an uproar as everyone escorted me inside our shabby house. They all knew I was a multi-billionaire.
Later that night.
We had had our supper and gone off to bed. My mother had still not figured out where I got so much money. I didn't dare tell her. I had told her to go digital but that's not my problem, I love her analogy. I checked the time and it was minutes to 4 am, No one was up at that hour. But I had heard a creak.
I felt the door and saw it open, fear struck me as I looked at the money I had hidden well under the couch. There was around $210,000 in there. My CRE teacher taught from the Bible, Happy are the poor.
I couldn't rest without fear of being robbed, I sensed a third party in the house. With a trembling body, I searched silently over the house in all rooms except my mother's before concluding my fear. The burglar must be in mother's room, but I couldn't go in there at night without her permission. It was taboo.
I held a rod in my right hand as I stood facing my mother's door. I was preparing myself to attack when I heard someone come in from the living door. I almost screamed before I realized it was Lynn. "Lynn!" I confirmed as she laughed at my position. She said she walked out to have a pee and didn't want to wake me up, though she did apologize for freaking me, her laughter made me feel bad.
"I will sleep with you on the couch." She offered as we spoke in a whisper. Her hand was around my waist as I leaned and accepted her kiss. We rolled on the couch creating some creaking sound before falling to the floor with the craze. We had to be silent least anyone heard us.
"Will you do me a favor?" Lynn begged as her hand slid between my crotch, making me nut.
"What favor?"
"Help me with $200,000. Please, I need it for my mother." She looked into my eyes and spelled me. "Please, honey." She insisted till I said she can have it. This was all out of my plan. I had not put this in mind, but great men would always fall at the sight of beauty. I didn't even question the money she had saved on her M-Pesa either but made a promise as she slide and clutched her fingers on my...
I wanted to pull my long fat John Thomas out and drive it in her but she giggled and instead offered to do some stroking. Her index finger was on my lips as she shooshed me each time I throbbed. I was going to erupt from her hand job but someone yawned throwing us into confusion.
This is why I placed my priority on buying land and building a great mansion.
"Lynn?" Harley walked out of her room switching on the lights blinding us as we covered our eyes. Her sudden appearance had almost exposed us thanks to that yawn. I looked down at my pants and saw how untidy I was.
"Why are you up so early?" I questioned Harley who answered by saying the Fanta I bought yesterday had filled her bowels. Nothing more was said as Harley went out leaving us alone. We didn't dare again till Harley returned. I hoped she will go back to bed but instead, she joined our company and started her never-ending stories.
Everything about Taylor Jade changed our life. Now Harley created a huge budget for me, showing how I should use the money and blah blah blah. I didn't deny anything as I promised to pay her university and do the same for Fiona.
As for mother, we were going to buy that land around Mout Kenya and let her spend the rest of her life in peace. Her condition had pushed her to a corner and the doctor had advised we should give her joy. I knew mother loved the hillside so I googled and found the land on the mountain.
"I will prepare breakfast." Harley offered as our chat never died but got heated.
"When will I meet your parents?" I turned to Lynn who changed her expression and assured me that it will be soon.
I didn't insist or nag but held her close to me, wrapping my hand over her shoulders as I let her lean on me.
"You are my weakness."
A new day had dawned. From my $500,000, now I had just $10,000. I looked around and realized Lynn had taken 70% of the withdrawal. I had to do another withdrawal later in the day.
