Girl dumps white man in supermarket for inability to pay bill

By EVELYN NJERU

An off the wall incident happened at a Nakumatt supermarket in Nairobi recently, when a white man who had brought his Kenyan girlfriend for shopping could not afford her bill prompting her to dump him on the spot. The young woman had been having a lot of fun and a tingling glow of satisfaction after her wishful thoughts of dating a white man came to pass.

The woman in question had allegedly been flaunting pictures of her new catch to her friends on twitter.

The girl on first sight smote Sebastian, a 21-year-old Canadian. Barely two days in the relationship, he had given her endearing pet names to delight her.

He had even offered to take her for lunch in one of the high class hotels on Mombasa Road.

However, they settled to meet along Lang’ata Road near the girl’s work station. Gladly, he suggested to her a shopping spree considering time was far much spent. Nakumatt was the most convenient place.

Her unsurpassed joy as they enthused about the shopping places around could not be hidden. Since they had not come for foodstuff, Sebastian suggested they try clothes and other related garments.

Every female would undoubtedly drool on the idea of shopping at luxurious shopping malls without spending their dime. The girl’s duty was to pick items and drop them on her trolley while Sebastian’s role — being a gentleman, was to push the trolley and pay.

Elegant

He suggested expensive lingerie with marching pants, thongs, elegant brassieres and some hot pair of stockings.

The bill swelled to approximately tens of thousands. As they took up the line to pay, eyes were on them as Sebastian would not stop tickling his girlfriend who in return smiled shyly. Dressed in white linen pair of pants and a blue sweater top making him look gaily and clean, made him get a lot of glances.

However, this moment was spoiled when the cashier’s sum after her arithmetic totalled up to a couple of thousand shillings. Sebastian easily dished out his wallet only to shout that he was ‘messed up’.

“Sh*t! Oh men! I left home my loaded wallet,” he yelled in English laced with a heavy Mexican accent.

Slithered

As he rummaged his hand from one pocket to another, leaving them dangling inside out. His ‘girlfriend’ slithered out leaving Sebastian with egg on his face.

Sebastian continued the search for non-existent money in his pockets as a long queue became stagnant with all eyes on him.

Noticing that his girl had vanished, a worried Sebastian resorted to shouting her name to the bewilderment of the onlookers. “These Nairobi girls are gold diggers, look at what she could have gotten away with from this white man”, lamented an elderly man.

 

“No, these white men want to lure our daughters with presents only to sleep with them.

He might be a poor lad pretending to be rich”, countered another with a scathing look towards distraught Sebastian who had been let off the hook by the supermarket management.
