Early in the morning, my wife escorted me to the garden for I failed to carry water. She left me soon after starting working. She went earlier to attend the ceremony than I was leaving at 1pm.
After knocking off, I prepared lunch for myself. I cleansed a pot and fetched firewood then I started preparing nsima. It was so hard to prepare nsima because women are only specialists in preparing nsima. My friend got me while cooking that nsima and he just bought me biscuits and a bottle of cocacola before taking nsima, which I was cooking. I had him taking together the food I was preparing.
Late in the evening, while I was listening to the radio, I heard my wife my wife crying inside the house. “A bat was about to hit me while I was setting beddings,” she told me while trembling. I advised her not to fear a bat for it does not bite. Most of the people especially where I live, are so superstitious of bats being sent by other witchcrafts to make someone experience misfortune or got sick. When bats are flying inside the house, women are so shocked. They can even fail to get asleep inside the house especially if a man is away from home.
