Mipango yote ya sherehe ya kuzaliwa kwa baba yangu ilikuwa imepangwa ikapangika.Ilikuwa siku ya tatu ya juma. Baba alikuwa akikamilisha miaka thelathini na tisa. Yeye hakuwa amekula chumvi nyingi kama alivyokuwa babaye Meishisana.

Mapochopocho ya vyakula mbalimbali yalikuwa yakinukia mezani na hata mekoni. Vyakula kama vile pilau, biriani , maandazi na vibanzi vilivutia sana machoni pa wageni watano waalikwa. Nilishangaa nilipomwona Bwana Kauleni akidondokwa na mate kwa sababu ya kuitamani keki yenyewe. Watu wengine ambao sikuwatambua kwa majina yao, walikuwa wameketi kitako sebuleni huku wamejipamba kweli kweli. Bila shaka wote walijawa na tabasamu nyusoni pao. Keki yenyewe ilikuwa tamu kama halua.
