I tried making my dad tea one afternoon after he came home randomly when I had company. gosh this is a thread. so this gyaldem was like let’s make white chocolate edibles at yours. and came over https://twitter.com/cindy40566361/status/1307448764332941313
no one was home. we made the chocolate and because we were clever, we had so much of it cause it tasted divine. we forgot hizo stuffs sio sukuma (those things are not kale)

anyway, it was too late. I just stood at the door and zilinishow (they showed me) to usher him into the house. Literally I opened the door and gestured for him to enter 
He looked at me and of course I looked into his eyes with my strawberry quencher stained eyes

Ik he knew something was up. Much later in my life I found out that he was used to partake and he loved it 
Anyway, he asked if there was lunch. I told him no and he said he’ll have tea and head back to work. I got to work

one cup of tea. 
. I don’t know what I was doing. I put an empty sufuria (cooking pan, the big one) on the cooker and preheated it. It made sense. Then I put water and a few sprinkles of milk.
I think I was even hyperventilating and I didn’t know it

I decided to make things less awkward. He was chilling at the dining table and I went over and struck conversation...
me: so do I put one tablespoon of sugar, or two teaspoons
dad: what?
me: is it usually (repeats question, this time with hand motion)

dad:
Maina, he kept staring at me! And I got frustrated and went into the kitchen ( pls remember my white water is on the gas) and got two teaspoons and one tablespoon. My aim was to have him pick which he wanted me to use for the sugar 
Idk... like I said

Anyway he got up and said “Sharon just stop”
I got so hurt. Like why isn’t he interacting with me and answering me. I wondered if he loved me, if it was because I wasn’t planned for as a child or whether it was because I’d just cut my hair. Which he was against

With tears in my eyes. I served him our tea. It was 3/4 the cup. And if you’re an African child you know that is taboo
I put my 3 spoons beside him so he could choose.
I went and sat on the rocking chair and I remember he left and this shawty woke up asking what had happened

Whole time alikuwa amedose (she had taken a nap)
Anyway. I always remember it and just wonder why he didn’t pick what I should have used to put for him sugar
