Episode 39: What Goes Around Comes Around

There is every reason to trust a man in his forties, who drives a Jeep and has several copies of The Economist magazine on the back seat. Such a man if he speaks in a deep voice, is collected when picking a girl, and genuinely seems  interested in your welfare gives the impression he is self assured; not one to play boyhood games of the twenties. But that is not always the case like I found last night.

This man picked me around eleven. He was very sober and looked by his dressing as if he had worked till late in the night. We drove to a discreet  Sh.8,000 a night hotel slightly out of town which is a favorite of relatively older men having some fun on the side. At the hotel he asked if I was hungry, and I said I couldn't mind a snack. He paid for a room and I went to locate it as he ordered  fish. I ate the fish in the room while he undressed and took a shower. I have to admit he was handsome.

By default a man is supposed to pay a girl  before she delivers the service. But then you have to judge each man individually. Once you agree on the amount there is no need to demand money upfront from a man who  looks like he can definitely pay.And if you plan to give your all then the hope is the man will pay you extra. Of course if you are in downtown Nairobi you can take such gambles, no matter how the man looks.

So I gave myself to him . He seemed to enjoy and so did I and thus we tried several things in the hour I had agreed to spend with him. After we were done, I took a shower, dressed up and asked for my pay which was also to include taxi charges. He reached for his trouser, removed a 200 shilling note , and gave it to me. I took it thinking he was looking for more. But he just dropped his trouser back to the bed.

 " Thanks" he said.

" So..?"

" What?"

"My money?"

" That is the amount I always pay prostitutes" he said in a calm manner, and deep voice which I kind of liked.

I lost my temper. And for the first time in career  I slapped a client hard on the face. He touched his jaw, then  went to the door opened it and told me to get out. He spoke slowly and confidently as if nothing had happened. Though in a fighting spirit I was not blinded by anger. From his look I knew he would have smashed me with his powerful hands. So I stepped out, but made sure to do the prostitute thing which is to shame a man by screaming and calling him names. But perhaps having swindled again he knew by locking his door and ignoring me, I would be thrown out by the hotel staff, who in such places tend to side with the man. That's exactly what happened.I was escorted to the gates still trying to create a scene.

Today when I think about it I feel a little foolish. One for trusting the man and two for causing unnecessary drama. I know I got myself marked by the hotel staff and definitely other potential clients which is not good for business. And then what goes around comes around. Perhaps I deserved it, for only the other day did I steal from a man.

  1. I felt for you coz thats just bad,getting underpaid especially after you have given your all. But then again when you said you stole from a man the other day,it all went away, realized it is just Karma and well its a bitch. But that man really knew what he was doing,he could have fooled anyone. Such situations you just say, it has happened,there is nothing you can do about it,wont kill you, just be wise hope it never happens again.

  2. You "gave yourself to him?" Ati "Gave oyur all???" Comeon Sue, is that you talking kweli? I thought you were past that. You gave him your p*ssy, (though considering that you still have your p*ssy, more like you gave him sex), and he gave you sex back. You had your fun, and Kshs 200 to top up. Stop bitchin about it. Have fun, enjoy your life, and stop bitchin about such non issues.

  6. I kinda like reading your blog.. It re-affirms to me EVERYTIME that there is no joy/fun in picking a prostitute in Kenya

  7. I agree Johnny, a man always gets a raw deal with Kenyan pros; if u pay upfront, most gals are in a hurry to finish and leave . That guy had a gud time Coz he pretended that he'd pay later; though he paid with a slap! Its a crazy world. If a man feels shortchanged, what is the recourse?

  10. Hi Sue,

    I get the impression that you agreed beforehand to have one hour of fun and I assume that it's then that you negotiated a price? Right?

  12. Guess every dog has its day. Too bad you were on the receiving side. Balance that with what you stole from the other guy and you will see you got at least 1k

  16. Its very experience 4 a man to get some fucking on this part of the world. Imagine 8k for a room, may be 1500 for supper,maybe 5k for Sue then pay 2k for the cab 4 her yet she doesn't even spent the whole night! This can pay rent for a fly mistress whom u can Bonk most days of the month at your pace! Men pigeni hesabu, what do you think?

    Sue, First time to comment although I did read the blog for the first time a few months ago. Anyway first of good writing yours is a very interesting blog. Indeed in general it is so well-written that I find it hard to equate its quality with the few commercial sex workers that I have known. Anyway, kudos and keep up the good work.

  22. Sue dear, from now on just say that its your policy to receive cash immediately you enter the car. If he says no, get out and keep looking.

  23. As much as you'd like to kid yourself that you're creating a brand, these stories confirm that you're just a kawaida langa like all the rest. Stealing, drunkeness, shouting and causing a scene,... what next for you sue? when are you going to grow up? We, your 'fans' may get some temporary break from our dull lifes by reading this blog but you know what would happen if your next client is some weird sicko who slits your throat? we'd just move on to the next more shocking blog and forget about you. think about it.

  24. sue, you are one of the best literary minds to start a blog. u show a side of the streets kept hushed in a language palatable enough without stealing from the reality that is your life. your choices may b highly controversial, (clearly,from the many bluntly boorish statements) but ur captivating style of writing keeps us all hooked-regardless of motive. a published biography or memoir would be a solid career/retirement strategy for you...dont sell yourself short. SEX=SALES, CONTROVERSY=FAME GENIOUS=IMORTALITY ;)
