The Girl Who Texted Me Before She Died (IV)
โCome outside.โ
Mimi sasa? Nitoke nje? Saa saba usiku? Na naitwa na mtu hata sijui, aah noma hii ni kama haiwezi. If at all ananitaka saana, he has to come in together with the door ama atumie nguvu za giza. Juu sasa hata policeย utawaambiaaje uliitwa saa nane ukatoka?
My heart was pounding so loud design nilikua naiskia kwa maskio zangu. Nilisimama pale kwa dirisha nikichungulia ndo nisipate what I just had some hours earlier - shots
Guy wasnโt moving, not armed , just standing under the streetlight. Calm.
Like alikuwa tu sure nitatoka, ama alikua ananizubahisha ndo mtu aingie na backdoor? Nikachomoka haraka very fast kupiga surveillance huko pande ingine, I sawa nothing, and no signs of someone around.
Simu ikavibrate tena.
โYou left her that night.โ
That line hit the right nerve, I flashed back....
Three months ago.
Rainy evening.
Gate ya St. Maryโs.
Aisha alikuwa soaked, shaking, saying someone was following her.
I thought ni drama za watoto na relationship. Sikutaka kujipata kwa shida. So I left.
Another message came.
โShe waited for you.โ
Mikono zikawa baridiii, nikasonga tena kwa dirisha, the boom gari ikaekwa full-lights, then the man stepped forward. Sasa nilimuona vizuri. Tall in a black hoodie. Something felt familiar.
Then phone ikaring, this time I picked.
Silence. Then breathing, heavy but controlled.
Halafu sauti ikaingia.
โYou remember me now?โ
My stomach dropped.
That voice.
Niliisikia ile night kwa gate.
Alikuwa amesimama mbali, akituangalia.
I had ignored him too.
โAisha alisema ulikataa kumsikiza,โ he continued calmly.
โShe said teachers are supposed to protect students.โ
Nilishindwa kusema kitu. Nikarudi kukaa on my bed.
He laughed softly.
โRelax. Sheโs still alive.โ
Roho Bado ilikua inagonga Very loud and fast.
Alive?
โLakini saa inasonga,โ he added.
Click.
Call ended.
Simu ikavibrate tena.
Location shared.
Abandoned warehouse, Industrial Area.
โYou have one hour.โ
Nilirudi kwa dirisha.
The man was already getting into the car.
Engine ikanguruma.
Before he drove off, message ya mwisho ikaingia,
โCome alone.โ

The Girl Who Texted Me Before She Died (lll)
My finger hovered over the play button. For a second I thought about deleting everything. Blocking the number. Sleeping. Pretending none of this was happening. But I pressed play. The screen was black.Then I heard it.
Rain.
Heavy rain hitting iron sheets. My heart skipped. I knew that sound.The video cleared slowly. St. Maryโs gate. Three months ago. Rainy evening. And there she was.
Aisha.
Standing outside the gate. Drenched. Shivering. Looking desperate. Then the camera shifted slightly. And I saw myself. Clear as day. Holding my car keys. She was talking to me. Begging. Even without sound, I could read her lips.
โPleaseโฆ help me.โ
And me?
I shook my head. Turned. Got into my car and drove away. The video ended.
12 seconds.
Just 12 seconds.
But they hit harder than anything. I sat there frozen. Because now I remembered. That evening, she had stopped me and said someone was following her.
I thought it was drama or campus relationship nonsense andย I didnโt want problems so I left.
But something felt wrong.
That videoโฆ
It wasnโt recorded from outside the gate. The angle was from inside the compound. Meaning someone was already watching. Waiting.
My phone vibrated.
โNow you remember.โ
My throat went dry.
I typed:
โWhat do you want?โ
I replayed it.
This time I wasnโt looking at her. I was looking at everything else.
Background, shadows, reflections.
And then I saw it. In the reflection of my car windowโฆ
There was someone standing behind me.
Tall. Still. Watching us. I hadnโt been alone.
Message came in.
โYou left her with me.โ
My chest tightened.
Left her with him?
Another vibration.
A voice note. 7 seconds.
I didn't hesitate, I pressed play.
It was her, crying. Barely breathing.
โTeacherโฆ heโs here.โ
Then I heard a door creak open.
Slow. Heavy footsteps. Then a manโs voice.
Calm and controlled.
โI told you he would remember.โ
The recording stopped.
My phone vibrated again.
Live location shared, I opened it.
My blood turned cold.
It was pinned right outside my house.
Outside.
My house.
Before I could even process itโฆ Headlights flashed through my window.
I slowly stood up and walked toward the curtain. Roho ilikua unadunda kama home system imeongezwa base speakers kama sita hivi.
And there it was, a black German machine whose engine was running. Parked under the streetlight and a man standing beside it. Looking directly at my window.
My phone vibrated again.
โCome outside.โ
TBC
If it were youโฆ
Would you step out?
Or lock the door and call the police?
