STRANGER OF THE CITY

It was when the sun that shines all creatures has left the darkness, even the stars were not yet visible in the sky. A black cloud prevented the stars from being seen to illuminate the land. Thick darkness spread and the land became like it was covered with a black blanket. The darkness made people tell each other to pray so that God would bless them to see the Sun to the next day. At the same time, shouting reigned in the field of Independence Park in the city of Kingstone, it happened when many people who needed to be in the field were there. James, who was a famous singer and among those who were expected to join the stadium, had not yet arrived. James stayed at home; he sat up, immediately turned on the TV and turned it off, his day was not calm, his mind was filled with anger while his heart was beating very fast. He lacked peace and even comfort, his mind felt weighed down. James, the person that God gave him a green light to his life, so his life went straight without many obstacles. He decided to open the door and get out of his luxury house, surrounded by big lights that brought a bright light to the place. His house has 30 meters long and about 15 meters wide, most of its walls were filled with blue glass and the other part was painted to make the building interesting to look at, in front of it there was a green gate, hut roofed with green tin like the color of its roof. It is in the quiet area of New Kingstone, a street that has arranged riches houses. At that time the cars were honking their horns! Piiii! Everyone who heard the horn run to the gate quickly rushed to open it; because other people were returning to their homes, each one with his mangrove so that he could relax his mind, after a day full of hustle and bustle in the city. It is a street of heavy people and many of their houses seemed to be closed inside the fence, the interaction decreased and for some even cut off completely. Slowly, came out and started walking around his house, it was eight o'clock in the night while the lights were pleasing to his eyes and made him lose his vision, but suddenly, he was very upset! Then he fell down puuuu! And found himself walking around in an elegant city that he had never been to or heard of, there was not night like where he was; it was a daytime. The sun was lighting up the road. He thought he had come there as a ghost. It's like a blink of an eye or like someone caught in a dream. He moved so much that he felt lost, he sighed and ran here to there not knowing where he was going, he cried like a madman with tears streaming down his face calling out mamaaaaa! Mamaaaaa! Mamaaa! But no one responded, the people looked at him and saw him as mental. Although it was a beautiful city, but the way James came, it was impossible to make him happy with everything he saw. His mind was spinning and his heart was pounding as if it wanted to explode. Despite seeing beautiful buildings that were so bright that he closed his eyes, he only saw wonders for himself. "Am I captured? No! Or am I lost? No! Why was I here, now where is it?" James asked himself questions and answered while his heart was racing. James remembered Kingstone because it was there that he saw the Sun for the first 25 years ago. But that did not erase his origin in Western Tanzania where his father named Alex Kagoma was born and identified as the father of Mr. Yusuf Kagoma, from the waha community of Kigoma Ujiji Municipality. ************ Alex Kagoma entered the Caribbean islands after getting a scholarship and joined the University of Havana, Cuba, from Tanzania. After graduating, he worked in a country neighboring Cuba called Jamaica, where he worked in international companies and organizations as a chemist. By the power of God, he found a wife in the city named Maria and she bore him three sons, and James was the first child. As luck he became famous in the islands and other countries of North and South America through his gift of singing songs to glorify God; it was a blessing to the family. James, who dressed a blue t-shirt, blue jeans and blue rubbers on his legs, with his blue hat on his head, remembered that there was only a little time left for his friends to come to his house. There they planned to take each other and join other singers in the great celebration of the nation's independence which started in the afternoon.
