Erick’s phone gets stolen in Nairobi CBD at around 6:00 pm when he is coming from work. It happens quickly, as he squeezes through the throngs of people around the Kenya National Archives, his trousers suddenly feel lighter. His instinct is to feel his right pocket to confirm what he already knows, but before he can crane his neck to see who did the deed and shout, “Amenibia simu!” the music that was playing on his earbuds stops, and the thief is gone.
“Hiyo imeenda,” he hears a voice mummering, killing his spirit.
He removes his earbuds and puts them in their case. They feel incomplete, like a shirt without a collar. He slips them back in his left pocket and feels his back pocket to confirm that his money is still there. He uses it to get a boda-boda to his apartment in Ruaka, an upgrade from the Matatus he was used to after getting a promotion at work, from Data Analyst to Senior Data Analyst—A fancy title that means he crunches the numbers, so the company he works for can make informed decisions.
Erick arrives at the gate. He is lost in thought to notice the guard waving at him. After paying the boda-boda guy, he proceeds to the lifts, which take him to his two-bedroom apartment on the 7th floor. Another upgrade from the bedsitter he was living in. Erick sits on his couch and mourns his KES 100,000 Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra. He remembers that in there are his bank, M-Pesa, NSE wallet details, and life as he knows it, and he stirs, as if he has just gotten a boost of energy. He walks to his desk, opens his laptop, and notifies his bank, NSE agent, and Safaricom that he has been robbed, then spends the better part of his evening changing passwords to all his accounts.
He logs into his Samsung Find account to see if he can trace his phone, or at least block and erase his details, but it is unreachable. The last time it was on, it was around Githurai. He refreshes the page over and over again to the same information, until he finally succumbs to his fatigue and falls asleep.
The next day, Erick calls in sick because he is feeling sick, sick to his stomach that he lives in a country where someone can steal something another person has worked hard for and get away with it. He imagines the thief selling his phone for KES 20,000 and feels like throwing up in his mouth.
He would want to sit in his house and sulk all day, but the day ahead of him is long, and the errands he needs to run are even longer. His first stop is Central Police Station. A bored police officer listens to his story and writes in her book. An old, tattered book on its last pages, as if it’s weighed down by all the morbid stories in it. He is given an OB number and a police officer’s contact, whom he is supposed to get in touch with. Even as he takes these things, he knows they are a formality and nothing will be done; if something were being done, thieves would not roam freely in this country.
“Hawa ukitaka wakushughulikie lazima uwapatie kitu kidogo,” a slender guy in dreadlocks tells him after he leaves the help desk. After conversations, Erick gets to know that he is there because he sold his bicycle, and the buyer has refused to finish paying for it. “Ukitaka simu yako ipatikane, tafuta CID,” the guy gives him a CID contact before they part ways. He will probably never use it, he thinks. He has heard enough eerie stories about the CID, and the last thing he wants is to be in league with them.
Erick is back at the Samsung shop. He downgrades to the Samsung Galaxy A55 for KES 50,000. He was planning to use that money at the dentist, but his teeth will have to wait. He will continue enduring the pain that frequently stings his jaws for another month. After the Samsung shop, it’s the Safaricom shop, where he gets another SIM card with his original number, then it’s the bank, and the NSE agent offices where his accounts are reactivated and his life is back to normal, as if the nightmare had never happened. Erick doesn’t know that it is about to begin.
