Nilirejesha Urafiki , A Woman from Machakos Tells How Two Sisters Reconciled
For five years, Wanjiru and her sister had not spoken. What started as a small disagreement over family property had snowballed into years of silence, bitterness, and regret. Every holiday felt incomplete without her sister’s laugh. Every family photo was a painful reminder of distance.
Late one night as she stared at the moon over Machakos, Wanjiru realized that time alone wasn’t healing her forgiveness might. A friend whispered about a doctor who helped people find peace and mend broken relationships. Skeptical but hopeful, Wanjiru went.
When she arrived at the tranquil homestead, she was surprised that nobody demanded anything. She sat, spoke, and cried. The doctor listened, brewed calming herbs, and guided her through the emotional knots she had tied tight inside her. They talked about forgiveness not just as a word, but as a release.
Over several days, Wanjiru felt the burden in her chest loosen. She realized she still loved her sister maybe even more than before.
Back home in Machakos, she sent a simple message: “Tafadhali tuzungumze.” Within hours, her sister replied.
They met under the old mango tree where they used to play as children hugging, crying, and laughing at the same time.
Healing came not as forgetting the past, but as choosing love again.
