A recent WhatsApp conversation between a landlord and a tenant has ignited a variety of reactions across social media platforms. This intriguing exchange unfolded when the landlord decided to waive the rent charges following what he referred to as a ‘consultation’ with the tenant’s wife.
The conversation commenced with cordial greetings, setting a polite tone. The tenant, being transparent about his financial situation, openly acknowledged that he hadn’t yet paid the rent but assured the landlord that he would settle the dues soon.
The tenant stated, “Yes, landlord… I still remember I haven’t paid last week’s rent. We’ll be paid this weekend, so please bear with me. I apologize.”
To the tenant’s astonishment, the landlord responded with unexpected generosity, announcing that there was no need for him to pay the outstanding rent. However, the joy was short-lived as the landlord disclosed that this decision had been reached after a consultation with his wife, leaving the tenant puzzled about the reason behind this unexpected kindness.
“We’ve come to an understanding with your wife,” the landlord revealed.
In response, the tenant became increasingly agitated and demanded to know the nature of the agreement his wife had with the landlord, especially given that she wasn’t employed.
“How can you understand each other when you know very well she’s unemployed?” he furiously inquired.
The tenant, however, left the landlord even more bewildered by cryptically responding that their agreement was beyond comprehension, stating, “You wouldn’t understand.”
As news of this peculiar conversation spread across social media, it sparked a wide range of reactions from Kenyan netizens. Some suggested in jest that the tenant should consider remarrying, while others urged him to come to terms with his financial situation and allow his wife to continue her enigmatic consultations with the landlord.
