An Empire of Softness
I remember the exact afternoon my bank balance crossed the one million Kenyan Shillings mark.
I was sitting on my sofa. It was a Thursday, I think. My phone buzzed on the coffee table. A bank notification. I picked it up, expecting it to be a tiny payment from a small gig, or maybe a deduction for a bank fee. I unlocked the screen.
Available Balance: KES 1,500,003.72
