Igice cya 5: Urwibutso Rutera Gucika Intege
Hari ibintu umuntu yibwira ko azakira, akibeshya. Iyo minsi ikurikirana, akumva igihe cyivura byose. Ariko hari urukundo rutaribwa. Hari igikomere kidakira—aho wumva ko niba warigeze kuba icyuzuye, ubu urimo kunyeganyega nk’inkuta z’inzu zasenywe n’umutingito, zasigaye ariko zidafite igisenge.
Umunsi wakurikiyeho, nabyutse kare cyane. Umutima wanjye wari wuzuye Diane. Nta mpamvu, nta kintu gishya cyari cyabaye. Ariko hari igihe urukumbuzi rwisuka mu bwonko nk’umuyaga uhuhuta mu matwi yawe—rutaziguye, rutagira impamvu.
Nafashe imodoka, njya ahantu twakundaga kujyana: ahitwa Ku Gasongero ka Nyenyeri, agasozi gato kitegeye ikiyaga. Diane yarahakundaga cyane. Yari yarambwiye ati:
“Igihe cyose uzumva umwuka ari mubi, ujye uhaza. Uhumeke, utere intambwe eshatu, uzajya uhita umbona.”
Nagezeyo, ijuru risa n’iryaka urumuri rw’umucyo. Umuyaga mwinshi wahuhaga amarira amwe yari yaramenetse. Nicaye ku gitare, aho yicaye bwa nyuma turi kumwe. Mu mpapuro nari nitwaje, nasomaga ibaruwa y’ejobundi.
Ariko aho hantu hari ikintu gishya nabonye. Ku nkingi nto y’icyuma Cy’akabaraza k’inzu yo kuruhukiramo no kugamamo izuba cyangwa imvura, hari agasanduku gato kariho akantu kanditseho “Kubika ibyo utashoboye kuvuga”.
Narahagurutse ndagafungura. Kabagamo udupapuro duto twanditseho amagambo ya ba nyakwigendera, cyangwa ababuze urukundo rwabo rwapfuye. Nanjye nanditsemo interuro:
“Diane, njyewe Corneille, ndacyahumeka ariko ntariho. Wansize nuzuye icyanga cyawe, ariko noneho iyo nshatse guseka, numva meze nk’utabyemerewe.”
Nashakaga gusigayo n’iyo baruwa ya Diane, ariko sinabashije kubikora. Nta cyo nari niteze kurenza ayo magambo.
Igihe nari ngiye gutaha, telefone yanjye yarasonnye. Yari Neema. Sinari nzi impamvu ampamagaye—twavuganye rimwe gusa. Ariko ijwi rye ryari rifite ihumure. Ryaravuze, ridatinya, rituje, nk’ijwi rya Diane igihe yandirimbiraga uturirimbo two gusinzira ku mugoroba:
“Nari nzi ko ushobora kuba wagiye aho Diane yakundaga kujya. Narabyumvise mu ijwi ryawe ejo ubyivugira. Uramutse udafite ikibazo, nahaza tukaganira.”
Sinigeze nshidikanya. Ariko umutima wanjye wacitsemo kabiri. Igice kimwe cyavugaga kiti: “Shyira umutwe ku rutugu rwe, uceceke.” Ikindi cyaravugaga: “Utangiye kwibagirwa Diane?”
Naramubwiye ati: “Ndagutegereje.”
Neema yaraje, yicara hafi yanjye, duceceka iminota irenga icumi. Nta n’umwe wari ukeneye kuvuga. Hari amarira atagomba gusobanurwa. Hari ububabare budakeneye amagambo, ahubwo bukeneye ijwi rituje rikwereka ko utari wenyine.
Yarambwiye:
“Eric yansize atabivuze, ntabwo yanditse urwandiko. Ntabwo yigeze ansezera. Ariko nsanga yarampaye impano yo kutikanga ubuzima bushya.”
Naramurebye, nanga kumubeshya. Naramubwiye:
“Njye mbona Diane atarankundaga gusa. Mbona ahubwo yaranshungaga nk’uko akomeza kubikora. Aranshunga. Ampa amahirwe, ariko akankurikirana. Hari ubwo numva atanyemereye gutera intambwe ijya imbere.”
Yaramwenyuye buhoro, aravuga:
“Wenda Diane ntiyifuza ko uhagarara. Wenda yifuza ko utazibagirwa, ariko ukibuka ugana ahandi.”
Hari ukuntu amagambo ye yinjiraga nk’intego nshya. Sinigeze mfata ukuboko kwe, ariko umutima wanjye wumvaga umwegereye.
Igihe cyari kigeze ngo atahuke, ariko mbere yo kugenda, yarebye iruhande y’aho twicaye, asanga hari igitabo gito kimeze nk’ikihamaze igihe. Yagikozeho arakinyeganyeza, arakinshyikiriza. Cyari igitabo cy’indirimbo Diane yanditse—nari narakibuze imyaka ibiri.
Uko nasomaga izo ndirimbo, amagambo yazo nkayacumbikira mu mutwe, amarira yaranshutse aragwa. Ndavuga nti:
“Ntabwo nari nzi ko hari undi muntu ushobora kuzana Diane aho ndi.”
Neema yaramwenyuye, aravuga:
“Kugukunda ntabwo ari gukura Diane mu mutima wawe. Ni ukongera kumenya ko ushobora gutekereza ku buzima bufite isura y’ibyishimo, nubwo wabuze uwo wabwishimiyeho bwa mbere.”
Narumvaga nshaka kumusaba kuguma kumbera akayaga kajya gahumeka Diane. Ariko naracecetse. Umutima wanjye warwanaga n’urukumbuzi, ubwoba, n’icyizere gifite amaguru atinya gutera intambwe.
Igihe nari ndyamye uwo mugoroba, nasomye indirimbo ya 17 Diane yanditse. Yagiraga iti:
“Niba ejo uzumva umwuka ushyushye ku rutugu rwawe, menya ko ntari kure. Niba uzumva ijwi ry’amarira uri wenyine, menya ko nshaka ko uvuga. Niba uzagira uwo ukunda, ntegereje kuvuga ngo: ‘Yaje nk’undi, ariko afite igicucu cyawe.’”
Iryo joro sinasinziriye neza, ariko nabonye mu nzozi Diane ampobera, aravuga:
“Ndahari. Komeza ubabare, ariko ntukandame. Ndabikunda ukuntu utinyuka kongera gutekereza ku byishimo, nubwo byakugoye.”….
