😂 Small boys depressed as big boys enters the city
MASVINGO — The arrival of Tourism Week has reportedly caused an unexpected crisis in the city, with some of the city’s “small boys” allegedly developing serious levels of anxiety after the arrival of what they have described as “big boys.”
With hotels filling up, nightlife expected to be buzzing and visitors arriving from different parts of the country, some young men have reportedly been spending more time checking their girlfriends’ locations than checking their bank balances.
Jayden, a 21-year-old male student, said the situation had become unbearable.
“Hapana yekutamba ndozviripo. I hope wangu anofarira anofarira zvekuenda out haatorwi, ndotori ne stress. Apa anosigara achimboti aenda kwasekuru vake kuHarare” 😂
Simba, who works during the day, said having a job had done little to calm his nerves.
“Although ndichienda kubasa, zvoto zvine mazera izvi. Pakatoipa.
For Ndumiso, a student, Tourism Week has brought back painful memories.
“I don't trust my girlfriend's friend. Ndakambobata message achirongera bby rangu rimwe dhara.” 😭
💃 Meanwhile, the girls have spoken
While the small boys are reportedly suffering from sleepless nights, some ladies in the city appear to have a completely different view of the situation.
Tadiwa was brutally honest:
“Vakomana vacho hanty vanomboonererwa here, Hapana pandichasiya mbinga ichienda.” 😂
Praise, meanwhile, said some relationships were already operating under a complicated set of rules.
“Wangu hanty anosingocheater here? Ndichingonyarara. He should not worry ndikaitawo zvaanosiita.” 😭
And Marble appeared to have the most diplomatic approach of them all:
“Honestly, some of us, if the opportunity comes for something serious, then yeah. I'm not for games.”
As Tourism Week gathers momentum, relationship experts have advised small boys to remain calm, trust their partners and, most importantly, avoid checking WhatsApp last-seen statuses every five minutes.
The biggest fear, however, remains unanswered:
Will the small boys survive Tourism Week, or will some relationships check out before the tourists do? 😂
