OKUYIGGA LONA

THE SEARCH FOR LORNA

 Deyize Hamilitoni yali mbega nekolera jange.

Daisy Hamilton was a private detective.

 Yali wa myaka asaatu nga obwa mbega abumazeemu emyaka ebiiri.

She was thirty years old and had been a detective for the past two years.

 Buli kumakya yagenda nga mu yafesi okulinda amasimu oba yena anajja nga amwetaga omukozesa.

Every morning she went to her office to wait for phone calls or open the door to clients needing her services.

 Deyize yali tamanyiddwa nnyo naye lumu nalumu bamukubiiranga esimu nga balabye obulango bweyatenga nga mu mawulire.

Daisy wasn't very well known yet but occasionally people telephoned her from the advertisement she had put in the local newspaper.

 Lumu ku sawa taano ezokumakya, waliwo eyakonkona kuluji lwa yafesi ye.

One morning at about eleven o'clock someone knocked on her office door.

 Yali mukyala munenne, nga yesibye ediba mubulago.

It was a fat lady who wore a fur around her neck.

 “Nsanyuse okuluba. Tulirirako awo.” Deyize namwaniriza. “Nkuyambye entya?”

"Hello, can I help you?" Daisy asked the lady. "Please come and sit down."

 “Nyamba bambi, kino kimpitiriddeko

"Oh yes indeed! I need your help desperately.

Akawala kange ka Lona kambuzeeko. Simanyi kyakukola.”

Lorna, my little one has disappeared. I don't know what to do."

 Deyize yawa omukyala omunene ka kaawa nga bwalinda ebisingaawo.

Daisy offered the fat lady a cup of instant coffee and awaited the details.

 Omukyala omunene yekatila wansi natula, nateeka ekisawo kye ekyediba, ekyomunggalo ekimyufu kumeeza ya Deyize.

The fat lady sat down heavily and put her large red leather handbag on Daisy's desk.

 “Kaale no mbulira Mukyala…?”

"Please tell me everything - Mrs. ...?"

 Nze Mky. Ediwiina Hamuferi. Ntidde bagenda kunsaba sente. Ntidde, Lona bamuwambye!”

"Mrs. Edwina Humphries is my name. I am afraid they will ask me for money - I'm afraid Lorna has been kidnapped!"

“Kitalo nnyo Mky. Hamuferi. Mwami Hamuferis naye alowooza Lona bamuwambye?”

"That's terrible, Mrs. Humphries. Does Mr. Humphries, too, think Lorna has been kidnapped?"

 Mwami wange sibyaliko, oba Lona bamuwambye oba nedda tabiliiko.

"My husband is not interested if Lorna has been kidnapped or not!"

 “yiiyii, Mky. Hamuferi?! Mwami wo siye taata wa Lona yenyiini?”

"Really, Mrs. Humphries? But is your husband Lorna's real father?"

 “Simanyi kyotegeeza. Twamugula fembi.”

"I don't know what you mean. We bought Lorna together," replied Mrs. Humphries.

 “Mwamugula?? Mr. Hamuferi, ekyo okimanyi kyimenya mateeka.”

"You bought ............Mrs. Humphries, that's illegal, you know."

 “Nedda, Mubuyindi tekimenya mateeka.”

"No it isn't, not in India!"

 “Mwamugula Yindiya?”

"You bought Lorna in India?"

 “Iye! Era abaadde ankuuma!”

"Yes indeed! And she always keeps me great company, you know."

 Mky. Hamuferi yabikula ekisawo kye ekidenene ekya leza okujamu akatambala komungalo.

Mrs. Humphries opened her huge leather bag to pull out a handkerchief.

 Mukutya okwamanyi Deyizi yalaba ekintu ekyewalula okuvva munsawo.

With horror Daisy saw a wiggling creature come out of that bag.

 “Gwe Mky. Hamuferi jjawo ekintu ekyo mubwangu.” Deyizi Yewowogana.

"Mrs. Humphries - move that away immediately!" screamed Daisy.

 “Ekyi? Lona, oluvanyuma nkufunye! Obwedda wekwese munsavo mulalu gwe!”

"What? Oh Lorna - I've found you at last!" said Mrs. Humphries."You hid in my bag - you naughty girl!"

 “Mky. Hamuferi. Ono ye Lona?!”

"Mrs. Humphries. This is Lorna?"

 “Iyye, musoga gwa muntobazi za mu Bengali. Webale nnyo nnyo. Naye kilabika sikyetaaze buyambi bwo.”

"Yes, our Bengali swamp snake. Oh thank you my dear. No, I don't think I need your services any longer!"

 Deyizi yagala oluji nga Mky. Hamuferi afulumye nga bweyegamba mumutima ngi olulala akalango kalian okugamba. Ssi bisolo, ssi misotta.

As Daisy shut the door after Mrs. Humphries, she made a mental note to write in the advertisement: no animals, no snakes.
