Everyday Bakari, (the house boy in one big house) pours himself a glass of wine from the Bar. In order to cover his act, he adds water into the wine bottle to replace went he drank. His Boss became very suspicious and decided to buy Pastis (a French wine that changes color if you add water).
In his usual manner, Bakari drank from the wine and topped it up with water (to replace what he drank).
But unfortunately for him, immediately he added water the Pastis became milky. And when the Boss came back and noticed it, he knew he had nailed Bakari. Bakari also knew that he was in trouble and decided to stay put in the kitchen when his Boss came home.
The Boss told his wife and said he would call Bakari to come and acknowledge his evil deeds. "Bakari!", he called from the sitting room.
Bakari answered: "Yes, Boss".
"Who drank my Pastis?".
No answer.
The Boss asked again: still no answer.
Then the Boss went to the kitchen to meet him there: "Are you insane or what? Why when I call you, you say "yes boss" but when I ask you a question you don't answer me? " Bakari retorted that "when you are in the kitchen you don't understand anything at all, except your name" “Is that so?” asked the boss, "Okay, you stay beside Madam, while I’ll stay in the kitchen, and you will ask me a question ". Bakari accepted.
The Boss went in the kitchen and Bakari shouted: "Boss".
He answered: "Yes, Bakari".
"Who goes into the maids’ bedroom when the Madam is not there?"
No answer.
Bakari shouted again: "Boss, I say who made the maid pregnant?"
No answer.
Third time; "Boss, I say who made the maid pregnant?"
The Boss runs back from the kitchen shouting "Wonders will never cease! Bakari, It is true, when one is in the kitchen, one does not hear anything, except ones name!
