The story is about a little girl who grew up hiding each and every pain in her life that is caused by her family.
My name is Nobahle k girl who grew up in her mother’s side of the family with many siblings,uncles,aunts and grandmother.
It was early in the morning when we were all preparing to go to school me and my 5 cousins there were bathing with hot water as for me I was using cold water. They were all treated very good cause their parents had good jobs and my mother was struggling but she was able to buy food and everything I need for school.
One day I woke up in the middle of the night..I heard some noise outside,I turned on the light because I was so terrified and it’s turned out to be my uncle.He was a bit drunk he tripped in into a paint can. I went outside trying to help him because I saw him laying in the floor when I looked out the window.
I went to him and helped him to bed because If I did not do it..they will hit me in the morning.my uncle never liked me ever since I was a child he use to say am so skinny I won’t reach the age of 18. I was so use to that I was the joke in family, I cooked everyday while my cousins were playing with their friends.
One day school were closed my cousins were visiting their relatives and I was left alone with my elders.my uncle started accusing me of stealing money.i tried to defend myself but it’s was too late the leather belt was waiting for me.he started by slapping than used the belt it was so painful that I was not able to move I even urinated myself. My grandma helped to bed that day I didn’t even bother to eat.
The following day I tried to walk even though it was hard I had to.i went to sleep again and grandmother went to our relatives funeral so she will go for 3 days.thats where my uncle started raping me while I was young and innocent in pain after he beaten almost to death. When my grandmother came back everything was back to normal for and I had pretend that am OK because he said he would kill if I tell a soul.
days went by and almost everyday he come to my room rape me and go back to his normal life. He looked happy with his family while I was dying inside.i hated everything about him I even hated hid kids. I was 15 that time and I got mi periods and I told grandma.she helped with everything I needed to know and she decided to let sleep with her up until I’ve finished my periods after that went back to sleep at my mother’s room.
Only two days I was free and happy that my uncle did not come to my room.day 3 he came and told me that I was old enough to do everything that he shows me and tell me..he took out his phone and showed me a sex video and told to do everything they do I tried but i was hard,painful and I was crying at the Sametime. He continued with up until I get My second period and stop got back to his wife up until his wife left him..she suspected that he was cheating she did not know he was raping an innocent child
