At that i was home alone busy with home chores even though i was in pains. They arrived and saw me busy. As they came towards me, they saw clearly that i was beaten. They asked questions even though it was kinder hard answering them because i was scared to be beaten more.

They waited until the family arrived, my mother was then asked questions and she lied saying i couldn’t make it to school because i stole at the neighbors house and that’s how the neighbour gave me some punishment and she even hit me. The principal asked if she can be shown the neighbour but my mother lied more.

I knew as long as they leave, i will be beaten and that’s what happened. Weekend passed then Monday i had to go to school.

Every now and then, principal used to me call me to her office and asked just so many questions about me. The time i reached 13 years, it happened that my then father started sexually abusing me. I was abused physically, emotional and mentally by his wife but he added on top of that.

On some certain day coming back from school, thinking i was to be alone in the house until everyone else comes, as i arrived home. To my suprise baba’s car was outside and that was not usual. I entered he was not in the kitchen or dining room, went straight to my room and there he was on top of my bed undressed.

After opening the door and being welcomed by that, i immediately went mute thinking i was dreaming. He called me towards him but i just couldn’t regardless of the threats he started throwing at me. As i quickly got out of the room, in a second he rushed to pull me back inside. I tried calling/ screaming out for help but he quickly managed to close my mouth.

The most horrible and painful thing happened, done by the very same person i thought was my father. That which he did that day was so painful and i wished i could die. After taking his time he then told me to go clean myself and never dare to tell anyone or he will slaughter me alive. Went to clean the blood that came out.

That which happened that day started repeating itself until i reached 14 years. The last time he did it, after that i started being sick. I couldn’t understand what was happening with me, vomiting endlessly, feeling in some typer way but no one was there to assist in any way. One day i went to school, in the class i couldn’t concentrate as i had painful cramps until i fainted.

My class teacher and principal, took me to the hospital and that’s how they found out i was pregnant.
