Diary of a single mother 8
“You shameless sl*t! How did your mother even train you??? Ahhhh… This is an abomination!”. Frank’s mother said.
“I’m sorry ma ๐ญ. It won’t happen again”. I pleaded with tears.
“Of course you should be sorry. Look at you, as small as you are, you can’t even keep your legs closed. What’s this world even turning into? A 19yrs old girl with no iota of shame. I weep for you”. She said with disgust.
“Mummy it’s okay na”. Frank said as he approached us.
“Shut up your dirty mouth. Thank God you will be returning to school next week. I don’t know why you allowed this little w*tch to corrupt you “. She fired back at Frank.
Frank never told me he would be going back to school so soon. I felt betrayed and used.
“Get out of my sight”. She ordered.
With tears in my eyes, I went back into my room.
Later that night, Frank sneaked into my room. I was so mad at him when I saw him.
“So you wanted to just sneak and travel back to school right? Do you realize I won’t be writing my Post UTME because of our baby? Do you realize that I’m pausing my whole life because of what we both did? …”
I kept on ranting nonstop with deep pain.
Frank didn’t say anything. He just kept on staring at me.
“So you are not going to say anything? You want me to keep on ranting like a mad woman right?”. I asked.
“I don’t know what to say to you. I feel you are just crazy. Didn’t I tell you to take care of the pregnancy. Don’t even provoke me Chinyere. Something other smart girls will quickly handle. Did I tell you I need a baby at this age??”. Frank fired back at me.
“Wow wow wow! So it’s my fault right? ๐ญ. So, I’m the foolish one”. I asked in tears.
“Na you sabi abeg. Your wahala is too much jor. I will be going back to school on Monday so you know. I no get body for your problem”. He said and stormed out of the room.
I burst into tears. I started regretting ever knowing him.
“God will judge you Frank. You will suffer nonstop ๐ญ”.
