” You are worthless!😬..
I am ashamed of you. No one can ever love you” those words never seem to clear off my head. Tears trickle down my cheeks, each time those words come up😪

I am cursed, maybe doomed to never have a good life. I feel empty, unloved and a seen as a misfit. All I seek for is to be cherished and to belong but fate has never been in my favour.

” Ruth! Will you bring your useless self here😠”
my mom shouted

I walk briskly towards the kitchen, my heart in my mouth as I take each step closer. I wonder what I did this time

” Ma, ” I answered coldly

” Hmm, I see you have grown wings in this house but I shall cut it up for you before you can fly. I told you to prepare moi moi, what is this?”😬

” It’s moi ” i received a resounding slap before I could complete the word

” Taste it, you good for nothing witch” she yelled while drawing my head roughly towards the pot…
I stumbled on the cooking gas narrowly escaped hitting my eyes on the cooker. Tears were flooding down my cheek as I made for the pot😥….
I brought out a wrap of moi moi and tasted it, it was tasteless. I forgot to add salt to it😭.

” You want to poison me ehn. You will finish that food up, you useless girl. You think I pluck money from trees. You evil child. That’s your meal for this week” she yelled out while stamping her foot on the floor.

Why won’t I forget to add salt?😭….. when my heart is occupied with the thought of not furthering my education because mother refused to pay for my waec registration fee. She said she can’t afford to train an agent of doom.

I have been called many unprintable names and treated less than a maid because I was the reason that her life is this way; I caused her the life she should be living in with Ken.

I didn’t ask for this to happen😥,…all I need is family and to be loved.

How long shall I pay for another man’s sin? How much do I have to pay to atone for his misdeeds?

How I wished fate gave choice before bringing me here?😭😭
