Mum! I can’t take this anymore; you can’t continue to
control my life, after all you are living yours. I want to be free to make decisions for
myself. Mum broke down in tears “Sonia I just want the best for you”, “I am
making the best in my own way mum” I replied, just give me a chance. Mum hugged
me and said “I want you to be happy” and I would be mum, I replied.
Many years after I realized I should have let mum teach me
what to do I was wrong, fun is not life. I thought I had the best friends in
the world but I was just hoping I guess. I am Sonia Andrew,29years old, a
pregnant non academic staff. I work at Federal Girls College and I am married
to Victor Andrew. Yes Victor is a cab driver, as rickety and wobbly his legs
are it was every body’s reason to laugh, but how could I even think of mocking?
A man that rescued me from all the neglects and rejections, he put a smile on
my face again even when I thought there was no one for me he chose me.
*sobbing* He is my joy!
Victor’s funny walking steps brings out the sparks of
cheerfulness in my eyes, in the next life victor would be my end and beginning.
Back in school I was not so popular but I wanted to be, so I
walked in the steps of “the big girls”. I started smoking, drinking and using
hard drugs because I wanted to be noticed. I formed my own clique “No business”
and yes! Finally I was noticed, so much happiness I thought! I had started
aborting, taking pills and I was getting sicker by the day. My friends kept
hailing me and I was encouraged, but when I was expelled from school because I
was pregnant for the 15th time, they all left me “FRIENDS”. I was
lonely nowhere to go mum had died 2 years ago because she had cancer and there
was never a dad! No relative, no friends, no body to care.
Then I met Victor… he was at the car park as busy as the
road was, he rushed me to the hospital at the time of my delivery, but sadly I
had a miscarriage. I wanted to go back to school after everything but there was
no money, Victor was interested in me, I noticed. But he wasn’t my type, he
advised me, fed me, gave me a roof over my head, gave me attention, he knew my story and he said "Sonia I want to give you a happy end" and indeed he gave me
laughter! He was an amazing guy, I was in love I couldn’t believe it!
Well here I am married to Victor carrying his baby, and we
happy together. After this baby is born am going back to school! I am Sonia Andrew
and this is my story…
