When I clock fifteen, I started developing boobs and my shape started coming out. My uncle noticed this and started making advances to me but I refused and he said he won't send me back to school if I don't give him a chance, I was shocked that my uncle could be so cruel but he was nice to us when our parents were alive. I made up my mind to leave the house leaving my brother behind, that was a difficult decision to make and prayed earnestly for him.
I moved in with a friend on a condition that i will be the one doing the house chores, let me just say i must be her maid. I got a job as a cleaner in a supermarket but the salary is just 8,000 naira per month, i had no choice but to take it. I should have stayed with my uncle but i cherish my virginity and will not lose it to just anyone because it's a precious gift from God, i don't care if i suffer. The righteous will never be forsaken, i had no choice but to depend on the word of God even though it looked stupid and sometimes i looked like a fool but i never stopped believing not until i met Jude.
I met him at the club where i worked at night, my friend advised me to sleep with men for money because she believed it's the quickest and best way to make ends meet and rescue my brother. Jude ordered drink for everyone in the club and was interested in me, I gave him my phone number and we started going out. I was happy that I found a rich man who will put an end to my struggle not knowing that I was only deceiving myself. He rented an apartment for me and I moved out of my friend's place, he gave me a job in his company when I insisted that I must work and he also bought me a car.
We dated for five months not until I heard that he was getting married, I confronted him and he gave me a rather shocking response. He said I'm just a whore who was needy, he needed sex and he was willing to purchase it. A successful woman is the one who sees a man with money as a bonus not a ladder to upgrade, he also said he can never get married to someone like me. His fiance was a fashion designer who owns a clothing line.
Was I whore? I couldn't get this out of my mind. His wife terminated my appointment and sent me out of the house, she believed I was still dating her husband. Sex before marriage is a sin, fornication and I know I'm supposed to keep my virginity till wedding night but can't God just forgive me? After asking for forgiveness but some people are living in sin and their lives are getting better everyday and why is my case so different? It led to dementia and I was admitted to a psychiatric hospital where i spent six months. I have no place to go because my friend has travelled and won't be back soon and no one is ready to help me either, I should have just allowed my uncle to have sex with me and I would've gone back to school.
I was walking carelessly on the street when a car packed beside me and a lady called me, I looked towards her direction and behold it was my class teacher when I was in primary five but I was surprised she could recognise me so easily may be it was God's intervention. I came to your uncle's house when you stopped coming to school and I also learned that you've lost your parents to a car accident, I'm really sorry for your loss, she said. I told her I have no place to go and she took me to her house, I told her everything I've been through and she decided to help me. She sent me back to school and I was very happy, she took my brother away from my uncle and enrolled him back at school. I finished my secondary education and I got a scholarship to study cinematography in the U.S
I had been singing before I travelled to further my education, I released my debut single 'Happy Ending' and collaborated with a famous musician, everyone loved my music. I was now sponsoring myself but God used Miss Johnson to save my life and destiny. I met a man called Alex, he's a serial entrepreneur and we'll be getting married soon.
