Let me distract you for a moment and tell you a short story on CHILD ABUSE
SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP!!
After it stopped raining, my mom and I went to one of her friend's house to help us out with some loan. She told me that she was going to take me to the city, I was to help a lady in housechores and the lady would sponsor my education. My mom and I were happy, mom's friend bought a new cloth for me to put on for the journey.
Her name was Laide, she was friendly, bought snacks for me and took care of me. Journey to the city took two days.
The house was quiet and securities were everywhere, my boss was also friendly, she showed me my room. My room was small and there was no foam to sleep on. A week after, I was maltreated by my boss. She flogged me on any little mistake I made. She called me out one night and took me to a room where different men, women and young girls like me were. Some were dancing to the music and some were smoking. She became friendly once again and she gave me a new cloth to wear and she also wore my makeup. Few minutes later, a heavy built man came into the small room we were, he licked his lips while looking at me, I felt disgusted. My boss whispered to his ears and he dropped some money on her palm. Then she left.
He pulled off his trousers and tried to rape me, I was only 8years old. I bit him and ran. I ran out of the building when I realised that I was SOLD to be a prostitute. I ran down the street trying to look for help but people thought that I was a disobedient small girl who was trying to run away from the house. A woman caught me and took me back to the men who were pursuing me. I was taken back to the house and I was beaten mercilessly. I was also locked up.
My dream was to be a chartered accountant, to be a graduate and make my family proud but I was sold and was also deprived of my right.
