'' Good morning! Good morning!!! ''. That
sounded like my mother's voice. Madam
strict,it is not even 6:30 AM yet...and yet,my
mother is waking me up to get ready for
school. Who would want to get out of this large
and soft fluffy bed like mine,then go to school
to sit on a hard desk in school? But I must get
ready for daddy to take me to school, least he
gets late for work.
'' Get up now Angelina. Wake up sleepy
head,am done with breakfast, be fast and come
downstairs to eat,your dad is waiting for you ''.
She said.
'' Okay mum. But will you please shut the door
on your way out? ''. I said,yawning.
She laughed. '' Okay miss privacy ''. She said
and walked out,shutting the door from behind.
'' Oh God! ''. I said as I layed back on by bed
and swung my arms and legs in bed like I was
swimming.
Anyway, my name is Angelina Jordan. And this
is the story of my life. I am 26 years old now.
But at a very young age of 13 years old,the
experience and trouble I faced in life was more
like an adult. And I guess you all would love to
know what I mean. My dad was a rich doctor,
who accomplished his riches in life before
marrying my mum. And they gave birth to only
me.
My mum was a house wife and she took very
good care of dad and I. At the age of 14,my
body had developed so quick and no one
believed I was I was 13. I had already started
mensturating, my hips were broad,my breast
were heavy and I was tall with a dark skin
colour. As mummy had woken up,I
immediately took my bath and got to school. I
was quiet intelligent in school so I was always
promoted. My body had grown but my brains
had not. I was still childish. And I thought I
had it all in life. I couldn't ask for more. Life
had granted me everything... Loving parents,
beautiful me,beautiful school, beautiful
mansion, great friends and teachers. I was
cheerful, thinking all this until that same faithful
day,the atomic news hit me like a bomb. We
closed from school when my mother's
sister,aunty Okereke and her husband Uncle
Tom arrived in the school and I was called for
by my teachers.
I took my school bag and majestically walked
out of class thinking my dad had arrived to
pick me up. I got to the entrance, only to find
my aunt and uncle in black with gloomy faces.
Not that I was any surprised because aunty
Okereke is always frowning. I had never seen
her smile.
'' Where are my parents? Did they ask you to
pick me up? ''. I asked worried.
'' Oh my daughter Angelina! ''. Aunt Okereke
said in tears.
'' Tell her what has happened ''. My teacher
said.
I took a deep breath. '' Tell me what? ''.
'' Angelina, your parents have just died in a car
crush ''.
I totally froze at that moment. '' What?! ''.
'' Yes my child,they were on their way here to
pick you up when a VIP bus crossed their path
and crushed them,leading them to loose their
lives ''. She said,wiping her are.
At that moment, I didn't see or hear anything
again. When I opened my eyes,,I was back in
my bedroom. Wow! Was I dreaming? I asked
myself. I smiled and thought it was all a
dream. Then I realised I wa in my school
uniform. I was alarmed, and heard a knock on
my door.
'' Come in! ''. I shouted.
Danby entered. He was my eldest cousin.
Aunty Okereke's first son. He got closer and
sat besides me. I realised he was wearing
black. Then the memory came rushing back to
me.
'' Are you okay now? ''. He asked in a low tone.
'' Danny,don't tell !e that my parents are
dead,please ''. I cried.
'' I..I am..soo..so sorry Angy ''. He said in
tears.
I wept my heart out at that moment. I couldn't
believe I just turned into am orphan. But I
woke up that same day and my parents were
completely healthy and alive,and now,they are
dead. I'm left alone in the world now. My
parents used to teach me to always have faith
in God. So how come God did this to them?
And to me? From that very second,a part of me
loosed hope in God. A month after the
funeral,my father's house was now empty,quiet
and lonely. I was alone,weeping their death,it
seemed like a never ending torture to me.
A day after being alone, my ain't,uncle and my
father's lawyer arrived in the mansion with
some ddocuments in hand. They refused to be
offered water or anything but rather gave me a
news. A shocking news I wasn't expecting.
The lawyer got closer to me in a cunning
manner and held my shoulders.
'' Angelina, when your parents were alive, they
both went on an agreement that your aunt over
here,and your uncle would be your guardians
when they are no longer alive. And you will be
under their care with any other belongings of
your father,until you are 25 years of age. And
when you are 25,all your father's properties will
be handed over to you. You will then have your
freedom to do what you want ''.
'' What?! No way! That's impossible! ''. I said in
shock.
'' My turned shut up there! ''. Aunt Okereke
snapped angrily. '' Who are you to reject your
parents wishes? ''.
'' This can never be the wishes of my parents.
Aunty,I know my father never liked you. You
two never went eye to eye,so how come he left
me in your care? ''.
Suddenly, the expression on aunt Okereke's
face changed. That is when I suspected
that,there was something fishy going on.
'' And you this lawyer,how much have you being
paid to fordge this le? ''. I asked boldly.
'' What?! How can a s!all girl like you,insult me
like that? I am a respectable person,and
besides,this were your parent wishes! ''. He
replied.
'' Mr lawyer, please don't waste your time
explaining things to her,wether she likes it or
not,she will be in our hands now ''. Aunt
Okereke said evilly.
'' You may take your leave now lawyer,thanks
for everything ''. Uncle Tom accompanied him
to the gate.
'' I am not going to accept this fake wishes.....
I didn't finish my sentence when aunt Okereke
landed a hot slap on my face,making me fall
to the cold floor. I raised my head up,looking
at her in shock.
'' You spoilt brat! Do you think I am here to
pamper you? No way! I am now the owner of
this mansion and all your father's properties, so
now,you better respect me. Because from
today,I control your destiny,and because of
what your stupid mother,did to me many years
ago,I will make you suffer for that ''. She
spitted out with a monstrous face.
