That Second Daddy (2)

I just closed my eyes and didn't open it because I was so angry to look in the face of anyone not even the doctor.

Second daddy had left that morning before I took ill and mummy was so nervous that she alarmed the family about my illness.

I didn't know what came over me when the doctor injected me, I screamed out and told my mum that I don't want to see second daddy again, his fingers are always in my bumbum.
The doctor and my mummy almost stayed glued for 10minutes in shock!
My mummy was shocked that she reflexly ran out of the room, she just kept screaming 'gbenro has killed me'.

The ordeal was serious, the family got really involved and mummy never allowed any one close to me again.

It was later discovered that I had malaria, If I wasn't ill, maybe I wouldn't have spoken out. Maybe, my mother wasn't sensitive enough.

Maybe, I should have screamed the very first time Mr second daddy did that to me. Maybe if my elder brother wasn't a log of wood sleeper, maybe he would have saved me.

I have the maybe's and most times I think about them everyday. I am now 27, but the memories are as fresh as ever.

I know the preventive measures I want to take with my children, I wouldn't allow any loophole at all. Second daddy is where he is, but I tell you, the distance that was created over 18years ago still lingers.

I would like to add to this story, making it very specific that both sexes suffer from this. Either male or female,it is important to keep a close eye on the kids.

Make the home very comfortable for the kids, make them speak, make them your friends and allow them know what abuse is so they can alert you when something wrong is going on.

We stand against Violence!

I would really appreciate your comments.

Monday Blues.... Letter to the Man in charge Excuse me sir, I hope your day is going on well even though mine isn't and the reason? I will certainly share with you. Let me ask you some questions, I don't need to be all care and friendly because this is a serious matter at hand. Do you drive? Does your car run on water or on Fuel? Please I need sincere answers sir!. It's pathetic that I have to stay on an unending queue to get fuel to run my car knowing that we have no special reserves to take us out on monday. Maybe car makers should start making three to four fuel tanks for some cars coming to some countries e.g Nigeria. I am so fed up of the way things are done in this country. They told us that we have Oil and we still suffer for what we have, are you sure those that discovered these things discovered well? I am sick and tired of speculations if we sincerely have, how come we suffer so much to own what we have? Who else is in ...
