Its been a week since I was discharged from the hospital and a lot has happened… like so much had happened.
Everyone had been careful and gentle with me and it was okay though. Mum said she wouldnt allow me to resume school now, till everything is sorted already and mostly because she didn’t want it to serve as a remembrance to what I went through.
I am glad that Daniel is almost done with his NECO exams and he said it was quite a challenge for him because he was bothered and coupled with him and Elle doing their investigations but he said he is fine now that he knows I am okay.
I did ask about dad but everyone told me not to bother to much about him and I should just rest enough and not cloud my head with so many things.
Elle went to school but I do have Becca to thank for staying back home with me and would stay till everyone came back home. I tried asking her if she knew something and sometimes it would look like she was holding back but s
After about three months in total some more evidence were presented and they were able to catch the remaining suspect who agreed there was a main boss but didn’t know him by face only what Org and Del told them about him they believed.Mabel, Angela and some of her school mates that were involved testified that Org told them to do so to her because the ‘big boss’ wanted her to be broken and to lack self-esteem.The security team in the estate testified and some of the new recruit said they saw one of their men give someone in a black hoody something before the person left and was threatened not to talk else he would be killed.He was scared for his life and kept quiet and would hardly come to work, so when he heard about the missing footage and a teenager being missing, he could hold himself and had to tell his boss, not caring if he would go for it. He had a sister of that age and cant imagine what her parents would be facing.A nurse h
We all watched as emotions played on the judge face but he tried his best to ignore it.It is still like a dream to me, that my dad could do such to me and all those affection he showed where just for me to trust him enough so he can carry out his wicked plans successfully without me or mum suspecting a thing.That is the sickest thing I have ever heard anyone say and especially when that anyone is your dad.I am sick to the stomach and cant even look at him and see him as my dad. I am heartbroken, I am sad, I am conflicted… there are so many emotions running in me and I cant do anything to stop them from flowing.How can a father do such to his child? His daughter? His own flesh and blood? He is sick, very sick and I am ashamed to call him my dad or some one that is related to me.At first it was him picking on me, calling me all sort of names, being rude to me and all then slowly he started to seem like he was changing and making me think
Everything has been so crazy these past months. With my dad wanting... no, trying to kill me and would have succeeded the third time if not for… Sighs I really don’t want to think about all that has been happening these past few months and so I don’t think too much and cause another depressing depression for myself again. The therapist I was supposed to see when I was little which whom I am having a weekly session told me not to overthink things too much so it doesn’t affect my daily life and so that I can concentrate on healing from what has happened. Although she said healing might be a bit difficult since I have started having flashes of what happened to me when I was little and it is causing some major trauma for me and it might or might not make me crazy that was why she recommended I shouldn’t think too much about it. So here I am in my room sitting on my bed in all-black attire, slouched over and playing with my fingers as I wai

7 years ago… The street was dark and the only ray of light that could be seen as the one coming from the streetlight that was many meters away from where I am presently at. I was walking in the middle of the road since there are no cars coming to and fro and it scared me because I am not a friend of really dark places what made it more creepy is not knowing what might be lurking in the dark, that was why I was walking to I don’t know where. As I walk further in, the darkness seems to be subsiding due to the street light that is way ahead of me. I could feel my mind begin to feel at peace because of the light I could see. A small house could be seen too and it looks so familiar… like I have been here before but I can't seem to pick a point what exactly or how I was able to know about this place. Walking further, my heart rate picked up and started ramming against my ribcage as this chilly feeling ran down my spine and the hair on my sk
9 years ago… “Good morning class” our teacher Ms. Maxwell greets us as she came into the classroom. We all stood up to greet her. “Good morning Ms. Maxwell” we all chorused and she smiled then told us we could sit down to which we complied. Ms. Maxwell is our English and Literature teacher. She is really nice and a kind-hearted person and also friendly… we all love her and her carry-along charisma. She is very pretty too and we all love how gentle she is with us. “Today we are going to be reading from our ‘Storytelling book’ so one after the other, you will go to the back of the class to grab your book from the shelf,” she told us, and we all nodded. She pointed to the row on the other side of the class and told them to stand up one after the other to go and fetch their book. It went on for some minutes till everyone had their book with them. “Okay, now open to page eight and…” she looked around the class befo
Present Day... "Daniella, Danielle, get downstairs, it's almost eight am" the banging on my bedroom door startled me a bit and it made mesit up in a flash. I was a breathing messandif my hair was not braided it would have been sticking over my face because of the sweat that had gathered on my body. I had that dream again, but why? Why is it coming? again... I was stilltrying to even mybreathing and calm my senses when I heard my older brother's voice again. "You guys should be quick and let's get to school in time, remember latecomers would be punished" with that said I heard footsteps fading away indicating that he hadleft. I put my face in my hand a let out deep breaths to calm my tornado nerves. I sat like in that position for some minutes and all the while kept wondering why I had those dreams again… it has been long…. really long a--and seeing it after all these times makes me f
“Is this a dessert?” I asked myself out loud because that is what this place is looking like at the moment. It was dry, sandy, and lack any form of civilization. There isn't even a road, to begin with, and it makes me wonder how I was able to find my way here. What made me glad was that it is dark and I do hope I can get to civilization before it gets dark. I began walking in a direction I am not familiar with but at least I am moving from the spot I was in. I had walked for some time when I started feeling thirsty already and the slightly hot sun did no good to keep me hydrated. I had no water with me and it made me cough a few times as I walked. The only thing I hope is to see someone… anyone who could offer me a drink of water first before asking where I am and how I could get out… if they would help me though. Then I saw a road upfront and a smile crept its way to my lips as I felt a bit of hope that someone was around here so it kept me f
