Her Ultimate Destroyer

_________________________________               RHODA Hearing Leona's name being called out as the best student, I wasn't surprised as I had expected it. What I didn't expect was her sudden fall when she got on the stage.  The college authorities called for the first aid team and she got rushed to the school's clinic."I guess our new Valedictorian is overexcited and must've passed out due to that." The chancellor began.It better be the reason. She can't fall sick all of a sudden.

I asked. "Yes, he's okay. You don't need to worry." He replied and paused for a minute. " How's this possible, Leona? I know you wouldn't go and do something that will hurt our family so what happened?" "I'm just as clueless, Ray. Although everything seems to be working against me now, I am certain about one thing." "Which is?" His brows raised curiously. "I'm not pregnant and I'll prove it tomorrow." "Great! I'm glad there's a way. Come let's go home."  "Which home?" Tasha has warned me not to go because my dad won't be happy. "Our h

                 ~LEONA~ "Sister Leo, please help me with my assignment." Vera walked into my home office with her workbook. "I'm busy Vee. We'll do that later." I replied without taking my focus off my computer. "No no no!" She protested stubbornly. I sighed. "Okay fine. I will have a look."  I took the book and looked through it. "This is simple, Vee." I looked up at the little blonde. "Here, I'll teach you." It was just simple algebra so I took some time and taught her. "Wow Leo, you teach so perfectly more than our teacher. Why didn't you become a teacher too?" She grinned at me happily. "But I'm already a teacher," I replied smilingly, looking at the youngest child among us. I love them all but I love her more. "Wow? Really? Where do you teach? And who do you teach?" She asked innocently. I chuckled. "I teach at home. Meaning, I'm your personal teach

            ~LEONA~ "Alright, if you say so. Let's go home so that I can treat your wound." "Home? I do not have a home, Raymond." "Stop spewing nonsense and let's go." He ordered. "No Ray. Mom sent me packing." I said silently. "What? How dare she." "Let it be Raymond and don't worry about me. I'll be just fine." "Come, I'll take you somewhere else if you don't want to go back home. You'll be fine there." "Where's that?" "You'll live with me." Yeah, Raymond doesn't live with us. He always comes to visit but doesn't sleep over but I still don't know where he has been staying. I nodded. "If it won't bother you." "Are you serious?" "I just don't want to be some sort of burden." "Can you listen to yourself?" He stared at me quietly. "How can my only sister be a burden on me?" He sounds offended. "I'm sorry." Staying with him will

              LEONA Three months later... "Am sorry Miss Leona but you can't work at this bar again. You're pregnant and you really need your rest otherwise you might lose your baby." The director at the bar said. But I really want to get rid of it. I have no intentions of keeping this baby so I'll be glad if I don't give birth to it. I had gone to get an abortion the day I woke up on a hospital bed. That was three months ago. My only aim was to get rid of it but it wasn't possible. I was told that I might die if I attempt to abort it or probably won't be able to give birth again... Tragic. Dying was not an option because I still got a family who's expecting a lot from me even though I got thrown out. Giving birth wasn't an option either but it is better than risking my life. So I decided to give birth to it but give it up for adoption soon after. Besides, I didn't have
