  • Mummy, i didn’t Run Away: The Unwanted Child   Chapter 16: Standing on the Street

    The first time we all went out, we didn’t go alone. That was when I finally understood the true purpose of the men living in the house, the ones we had wondered about when we first arrived. I had asked myself back then whether they were meant to guard us or protect us. Now, the chilling answer was clear. They were our wardens, our shadows, sent to make sure none of us ever found a way to slip away.Two luxurious buses were packed with us that night, driving us out past the city lights into a secluded, unfamiliar area. When we arrived, the reality of it hit me like a physical blow. We were told to line up along the dark, desolate streets. We stood there shoulder to shoulder like goods displayed on a shelf, products meant to be bought, used, and discarded.Because of my background, because I had never known anything about this world, Madam Veronica had taken special time to prepare me. She had handed me the high heels that now dug painfully into my aching feet. She had forced me into th

  • Mummy, i didn’t Run Away: The Unwanted Child   Chapter 15: The Trap in the Mansion

    She took us inside and showed us to two large rooms. Each room was packed with nearly ten bunk beds, lined up row after row. She told us to make ourselves comfortable, but none of us were smiling. None of us were happy. We already knew what was waiting for us. We knew something dark was coming.After we had freshened up, she brought us food, and we ate in heavy silence. The comfort of a real house didn’t make us happy. It didn’t excite us at all. Even though the Italian camp had been crowded, noisy, and chaotic, and even though we spent only three days there, we still preferred it over where we were now. That camp had given us peace. It had given us a restless kind of safety, far away from the angry, predatory eyes of Madam Veronica.In her house, every full step she took made our hearts leap. Every time her gaze landed on someone with her eyes wide open, it felt like our hearts were about to jump straight out of our mouths. Not a single person smiled. We hardly spoke to one another a

  • Mummy, i didn’t Run Away: The Unwanted Child   Chapter 14: The Sea and the Sinking

    After three long months of waiting, the day we had prayed for—and dreaded—finally arrived, and a boat appeared. We were all allowed to see it, but nobody moved immediately. The agents didn’t just push us onto the water; they spent hours fixing it, checking every inch to make sure it was structurally sound.Then came the weather checks. They studied the forecasts over and over, waiting for the wind to calm and the sea to clear. Even after the boat was repaired, we had to stay another two whole months just to make sure the boat was in good condition and to make sure the weather was safe. By then, nobody complained anymore. Merely seeing the boat gave us hope, so those extra months didn’t even feel like anything.All of us stayed restless, watching the sea from a distance whenever we were allowed outside. Every few minutes someone would ask if the weather had become better. Every little movement from the agents made our hearts race because we thought they were finally about to call us.W

  • Mummy, i didn’t Run Away: The Unwanted Child   Chapter 13: The Secret

    Two months bled into the waiting silence of Libya. There was still no sign of the boats we had been promised, but Madam Veronica and the other agents were constantly on the move, making calls, arguing over phones, and scrambling to arrange the rubber boats. The atmosphere inside the compound was thick with anxiety, everyone counting down the days and praying for a way out.Every morning we woke up hoping someone would shout that a boat had finally arrived. Whenever we heard footsteps outside or a vehicle stop near the compound, all of us would rush toward the door, thinking maybe this was finally the day we would leave. But the footsteps would pass, the vehicles would drive away, and another day would come to an end. Days slowly turned into weeks, and before we even realized it, two whole months had gone by. We stopped asking when we would leave because nobody ever gave us a straight answer.Then, the secret came out.We discovered that one of the girls who had traveled with us from L

  • Mummy, i didn’t Run Away: The Unwanted Child   Chapter 12: False Prophet

    Mummy, there was something else Rose said that made our mouths drop open so wide we couldn’t even close them.She told us about a particular pastor of a very big, well-known church in Nigeria who brought a group of women to that very place. He had lied to them, claiming they were traveling to Libya for a special women’s church convention and outreach program to preach to people. There were about fifteen women in total that this pastor brought along.The moment they arrived, instead of a conference hall or a hotel, he locked them inside a massive warehouse and forced them straight into prostitution.Do you know the craziest part? While Rose was telling us this, she spoke in a frantic whisper. We were all huddled together, bending low and straining our ears just to catch every word.Rose explained that when the women first arrived, they didn’t understand what was going on. When they were locked inside the building, they thought it was just a temporary arrangement. They assumed they woul

  • Mummy, i didn’t Run Away: The Unwanted Child   Chapter 11: Trapped in Libya

    We tried to blend in with the other girls in the compound. As we talked to them, some mentioned they had been stuck there for two years, some for a year, and others for six months, with no sign of a boat in sight.I ended up getting very close to a particular plump girl named Rose. She also had her own madam, though her agent wasn’t nearly as strict as ours. As we sat together in the gloom, Rose started telling me the horrific things they had all been through over the months.She told me about a failed attempt she was part of just a few weeks prior. When a boat finally arrived, agents rushed to clear people, and everyone panicked and crammed themselves inside. The boats are always dangerously overcrowded because everyone is desperate to escape, no one wants to stay in that hellhole for a single day longer. Sometimes, it’s so packed that you have to sit on someone else’s lap just to fit.As soon as their boat set sail, it developed mechanical issues and started sinking. The only luck t
