Episode 3: Legacy Discontinued

 


Miskilu Aminat

This brings me to the question of why a tween should go through such trauma and agony. pause let’s rewind; You might be bewildered as to where the agony comes from just from one beating; well, I forgot to mention that a chain of beatings took place because I’m blessed with many uncles. The beating of my second uncle, Adam, was from sheer brutality because his punishment was not meted out of a twisted method of instilling religious doctrine but from stark wickedness; at first he started with heavy slaps across the face; then, whippings with a belt because I was chatting on Facebook when I was not supposed to. His claims for battering my body were implicitly supported by my Grandma and sundry and it even made sense to me too until he would still pound his fists into me for ridiculous and trivial things such as refusing to lend him my charger, complaining when my money go missing or compulsive sneezing from catarrh. Yes, it was that bad!

To that street that expects me to sustain my family’s tradition of early female pregnancy, get ready to get your mind blown.
