Chapter 1
At home chioma sat on a wooden old chair, looking so fragile the illusion experience she had the previous night gave her the pugnacious mind to go straight to the gate where okafor her father was , busy singing a native song .
Dash out wearing frown facelike someone who just fought with ten beheaded beast. Okafor, looking at her face pretend as nothing happened.
“ father!! She screamed
Am tired of been a dusted fool in this house’
Okafor looking at her, draw his chair a little closer with sweet tone ask her daughter ; what’s that my daughter , hope your night mere today isn’t terreble as usual?
Chioma looking at her dad burst into shout,
“Nightmere dad? How could you be such rediclous dad, do i have to even call you dad! Cause you dont deserve to be called my father”
Hymm!! Chioma of a little girl has grown to rain words on her father, thats disrespectful right? But he’s worth it.
“What a hell do you think your saying, what has come over you chioma, since you start mingling with that little brant you called friend you dont have respect anymore”
“Enough dad , why are you always a pet dog everyone associate in the day and at night you turn to green poisnous snake thats forbidden , do you wanna tell me that all that happened last night is a mere, please wake up and spare me dad!!
This madness is over chioma, what have come over you, since you won’t respect by instruction then you have to do it with action.
He quickly drag her with her left ear to a complex , helpless chioma was pleading her father to release his hand from her ears before he tears it apart.pushing her against the wall she screamed like someone who Is bitten by a snake. He turtured her thinking that’s gonna make her close her mouth but the more he beat the more she screamed.
Tears rolling down from her eyes down to her cheek ,
Who’s my father she asked, you will either answer this question or i leave for good before i enter my early grave, i have had alot from people how you molest my mom and that cost her disappearnce thinking you will change , but here you are, tranferring the same attitude to me.
