Chapter 2 - Born by mistake

All my life I have always regretted being brought to this world, being born to a world where I nevér received love from my own family members not to talk of my mother. I grew up to hearing words like " you are a bastard, evil child, witch, born by mistake and so many other hurtful words from my own family members.

My name is Rosie and I didn't have a surname my family members refuse to share the same surname as me saying it will bring them bad luck that I shouldn't go outside and call my name with their surname I never really knew where all this hate came from, later I got to know that my mother didn't name me its was the mid wife who named me because non of my family members decided to name an abominable child well that was was they call me "An abominable child "

I heard from them that while I was in my mum womb she actually tried a countless amount of times to abort me I refused to be aborted, my mum had gone to the hospital and done all the procedures for abortion but after some days she still felt a baby kicking in her womb and was shocked and from that day she started calling me "abominable child" so as soon as she gave birth to me she dropped me with her mother and went away and got married and begat another family of her own.

Sh comes to the house sometimes but not to see me I will her and like say "Goo day Ma" and she will just acts like am invisible and snub me I never really understand why she hated me so much.

In the house I was maltreated they treated me like rag and like a house help i never eat good food i was always eating left overs and unhealthy food. Any little mistake I made I was beaten like an animal and they won't stop i will scream and scream but no one will help everyone will be laughing at me my grandma, cousins, aunties and uncle they will all be saying keep beating her and they will all take turns in beating me till I passed out they will leave me and say "if you like die since you were born by mistake". I always go to bed with bruises all over my body and i found it very hard to sleep and even why I sleep I always had nightmares, life was so unfair to me.
