Home sweet home

Kiara go to the bathroom and have a shower , your dinner will be here when you get back.

Yes Mom.

Kiara raced to the bathroom singing happily .

Mommy was in the kitchen preparing rice and chicken with lemonade Juice .

After Kiara finished bathing and got dressed ,she came running in the kitchen....

Mommy ! Mommy is dinner ready yet?

In a few Kiara just set the table.

Kiara set the table and sat down around the dinner table.

Mommy that food that you are preparing smells very yummy.

Mommy chuckled .

Mommy set down Kiara's food and juice in front of her.

Kiara had a bright smile on her face, her deep dimple popped, her blue eye glitterd in the sun.

Mommy sat down with her dinner too .

Let's hold hands and give god thanks for this lovely dinner that he gaved us.

Mom can I pray? How ahead darling.

Dear God thank you for this meal you have provided ...we are really glad for it, please provide for the the homeless and please heal the sick ....in Jesus name I pray amen., Uhm and God remember my dad please bless him and bring him here to look for me amen.

Ok hunny that was a lovely prayer.

Mommy can I ask you something?

Yes darling go ahead.

Mom why am I not going to school? I see all the kids my age going to school every morning and I am not going. I am a smart girl and I am sure I would do well at school.

Well darling I don't have the money to pay for your school fees and no money to buy your uniform.

So can't daddy help? Questioned Kiara

Sweetheart please eat your food before it gets cold.

No mom not until you tell me ! I feel like there is something that I should know about dad, Kiara snapped.

Ok, come and sit on my lap.

One day your dad left for work and I was here taking care of you as a little new born baby. I was wondering what took your dad so long to come home from work. In the night I finally heard a nocking on the door,it was your dad . Your dad showed up with a different lady , saying that he is going to live with her and she was his new girlfriend. He said he never want to see either me or you again . I tried begging him to stay but he left me crying on the door step.

After your dad had gone things got rough ...there is barely anything in the house to eat...we hardly can pay bills, etc.

Tears was coming at Kiara's eye , I knew this was a bad idea of telling you, said mom.

Mommy I am just thinking how dad could be so cruel to us.

Darling stop thinking about that and eat your dinner .

After you eat your dinner I will come and read you a bed time story.
