Warning: Some uncomfortable scenes ahead please read with caution. "Momsi, get up". Not now, Jotham's fond of doing this. Waking up someone sleeping when he's tired of sleeping.
"Moms-"
"Am up, what's the problem?"
"Aunt Les is here to see you, and I've been waking you but don't want you to"he said pouting.
"It's but you don't want to"I corrected, Jotham's fond of turning his sentences upside down. Les is here, why? just then I remembered, Charm Fest is starting today.
" Wakey wakey sleeping beauty,its time to rise and get your butt up" speaking of the devil she's here.
She sat at the edge of my bed and said"let's get going, if not we're gonna be late, so I packed your stuff while you were sleeping and we are so ready"
" How do you know am going?"I asked raising my brows.
"I just know, you can't wait to get laid and make me a proud aunt"she said
"Why do you want to laid my mommy"Jotham asked. Gawd my son's still here and she's speaking foul
"Uhmm, why don't we go get squeaky clean, bath time" I said trying to get his mind off the question.
"I've taken my bath"he said
"How?"I asked
"I've washed him Vee, don't get so apprehensive, now why don't you take your bath,so we can get moving.
"Am not going"I said, though its a lie. I want to go but I need her to convince me.
"Come on Vee, I told you about this and its benefits, just give this a chance you're not gonna regret it okay, please"she said giving me a puppy face, that doesn't work on me but am gonna pretend it does.
"Okay"I said. I went to the bathroom, brushed my teeth and took my bath. Haaa.. I smelt nice,but looked wrecked I thought, as I stared at myself in the mirror. There were scars on my arms, thighs and back. I remembered how I got them.
"I can't do this, its too much, please am sorry"I cried tears spilling out of my eyes.
"You will, you bitch, you can't just eat my food,grow up in my house and expect freedom. You can't tarnish my reputation, so go ahead do it. My dad said.
"Go in"he said. I stared at the room in front of me,I heard laughter of men inside, surely he won't force me to do this I thought but my thoughts were interrupted when a calloused hand gripped my arms and started pulling me towards the room.
"Dad no please, don't do this"I sobbed, but he pulled me ahead.
"No, don't,please" I cried but it was as though his ears were shut. And before I knew it I was thrown inside the room and it was shut from out and I heard him say"when you're through, clean up yourself and get out, and this time don't mess up.
Since when I was 10 my dad gave me to demons in exchange for powers,I always thought he loved me but no since after my mum died,he changed and would do anything to get what he wants even if it means giving me to demons.
"Come closer girl"a voice said. I knew,it was Armog the demon I was given to.
I couldn't run I was locked, there was no use in struggling,so I just went closer to it. It was ugly, with a reddish brown hair and large eyes which were black with evil. It was hideous with fangs and a hairy like body that has warts on it. It sniffed me and smiled showing a black tongue with a hairy like look.
"Am sure you know what you're here for so be a good girl"it said and gripping me by the neck it plunged it fangs into me and it started sucking my blood making me feel weaker by the seconds and it later stopped.by then I was dizzy. It then tied me up to a pillar, stripping me naked,it then took a whip with thorns on it. I got ready when the first lash touched my skin. It whipped me hard all the while smiling,he thrived on pain and terror. I felt my blood flowing away, I was dying. And then all went black. With thoughts of dying on my mind.
"Are you done?, am waiting".Les said calling me out of my reverie.
"Am coming". I called back.
I went to my closet, throwing something on, surely something covering my scars.
"Les, please call Rose and ask her if she can make it here,so that she can babysit Jotham for me, Grandma phoned me saying she flew out".
"Ok"Les said.
I walked out from the closet and Les told me Rose was coming. Okay. Rose was adopted by my dad, after her mum died. Her mum was his mistress and he felt obligated to care for her. He never mistreated her,at first I was pissed and hated her,but she's a sweet girl,so we just became close.
"So were are my things?"I asked Les
" In the car,so let's go you've wasted enough time already"she said.
"Ok,but what about-
"Its safe Vee, no one knows except me and you and the so called Creed, and surely I won't steal it and neither will they betray you so holla, let's get moving".
I told Les about the map and the fact that its in my house,so I trust her I guess.
"Goodbye Jotham, Rose will be here to take care of you,so behave yourself".
Jotham who was standing at the staircase looked at me and said
"Okay, but come back early with lots of goodies and milkies and anything sweety". So me and Les went out to her car and we got in, sitting down I said
"That was easy enough" I said
"Yeah, I thought he would throw a tantrum"Les said giving a small laugh .
Driving out we met Rose driving in, so we stopped to give a little talk. I gave her some instructions.
"Please take good care of Jotham, and everything else okay, if you need something just ask, thanks a lot. With that we drove out, I felt giddy and kinda scared leaving Jotham alone but well I need to do this.
