Yes! I was pregnant, but that wasn’t the only problem with me as I wasn’t just pregnant, I was infected with HIV and vesicovagina fistula. The doctor said I was lucky my womb wasn’t pierced through the force of the rape as I was close to loosing my womb.
He however advised that I register for antenatal so they can save my baby.
I sat like I was seeing a seasonal movie, well I just said to myself “the world will end soon and you’ll forget about this”.
How could a twelve year old go through all this?, I haven’t even started my menstrual period !. Now this is hell.
A debate competition resulted in a lifetime agony. How am I going to face my friends at school?, Am I ever going to go back to school?, but am intelligent, is all gonna waste while I stay at home in shame nursing my pregnancy and my baby?. NOOOOOOO! I shouted loudly unconsciously.
My mum who was deep in tears held me tight on her chest. She thanked the doctor who later administered drugs for me and we left for home.
The ugly scene kept coming as I could feel the sharp pain all over again. I want to rewind back the moment, squeeze up the rapist and cut his manhood off. I want to hit myself in the wall and die.
I want to poison myself and die. I just want to get out of this mess. I just want to turn back the hands of time, I want to be the great debater again.
My mum knocked on my door, she said I had some visitors from my school.
Those were my “friends” who always envy my success. I was surprised to hear they were here as they wouldn’t want to do any thing than to mock me or find out what actally happened.
I quickly dressed up in one of my favorite gown. I did some touch up make up to look cheerful and good at least. As soon as I got downstairs, I met them holding some gift items in their hands. I was surprised. I quickly hugged them and wept.
It was a day well spent with them as we discussed several issues, they apologized for the wrong deeds they had done in the past and we exchanged hugs.
I thought their intention were pure. After spending hours, they decided to leave for their houses, I walked them to the garage, then headed back inside.
On getting inside I saw my mum holding the gift items in her hand angrily and looking at me like I stole some jewelry box.
I don’t even know the item she was holding, I stood by the door looking confused as I don’t know if I should go back or stay. I decided to move closer, then I saw the unwrapped “gift”.
It was a white pant stain with blood and an anti retro viral drug coupled with a diaper. I was confused at this, how come they knew all this.
Who could have done this? How do they know about the diaper and the drug ?. This is becoming unbearable for me.
It was a difficult thing to resume back to school, now it looks like my news is all over, courtesy of those girls.
Then as I was just thinking of this we heard a knock on the door , it was a hard and continuous one, we were scared, my mum told me to stay inside while she checked, as she opened the door, she was frightened. It was the ………….
