Episode 28
The sight of my mum standing there with the gloves in her hands terrified me. Cold shivers down my spine.
This scenario was familiar, i knew what she was up to, she had done it before.
But this time, her result will be different, i had lost my virginity a few hours ago.
I could not imagine what will happen to me if she discovered the truth.
âlie downâ she ordered in a stern voice
âmummy please donât do this, i beg youâ i pleaded, kneeling down and sobbing uncontrollably.
âshut up, since you cannot explain why you came home late, i ll find out for myselfâ she said, moving towards me.
âmummy i didnât do anything, please donât do this to me againâ
âI forgot to give you money for feeding along with transport, so i felt you would use your transport money for food. i stoped by at your school to give you some money on my way back from work. I was told that you and your friends left after the English lesson. Where did you go?â
The entire story shocked me very much. My mum knows definitely that i was not in school.
I couldnt tell her where i went either, that would spell the end of lectures for me.
I had to say something, anything to get out of this mess. It was moments like this i wished i had Ruth here.
â i went home with Ruthâ, i blotted out, without thinking it through.
âhavent i warned you never to go close to that prostitute?â
âshe is the only friend i haveâ i said, increasing my tears and hoping it would soften my mumâs heart. But that was not to beâ
âfriend indeed, how am I sure you havenât been sleeping with men just like herâ?
âmummy i swear i havenâtâ
âin that case lie down letâs seeâ, as she tried to pull me up from my knees unto the bed.
My excuses and lies were futile, my mum was bent on doing her inspection.
I knew exactly how bad this could get, the embarrassment would be colossal. I was determined not to allow it happen.
I made up my mind to stand up to my mother just like Ehis had adviced.
I broke away from her grip, and moved away from the bedside towards my wall mirror.
âMy friend lie down on that bed before i lose my temperâ, she yelled angrily.
â Iâm not lying down, leave me aloneâ i yelled at her with the same ferocity.
The expression on her face changed, the anger was replaced with surprise and disbelief. This was the first time i had yelled at her.
âso Ella, it has come to this?â She asked, walking slowly towards me
I began to retreat, as she approached, I knew this was not going to end well for a certainty, but knowing about the state of my virginity would hold far more dire consequences.
I had my back to the wall already, there was no further room to retreat. My mum closed in on me and aimed a slap directly at my face.
I caught her hand mid way in the air, and held on to it.
âso you want to beat me too?â She asked, and began to scream.
âElla must beat me todayâ
She broke free from my grip, and held on to my tightly to my shirt, ripping it apart with all her energy.
She gripped my singlet as well, and began to tear at it. I did not have a bra on, if i allowed her to tear my singlet, i ll be Unclad.
I grabbed her hand firmly, preventing her from tearing my singlet. We began to struggle, as we pulled in opposite directions.
She freed one of her hands, and grabbed my skirt. It wasnât firmly on my hips, neither was the material of good quality. The slightest pull would rip it apart.
I wasnât putting on any p@anties either, and i thought there would still be stains of dried blood on my tights.
I just couldnât let her strip me Unclad. I leaned foward a little, resting my whole weight and pushed her slightly.
My mum went to the ground as if she had been knocked down by a bulldozer.
She began to scream on top of her voice, âElla is fighting me o, My own daughter is beating meâ
Her screams must have alerted everyone in the house, as i heard doors flying open inside the house.
The first to arrive at my door was Ighalo. He b@nged on the door, trying to inquire about what was happening.
I ran to the door, and unfastened the hook. Ighalo ran straight at my mum on the floor, and tried to pull her up. She resisted every attempt to get her on her feet.
âmummy i told you not to fight her when she returns, just look at what is happeningâ Ighalo said, picking up my torn shirt and throwing it at me to cover myself.
My dad entered the room in a hurry, and yelled âwhat is happening here?â
â Ella is fighting me o, Ella is fighting me. Your daughter is now sleeping with men, i wanted to check if she was still intact, and she started fighting meâ
Those words cut deep into my heart, i felt a mixture of anger and remorse. I did not know how to show those feeling.
My heart began to pound, and my knees knocked each other. I was deeply terrified.
âso it has gotten to this?â My dad asked in anger, walking towards me and pulling out his belt.
