MY room was the way i left it, kitanda unmade, blinds wound down, even the plate at my dawati still remained in its place, I was 5 years old when i left, and things were identical at age 17. The air smelt of dust, it was aslo foggy, i had to fight the dust to make it through my way to the blinds. Opening the blinds, Light began flitering throught, at this moment all the memories floated in.

Flash back.

Knock knock!
"Come in, if wewe dare"i giggled a innocent laugh, a child, i was 4 years old.
"Hello my darling, wewe getting up your silly games again, thats very naughty of you, wewe know good little girls dont play games,"i even remember his smirk.
-------------------------------------------------
"Bella do wewe know what people do, when they upendo someone?"
"No, love's stupid"
"You shouldn't say such things, You're lucky a man like me loves you."
--------------------------------------------------
"no"
--------------------------------------------------
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
--------------------------------------------------
"Mummy,if upendo hurts, then why do wewe upendo him"



For years i forgot all about those times, and began on life from my fathers side, jacobs side. It was like i was seeing them for the first time, like i was innocent like that little girl. I diddn't even recongised her. Falling to my knees, the blood rushing down from my face, laying down on the ground, i saw a passing shawdow, and a distinct snort of disgust from outside the door, followed kwa a "Click" only from the outside..
My moyo fell. In a growing panic i flicked my head to all angles, stopping once while looking under the bed.Under my kitanda was a gray object facing down. snatching it, and from the first touch i was pulled throught again;

Flashback

i lay under the bed, watching the feet rave around my room, i dare not release a sound, for if they knew i was listening, i would be dead.
"SHUT UP RENAE, YOU'RE AS F**KING USLESS AS THAT LITTLE W***E OUT THERE!"
"HOW DARE wewe CALL HER THAT, SHES 5 YEARS OLD FOR CHRISTS SAKES, wewe HURT OUR DAUGHTER, I HATE wewe I HATE wewe I HATE YOUUHOHO." *slap*
"I alisema SHUT UP, DONT wewe DARE INSULT ME BITCH, wewe DONT THINK I DONT KNOW ABOUT YOUR LITTLE PLAY DATES WITH CHARLIE, I KNOW SHES NOT MINE RENAE!I KNEW AS SOON I ENTERED HER" i hear him club something into his fists from the desk. SHe wimpered.
"Please phil,"
"I alisema SHUT UP!" he threw whatever he had in this grasp at her, i felt the force viprate throught the carpet.
The object fell to the ground, then slid under the kitanda beside my arm, i held my gasp.

I flipped the gray object, and saw a photo. It showned the little girl, and the portrait-type mother.
