THE DARK SIDE OF ME

It started with a young lady alone in a hotel balcony thinking about committing suicide. She felt tired about everything that is going on. To her, committing suicide was the only way to end everything.

FLASHBACK TO 3 YEARS AGO

Abrafi is so happy because she got accepted to University of Ghana. This is one of the best School in the country and she is so happy to get admission there to study law. She want to become a lawyer in the future and the reason was to fight against abusers. Growing up, lawyer is the only thing she wanted to do. So, getting this opportunity to study law at the biggest and best University in the country is really a big deal for her. To her, school is the only place she feels protected.

She always goes home during weekends and always sad whenever she comeback from home. No one sees her sadness. She is the first person to see her friends hardship and always helped them without expecting anything in return. But when it comes to her, they do not see what she is going through. She is the type of person her friends rely on, but they are always not available whenever she needs them. And she never complained. Abrafi is living with her mom, stepfather, and stepbrother in a mansion. Her stepfather is filthy rich. He is the founder of Owusu and CO law firm, one of the biggest firms in the country. Her step bro is also a lawyer working in his fathers firm. Her mom is a housewife and enjoys travelling around the world a lot.

Her mom got married to her stepfather when she was 8 years. Her mom divorced her abusive father when she was 5 and has never heard from since then. Her stepfather treated both her and her mom well. He gave her whatever she wants, and this made her believed that he is their angel on earth. Her step bro was a little cold to her at the beginning but became sweet later. But things became ugly when she turned 17years. Her stepfather started sleeping with her, warned her not to tell anyone including her mom or he will kill both and warned her not to anyone.

Few months for her to go to college, her step bro called her to come to his room for them to have a conversation. When she first went there, her stepbrother started touching her breast and butt. She was feeling uncomfortable.

Cut the crap. Take off your clothes! her step bro yelled.
