Diary of a servant girl edited version

prologue

Prologue

There was once a time when l would wake up with my mind set for adventure when l would eat 3 warm  meals per day when l would have no worries and my thoughts were considered , when l had a place to call home, when l thought black was beautiful ........and   when l was *happy*
...................................

But that all changed when my people the blacks where taken away  by the white soldiers . My father the chief fought for us but was shot by one of the white soldiers and left there lying on the ground ,never to get a decent burial .At the age 9 l witnessed my father get shot right infront of me  💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔
Children of 10 and below where forced to stay and  work as servants for the whites including me.My mother begged and pleaded for me to come with them but to all was in vain for these people had a heart made of stone   .  I just watched as the soldiers beat her up , insult her and they  throw her in the truck with the other adults ,forced to go work in farms and mines . I looked at my mother with Tears  flowing down my pale chubby  cheeks as she let go of my hand and was thrown into the truck . She looked at me with her kind warm tender hazel eyes and said in a weak cold voice " l will come back  for you" . And l will never forget those words .

I felt the  ice cold water touch my bare  skin waking me up within seconds . I looked up with red eyes that had been  caused by my  of lack of sleep. I looked up and saw Susan she was the youngest kid of the family l was enslaved in . And she had   a huge smile on her little chubby face . The girl was barely 6 but she treated me like some sort of filthy animal l guess she was taught soo by her parents.
Her. Well are u just going to sit there or wake up and make yourself useful , you wouldn't want me telling mum about your laziness would you
Me. No maam Susan l will wake up (sneazing) now
Susan. Ewww is this what black people do when they wake up .Anyway I'm hungry and l need u to cook me something quick capish
Me. Yes ma'am
Susan . Oh and take a bath you  reek

She looked at me with disgust and left  me lying on the cold wet mat . My dress was wet though it  just a potato sack l had gotten in the junk yard with my bestfriend Clarrisa .
Luckily we had gotten  enough sacks for such situations 
I removed my wet blanket and went to hang them outside and l saw Clarrisa washing some of  clothes . Clarrisa is my best friend but l think of her as more of a sister she and l were enslaved to two neighbours and that's how we met . She is  really pretty she is not very dark like me she is a bit lighter she has long blackish brownish hair ,is tall and slender and has cute small Chinese eyes  🥺🥺🥺🥺

Me. Good morning
Clarry. Is it a good morning
She looked at me with daggers in her eyes
Me. Whats Soo bad about this morning the sky is blue  the  birds are chirping and.......
Clarrisa . Ohhh please Kathy there is nothing good about this morning the sky looks the same dull as usual .

Him . Talk !
He kicked her nose using his knee   and she started bleeding and she  just stood still
Him . You know wat lve had enough of you tomorrow morning l am selling you to a farm hopefully you will cost a lot
