NOMZAMO

chapter 10

You know when you see and feel that you have no one in the world. It's those harsh and bitter moments that make you realise your worth in someone elses life.I,Nomzamo,lay flat on the cold floor masked by excruciating pain of the beatings that were forcefully put on my body realise that I am alone and no one is going to be your savior. It took me so long to recover and not to question myself then after so many days on the journey of recovery I am back to that one place I thought I'd never go back to which is the Jones household.

----------------------------------------------------
Charlene's POV
Today I've decided to stand up for what I strongly believe should be done.I swear on my father's grave that I will make sure to rescue Nomzamo from that hell hole.The poor girl must be dying out there while I'm busy having a lavish lifestyle. Mother will have to forgive me on this one ,she'd rather disown me for doing the right thing.There is only one problem and it is how would I gain access to the quarters and my mom has access to the keys no one has duplicates of them.I will have to distract her and take the keys so that I make a duplicate one.She sleeps like an old hag so I think that's the only way I'll get access to the key and I'll also have to give her sleeping pills so she sleeps the whole night.Mother won't know what hit her(devilish smile)
--------------------------------
Charlene: Mother ,How are you on this fine morning?
Angela:I am so fine child you seem happy,what happened got a new boyfriend?
Charlene:There is nothing mother the dating part is far from my mind ,I mean they would date me but I don't think it would a long and happyrelationship whilst there is you in my life.Have you seen what you do or what you even capable of tge pood boy will die before meeting you so the dating part is still a no for me.I want us to just forget about everything that's happened over the past few weeks let it be water under the bridge. So what say mother and daughter dinner date.I will cook no need to worry yourself.
Angela:What is the occasion for today I never got the memo?You so sly so I would not believe anything that comes out of your filthy mouth.
Charlene:I'll just say that when you are finally happy of a plague that will be successfully eradicated from our lives and it's Nomzamo.
Angela:Who would have thought that you Charlene would be happy to finally get rid of thee rude Nomzamo and that is music to my ears.

Narrator
Angela took drank the coffee that had sleepinh pills that were intended on knocking her out for hours.This was surely a huge task for Charlene to do but she had no choice or she'd be miserable just as she's dealing with accepting the death of the Housekeeper and hee father and now the third one to come she couldn't bear yet another heartache. Tonight she was going to save Nomzamo and deal with her devilish mother later on.The pills were starting to invade her veins and make her feel drowsy.Angela was feeling sleepy so she decided to call it a night and retire to bed.That was when Charlene saw a chance of trespassing into her mothers room mind you Angela's bedroom was a sacred space for her children from the day her husband departed from this Earth and the question remained unanswered as to why did she not want anyone in the room.Could she have been on some voodoo shenanigans or what?
Time was not on Charlene's side so she had to find a way to duplicate the key but how?She quickly and quietly ran to bathroom to fetch soap so that she could press the keys on the soap to make a copy of it to make the key tomorrow. Her plan was nicely executed and Angela never heard anything on that night.Charlene was quite impressed with the stunt she pulled off and she gave herself a pat on the shoulder that she outsmarted her own mother for that day.Could this be an escape for Nomzamo?
