HER LAST CONFESSION
I always watched as papa beat her and the hatred and resentment grew inside me. I hated papa for beating her and mama for not defending herself. She said she loved him and he would get over it but anytime she said that, I would feel like shaking some senses into her. Not long after that I started having nightmares. I dreamt I was married and the man I was living with started beating me until I almost died, I woke up with screams and didn't know what to do. I didn't pray because I didn't believe in the god my mother was crazy about and I couldn't run away pretending nothing was happening to me. Reality soon caught up with me. Mama died 18 months after the last beating. It was exactly 3.30am and for the first time in my life, I saw mama defending herself, I saw the rage in papas eyes as her took a broken bottle and stabbed mama at-least 26 times. She did not survive it but her last words were ;forgive him lord for he knoweth not what he is doing'. I have heard mama read that from a big dusty book on the coffee table, when I asked her what it meant, she then started telling me the story of a man with supernatural powers who said those words when he was being crucified and he prayed to God to forgive those who crucified him.
No wonder she is crazy, she believes in a crazy man too, I kink its a good thing she went to meet him at least they would share their craziness and live happily ever after.
