That one day that ruined it all...
We hadn’t seen each other in weeks because of school and other issues that kept on coming up.
He constantly texted, begging to see me, if only for 5 minutes. I was trying so hard to convince my parents to let me go out but they didn’t seem to want to cooperate with me on that day. Giving up, I collapsed onto my bed and fell asleep...
Oh how I regret that small nap I took...
I woke up remembering that my love was waiting for me to let him know if I could see him or not and I jumped out of bed looking everywhere for my phone. I couldn’t find it....
It was with them....They found it...they read everything....they knew everything.
My brothers came into my room and slammed the door behind them. Their eyes red and furious. They kept on asking me questions...who is he? When did you meet him? How far have you gone? But I didn’t want to say anything...I didn’t want them to hurt him...
They threatened to whip me if I didn’t speak up, but I didn’t care. I told them nothing.
One of my brothers left the room and went downstairs while the others continued interrogating me...
When he showed up he was holding a whip. A thin brown whip.
He whipped me so much that I felt that the tears I was crying were tears of blood...but I didn’t speak up...I told them...Nothing.
My mother came into the room begging my brother to stop. Thankfully...he did...
Seeing that there was no point in asking me questions they left my room and locked it from the outside with a key.
I couldn’t believe what happened...My head kept on spinning...I was crying tears that burnt my skin...I felt my heart aching. But no regret... no...
Not for a single moment did I ever regret loving him.
I just regretted that I wasn't more careful
