She crept into the room slowly like a worm, took the left turn upholding the bannister with her hands so tight and at that point vividly recalling her past life, she previously had herself deep into a deceit love relationship before enduring the pain of being used and dumped. She checked if her pistol gun was intact and reassured herself she was good to go. She knocked at the first Mvule wood door she saw with her gun tight between her fingers ready to devour the soul that will open the hardwood door,
Life had given her a reason to kill a choice she never had thought she could one day arrive at. She recalled the night they met and like strangers, she could deny that friendly approach she got from him, his face was so clueless that he kept on biting words and as a naive lady, Tracy was all welcoming. Jack as his name goes, right now buried on the bed fully blanketed with a slut he calls "my woman" was handsome, Tracy could not deny it, rich to his own capacity and most of all a guy in every girl's dream. Tracy could not deny the friendship and as time goes by she had already fallen in love with him which was rather a trap and as they say all that glitters is not always gold. Tracy became so fond of Jack that the sun could not have set before she set her eyes on him.

Love is painful sometimes, Jack, on the other hand, realising that Tracy could die for him, he now showed his true characters. He became the opposite of what Tracy had in dreams, a man who was caring now could constantly hit her with no apparent reason. The worst of it all is that after sex Jack did call it a deal done. Jack was bright, he had a good sense of sartorial elegance and most of it all respected by people. Everything changed when Tracy realised she had a little human being growing inside her. This became a nightmare, still young and in the roots of books she had to deal with it in the most painful way. All her friends had deserted her life and who she thought she could hold on to was now lingering his fingers upon the waist of another lady. When Jack received the message that Tracy was pregnant, he became a snake, he started avoiding her and anytime they could meet in the streets of campus he had to pretend as if he had never seen her, in fact sometimes she called him but he ignored and pretended to be very busy in a sluggish conversation with his friends. Tracy could not confess she was pregnant to a man who dumped her after sex and most importantly, her parents would, of course, disown her. She came from a very powerful family. At that point, her uncle was an aspiring candidate for the presidency in the next electioneering year. Pregnant while still in school accompanied by sex before marriage could totally destroy the image of her uncle and her entire family. She decided it was best to keep quiet and stay in school giving lame excuses so as not to go home and now the father to her unborn child had changed completely.
