"seriously , let's be real here, What do you want from me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!".I shouted through the phone.
"Hey, young lady, do you realize that you're screaming!! I don't blame you..that poverty trait has splashed into your head"
"I don't wanna start another round of arguments with you now, tell me what you want from me and we make a deal, like am eighteen years old and I don't need a guardian sooo🤷what!"
" Okay , the thing is .. you'll have to meet me in my house at 101 Johnson St, Brooklyn, NY 11201, USA , so it's Monday, am expecting by Wednesday... is that clear??"
" It's not clear enough, like am living in New York City,so I can't travel all the way to Brooklyn.. don't you get it"
" That is not my bussiness, we have a deal or not".
" Ok whatever 🙄"
" And don't forget to bring your mother's documents along , I have things to do with them"
"Oh old man, you're going too far,..."
"Will you shut up that dirty,smelly and filthy mouth of yours Young lady, I invested in your mother ,so I have every right to own her properties, and besides I am her next of kin,in case you don't know and she is my wife, she's my property and anything that belongs to her , belongs to me as well ,do not just have in your mind that I married her for the fun of marriage, look here ,let me make something clear to you, she's my investment!! she is my investment!! And I'll shout it for the world to hear me and understood?! I have to gain... What is bussiness without profit?,like to be sincere ,tell me? and I think I have to enjoy my profit so whatever you're saying just keep it to yourself she's mine not yours, this is to my instructions or you will hate yourself 😡"
" I can not just hand over my mother's documents to the person who killed her!!., Why am I even making a harmless ,dumb,stupid, deal"
" Shut the crap up , you know what I can do..." He threatened and cut off the call.
Gosh..what have I done to deserve all this ...That man is dangerous and I can't just go into the devil's dungeon without backup or protection, I know what I've passed through when I was under that man, and I don't want it to repeat itself.
I've lost hope , let me just give everything up and start afresh...I remembered a quote which states that...' if you're not brave enough no one would back you up' I need to stand up for my self, but I don't want to do any thing illegal.
Something clicked In my mind that on my journey , while moving here ,I sighted a police station around 40 E 7th St, New York, NY 10003, USA and I think that's closer to me, so I think I might need some help.
Well,after some reasoning , I decided to seek the police attention but before that, I need to eat , play ,read away my sorrow..
So I ordered some pizza and I decided to read see a movie , I logged in my account on Netflix and I decided to see a short movie,I settled for some Nigerian comedy clips, the comedian name is taooma and I also watch some ikorodu bois comedy clips,it was so hilarious,like Nigerians are talented ,I really love that country but what discourages me is that the rate at which there is corruption in that country is very high but apart from that..I love the country.....Later on I logged into my Wattpad account to read my favorite novel a rapper and a royal by dahmeekgal,This book ,I must confess is the best of the best...so addictive a book , I really love it most especially because the plot is based in Britain.
Well right now since I'm in a new environment I just actually finished high school before my step dad actually banned me from going to school ,so with the money with me, I'm thinking of applying into a college just to further my education but I don't really know what Field to go into.
since I can draw, I can write ,I love reading, I love sports, I love doing a lot of things ,I think I should go for humanities, maybe psychology ,I don't want to do business maybe I should go for law, that would be a very good choice or maybe English for screen acting ,I'm just venturing to arts in general, lol ,it's sure good because it's one of the influential causes that make someone rich so I think that's what I should go for what do you all think?
Right now I'm posting my application letter the nearest college around me maybe that will help my computer abilities and besides for my upkeep because I need to take care of myself I think I may want to go hunting for maybe an after-school job to keep myself going.
I think for now I'm just going to erase whatever my stepfather said maybe I should just give it all up but I can't allow this man to control me just like that taking everything away from me and now it's going to take my mother's properties away from me know that's never going to happen.
I really need a backup this time around let's go legal
I think I might even use this opportunity to report him to the cops about my mother's death maybe they will take you seriously this time around cuz I don't think he has learnt his lesson with the small amount of time he spent in jail.
Who am I to blame him, he is a very influential person and I think he is trying to keep it that's why I don't mind to my mother getting married to him at first but later on I discovered that he was a ' green snake under the green grass' I once overheard him saying he was once married was married with child, not sure but I know why my mum and married him ,the money, yes and yes the money.
I think at this stage I am really pissed and sick as well as tired of him poke nosing into I and my mother's life, because with all the confidence, if I don't drop those documents I think I might be armed
All well , I'll give everything up and hand everything to the government and to the hand of God Almighty, I know one day one day God will fight for me even if I don't have the strength enough to fight for myself
I think for now I'll be the best I want to be I want to make sure I make it in life, no matter the obstruction and so help me God
Well after soliloquizing for quite a long time ,I heard the jingle of the door bell and I knew it was a pizza deliverer ,well right timing, I need to get to eat,. hello pepperoni!
