Chapter 44
Mr Jayme finally made the announcement, he stood up and cleared his throat "I know you all are wondering who this beautiful lady is" he said as he searched the faces of the family members with a smile on his face. " Well this is Anderlin messan my girlfriend"
The glass I was holding fell from my hands.. it's Anderlin my father's adopted daughter, no wonder she looked so familiar yet difficult to recognize, she has gotten older and looked more matured. The last time I saw her, she was fifteen.
She was one of the people that humiliated I and my mum. She made our lives a living hell, I remembered a particular incident where she poured the water used to wash the dishes on my mom's head because my mom washed other dishes before her favorite dish.... I was just coming from mopping the living room when I saw the act, I asked her why she would do that to my mom but instead she poured the remaining water on me I wouldn't have any of it, I quickly picked one of the dishes that contained left over food and poured it on her, then I emptied the dirty In the mop bucket on her head.
That day I got the beating of my life from my father, he beat me up without even thinking.. my mom was pleading and crying, but he never listened he beat me to his satisfaction.... I was so heartbroken, that was the day I decided to remove that man from my heart. I had thought with time he would grow to love us but it never happened.
