After some days,I was set to go home.uncle Ade was already at the police custody,he was tortured,and dealt with,Mrs Williams had said he would deal with her and make sure the case goes to court,but mother had said no, she had thought about it that she leaves him with God,I was the one who failed my daughter,if I hadn’t allow a man make me send my daughter out,this wouldn’t have happened,so I leave him with God the father to judge,I shall do my best and help my daughter recover,she said you were very kind to her,thank you very much Mrs Williams for being a mother to my child,oh come on Sarah,your mother and I have been friends for God knows how long,you are like a daughter to me, and Christabel is an adorable child that is so lovable,it hurts me to know these misfortune happened to her under my watch.while we were talking, Mabel who was cooking in the kitchen had fell,we rushed to where she was and saw she was lying motionless on the ground.we immediately rushed her to the hospital,the doctor revived her and ran some test,it was diagnosed she she was pregnant, and she fainted out of fatigue.

Bringing her home,Mrs Williams asked her how long what ever she had with uncle Ade had been,and she said from the day she started living with them,but you were only 11 then Mrs Williams asked,yes that because I had already started doing it when I was 9, my mother is a single parent,she brings different men home,and some of them started touching me as early as when I was 9, Jesus, Mrs Williams,mother and grandmother shouted..so all these have been going on between Ade and you over 2years and you refused to speak out,now you are bearly 14,and you are already in the family way.mrs Williams placed a call to the police station asking for uncle Ade release according to mother’s wish,he also placed a call to mabel’s mother.
