Episode 11
The following day I refused to come out from the residence I was not ready to face anybody. I heard noises from outside and I didnât care. Suddenly, Mr Frank came into the residence. I turned to look at him and he slapped me and I fell from where I was sitting.
âWhy are you here, when the rest are busyâ he asked
I stood up from the floor and I felt blood on my lips. I restrained myself from crying. I refused to answer him and I just stared blankly at him.
âAre you deaf?!â he shouted âcanât you talkâ he asked.
I refused to answer him. I was getting angry and I felt adrenaline pass through me.
âDo you want me toâŠâŠâŠâŠ.â he said coming closer to me
ââDonât touch me!!!!â I pushed him until he fell on the floor. âdo you think you are a god I should worship. do you think I was born because of youâ I cried.
I couldnât control my emotions and I burst into tears immediately. The pain was too much I canât continue to swallow what theyâve been doing to me.
he got up from the floor and dusted his body, then he pulled me outside.
âtie her to the tree and get me the whip. animals should be treated like oneâ he said.
âmaster please. itâs not her faultâ Mary begged.
then his men came and held me.
âno let me go, I wonât let you do this. let me goâ I struggled but it was in vain.
âmaster pleaseâ Mary continued to beg.
âshut up or youâll replace her and yours will be worseâ he threatened
They succeeded in tying me to the tree and then I heard the sound of the whip and instantly I became scared
âbeat herâ he told Mary
âwhatâŠ.no..nâŠ.no sir I canâtâ she said.
âi said beat herâ he shouted
âmaster please itâs not her fault. please forgive herâ she begged
âwhat could be worse than throwing your master to the floor and raising insults on him uh?! Tell me!!!!. now beat herâ he said
âIâŠ.IâŠiâm sorry sir but I canâtâ she said.
âalright then, iâll do it and mine would be worse. iâll make sure she bleeds before I stopâ he said.
my heart was beating profusely. I closed my eyes and got ready for the whip. I got one lash on my back and I went numb immediately. instantly I became weak. he gave me the second one and I couldnât hold it.
âGOD!!!!!!â I shouted and cried.
he kept on whipping me, I couldnât move or shout or even cry. I went numb. I could feel blood from my back I knew I was soaked with blood.
âFather stop!!!!â a voice shouted. I recognise the voice and I knew it was Stacy. âstop this madness now!!!!!â she shouted.
âget back to your room, you shouldnât be seeing thisâ he said.
âwhy are you like this? why canât you just be like a normal father? must you do this? do you even care to know why she was like that. all you care about is you, yourself and nobody else. you are a monster. for Godâs sake these people are humans and not animals. Your stupid son raped and her and now you her beating her when the other wound it not even healed yet. I hate you. You are not my father, a man like you is best dead to save the country and the people in itâ she said and walked away.
there was silence for while. everywhere was getting blur and finally he spoke.
âuntie her, lock her in the dark room without food or water until further notice.â he said and walked away.
as they untied me I fell to the floor and darkness took over.
I woke up in a very dark room and the next thing that followed was pain from my back. I tried to sit up but I couldnât I just layed on my stomach. the pain was so much. then I heard a voice from the door
âSakiraâŠare you thereâ a voice asked
âMary?â I called weakly
âOh thank God. iâm so sorry, iâm really sorryâ she cried
ââ iâm okay. where am Iâ I asked weakly
âMaster told his men to lock you upâ she said. then I recalled all that happened before I fainted. I remember he said I should be locked up without food or water. I really donât need those. what I need is my freedom.
âokay thanksâ I said weakly
âSakira we will fight this together. this will end soon.â she said.
âi hope soâ I cried
Later she left and I cried on the bed I was on and prayed that God should get me out of this bondage.
