8 YEARS OLD ME

3 months ago

Bad times, hmm. For my age presently the life I have lived I would say I have had a lot of good times and some bad times 😉. Growing up I was “rebellious” according to my eldest brother and I did a lot of bad things and there's one I would never forget till this day, never ever, till this day I still feel bad although looking at it now it's nothing serious only that I nearly gave my mum a heart attack .

It happened that I got into a fight with somebody about something (one of my siblings) but I cannot really remember who or what caused the fight but I knew it all started with a quarrel and it escalated into a fight, my mum being a mother threatened to report me to my father. At that age my father never laid his hands on me because I knew u had grown up a bit before my father gave me the first and last beating of my life, but I saw him beat others especially my eldest brother and I was scared to my bones when my mum said she was going to report me to my Dad.

Like I said I was scared to my bones and I ran inside crying and I decided to go to my mum's room to bed her but didn't find her there and I saw some money on her bedside table naive me I picked the money and ran to my grandma's place, me saying I ran does not mean it's close by it was a journey of almost two hours and my mum was looking for me everywhere she cried wailed and screamed, according to her she almost visited the police station to file a report for a missing daughter (me) only for her to get a call from my grandma that I'm in her house. At that very young and tender age, if you ask me now how I got to my grandma's house I don't know all I know is I went to the park bought a ticket and off I went to my grandma's house .

My mum was glad that finally her daughter was not lost, she allowed me stay there for weeks and later came to pick me up, I was expecting the African parent in her to come up (beating) but nothing happened and I was glad life just continued just like that although my siblings haunted me with that for months.
See you tomorrow. Same time, same account, same writer.
