Oh my God
Chapter One. In a village named Igbo- Eze South, there lived a rich family named Amalar. They were rich and well known people in village . They had a house help named Isolo. Isolo was a young girl of seven years when her Mom sent her to live with and serve the Henry family. Isolo is a beautiful girl.Her father died from cholera when she was four years old. Her Mom is a satchet water seller who had no formal education. On cold days, no one buys cold satchet water, so they had to sleep hungry. Life was so unbearable to them, the profit made if at all, couldn't afford one square meal. Living with the Henry made life unbearable. MRS Henry made her do all the house chores, even when she had four daughters. She maltreated Isolo too much that she preferred death to living. Sometimes her husband MR Henry would caution her about the way she treated Isolo, but, she always turned a deaf ear. Some days Isolo is permitted to eat one square meal a day, and most times, none. One faithful evening, Isolo was in the kitchen washing a heap of dirty plates with an empty stomach, when Nnenna who is the last born of The Henry, packed plenty of the neat plates and dumped in the basin of soapy water that Isolo was was washing with. This made Isolo furious and she called. "Nnenna come back here! What is the meaning of this stupid action of yours.? Why did you dropped this plates here. Aren't they clean?" Immediately, Somtosi the third child aged twelve, answered Isolo. "Do those plates look neat in your eyes? By the way, why would you ask her such stupid question? Are you not here to serve us? ?You stupid bastard." She said and walked away from Isolo dragging her sister along with her. Isolo cried, but was not surprised when her tears didn't flow, she had cried more than enough that day. "Isolo! Isolo" MRS Henry called from the living room. "Yes ma, I'm coming" Isolo answered. "Come HERE! Stupid baboon of no caliber."MRS Henry went on ranting. Isolo was in her front shivering with fear. "How dare you insult my daughters that worth more than all your extended and nuclear family combined" She said while flogging Isolo with broom ?. Isolo could do nothing but cry. At night, when everyone had gone to bed , Chibuchi the first child who is Isolo age mate crept into the kitchen and collected meat and a plate of soup from the soup pot. After eating the meat, she took the plate of soup to the place Isolo used as a room. She dropped some soup on the way to the room. Then she stained Isolo's mouth with some. Before leaving the plate there and crept to her room. She still had the urge to eat more meat, so, she took the whole meat her hands ✋ ✋ could take and ate in a hurry. After she crept to her room, in her hurry, she left the soup pot open. The next morning, Isolo went to the kitchen to prepare food for the family . After cooking, she wanted to heat the soup so that it won't be sour at noon, then she realized that the soup was already sour and all the meat was gone. Isolo knew that one of the children would have done it. She knew that MRS Henry won't believe that it wasn't her that did it, she began to weep. She saw soup stains on her dress ?. "Isolo, should we all die like your father because of you? Bring my food you stupid creature." Chibuchi shouted at Isolo. "What is the meaning of that? Your mate are already cooking food for their family. Are you mad?"MR Henry asked Chibuchi. "Is it because of that miserable creature that made you to shout on my daughter that way?"MRS Henry asked, rising up from the dining table . "Sit-down there. Where do you think that you are going to?" MR Henry questioned his wife, but she was already heading towards the kitchen where Isolo was.
