It had been three days since my mother got engaged and all I did was stay in my room. I couldn't believe that even after telling my mother that I did not want her messing with men, she still did not listen and to make matters worse, she told me nothing about it. I wondered if that man did not cast a spell on her because she did not care about my feelings anymore. I had continued receiving invitations from Gabriel in prison, I would go and he would have his way as usual, I tried my best not to show anyone that I was hurting inside.
My stepfather-to-be was a renowned businessman in our town, he worked hand in hand with the government to improve the country's financial services. He was a father of three grown men and one female of my age who lived outside the country for education purposes.
