A Teenager's Misfortunes
Taylor rushed past the school gate so she could make it to class before the first class was over.
It had become quite a habit of being late,she had been punished several times but after looking into the situation and seeing it wasn't the poor girl's fault and there was absolutely nothing, they could do about it,the school authorities let her be.
Taylor Olsen was a very poor but beautiful girl. She had very fine features which were mostly hidden under over size cheap dresses, glasses and summarily,lack of care.
Her mother died giving birth to Coco,her little sister who she loved with her heart and soul. Her father had never really cared for them even when their mother was alive.
At a tender age of six,she had grown hating her father who hurled insults, slaps and punches at their mother at the slightest mistake.
It was clear their father, Rolland never loved their mother. He always said marrying their mother was the biggest mistake of his life and he only married her because of the fact that she got pregnant with Taylor during their relationship.
Her mother had always known he had an affair but she bore everything quietly for the sake of her daughter. While she was heavily pregnant with their second child, Rolland had not only hit her but pushed her down the stairs which made her go into premature labor.
Birthing Coco was hard for Miranda,the doctors said she wouldn't survive due to internal bleeding and her unstable health through out the pregnancy.
It was a miracle Coco was healthy. Before Miranda died, she had called Taylor and told her to be strong no matter what and do her best to protect Coco.
She could still remember it like it was just yesterday as it always brought tears to her eyes.
