Diana's POV
Mummy received an email this morning from an unknown person .since mummy opened the mail she has refused to come out from the room .Her eyes showed sorrow and she is also reluctant to cry ,I feel pity for mummy because I don't know how to console her ,daddy is the best person at consoling mummy and she is always happy when daddy is around ,I wanted to wake Tricia up to help me console mummy but I remember that she cares about no one and all she will do is to ask nonsensible questions and ignore her. I could not hold back now I had to do something, now ,yes now ,so I went to mummy in her room and took the letter from her hands ,she was so grieved that she didn't realise that I was reading her letter "Corine ,I know I don't deserve to talk to you ,I know I have hurt you in
all forms and this has left an unremarkable scar in your heart . I am not writing this letter to convince you to forgive me because I know I don't deserve your forgiveness but I rather want you to help me ,after what I did to you ,I have been so troubled ,restless ,and not myself ,I was tempted several times to come to you for forgiveness but because I know of the aggravation of what I did to you,I could not bear to come before you .After the r**e issue I left for flamingo. I got married to a renowned mayor,he was called Raymond Yiffurs ,but unfortunately he had HIV/AIDS I had found this bout after giving birth to my third child chelsea,when Chelsea was born she showed so many signs of illness so I decided to send her to the hospital ,the medical results came but that she was HIV /AID's positive so I decided to check myself to ,but I was also positive . At that moment I was doomed, it turned out Raymond had HIV before our marriage and due to my ignorance I did not go through all the required processes before the marriage ,my first ans last children ( Leonel and Chelsea ) were also HIV/AIDS positive but surprisingly our second son stephan had maneuvered his way through all this . He is the only way to save our family. By the time you are receiving this letter I would be dead ,stephan was taken two weeks ago to an orphanage because the government did not want him to be traumatised with the sudden death of his two siblings in the same month and the death of his dad in the next month . To go straight to the point. I am writing you this letter to give you my son stephan . I know I wasn't the best mother for him and that you are the best person to take care of him for me ,please help me save the reputation of my family by taking stephan into your house and taking care of him .
Your Sister
Elizabeth.
I was so shocked after reading this paper because mummy had never spoken about a close relative of the name Elizabeth and now mummy was about to accept a new person into our home ."who is she mummy " I asked , mummy started talking as the tears flowed down her eyes slowly it rushed down her cheeks "she is my elder sister " my replied , "and I have never hear you talk about her before ?"I said " yes I have never spoken about her nor spoken to her since 14 years ago when she called some guys to r**e me due to envy and jealousy " ,the tears rushed very hastingly so I decided to get a handkerchief for her. I went to the laundry room and I was back with a blue handkerchief I had just washed two days ago . Mummy cleaned her tears and gazed at me ,"so does it mean Elizabeth is dead " I asked , " yes she is " mummy replied. " so what are you going to do?" I asked "I am going to be bringing stephan here " she said . I was very upset after mummy told me stephan will be coming to leave with us ,he might be my cousin in some way but I was never ready to stay with a cousin and besides we are now going to be six in thr house what a big number. "But mum what if Stephan also has HIV/AIDS in him and he found it after he has transmitted it to us " No he doesn't have it ,the lawyer called me yesterday and sent me Elizabeth 's will and he also sent me a photocopy of the lab test that showed that stephan was HIV/AIDS negative. "But mum" I said, " he is coming here and that's final "mummy screamed . I was so furious and went upstairs to pack my things up.
