Chapter 3 I didn't answer her till she finished nagging and left my room.

I SOLD MY SOUL💔

EPISODE 3

*Sandra*

A WEEK LATER..

My siblings were set to go back to school.

I made sure I got everything they'll be needing.I've also sent their school fees to their accounts.

I called on both of them to my room.

I'll miss you guys so much" I said.

We too sis" they said sadly.

Please take good care of yourselves. This is your 3rd year, Please don't disappoint me. You know how I'm trying all I can to make ends meet. Please focus only on your studies so that you can come out in flying colors and also make me proud.

We will never disappoint you sis" Matilda said.

Thank you" I smiled.

But sis, you need to take care of yourself too. Please you'll need to stop this life someday." Kelvin said.

Yes I will only when I'm sure you both can fend for yourselves.

Hmmmmm...okay.

Matilda please I'm always begging you specifically, please don't even think of using your body to get anything done for any reason. Please.

This is not a life and me been in it already is enough please don't disappoint me please. Men will always try to use you but don't give them the chance please." I pleaded holding her hands.

Sis I will never disappoint you. I promise you that.

That's my girl. Don't worry about your phone okay,I'll get you a new phone for your birthday" I touched her cheek.

Aww.. thanks sis.

You're welcome.

Sis please take care of yourself" Kelvin said.

Alright darling . I will.

And please take good care of each other.

Okay sis.

I escorted them to the park and waited till their car took off.

I went back home to prepare for an appointment.

*Ugo*

A MONTH LATER...

Babe I'm glad you came visiting today. Since I came back from school you don't want to come and see me.

I'm sorry darling but you know I've missed you so much"Sandra said.

Me too love. So how have you been??.

I've been around and quite busy too.

Busy doing what???" I asked.

You know the story na" she smiled.

Sandy you haven't stopped??? I asked angrily.

Stop for what???

Who will pay my bills if I stop? Who will take care of my siblings in school and my over demanding mum???

Hmmmm...Sandra I know all of this but cmon you can't continue like this forever. You're all grown up now. You should use some of this money you get to start up something reasonable. Just maybe you might see a responsible man that will be willing to take care of you.

Ugo is not as easy as you think. Besides you know my take on men generally.

That some stupid ones take advantage of you doesn't make every man the same." I explained.

I'm okay with sleeping with them for money. Besides that's all they want. I don't _have any plan of getting myself involve with any stupid man that will still end up making me his sex toy. Is better I keep living for many that brings more money than to stick with one that will still use me.

_

Sandra you're just so stupid.

Yeah I know." She smiled.

If there is anything that I wish to emulate from *Sandra is the ability to still smile through her pain. This young lady is someone I've been friends with for years. She doesn't have a perfect life but trust me, she has a perfect heart. She has a heart that compliments her beauty.

So loving and* caring. She puts others before herself. Even when i was in school, sometimes after chatting with her and I told her how things were hard for me in school, she sends me money even without asking.

The truth is, I wish I can do something to help her and make her put an end to this life she's living. I just finished my Bsc program and I'm waiting for my result.

So what is the plan for now??" She asked.

I'll just wait till my result comes out, so that I'll go for my clearance. Then await nysc.

That's lovely. I can't wait to see you in your uniform tho.

Lol. Thanks babes.

We gisted for sometime because my mum and dad travelled to enugu for a wedding. .She stayed with me till she received a call and had to go.

*Sandra*

ONE WEEK LATER..

I came back home very tired on a Thursday night. I've already had something to eat at the hotel so I just came home,freshen up and prepare to sleep.

I was about dozzing off when mum entered inside my room.

Sandra...

Sandra..

Mhmmmm..mum

Yes ...I want to ask you for something.

Mum can't it wait till tomorrow m??

I'm tired and I need to rest.

No it can't.

Okay. What is it??" I asked still laying down.

I need money.

How much??" I asked .

Thirty thousand.

For what??" I stood up from the bed angrily.

My friend's daughter is getting married in three weeks time and the aseobi for us is 15 thousand. You know I need to buy shoe to match it and sew it too. And you know I'll still need to hold change that I'll spray that day" she smiled

Mum????" I shouted not minding if it's night or not.

Why are you shouting?? She asked

Mum you need 30k for your friend daughter's wedding. That's too much na.

Too much ke??

Were you not listening when I was telling you how it all sum up to be 30k?

Mum where do you expect me to get that amount of money from within a short notice??

Ah ah...are you not going to work again??.

Mum" I smiled.

So you're not even ashame that I prostitute myself to feed this house???

There is nothing to be ashamed of besides this is better than stealing.

Oh I see.

Well mum, I'm sorry I don't have money and please I want to sleep because I'm tired." I said and layed back.

Hehehe..you know that's a joke.

You better go out tomorrow and look for money for me o because I can't be left out in that wedding.

I didn't answer her till she finished nagging and left my room.

Which kind mama be this one na???

God isn't it enough that I'm a certified prostitute??? Why do you have to make my mum like this????" I cried throughout the night till I was able to sleep.

TBC....
