I never knew when I turned it into an habit, but I felt satisfied doing it. Whenever night fell and I felt lonely and sad I would sit outside and gaze at the stars while speaking to myself sometimes i do imagine that the stars are listening to the cry of my heart, I would reach out my hands to the stars and tears would roll down then ill smile. My name is alice i am a nigerian and come from Akwa-ibom state and a small village called ikono my childhood was quite a one I won't pray for my enemy to have. My mum died when I was born and my dad I never knew who he was my aunty who Is my mum's sister told me my mother was a prostitute that was why she ended up giving birth to someone's child that I bring badluck wherever I go that my existence brought about the death of my mum, my aunty, aunty vero as i call her was the younger sister to my late mum from a family of three, my mum was the eldest followed by aunty vero and a male child charles paul, you might wander why I didn't add uncle before calling his name, the reason is because I stopped seeing him as my uncle the day I escaped his evil hands I so much wished I was bold then I would have put a knife in his heart just the mention of his name and my blood boils. He is someone I could kill and still smile. Along the line you get to know why I so much hate him. My aunty was a doctor at the university of uyo teaching hospital and her husband was the MD at liberty micro finance, the C.E.O at sky electronics and the owner of eagles park. They had 3kids two boys and a girl and apart from me in that big mansion they had 6 servants 1 gate man etteobong who also took care of the flowers two drivers ben and Samuel a cook mrs effiom and normal cleaners Christy and Rebecca. When my aunty and uncle were out the house was quite lively since most of the servants had families as my aunty had a quarter for the maid were i was asked to stay before I passed badluck to her family as my aunty would always say as for my uncle my aunts husband he was a devil on his own and he started showing his true colour when I marked my 10th birthday. Mrs effiom had four kids ettebong had 3kids rebecca stayed with her younger ones samuel had two kids while the rest were single. In that compound only mrs effiom was nice to me the kids never liked me as I never came out to play with them the only person who truly understood me in that mansion was mrs effiom.
