She was going to
6 years when she
Lost her mum, the
Only surviving parent of
The blast to cold hands of death
After their mum’s death
She was taken away
From their parents house
By her elder sister
To the city to live
She started living with
Her family in the
City and was enrolled
In school alongside with
Other children of her age
She started new life
In the city, the
Life she now lives
Was strangely strange to
Her from that of rural area
After her graduation from
The elementary school she
Moved to the higher
Pedestal and was coping
Well according to teachers’ reports
She soon finished from
There and from teacher
Training school. She secured
Employment with the Local
Authorities to teach pupils
While teaching pupils of
Elementary school that was
When he met with
A man who was
The father of a pupil
Four months back the
Man lost his wife
To the cold hands
Of death and has
Been catering for children
It though has not
Been very easy for
Him and he is
Seeking for a responsible
Lady to assist him
When he met with
Her, he penetrated into
Her heart by his
Mind and feels she
Was the one expected
They started seeing each
Other. The wind of
Their relationship got to
Her sister who did
Not support the relationship
She did not support
It because the man
Had been married before
She wants her to marry
A naïve man like her
Naïve man like her
Is a man who
Has not been married before
Neither have children from
Any other woman
She however did not
Key into her sister’s
Disposition about whom she
Should be married to
Because of her believe
She believed her sister
Is kind of old
Fashioned she continued with
The man nonetheless telling
Him her people’s position
The man told her
That he would not
Disappoint her, you would
Have no cause to
Regret your action he says
There was a function
Which the man was
Invited to by his
Business partners and the
Man told the lady
The lady decided to
Follow the man to
The party however, contrary
To what they had
Hoped for before going
The party finished very
Late and she could not
Return home that day,
Thence she slept at
The man’s place
What she did not
Returning home that day
Generate troubles for her
And her spouse for
Her aunt contacted police
The man was apprehended
And put in the
Police custody and the
Charges levied against him
Were kidnapping ‘n’ Human trafficking
She did not like
What her sister did
She raised objections to
What was said, and
After much negotiations
The police released the
Man. When the man
Was released, the lady
Decided that she will
Not follow her sister home
She was persuaded to
Go with her sister
By the man, and she
Followed her sister home
Grumbling along the way
Everything said to her
By her sister did
Not pass the external
Pinna they never sink
Into her Cerebral cortex
After observing her sister’s
Disposition that she will
Not allow her to
Enjoy her relationship with
The man, she planned with him
They decide to leave
The town for far place
Without leaving trail of
Their movements and that
They did days after
Her sister still ins
No one knew their
Whereabout for years until
A friend of her
Aunt met with her
One day at a function
She was the one
Who told her sister
About her and the
Man. Her sister met
And reconciled with her
Few years after the
Reconciliation, the man gave
Up the ghost, leaving
The lady alone with
Her children to cater for.
