💢BORN FROM MADNESS 💢 EPISODE 1💢
I was given birth to and raised by a mad woman. Everyone in my street made fun of me, even though I wasn't mentally ill like my mom.
Although my mom was mentally ill but she was very beautiful even though she is covered with dirt, her beauty was still glamouring.
No one in our locality ever knew who impregnated my mom. When I turned six years, a woman took me to a school and got me admissioned. She also bought books, school uniforms and some other school material.
When I turned 16, a woman who has always been coming to gift I and my mom food l, called me and suggested I look for a job to do, so as to assist feed and get me out of the dump.
I accepted her advice and started job hunting. I was searching for a part time job so as to work and go to school.
I only had one friend as of this time and he will join me in the search for a job. We found a couple of vacancies but no one would accept me because they all know about my background.
One day while I was coming back from school, again I saw her standing by my mom with some items in a bag. I quickly rushed to her and gave her a hug.
"Welcome ma" I greeted.
"Good day Richard how are you?" She greeted back.
"Am fine ma" I answered.
"Eeh .... Richard have you found a job yet ?" She asked with facial expressions as she laid her hands upon my shoulders.
"No.... people are rejecting me because my mom is mentally ill and they detest me" I answered with tears filled eyes.
"Would you love to go to Lagos and work in a house where by you will be fed and be paid also?"
Immediately I jumped up of joy as I knew Lagos as a big city and the job was a good job as been recommended by her. Sooner my smiles faded away from my face.
"What is the problem Richard? " She asked after seeing I've lost interest in the offer.
"Who would take care of my mom, I can't leave her all by herself, she'll die of hunger?"
Don't worry I promise to take care of your mummy haven't I been trying.
