And perceiving how wonderful and angelic you’ve always been to me, I thought the idea of you being the sister I never had could be the best way to go but my sentiments and emotions always betray my conscience, leaving me with no better option than to say I love you and sincerely want you to be my fiancée. Please, do you love me?” {See the hustle I had to go through just to deliver these three-letter words “I love you”. Never mind, let’s continue with the next chapter of the story.}

THE WOES OF A WOMAN

PROLOGUE

At this time, I don’t really know my strength but just what I need is just one slot to run my dream into reality, fit into my personality and become my own success. A life I pray for, a dream I anticipate, an opportunity I hope for.

Born twins, a boy and a girl; my first opportunity slipped by as I never saw the handsome face of a brother. Raised by a woman of virtue, I embraced the curse of single parenting. My first light of the day was when I smiled in the midst of strange people, hearing strange and distant voices but what I remember is the joy of a mother cuddling me up in the hospital amidst cheers and well-wishes after a safe delivery by professional medical personnel.

{As I rest on the same sick bed on which my mother died, I read out the chapters of my life.}
