The bitterness
Part1
Anita was a high school girl who was impregnated by accident, by an unfamiliar boy she never met, but yet still never saw again afterward, which made her parents very angry from the humiliation and gossiping of people, her parents despised her to the point where they throw her out of their house, she wandered around for days, without anyone from the village to help her with shelter or food. She hopelessly roamed around until she met a widow who helped her and took her to live with her. As her husband died early so she did not have any children and lived alone in her hut. They struggle together despite the village looks and the pointing everywhere they went, the widow turns a blind eye to all their alienation and gossip, she taught Anita she needed to know as a woman and as a young mother. Anita continue her life expecting her unborn as she already had the feeling of a mother she hoped and pray for the be born safely, weeks and months went by now she was nine months already heading to ten, and she may birth anytime.
Every morning she woke up she would think it was today, one sunny she woke up a little late and was sitting outside the widows basking in the sun and waiting for the widow to come back from the market.
