part 1

Tessa was an orphan with no motherly love...she was staying with her aunt who treats her like a slave....she does everything in the house and never rest from morning till night...even in the mid night while her aunt and children were sleeping she is still working....she sleeps in the kitchen in a house that her own father built....she doesn't go to school but her aunts children are always in school.... tessa has accepted her fate but her day never ended with tears flowing like spring of waters....she wished God would take her life so she could join her parents and atleast ask them why they hate her so much for leaving her that early
Tessa...Tessa.....

but aunty there is no transport and the market is far
what do I care...cant you walk... get out of my front before I leave Mark's on your body with beatings

she quickly ran out of the house and was walking with her tattered clothes... she was so deep in thoughts that she did not...
