Matrimony
The siren wailed so loud and made Mercy jump on the chair that she was seated on,it was Friday school out and that was every leaners favourite time.Mercy was so happy that day,since she arrived at school she couldn't wait for the last class of the day to be dismissed so that she may go home to finally see the surprise that her mother promised her in the morning before she left for school.Mercy loved surprises,more especially when they are her mother's idea.She knew her mom was very good with lifting up her mood and amazing her in a very sweet way.She had a hint that the surprise had something to do with her meeting the successful fashion designer around their area and that meant she will have a chance to hand over her designs and get to have them as real desighned clothes.
Mercy was a 16 years old young lady who was a grade 10 leaner,very ambitious and showed potential to fulfil her dreams.She was so talented,very artistic,she wanted to be a successful fashion designer that would be recognised the entire Africa and out of the continent too.Her dreams were accompanied by the incredible work of her hands,she always drew very amazing garments and sometimes sewed them when every she gets pieces of unwanted clothes.Sometimes she would save her pocket money to buy new fabrics to sew new clothes.
Mercy rushed home,she couldn't even wait for her friends plus she was also starving.That is how she was,she couldn't stand a minute for anything when she was hungry.She knew she was going to have some good home cooked food when she gets home,in the morning she left her mother kneading dough and cow heels were already on the sunny spot outside the house defrosting,so she knew they were going to have dumbling and cow heels stew for luch and supper.She was extremely longing to taste her mother's palatable food,she knew she was the beast in the kitchen,you could swear that she is the one who came up with all the recipes.Even the neighbours knew her very well.Eveytime when they had special occasions they would ask her to come over and take over the kitchen with her excellent cooking skills.Everything that she touched with her hands turned out to be so magical.
She finally turned left from the cross road,her fast feet leading her home.She saw smoke rising to the sky from the back of their house and she knew she was going to be served a hot plate of her favourite food,just when she was about to push the gate she saw two cars parked outside the house then surprisingly she wondered who could it be.Anyway she continued walking to the house,a plate of food was what was roaming inside her head.Two steps inside the house her eyes glanced all over the place to the faces of eveybody seated on the couches.She saw four...
