Chapter 6

Whew, I felt so much pity for this girl. I stood up and run my fingers through my hair as I digested the information.

She continued her ordeal;

"I agreed to follow this woman because I knew how my dad had toiled to get this house and where would we sleep if this woman took it away.

My mother wept bitterly but this woman assured her I will be set free after I had settled all the debt by working for her.

Little did I know this woman was a pimp.

Hmm, She brought me to the city a week ago and introduced me to other girls who were suffering the same fate as myself

She then handed me over to our leader who psyched and trained me on how to seduce, attract, walk and please a man."

"Since coming here I've seen girls tortured, beaten and raped because they were being stubborn. The Hajia told me I would suffer the same fate if I disrespected her and didn't satisfy her customers well. She summoned me in her presence this morning saying that my grace period was over and tonight I will start working."

After narrating her story, I was speechless and didn't know what to say. It was almost 4 am at this time and I had two more hours left to spend with her

Peter, Peter, he was the cause of this mess I had found myself. Should I wait for the two hours to pass and leave the room, Should I help this girl. I was torn apart thinking about my next move.

After some minutes I concluded I was going to help her.

Why? Because I had the capability to help and even God would judge me if failed to do the right thing.

"I will help you". I finally spoke up and I saw a ray of hope in her eyes.
