"Get out and carry your possessed children along" the man who I used to call father said pushing my mother within my very own eyes just because she gave birth to females which are me and my sister "leave this compound immediately" my supposed dad shouted, my mom was still kneeling trying to beg or knock sense into him when he closed the door at our face that same door we used to lock and stay as a family is the same door that was used to separate this family, my sister tugged at my mom shirt I guessed I wasn't the only one disgusted with the display of stupidity that just happened a few minutes ago.
My mom stood up absentminded walking the street of Lagos was three confused ladies who had several options of places to go to but shame won't let my mom go to those places so we continue cruising the road of Lagos when a range rover almost knocked my mom down the back seat door open and a woman came down I know it is dark but I can swear she was a white woman she hurried to where my mom is and tried raising her which she succeeded surprisingly she moved and they went to the other side of the road to reduced the upcoming traffic but one thing I kinda noticed was that the woman was always looking at mom like she was familiar or knew her from somewhere.
"So where are you going," the woman said "actually we ha nowhere to go," my sister's confidence said making her receive a glare from mom "wait how come are you new here like me?" The woman who I have to come to realize that she isn't from Nigeria like us "we are not lost neither are we new here we were thrown from our house" I finally said after being quiet for so long "oh my God that's harsh what happen?" She asked "nothing happen we just seem to have nowhere to go" my mom Hilda said, "dear you can trust me please," the woman said carrying my mom's hand trying to comfort her by patting her fingers when she saw something in her hand which made her freeze "Hilda is that you" she suddenly said which made us shock how did she know my mom name.
"For years we have been looking for you Hilda, mum was always restless and dad was sad until he passed away leaving only me and mum," the woman said sniffing and shocking us all "well after the family visit to Ghana I was kidnapped and brought here unluckily for the kidnappers they were arrested and left me God being merciful and kind family found me and adopted me since sierra I miss you" mum said adding to the first shock, wait did she just say sierra as in sierra Jones no it can't be what if she was the one, no she can't, I was debating with myself whether she was sierra Jones or not "let's go to my house where we can talk better".
She said instructing the driver to take us to her house few minutes the driver puller over in front of a big mansion me and my sis was so surprised that our mouth was hanging open in awestruck she saw our reaction and chuckled, the place was colorful and full of light despite being late and that's was when I got a glimpse of her OMG it is Sierra Jones I guess my sister noticed it not able to control the excitement we started screaming when the Nigeria mother that we have shouted at us "are you okay at all will both of you shut up" we entered the beautiful mansion.
"Welcome to my humble abode for the meantime," Sierra said, "thank you ma," my mom said after moments of mom narrating everything the awful story finally ended "that's awful, doesn't he know that girls are the ones changing the world," she said enraged continuing "I have 5 girls and they have been part of the people changing the world" "if I may add your daughter are Samantha Sophia, Stella, Susan, and Silvia" confidence added "yes I guessed you heard of them, don't worry you can stay here all you like," she said.
My name is Joy and I was kicked out of my house at the age of 13.
