CHAPTER 2

I went straight to my father's company to try my luck; maybe he will help Mom. And I pray he does because I don't know what will happen to me or how my life will turn out if my mom is gone. Fortunately, I met him outside.

"Dad!" I called out with excitement. He turned and look at me with no emotion on his face.

"Who are you?"

"Dad it's me your daughter, Mimi" When I said that, the kind of hatred and irritation in his eyes made me lose hope.

"I have no daughter by that name and this will be the first and the last a low-life, stinky, shameless girl like you will call me your father again"

"Please Dad help me. Mom is dying. I need some money for her surgery. please don't say no"

"Sam!!"

"Sir?"

"Any day I see her around me again, you are fired"

"yes, sir. miss, leave "

"No....no.....no....Dad, please it's me your angel. Please Dad don't push me away. Help me, Dad." His guard drags me away.

"Please miss, don't make it difficult for me"

"Even you too Sam. You watched me grow, even when am still a baby..."

"Don't!! Go and don't come back again. Don't make it difficult for me"

What can I do? why is this world so cruel? My dad drove away splashing dirty water on me. With tears and pain in my heart, I strolled back to the hospital. I arrived at the ward my mom is, Doctor and three nurses checked her.

"Doctor, what happened? I was scared

" Am sorry Miss Mimi. if the surgery did not commence first thing tomorrow morning, am afraid will we lose her before sunset," he said with pity in his eyes.

"Oh, God! No! No!" I burst into tears

" Am sorry Miss Mimi. I wish I can help. am sorry"

The doctor leaves with his nurses, leaving me alone with my mom. looking at my mom, hoping for a miracle, a last-minute miracle. I believe it exists.

"Mi....mi...." I heard a faint voice.

"Mom you're awake" I moved closer to her

"Oh, Mimi. am sorry"

"No Mom, don't say that ok? You will live for me, Mom. God exists right? He's seeing us so he will hear us. I believe he will"
