A forced kiss for marriage

I looked at the radio house I had just walked out from and cursed them, its enough of their rejections already I was fed up with all these stupid rejections as though I was the only person with problems in this world, I hissed as I walked out of the building carrying my file, it has always been one story to another.

My name is Anastasia Christopher, and I consider myself to be cursed, first I do not have a father because he was wicked enough to allow himself die when I was barely 6 months old leaving I and my mother alone in this stingy world to carter for ourselves, I majored in English Language but of what use is it if I cannot get a common job to fed my mother with, I stared at the building of the radio house bitting my lips, the security man was staring at me wondering what was going on in my mind but I could only think of punching him in the face, I was trained up by my widowed single mother and lastly I am super single, Yes I am a single bird.

I dated Obinna back then in school and he disvirgined me promising me heaven on earth and when He got tired of me he walked out of my life without any sign, then William came along and had the guts to cheat on me with my best friend, I was still thinking about my life when my phone rang and I could see it was my mom calling "mummy" I said as I picked up "Nne how far, any show yet?" she asked me "Nothing at all mummy, me I'm tired oh" I said into the phone, "come home ok, God will do his work" She said and I put my phone back in my purse and stood up from the place I sat.

I was about to cross over to the bus stop when a car drove past me fast almost hitting me "this one is mad o" I said cleaning the water he splashed on me with my handkerchief, He reversed when I was doing that and got down from his car "I'm so sorry Miss, that wasn't intentional" he said and I hissed "all of you that have cars just feel its normal to go on insulting people, look at what you did now" I said not looking at him, "because you feel you are rich, you can stupidly drive and splash water on anybody you feel, Oga please go" I said to him "But I said sorry" was all he could say "so what, sorry would dry up my trouser right? please go before I scream and tell people you want to kidnap me" He only shook his head and walked back to his car and started it, I was angry and now he just made sure I was more angry.

I boarded a bus going back to my house, and kept on lamenting about how my life would have been if i had a father, I was beautiful, yet not successful, I was intelligent yet without a job my life was the most unfair thing right now, I dropped at my bus stop and collected my change from the conductor. I walked down to my house not bothering to even greet anyone sitting outside because they always gossiped and laughed at me calling me a graduate without a cap. I walked into the house and saw my mother selecting beans "mummy good evening" I greeted her dropping my purse and file and going into the kitchen to get water to drink, "welcome" was all she said I knew she was fed up of taking care of me but couldn't say so, I worked in a fancy restaurant at least I made little cash from there. Lifting my purse up I took up my file and went into the room to change.
