2 Prostitution Was My Only Option

This is not the kind of life I really want for my self. although people will not understand me nor matter how I try to see reason with them concerning my way of life. Some parents will shamelessly bring their daughter's for me to teach them how I make my money imagine.

Sometimes I wonder if prostitution is really a good way of life to some other people out there." because I see no reason why a parent in his right sense will bring her child for me to teach them the way of prostitution all in the name of making money for them in return.

Sometimes I will even try to advise the mothers not to allow their children to take such part in life, but they will think am trying to be proud and that I don't want to help them.

I don't blame them it's because they don't know the kind of risk attached to prostitution. For someone to be a prostitute I believe it should be by the people choices and not been forced upon.

Some of this women want their children to become prostitute and it's not even the children wishes to become that which they want them to become.

They don't even care to know my story. They all think that I Annabelle just wake up one day and decided to become a prostitute.

To be sincere while growing up I never for once think that my life will one day turn out like this.

I mean prostitution is not something anybody will be proud of." So sometimes I feel very ashamed of myself for being a prostitute.

While other parents out there are trying to push their own fresh and blood out there to do prostitution in the name of so call money.

I know that money is everything, I mean money is good because without money we cannot survive the hardship of this world." We need money to buy literally everything we need in our daily life.

Having a desire for money is good, but trying to ruined someone's else's life in the name of making money is very evil and wick.

I bet you those people you think you are helping now, will blame you for ruining their life in the future.

So trading someone else's happy for money is a very disspeakable act. So most times when I see family having issues with one another, I don't blame them because I don't know the history behind their hatred for each other.

Annabelle never wish to be a prostitute but the hardship in the land, i mean in this country Nigeria where I come from, hunger Will make anyone go crazy.

Nigeria is not like American where people get paid per hour for their service. for anyone to survive in this country Nigeria you have to be very hard-working because in this country they get people fired for no good reason and with your money in their hands, and funny enough they get away with it.

Becoming a prostitute was my choice, nobody forced it upon me and nobody introduced it to me. I was born and bought up in a poor home. I am the first child of my parents, I have one younger sister.

My dad died when I was just eight years old." While my sister Abigail was only five. My uncle chased my mother out of my father's house.

Since she couldn't bear their brother a male child, so they said base on traditional my mother have no right to my father's property.

Although my father didn't have much but at least he has a house some landed property, he recently bought under I and my sister's name before he passed on. But my father's never knew what the enemy has in stock for him.

if my father's was still alive non-of this nonsense would've happened. So to cut the long story short.

My mother and I were chased out of the house and so my mother took me to her parental home and explained everything to my grandfather.

My grandfather was a good man so he took my mother his two grandchildren in and tell my mother not to worry that everything will be okay.

Life became so unbearable for me and my mother we started go clearing people farm land in exchange for money

My mother use the small money we have been able to raise to start garri business, from garri she opens a small provision shop where we sell all kinds of food items.

So during Christmas my Aunt who happened to be my mother junior sister who reside in Lagos with her husband came visiting. My mother was very happy to see her, but for me I wasn't really happy.

And the reason I don't like her is obvious, because I don't know her, and I have never met her before.
