I still remember that day as if it was yesterday; I had left my little paying job which was sustaining us and my life took a different angle. The other part of me, now my ex- was seven months pregnant. Whatever I tried didn't work. I could not afford food, pay rent or some basic commodities for a pregnant woman. I depended on my elder brother; two months later, a child was born- I was not able to raise maternity fee again my brother rescued me.
I had quit my job because of her behavior- hence the reason why I was reluctant to get another job. Situation forced me to do something, my efforts yielded nothing- while they needed more attention, especially financial, nothing worked. God knows what I went through.
During that test period, I received a call, a turning point- it changed everything; it was from my child's grand aunt who wanted them to go for a visit- I didn't hesitate, it was a reprieve. She was actually solving my problem, the only obstacle was money.
