I tried to adjust my eyes to the brightness of the room on waking up from my slumber
I looked around and discovered I was in a hospital.
What am I doing here?
Everywhere was quiet, so quiet that one could hear the dropping sound of a pin.
"Hello, anybody here?" After saying that, sounds of an approaching footsteps could be heard
"Wow, you are awake" said the female doctor who just walked in
"Of course am awake, what am I doing here?" I asked but she ignored my question and started checking me up to see if am okay
Minutes later, she finished and excused herself without answering my question
When she left, I tried to remember everything that happened but my mind was completely blank. I seem to have lost some of my memories of the recent happenings
I was still lost in my own thought when my dad and my paternal aunty rushed in. They looked relieved on seeing me
I noticed my dad wasn't looking okay
He looked as though he had been deprived of sleep for ages.
I soon started hearing sobs and that was when I got my tongue
"Why are you all crying?" I asked surprised at their sudden behavior
Everyone were behaving strange to me.
Even I myself feel weird.
"O my God baby are you ok? you kept us worried....." They kept saying but I just looked at them confused
I kept them worried?
"I don't understand, what do you all mean?" Before they could answer, I realized my mom wasn't with them so I asked "where is my mom?"
They looked at themselves and looked back at me, no words could be formed in their mouths
Looking at them with curiosity, I waited for them to tell me where my mom was but they kept mute.
That was when reality struck me. Events from the past months came rushing in like a flowing water
Omg! Mom? My look of surprise immediately turned to that of hatred.
It was now their turn to look at me with surprise. They seemed to have been surprised at my sudden change of reaction.
I hate my mother. I hate her. She's not worthy of being called a mother. She now look more of a monster than a mother to me
Things happened this past 6 months. Many things you wouldn't imagine
Even I myself still find it hard to believe it. I would not have ever believed if I didn't experience this myself.
Who am I? Why am I so connected to many things? Am I just Clara James or there is something more to that?
Let's travel down these past 6 months of my life
