I’m a 300-level student, and my parents are late, so I have to fend for myself. (My mom di£d when I was younger, and I recently lost my dad.) I’ve been doing small jobs here and there, and I’m also a writer. But that doesn’t fetch me much — maybe because I don’t use the right channels. So I decided to try my hand at a small perfume business. I don’t have money at the moment, so I asked one of my aunts for help and she said I should meet her at her office. I did, and I explained my situation to her. That day was the worst day of my life. Not only did she not agree to assist me, saying that I need to find the money by myself,
but I was still outside when it was getting late because of traffic, and on my way home, I ran into a group of boys, about three of them. The area I live in is really dangerous and scary so I try not to be outside when it’s late, but it couldn’t be helped that day. They tried to rape me but I made sure I struggled with all my might. I made sure I shouted loud before they could cover my mouth. Nothing happened to me that night. They ran away and I raced to my house. I’m still terrified of that night. I haven’t told anyone about this yet. I’m just grateful to God for saving me that day!
