A story by Jochrine Kunda 

 

NARRATED

Linda blinked and shook her head countless times then she gave it a deep thought and took her phone dialling her friend

Linda: Veronica, bring the clothes and make up artists

Veronica: we’re almost there

Linda: great, you know the dress code right?

Veronica: how couldn’t I? when I supply your girls with clothes

Linda: alright hurry (she hang up)

She left Madalitso alone in the bedroom wondering what would happen next. Veronica arrived and the artists were told to do their thing on Madalitso and Tapiwa, when they were done they were given clothes to wear and they looked like they had nothing on. They were taken to the cars with bags containing new clothes then Taonga ran to them

Taonga: hey Madalitso hope you’re good cause you look awesome. Wait!!! what happened to grandma’s teachings about morals? Did they get buried together with her corpse?

She chuckled then Madalitso slapped her twice unexpectedly

Madalitso: you speak rubbish about her again, I’ll strangle you to death

Linda: unfortunately you won’t have the chance to do so coz your time is up

Taonga: mom, will you just let her be after she slapped me?

Linda: please not now, I’ve got a lot going on and got no time to deal with your drama

Taonga: I hate you, you’re good for nothing

Linda got angry and charged towards her then smashed Taonga’s head hard on the car door then left her on the ground crying and sulking

They drove off and they was silence filled in the car until Michael spoke

Michael: you’re slowly paying for your sins (chuckling)

Linda: Shut up Michael, I’m never paying for anything

Michael: your daughter is such a spoilt brat, I wonder who would sacrifice himself to be her dad coz if it were me I would have taken her for this job you’re taking these poor things for

Linda: who’s side are you on, idiot?

Michael: firstly, you are the idiot here and there’s nothing about taking sides your daughter is the best candidate for this and I’m sure you know it

It was quiet again then they reached the brothel at 18:00. It was a beautiful place and it had already started being filled, the security ordered people to give way for Linda as she walked in with Michael, Veronica and the girls and people couldn’t stop cheering which made Linda feel so majestic because it was what she had always wanted. The gents including ladies and girls kept touching Madalitso and Tapiwa on inappropriate parts as they walked following Linda, they were taken to a bedroom and locked there with two men guarding at the door then Linda, Veronica and Michael headed to the boardroom where there were gentlemen of different ages

Linda took her seat after greeting them all

Linda: gentlemen, I stick to my word and I’ve got what I promised (smiling)

Linda saw Robert’s face among the gentlemen seated and she she immediately started sweating and her heart pounded fast, she saw him remove a gun and install a silencer on it

“No this can’t be,” Linda kept whispering those words to herself then someone shook her and she screamed

Michael: take a glass of water and calm down, the girls have been brought in

She looked at the same man again and it wasn’t Robert, the man looked at her as if she was insane, she got up inspecting the whole room but didn’t see Robert then she took her seat drawing in a deep breath

Linda: I’m sorry about that, this is the offer I was talking about

She walked to Madalitso and Tapiwa who wore matching bras and thong and the gents applauded, Madalitso’s tears couldn’t stop falling and had a lot of thoughts going on in her mind. Linda made them turn and encouraged the gents to drop huge offers if they wanted her

Linda: you see this one crying? she’s nervous because she’s fresh meat so huge offers for her

They cheered and one man dropped the biggest offer then three other more said they’d be next

Madalitso: Linda, God will punish you for your evil deeds………

Linda: blah, blah, blah haven’t you noticed that he’s punishing you instead?

They were taken back to the bedroom and offered food and Madalitso cried in Tapiwa’s arms

Madalitso: why is this happening to me? I thought she was supposed to be my protector since she’s my aunt and only guardian I’ve got

Tapiwa: Madalitso, know that blood only makes you related but loyalty makes you family, we don’t know what’s coming ahead but I want you to know that she killed your grandma

Madalitso: WHAT (yelling)

Tapiwa: mxm, stop this screaming saga it won’t take you anywhere, watch the video I gave you at your spare time so you can scream alone coz I don’t want to be caught

Linda walked in with a fierce, ugly looking, old man and took Tapiwa to another

Tapiwa: enjoy yourself Mr, do.anything except ki*ll her if she troubles you

She blew Madalitso a kiss then closed the door and left…….

“somebody wake me up from this ugly nightmare, grandma please help me,” I said to myself as that ugly creature kept approaching me and I moved backwards. I reached the wall and had nowhere to go to and he had a smirk on his face, I could see that be was ready to attack so I let him approach me then then threw my hardest punch and hit his nose then he sank to the ground groaning in pain. I jumped on the bed then quickly headed to the door and got out but the guards at the door caught me and took me back inside then locked the door, the ugly creature slapped me hard across my face and strangled my neck saying he couldn’t waste his money for nothing and seconds later Linda walked in looking angry and ordered the guards to tie my hands to the bed and she slapped me several times and spat on my face. I remembered what grandma said in my dream about acceptance, I had to accept that I was going to be a prostitute something I never thought of all my life and that Linda couldn’t be the guardian angel I’d wished her to be. I was on my own or was I? Grandma said I had to put God first so I closed my eyes and said a silent prayer where I asked God to forgive me for the sin I was to commit, to protect me from any harm including diseases I was to contract, to help me find a way out of that place but most of all to forgive Linda and let her repent. Something landed on my stomach and the pain I felt made me open my eyes, the man had whipped me with his belt and I cried silently then he penetrated me and I felt like I was tearing and screamed as be kept whipping me, as if that was not enough he cum on my face and spat then left. I had bruises all over my body and after a few minutes Linda walked in with another man and left, he did the same then I was untied and felt like dirt. I took a long shower scrubbing myself and crying, when I was done I was given a pair of bum shorts and bra then Linda ordered me go go downstairs and serve clients because I might be lucky, I went there and people cheered but most girls eyed me and said I was bringing their market down, I could even hear some insulting me. I felt arms wrapped around me and I knew it was Tapiwa, she promised to always be there for me

Three years passed and I hadn’t heard from Peter and his mother because I had no form of communication, Hector and Saint were also quiet but I once overheard Tsonga telling her mother that they were all offered scholarships to study abroad so they weren’t in the country and all the hope I had was lost…..
