'A strong girl isn't one who doesn't cry, but is one who cries but picks up the sword and fights again'😔😔

There's a picture of Suzie😊. I'll update the cast as the story goes on.



**************************

"Damn it! ",I swore as I raised ruby from the baby cot.

"Suzie, mind your language around the baby"my mom shouted from the kitchen.

"She peed in her cot!! ", I shouted back,my irritation obvious in my voice.

"She's your daughter, you have to tolerate her. You did worse when you were little"she said, smiling as she appeared at the entrance to my room.

Yeah, you heard it right. Ruby is my daughter. You might be wondering how and why a fifteen year old girl has a baby.

Well, shit happened.

My name is Susan Williams and i'm fifteen years old. I'm mixed. My mom is Nigerian while my dad is american. I used to have a perfect life in the states, but things changed when I got pregnant.

Don't judge me yet...

I had a boyfriend back in the united states, Ryan. I used to think he was the best boyfriend in the world, until he suddenly asked me for sex. There was no way I was going to lose my virginity at fourteen, I wasn't ready for that. I refused, it caused a rift between us but eventually, things became normal again, I thought.

Then one day he invited me over to his place. It wasn't the first time, so I didn't suspect a thing, not knowing it was a trap. To cut the long story short,he drugged me, and raped me.

I was shattered, heartbroken and disgusted at myself. I became withdrawn and quiet. I had several nightmares and panic attacks, I was broken. I couldn't give answers to the unending questions, I just didn't find it in me to tell my mom that Ryan raped me.

When I discovered I was pregnant,my heart broke into many more pieces. I stopped going to school when I couldn't face the questioning looks and judgemental opinions. I couldn't possibly tell them that I was pregnant.

My mom thought that a change in environment would help me. I decided to give it a try and I did. My mom grew up in Nigeria, so settling in was not a problem.

That's how I found myself in Nigeria. Sad story, right?

"Here, give her to me"mum said, stretching her hands towards ruby.

"Thank You"I said, handing ruby to her.

"Let's get you cleaned up"she said to ruby as she went into the bathroom.

"Mum i'm tired. I can't even have my room to myself. I don't sleep at night cuz ruby's always crying."I whined collapsing onto my reading chair.

"No one told you to have a stupid boyfriend, so deal with it"mum said, obviously mocking me.

"Mum, really?!, are you judging me?"

"Nope, why would I? "

"Better"I scoffed under my breath.

"I heard you"

I sighed.
"Look Suzie, you're a mother now... "

"A fifteen year old mother"I cut in, rolling my eyes.

"Yeah I know, you just have to relax. I know its hard for you, just endure it and you'll see the joy of being a mother"

"I see no joy in changing diapers"

"You'll understand what I'm telling you later."

"Yeah,right."

"I'll take care of ruby tonight, now go to bed. You're going to school tomorrow"

"Ugghhh... Can't I just take care of ruby at home? "I groaned.

I hate school. What I hate more is the fact that I'm starting a new school, in Nigeria. How was I ever going to fit in?! Nigerians are quite nice, so making friends wouldn't be a problem, right?

"Shush... Take a shower and go to bed."she said, pushing me to the bathroom.

"Okay okay, I'm going"

"Goodnight baby"she said, planting a kiss on my forehead.

"Eeew.. Don't call me that. I'm not a child anymore"

"You'll remain my baby forever. Don't argue."

"Yeah yeah... Goodnight"
