IN The DARK (A Story Of Love, Betrayal And Survival) - Season 1 - Episode 53

KELVIN’S MOM
I wept out of my father
house with the sorrow of my
brother’s death and the
slavery i was about to start.
I cursed poverty and
promised my parents to come
back rich and powerful ( a
promise i could never fulfil
till they passed on).

I started to work with my
new boss and her brutality
was out of this world.

Though we lived in the same
locality, i could not visit my
parent, it was a life i never
wish for my enemy.

The commissioner was
absent when i was brought
in but when he returned a
week later he was suprised
to see a new maid. He got
furious when he found out i
was forcefully taken from my
parents just because of ten
thousand naira. He had a
loud exchange of words with
his wife and he finally said i
should be taken back to my
family. I happily went into my
room to pack my bags but i
was stopped by one of the
police men on my way. He
asked why i was happy and
after telling him, he sighed
and said “young girl i am
advising you because i take
you as a daughter. I will
advice you to tell the boss
that you want to remain here
because if you leave. Madam
will find you and waste you” I
frooze immediately, i did not
want to get killed so i
decided to stay.I went back
to the commissioner and I
told him i would stay and pay
my family debt. He smiled at
me and promised to treat me
like the child he never had
because of my bravery.

That was how i started my
slavery under a kindhearted
commissioner and a wicked
wife. Life was filled with ups
and down”.
