Ever since the incident, I’ve never felt the same and my life is not normal. I just became so down and not participated in conversations with my surroundings. The things you did to me, I blame myself, I blame God but the truth is it is all your fault. You may be going to jail but know that you have broken me. I didn’t live like a normal teenager and part of me has been taken away.
You took away my precious gift and sometimes I just ask myself If I will ever live a normal life because what you did to me, really affected me. I hardly sleep at night because sometimes I have dreams of you raping me and it is very heart-breaking that I will never be able to be proud of myself because I feel like I am nothing. You really broke my heart and now I can’t even trust anyone and trust is very important but you took that away from me.
You took away my happiness and I can be happy now but later I will get flashbacks that will never go away. I will be having them until the end of my life. I wish that you could put yourself in my shoes and feel the sadness in me right now.
Malume you have broken me deeply and I cant put everything that I am feeling into writing but my heart is bleeding of anger sadness and brokenness. I trusted you and treated you like my father. When I cry at night I ask myself what did I ever do for you to come and rape me. I may not be happy as I used to be before but I want you to ask yourself every night why is it that you raped your own niece? Why did you break your niece’s heart? I wanted you to treat me like a daughter but didn’t.
