I want to share this,so you learn some lessons from it
Is gonna be a long story,so grab a sit
I used to believe sometimes that most of the stories I read on social media here are just make-up stories until yesterday
So many, what if on my mind since yesterday
Please you need a cctv if you are living with someone,especially domestic staff,we are not praying for evil but wisdom is profitable to direct
A few months ago,the driver I worked with told me that he was going to bring his daughter to me so I could train her while she helped with the house chores.....she's 17 going to 18
It took me 1 month to tell my husband about it
Finally we agreed and he came with the girl and the mother
As a mother,I was ready to be patient with her until she learns and become a better person
Yesterday morning,I woke up by 4am,to prepare for school runs but decided not to bother her (I wanted to wake her up at the same time with my kids,so she can clean up the house before I leave )
I Went into the kitchen and met the kitchen door, and my back gate opened
I was a little scared cos the previous night at about 11pm,I was the one that put off my gen and locked my door,just because I didn't want to interrupt my security's sleep ooo ,so I had to off my gen myself
I was seriously worried, but
I immediately snapped out of the mood and continued at the kitchen (thinking i would ask her some questions about the door when she wakes up not knowing madam wasn't home)
I boiled water
Peeled plantain and boiled
Cut onions and tomatoes
I broke my egg and set aside
Put my pot on fire, ready to prepare my sauce
While I went into the dining to pick up my kids' eating items so I could sterilised
Only to hear a knock on my kitchen door.....that was about 12 minutes past 5am
Aha my heart skipped a bit ,cos I was wondering who will knock at my kitchen door at that time of the day(a thousand thought ran through my mind in a second,as I type,the fear is back,hmmm
With a bold voice (still shivering),I asked who was that, and she replied that she was the one
Aha,where are you coming from at this time of day? was the next thing that came out of mouth
When did you leave my house
What we're you doing outside,so many questions in a second
She lied that she went out just now to spread her duvet outside
Now,you say,I have been in this kitchen for 1 hour plus, and you said you went out now
Aunty, I didn't take the kitchen door,she said
Me:Where did you take?
I took the front entrance
Me to her:Go back and enter from the front door
I ran back to the room,picked up my phone, and called the father immediately to start coming to my place
Then, I called my husband so he could help me call my male neighbour upstairs to please come down
To cut the long story short,the girl has been sneeking out of my house at night into my next neighbour apartment (single guys that just packed in last month)
Since yesterday morning,I have been thinking
What if she was kil..led there and her body was dropped at my entrance,who would believe that she didn't sleep in my house?
What if these boys are Yahoo boys and she was used for rituals and maybe a few months after something happens to her in my house
What if she gets infected with a disease 🤔
So many 'what if'
But God saved me this time
