I adore this young lady with all my heart. She was living with me and taking a part-time HND in Accounting, which I was paying for. She was an orphan living with her auntie when I met her. The wife used to abuse her severely, and those of us in the neighbourhood were well aware of it. As for me, I was staying with my brother just down the street, and it was terrible how she was always weeping because her auntie was abusing her. My brother used to go and plead for her, but he became tired of it and simply disregarded it when it happened. I truly cared for her, so whenever she was transferred and I saw her outside, I would phone her and we would talk. She was 15 at the time, and I was 24. I may say she grew quickly since the body she had at that age was that of a mature lady.
It began as worry and sympathy, but I developed an affection for this girl and she was constantly on my mind. We grew quite close, and after she completed work at her location, she would come over to my side and talk. I was tempted several times, but I refrained from touching her because she was a juvenile. My brother spotted signs as well, and he informed me that if I impregnated her, he would simply evict me from his room since I was perching. The girl thereafter went to a boarding house. I got her a yam phone, and she started phoning me from school. Around that time, my brother went knocking on doors for his lover, and she arrived to stay in his single room self-containment with us, so I received the word and began seeking another place to stay. I started at a kiosk and worked my way up to a two-bedroom apartment through a small spare parts business.
So I was interested in her during her time at SHS. I told her before she left, and she claimed she was afraid of me and would think about it. However, she eventually agreed to my proposition. Her auntie never paid her any visits at school. I was the one who went there, and the school officials mistook me for her brother. I purchased her gifts, and she was overjoyed. I once went to a funeral near her school and informed her about it. She left class and crossed the street to meet me where I was. That’s when I broke her virginity. She was seventeen years old. She screamed so hard because she was frightened I would abandon her, and all of her friends had suffered the same fate from the males who shattered them. I told her that I would not abandon her and that my feelings for her were sincere. She was worried that the 9-year age difference would cause problems, and she had trust concerns because she thought she was simply a schoolgirl I was playing with.
She completed SHS when the time came. She achieved well in the WASSCE, but her auntie refused to assist her to pursue her studies. That’s when I went out and got her HND paperwork. Her auntie had also abandoned her. She didn’t fire her, but if she cooked and my girl wasn’t there, she didn’t leave any food for her. She and her children will be the only ones to eat. My child was continuously whining that the woman was trying to get rid of her but she couldn’t. I told her to come and stay with me because of the way she was moaning, and she did. She contacted her auntie and informed her that she had found a place. Her auntie picked up on the fact that she was seeing a man and told her that if she became pregnant, she would not be able to support her.
We had the pregnancy warning from both sides, so we were cautious. I’m not the sort that is constantly seeking ways to stretch her legs or do things with her. It happened, although not on a daily basis. My intention was to educate her so that she might become a better person. Fortunately, she completed the HND with honours. This girl clung to me as if I were her saviour, and she even thought of me as her father. Last year, I turned thirty. She celebrated her 21st birthday. I told her at the time that I wanted us to conduct a little engagement and then sign. My girl stated that she was not ready for marriage and that she didn’t know how she felt about me but couldn’t tell me because I had done so much for her. We had an altercation that night, and I hit her for the first time. She screamed till she fell asleep, and I felt terrible but didn’t know what to do. I awoke the next morning to find her not sleeping next to me on the bed.
I wanted to apologise to her and make amends. I sought everywhere for this girl. I returned to her auntie to inquire, but she was not present. I even reported her as missing. She didn’t use social media, and her phone was turned off. This tale concerning her disappearance took place a year ago. I was browsing Facebook a few weeks back when I came across her in the people you may know section. It was a new Facebook account she’d set up. I added her as a friend, but she never accepted it. Later, I double-checked and saw that she had blocked me. I made a new Facebook account with photos of a deceased buddy and sent her a friend request, which she accepted. We’ve been talking, and I’m in a lot of pain. My girl has met a wealthy man who looks after her and finds her a decent job. I tried to propose to her using that account, but she boldly stated that she is happy with her guy and is not interested. I was so upset that I dialled her number and showed her my face. She blocked me again when she realised it was me. How should I proceed? I think I’m going insane. Something bad will happen if I don’t marry this girl.
How do I reclaim her? She has changed drastically. She was always modest and caring to me. She was the one who was scared I would abandon her, yet look what has happened today. How do I hunt her down and locate her? I’m unable to sleep or work. I can’t stop thinking about her. Please assist me. Is there any way I can find her?
