After the burial arrangements..it wasnt a big one tho, I followed my aunt to her village since we havent seen in a long time.we got there and I met my cousin..paternal cousin, we used to be close when we were Young until I came to Lagos and we lost contact I was so happy to see him..we ate and finally the day got dark and my aunt showed me where to sleep, the same room with her son..the room I slept in is a different room from where she slept..she kept my bed down and his bed beside mine..we talked for sometime till I finally slept He didnt stop until he finished..I stood up and went to the door crying..he immediately came to kneel begging me that it was the devil..I shouted and he closed my mouth saying I should not shout and the door was locked ..I sat down close to the door crying till morning..
My eyes were red and swollen..my aunt saw me and said I shouldnt cry I couldnt say anything to her..I was scared she might not believe me..and I didnt have a phone then to call my sister to tell her.i forced myself to act normal When I got back to Lagos..I called my elder sister to tell her about it..she was soo angry..she called my aunt to report.my aunt questioned the boy and he called me on phone in her presence asking me that why am I lying against him..I was surprised, I ended the call My uncles started calling up and down.. shouting at me, Calling me all sort of names that why didnt I tell my aunt when it happened, that why am I bringing it up now..and mind you..I told my sister about this few weeks after it happened..the boy finally agreed The rest of his life in prison but dont make the mistake I made..dont close your mouth speak out..dont protect any rapist..no matter who he or she is to you..even if they dont believe you..its better you speak out before they turn tables against you
