WALL FLOWER : BROKEN

-

Hello followers.. How are you enjoying the week so far?
Ready for the elections?? I hope you have your PVC though..
Well let's see what we have here...
          BROKEN
(Recap)
I was the kid parents used as an example of intelligence, calmness and beauty all in one, but still... I wasn't a happy child.
It all started when I was actually able to decipher between right and wrong (which was quite early though)..

I remember my Mama (as I usually called my granny) calling me into her room one day. I think I was about 5 years old.
It wasn't an unusual thing but one major factor that stood out was how furious she was looking that day (I was a very perceptive child).
I hugged her but she side stepped and that's when I knew something wasn't right.
She started
"Mummy, who's your father?"
I replied "Papa" (as per my grandpa).
She smiled in that smug way of hers and told me to never ever forget "Papa is the only father you have".
As a very curious child I asked her, "But if Papa is my Dad, why aren't you my mum?"
She stopped pacing for a while and fixed me with that hard stare of hers and then told me to go and play with my toys.
I happily left her room and went to pick up my very very big toy bag (I had an uncle who sold them, so I was very spoilt with lots of toys).
While playing I couldn't help but wonder why even if I knew who my mum was, I still called my grandma 'Mama' and my mum 'Aunty'.
"Well, I'll have to ask Mama later" I mused silently.
It didn't take long and my mum came home from work with lots of goodies for me (as usual) but she wasn't looking too good either.

I never knew that was the day my problems actually.

I took the package, went in with her bit got sent to the dining to eat what she brought.
The next day, my mum travelled. I was told she went for her maternity leave as she was pregnant with my brother.
On the 15th of February (making it 3 months my mum had stayed at the village) we received news that she lost the baby.
All hell let loose. Nobody told me a thing but I heard my grandma telling someone on phone that she didn't have anyway to explain to me that I'd lost my brother.
I ran into my room and when she came to check up on me I pretended to be asleep. When she left, I cried. I cried until I finally fell asleep.
I never knew that was just a preparation for more tears to come.

Still finding it interesting??
Let me know in the comments section..
Do have a wonderful day/week.
Lots of love from me to you....

LIFE AS IT IS- VOWS

Vow's When he approached home, he was full of remorse. All he felt within him was sadness. And apologies, all he had constructed on his way back home. He was going to start with the gift he had bought and then go down on his knees. He would plead until she forgave him and this time he promised himself, this time things would be alright. He opened the door with care. Moving quietly, not doing anything that would disturb her. When he entered, it was silent. Their house had never been silent. It was either she was cooking while humming to herself or listening to her favorite artists. Songs of Lana Del Rey and Halsey. Most times she would sing along and one couldn't help but feel the longing in her voice. Those times, he had felt sobered. Not knowing how to help, not matter how much he had tried. This time it was not what he expected, and even though he didn't want to admit it to himself, it felt peaceful. Once upon a time, their life had been like a fairy tale. N...

Transmission system Transmission System Transmission system is used in motor vehicles to supply the output of the internal combustion engine to the drive wheels. The transmission reduces the higher engine speed to the slower wheel speed, increasing torque in the process. Transmission system consist of Clutch assembly Gear box assembly (Transmission case assembly) Propeller shaft Clutch system The clutch assembly interrupts the power flow between the engine and the transmission when the vehicle is brought to a stop with the engine running. and when shifting gears. It is a mechanical device that transfers all power from the engine into the transmission of a vehicle. Without a properly operating clutch, power transfer and gear shifting would be very difficult. The clutch is located between the engine flywheel and the transmission Functions of Clutch (a) To disconnect the engine power from the gear box as required.

FASHION TABLE WITH STEPHANIE: HOW TO TAKE ACCURATE BASIC MEASUREMENTS

 HOW TO TAKE ACCURATE BASIC MEASUREMENTS  So last week when talking on how to get the perfect fit, the first thing on our list was "taking accurate measurements". Being the nice and helpful person I am, I've taken the time out to list the basic measurements we need for a simple dress and how to take these measurements accurately. Ideally, you should be measured wearing only your undergarments.  However, a close-fitting clothing will be fine.  Do NOT measure yourself or a client that's wearing jeans, sweats, or other bulky clothing.  It DOES make a difference fam. The body is made of soft tissue, so it can be a bit difficult to know exactly how tight to pull the tape around the body. The tape should be a bit snug, but not tight - it should not "dig in" or make an indentation in the body.  It should not be loose, either!  Just wrap the tape around the area of the body being measured and hold it in place.  You should be able to put a finger behind th...
