A Person Change
..

Ever since we started dating for years we never fight,and we were always..I told myself that as a man i have to marry to her and we got married.I didn't have a stable job she understood,i remember that day she told me she's pregnant,she carried twins and soon she'll give.My head was spinning and i see that I'll go crazy because at work things ain't going well..I kept on telling i shouldn't doubt I'm suppose to be a father and i went with a flow.I'll forget 2009 around pass 7 to eight when i get to work i was called at the reception same i got a call saying my wife gave,when i get to the reception they said I'm fired.
Then I'm so stressed and I don't have enough money..I took a taxi going back to Pietermaritzburg to see my children but when i arrived i went to check in a Ward she was on.When i ger there the nurses said gat few hours she escaped and the most painful part she left the child.When i get to the children i got a letter saying "Forgive me those children are not yours n when you done reading this letter please rush to your house",i had to do.It all happened in one day,when i get to my house there she was hanging on the roof structure.I took her off the rope without knowing her cousin was coming,when her cousin gets there she called police and say she found me on top of my wife i raped her and i kill her.

First week in prison i was so scared knowing well that if they come closer I'll peer on my pant.But i choose a path n i get used to things there.Time went on i spent 18 years inside the prison.I said a small prayer "Today I'll be released my God,please be with me when i start my new life".After few months i got a job from one of the good paying companies,times went on i got promoted,i got money and my own car but I can't ignore i need someone who i can live with, someone who'd be my hope and heal those words in my heart.The next day i heard a knock on my door,when i opened i got shocked... It's Ammy my wife's cousin, she's was crying asking for forgive.It was too late and Ammy doesn't leave,she said i must let her in she'll tell me her secret i let her in.She took off her clothes, she started to kiss me until i fall for her,yes we had fun same times she was on my heart we spoke and life and what the future lies ahead,she was sleeping on my chest and rubbing my beard.Deep inside I'm telling myself I'll marry Ammy because i had everything,money is full inside the safe but no one to spend forever with the i went to toilet,i left her with everything cause i trust her.When i came out of the toilet i was hitted by a pan in my head,she took the safe and ran out,she started to scream she had her panty only shouting outside saying I'm raping her the whole community came out started to bit me and they were never certisfied they burn me with a tyre.

I tried to stood up and run away from the community but they manage to make me fall,i fell on a teen and we both got burned and same time the ambulances came to help us,the took us to the hospital.When we gat there they said that teen i was with died.I spent weeks at the hospital then i was released,i was paralyzed lucky i saw my mother's friend who took me to her house and take care of me.Time went on things changed,my mother's friend wasn't treating me well,at that point her children are using my disability money then someday i went to my house,i took out paraffin and a lighter,i poured it all over my body and turn the lighter on.Same time i heard a knock then i said come in.It's a young girl,she said "i found out that you're my dad i went to doctor Caleb to check my blood and your blood and they matched..I lived in Soweto where's Isabella my sister?"...I turned on the lighter and say God accept my soul.She stopped me,crying.I said I'm sorry my child I'm the one who killed your sister we got burned when the community members were bitting me to death.Challete is your mother, she you're not my children.I don't know what i did wrong or my biggest mistake is to trust a person.
