THE CIRCLE OF LIFE
Rebecca posts a photo of herself on
Facebook.
A hundred men commented, all
flattering her. She ignores their compliments
and silently hopes that she'll get a
notification informing her that Victor has
commented on her photo.
Victor is on the phone, trying desperately to
get through to Sarah...his love. He has called
her fifteen times already, but she has not
answered. His heart pounds
substance.
Sarah is in Tom's house, doing the dishes.
She intentionally ignores Victor's calls. She
doesn't want to deal with the drama of lying
about her location.
Tom is at the ATM. He has to transfer funds
to Mariah. She had asked him for money to
buy a new phone. He had promised to send
it that afternoon. He can't afford to look bad
before his crush. He told Sarah he had to get
something from his boss, so he left her at
his place.
Mariah is on the phone with Uche. She's
trying to calm him down. He told her he
needed some money to complete his little
brother's hospital bill. She is assuring him
that she'll get some money shortly, and send
it to him. She was waiting for Tom to
transfer the money.
Uche's palms are sweaty.
His heart is racing.His mind is clouded with thoughts. How
could he not have used protection, he
thought to himself. He has to send the
money to Vanessa so she could go ahead
and have the abortion. He just got off the
phone with Mariah, and she promised to
send the money shortly.
Vanessa is slipping into depression. She is
sitting in the hospital restroom staring at
the poison she's holding.
a week. Now she's pregnant for another
man. She understands her church will have
to run a pregnancy test in a few days. Her
fiancé had not touched her in months. How
could she explain her way out of this mess.
She thinks of Sule, her fiancé. Then she
thinks of her mother, and her head almost
explodes from pain. Uche has to send the
money or she'll end her life, she thought to
herself.
It's been five minutes since Sule wrote "My
beautiful princess. Looking astonishingly
beautiful" on Rebecca's photo on Facebook
