I sat down with my pitiful father holding his hand. He asked me who my twin was and how I found her. When we started having terrible things in the house even my dreams increased.  I lied I could see my weeping sister and I decided to look into my mom's past. I said looking at him . She lives in the village and I met her once. Why didn't you tell me ,he asked a line of concern drawing in his face and why didn't you bring her to me . I know I did wrong but if she's there you're all my children.  She hates you so much . I said holding his hand so tight.  Yes even if his an evil man but his our dad. He has been there for me all my life. 

Just then police officers came in and took him for interrogation.  I cried begging them to let my dad go. Don't worry princess am willing to correct my wrongs. He said . Go get your sister I will wait for you tomorrow  He added before being taken away. I cried and regretted what I have caused my dad. I saw imara at the balcon looking down with a smiling face. 

I went up to where she was. I hope you have seen what just happened. She didn't answer neither act like she heard what I just said. I know you hate him so much but this is enough.  He is an evil but his dad

. My loving who nurtured me to be who I am now. Don't you feel sorry for him . Imara his your dad as well and ....

Before I could complete my words she stood up before ,her eyes sparkling with hate and anger and in a very aggressive voice she said, his your father not mine. He killed my joy, my happiness and the only thing that made my life worth living. He will never be my father not untill he has paid for all his wrongdoings". With that she entered the house straight into the bedroom. 

I hate seeing the people I love suffer because of me. I really love immy but I can't give up now. Every time I remember the life of my mom. She had constant nightmares and her husband could always comfort her. After the death of my stepfather,  mom's condition worsened she had nightmares every night and could wake-up screaming and calling for help. She never told me anything but one day I insisted because I wanted to help her . She told me she got an accident which took away everything she had living her with a lifeless body.

I thought it was an accident but I was wrong. Mom grew older each day and paler. Her nightmares freaked me out and I could always pray for her. I hated myself and blamed myself for not doing anything about mom's situation.  I did everything I heard of that drives away nightmares but all in vain. She looked two times older than her real age. My mom hated the city so much and she always Saud its because of the accident.  She told me she left the city when I was a month old and up to her death she never stepped her foot in the city again. 

She was a graduate who had good qualifications but she decided to do her own farming.  She could have gotten a job and helped me in my studies. I gave up on education because they couldn't afford it anymore. Maybe if she had  a job she could have supported me . I know his my dad and yes I can't get a new dad but he inflicted pain to the people who mean the world to me. 

My stepfather was my dad and he loved me more than anything.  I knew he wasn't my biological father but he supported me physically, financially, he believed in me, and it was after his death that I couldn't go to school anymore.  He was my father and in my heart his still my dad. Tears rolled down my eyes as immy sat next to me. I quickly wiped them off. I must be a strong woman and I must watch this man pay for all the pain she caused to mom. I said to myself.  Mummy told me how he had told her to get me from the village. Am not ready to show myself to him as me I said.  

Am not ready to call him "dad" because to me his the monster that snatched many people's happiness including mom. To you he means a lot and to me mom meant the world. He wanted to kill my man and you want me to stand on my two's to call him dad. No immy am sorry but I won't do that. 

The company's income was falling rapidly and it was the talk everywhere.  Even the newspapers headlines were always about him , the company and people like him. Immy is in her third year and now she feels so uncomfortable at the university grounds. But thanks to Nancy and Vicky they helped her to stay and complete her studies. 

There things I regret but were bound to happen soon or later. Immy's fiance called off the engagement.  He told her he only loved her because he thought she's an only child and if they get married he would take over the company.  Mr M.D. kept reporting to the police station.  It was a very difficult time for immy. I feel so bad and I think I have to do something about this.  She ate very little and she is starting to lose weight.

I talked to Vicky and Nancy and they told me immy had a crush on a certain boy. She loves him so much but she couldn't date him because the guy comes from a very poor family they said. To heal a heartbreak you need someone by your side. 

I knew immy needed someone who could love her the way she is and not because of her status and money. Oh God what can I do?.  I spend most of the days indoors. Mr M.D. stays at home and now he sleeps on the first floor.  Nana came back and she knows that we are twins but asked her not to tell Mr M.D.. .She takes care of him. Immy Is so depressed and rarely talks to me. Yes I understand her pain. And I accept to take the blame.

Read " Sister's Love " by the same author ( fatumah sulait )

. I approached Stephen and oh God he also loves immy. I was straight forward with him and I proved to him am not immy but her twin sister. His a tall guy ,broad chest,milk white teeth, chocolate in color and muscular.  I invited him for dinner and he accepted. 

Mommy I have some visitors who are coming today for dinner. I know you hate me so much but please do me a favour and attend . I promise if you attend I will leave this place and go back to masaka. Am sorry for causing you all the pain. I said looking at her straight in her eyes. Tears rolled down her cheeks as stood and hugged me so tight.  I swear if you leave me alone and go to masaka I will kill myself and my ghost will haunt you to death. She had a sad smile now and however much she's going through HELL, I knew she still loved me so much.
