After a month i did a baby shower,it was great I received lots of gifts from friends and family and I was so excited not until after a week I got a call from bens cousin that bens mom had a heart attack and died,I felt bad we where so close with her I wonder what caused her attack ,I sat there and cried I called mom and we organized for us to go but how am I going to tell Ben the news I started crying ,Ben came in the house until he saw me crying what’s wrong he asked.

Me:am sorry baby your mom is gone she had an attack

Ben:no!no!no!no!its not true dad left me now its mom,he cried I took the baby and gave him a bath and we where set to for the funeral in Ndola.

I parked bens clothes and mine and we got mom and my sister and started our journey.

We arrived at the funeral house and when Ben saw his big sister he started crying we got out of the car and we all cried great everyone in the living room bens aunt showed us where will be sleeping in Ben’s old room I entered the room and it bought old memories when I used to run away from home to go to Ndola to see Ben and when he came to Lusaka for good to stay with his uncle I didn’t see him much .

Ben came in the room and got the baby and took him to see his auntie’s it was evening we ate supper and I put Tristan to sleep me and Ben took a bath and went sleep.

Me:am sorry baby this happened

Ben:its ok its going to be well at least I have you and Mildred as my family we kissed and slept, around 01:23 baby Tristan work me up with his crying I breastfeed him and he sleep I was wide awake and started looking at Ben while he was fast asleep I smiled and went to sleep.

After 3days we put Mrs chirwa to rest next to her husband who died 12years ago,on our way back to Lusaka as we made jocks in the car a car hit us and I

slowly closed my eyes and only heard the baby’s crying and someone took him from me I looked at the person trying to get my baby weakly it was Bertha.

Bertha:you thought you would run away how does it feel to die,Ben is my love and I will marry him by false, I looked at Ben he was very injured and mom wasn’t moving ,my sister was also not moving I was in so much pain ,Bertha took the baby and ran off , i screamed weakly but no one could hear me.

I woke up in the morning in a hospital I cried my baby!everyone thought I was crazy four nurses came to hold me I want my husband! I cried few days I was in access to see my sister,mom and Ben I went to all the ward they where being kept my sister was OK she was recovering my mom was already discharged,but Ben was in a comma he had four more surgery he had broken his spine but the doctor said its going to be OK.I cried when I saw him.

The police came and asked what happened I told them I cried what if they hurt my baby Tristan

Bertha wanted me to die so she could take Ben and marry him by force but when she saw the police at the scene she run away with the baby instead so Ben could follow her.
