Hours later of weeping, she wiped her sore face and looked out the window. A cock roamed free around the red sand. That was what she wished for, freedom. She wanted to have the freedom to make decisions that would bring progress to her life. She wanted to achieve what she was destined for. She believed that her destiny was more than her being a wife to a man already married to three women.
But wait, she could still do something about her situation. An idea popped into her mind and Abigail knew she was going to walk alone on the path to success. Abigail is an eighteen-year-old girl that decides to walk alone. She decides to take control of her life and steer it the way she wishes. Her first plan is to run away from home to the city.
We all know the danger of city life, don't we? Will she survive as she walks alone in life or is there someone out there who is watching over her? Remember what they say, 'No man is an island'. Let's see how it will end for Abigail.

To find what is amiss, you need to dig deep into this unique story and by the end of this journey, you will understand the big picture— how all the pieces of your life fit together.
“When will I ever look in the mirror and like what I see? If only the petals could stop falling, if only my beauty shone like the blue ocean, pellucid and if only I saw the advantage of my height, maybe my past won’t have to haunt my present and future. Maybe I won’t have lost my beloved and abstract friend.” ― Rachel.
“I don’t want to chase money. I want money to chase me. If there is no passion, how long can I do the job with a smile?” ― Lolade.
