Ada grew up to be a beautiful girl: The delight of her widowed mum: Mrs. Ujunwa and the desire of people. But on getting to the campus there was a switch of the kind of life she lived, like a bird that was let loose

She mingled with friends that her mum had warned her not to. Two weeks to her second semester exam in the university, she became pregnant and the only way to save the disgrace she had brought to her mum was to do an abortion.
In a bid to abort the pregnancy, it resulted in several days bleeding and she was taken to the school clinic and the news got to her mum who left home immediately to visit her daughter.
Her tears knew no bound as she saw her daughter in a serious state of coma.
Mrs. Ujunwa: Doctor, please how is my daughter now?
Dr. Evelyn: hmmmmm, I am really sorry, we couldn’t help the situation properly, her womb has being damaged.
Mrs Ujunwa went blank, she could neither cry nor laugh, it was indeed a blood red sky for her as her feeling was a mixture of fear, anger and tears.
