Gloria
is a failure. She’s been a failure all her life. From primary school all
through to secondary school, she’d always been an epic fail. She even failed at
killing herself!
Gloria’s
father has never hesitated to remind her of how much he hated her. He never
failed to make her know that he wasn’t proud of her. He had given up. Since her
mother’s death, she’d even become worse. Gloria’s father had brought her to yet
another university admission exercise. She wanted to try one last time. But yet
again, she failed. To her, this was the straw that broke the camel’s back. She
headed back to the school’s guest house with her father but her father was too
ashamed to be around her so he decided to head out again. This time, Gloria
decided it was time to meet her maker. Life wasn’t worth living anymore.
