I also got a child, a baby boy, the bouncing type, and I was happy for a while.

I opened a small computer shop in a mall. But the city had its trump card up its sleeve I couldn’t secure a job. I also had dreams to change my destiny as any village girl should. I had a bachelor’s degree in Information Technology (IT) at Kenyatta University. Like many who had attained university education, I had migrated to the city of lights from a little village called Kamutira in Kirinyaga County, Kenya. Marriages end all the time, yes, but for me, it wasn’t just a marriage that ended, it was a process, a big happily-ever-after plan that had ended.
