?THE REJECTED CHILD Chapter 12
I will give it all it takes. I want to prove to her father wrong. I want him to know that girls can succeed even better than boys if they study hard."
She was still living in that neighborhood because Mr Njoku's wife suggested that they should rent out their boy's quarters to her for a small few. She unoccupied and mama Ada needed their assistance. The best way they could help her without having problem with her husband was tO make her a tentant for less than they would have rented the apartment to another person. Her husband agreed with her and mama Ada and her daughter became full fledged in their house.

Back in papa Ada's house, things were not as rosy as they used to be. He had invested a lot in a business Helen's brother introduced him to. He was very sure that it would bring a lot of profit.Helen, now called mama twins, convince him to do business with her brother. Her reason was that her brother claimed he just met some white men who had different kinds of goods to ship into the country.
Mama twins had just been delivered of a third child, a boy. She had four boys altogether for her husband. She had fully established herself as only wife of chukwuemaka ikenna. Papa Ada threw a party and invited neighbors. There was a lot to eat and drink, even lots to take home. It was news in the neighborhood for the rest of the week.
The following week, news came that simon, mama twins' brother had Traveled out of the country. Papa Ada was surprised and said to his wife,
"Why would your brother travel out of the country when he knows that we have an unfinished business?" He tried his best to reach those simon introduced him to but they had all disappeared into thin air. He was devastated, he had spent over two-third of his money on the business simon introduced him to. Mama twins was sad. She did not like the fact that they would not rich as they used to be. She cried a lot and rained cursed on Simon.
