00:00One night I got curious of what all the yelling and noise was coming from their bedroom and I
00:05snuck and I watched from under the door and what I saw changed my life forever and it terrified me
00:10and I ran away that night for the first time. I felt like nobody wanted me. An older lady
00:16approached me a few hours after I left the house. She lived down the street. She smoked me that night
00:23for the very first time and she encouraged me to go home that I had her now. I was at
00:29the first
00:30party that she took me to and I later found out that she actually sold my virginity. I felt betrayed.
00:37She would take me to houses and sell me to her dealers. I was only 12 at this time. I
00:43wanted my
00:44parents to love me and my brother more than that than they loved it. I found out I was pregnant.
00:49I had nobody that cared, nowhere to go. I couldn't even finish my education. So I ended up telling a
00:56guy I barely knew that I had recently been with that he got me pregnant and he believed me. I
01:03needed
01:03a safe place to live and be fed. This man made me clean a certain way, cook a certain way,
01:09perform facts for him multiple times a day. When I had my son, I was at the hospital alone and
01:16I
01:16endured this for about almost four or five years. And I left one day because I had some strong
01:22suspicions that he was using my son. I actually met my husband through this ugly process when my son was
01:29four.
