It was such a wonderful moment for Sonia when she paid her two elder sisters a visit. Sonia lived with her parents and never had the experience of spending a night outside their family house. This time, she was happy as things were going to be a bit different. Though she also thought of how she was going to miss her parents, the joy of staying in a very different environment enveloped such weird thought.
It was on a Saturday morning when she set out to the neighbouring town where her two sisters live. Sonia's sisters, Cynthia and Sophie were "supposed business women". Their parents and even Sonia were thinking that Cynthia and Sophie were successful entrepreneurs because that's what they were told. But all was not what it seemed.
At first, they never agreed to the idea that Sonia should come visit them because they didn't want to be exposed of what they actually do, but they had no other option since their parents were going out of town for a month.
Before Sonia arrived, her sisters had already planned on what to do. When she got there, they sat her down and gave her some rules; some of which included, Never to receive a visitor when they aren't around and not to say anything or speak when she is not asked to.
But what really happened? Cynthia and Sophie were running prostitution. Something they never dreamt of. But because of how life was hard when they left for the city, they were forced to get involved in such.
As Sonia was about to leave when her parents returned after the one month, her sisters cautioned her never to mention what they do to mum and Dad and she agreed. But she couldn't just keep quiet and watch her sisters keep walking into darkness.
On arrival, her parents asked about their daughters and she lied at first. Afterwards, she told them about what they do to earn all the luxury they have been enjoying. Sonia's parents were deeply broken.
Days later, they invited Cynthia and Sophie home. Those two knew that all was not going to be well. But it was actually for their good. They later went home and they were made to understand what I take as the moral of this story. That life isn't a bed of roses. It might not be balanced but you don't have to compromise. Just take one step at a time and everything will be fine.
Cynthia and Sophie vowed never to return to such a lifestyle. They repented from it and were grateful for the little they had. They also thanked Sonia for saving them.
Good one
