I’m Lusu. I was living happily in the Amazon in the South America with my husband and daughter. That all changed when my daughter was only five years old.
One night, we heard the door creaked open and we saw Mita standing there. ‘Mom, I don’t feel well....my tummy hurts....so much...’ she said. ‘We should take her to the hospital now just in case something’s wrong!’my husband said ’Yeah...!’ I replied.
At that time I thought it might only be food poisoning or something. Even thought it was midnight, the doctor saw her immediately. ‘Her abdomen seems a little bloated....this is....’ ‘No,it can’t be...’ the doctor nervously said. ‘Is something wrong with her?’ I panicked.
‘A tumour could have formed in her abdomen’ he said. ‘A tumour....does that mean she has cancer....’ ‘oh my god...’ We didn’t know the case, but we know something serious was happening. The diagnosis shocked us all. ‘This is unbelievable but...’ the doctor begin. ‘Please doctor, what is it? We’re prepared for the worst’ we said.
‘Your daughter is...pregnant..!!’ He said. ‘What?! Our daughter’s pregnant!?’ I shouted in shock. ‘No way....’ my husband said. My husband seemed more unable to control himself then I could. ‘She’s only 5 years old! That’s impossible!’ ‘D-dear....’ I tried to calm him down. ‘Who’s the father?!’ He shouted. My husband was unusually upset. ‘I swear I’ll find him’ he said. ‘Dear,please calm down’ I said.
He was furious and even though we tried to restrain him, he ran out of the hospital. On the way home from the hospital, I asked Mita to tell me the truth. ‘Mita...do you have any idea who did this to you? I’m always on your side’ I said softly. ‘D-Dad....did..!’ She cried. I couldn’t believe it. When I thought about it he was acting weird from the moment the doctor revealed the pregnancy. ‘No way...but now that you mentioned it, I remember he often took you out alone.’
‘Mom...what should I do..?’ She burst into tears. I could never forgive him for what he did but more than that, I was fiercely determined; ‘I’ll protect both Mita and the baby!’ I hugged her. ‘Everything will be alright,Mita! I’ll take care of everything!!’ I console her.
After that day, my husband disappeared. ‘You have to eat a lot of a healthy baby,alright?’ ‘Okay!’ She said cheerfully. We decided not to dwell on the tragedy. Time flew by, and the moment came. ‘Mom...I’m scared’ she said. ‘Don’t worry,Mita. This is a gift from god.’ I replied. Then....’wahhh....wahhhh’ ‘Congratulations! It’s a healthy girl!’ The doctor said. ‘My....my baby!’She gave birth safely. I prayed again for the happiness of both of these children.
‘Mita had a very mature body for a 5 years old. That’s what made her pregnancy possible.’ This extreme precocity made possible for Mita to become the youngest mother in the world. ‘Okay, Mita, here!’ Mira said. ‘Thank you, you’re so kind!’ Mita reply. I thought about both of their future and decided to raise Mita’s baby as her little sister.
Time passed, and when Mita was 30, she fell in love. ‘Mita.....I love you....will you marry me?’ ‘Yes...! Of course!’ ‘Mita...congratulations! I’m so happy for you.’ I said. ‘Mom! Thank you for everything! ’ Mita said to me. When Mita got married and had another baby, I told her daughter the truth. ‘Mama Mita, guess what!...’
At first she was shocked, but now she is enjoying the special family relationship.
There have been many reports of extremely young girls giving birth.... for example, in Peru an 8 year old girl also gave birth and in the former Soviet Union a 6 year old girl gave birth. The human body and the mysterious of life seem limitless but the tragic reality that exists in the background of these stories should not be ignored.
The story above that was just told was a true story. Please share it and help stop sexual abuse to woman and girls.
