Her friend Mama Carol, had advised her to give up her first son Jason to serve as a house help in order to support the family.
That morning when Mama Carol revisited the idea of sending Jason off to work as a maid, Amaka was terrified. She found the idea appalling-her only son serving at the feet of people so they could feed.
But what other option do you have? Mama Carol asked. I wish Mama carol, I just wish Amaka replied perplexed in her spirit.
You should be thankful Jason is old enough. but he is just fifteen with the dreams of becoming an engineer someday.
Mama Carol laughed and said, and how does he plan to become an engineer since he cannot go to school anymore.
I just want to see him go to school Amaka sobbed.out it?
Mama carol said but you do not have the money to send him to school now, what can you do?
Amaka sighed, this is a hard decision, please can you give me more time to think about it?
I advice you to take up your mind on time, Mama Carol concluded.
