She was scared but she had no choice but to endure the pain since she couldn’t imagine telling her parents the unimaginable trauma she had been subjected to that led to the pains she was going through. “How could I face them? How could I tell them that the man they handed me over to, to help process my admission, had raped me?” Shola said.
