    Part 1.

    Shayla.

         What could happen if everyone in the world had money? Do you think the social vices, hatred, insecurities will end? What about bribery and corruption, because, why on earth will you bribe me when I've got hell of a money too? How about people dieing from small illnesses that money could have solved? All these questions and imaginations kept lingering in my head while I pondered 🤔 on the reality facing me. 

    "Shayla, Shayla, Shayla... Hnnmm" I said to myself " e go better one day". 

          Hurriedly, in search of what to eat that morning while I set out to beg for money. A daily routine that I had set for myself because I needed to cater for the family. As the first born female who resides in another land, all hopes are high. I have to make it by all means. The burden is too much. I lost my dad when I was 8years. A mum who's partially down with stroke and two younger siblings who always demand for things that I can't provide. I'm just 23 years old and I'm already having gray hairs on my head. 

    I always think it through, what if everyone on this earth is rich and there's no class division? Won't the world be a better place to be? Reason with me.

    Life goes on. I stood up. Just about to enter the kitchen, I heard a loud 🔊 knock on the door.

    'Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang' 

    'bang bang bang bang bang bang bang' 

    I was mute, who could it be. I'm owing a lot of people, I haven't paid my water bill, even the security bill. Why didn't I leave the house so early and return late when everyone is asleep? What do I do now? 

    "Open this door before I pull it down!"
