The Baby Trafficking Ring

Lupe, Lupe, Lupe come here Mrs Laura yelled from her room, mom am coming Lupe answered as she hastily wiped her tears and went to the room to answer her mother.

saying goodbye to her childhood friend was something she never thought she would be doing anytime soon but she had to, it’s all for the best, I have to let her go

The truth is that she and Gracie were inseparable, they became friends when they met in church at the age of 2 and 14 years later, they had become more like sisters.

the month of June is a very special month for Lupe and Gracie as they always mark their birthdays together with Lupe’s overprotective twin brother Emmanuel

Mom, Lupe called as she entered the room and sat down next to her mom, mom she called again, am here mom

my baby I don’t know how to tell you this but I will be leaving Mexico soon mrs Laura managed to say this in one sentence

Why, what happened mom Lupe asked surprised and angry at the same time, Gracie left today because she wants to study abroad and mom is also leaving who knows Emma will also leave as well, I don’t know why everyone is leaving, she thought to herself.

My dear, mrs Laura said her softly while taking a deep breath to calm her nerves, baby I got a job offer over there that could change our lives for good, the pay is good and it’s a lifetime opportunity to improve our standard of living.

Mom lupe called, mom I don’t really know what to say.

Say something my dear, don’t you want me to go mrs Laura asked her calmly

Yes I want you to stay here with us Lupe said calmly but mom to be frank am happy for you, am happy for us but am still sad that you are leaving, its going to be hard not having you around here we have never been separated, am more sad than happy Mum, a part of me wants you to stay and another part wants you to go.

Baby In as much as I don’t want to be separated from my kids I also want to give them a better life and there are lots of opportunities in the United States, think about it this way, I will go there, get settled and then send for you and your brother and your dad, how do you see it my love?

Oh Mum, it’s ok Lupe answered, trying so hard to avoid the question, I think we all have to learn how to adapt, we will be fine and we will be together soon that’s all that matters.

Thank you my dear Mrs Lupe replied while hugging her, I wish your brother could be more understanding like you, I didn’t want him to find out the way he did

What happened mom, Lupe asked curiously.........

Your brother overheard my phone call conversations with my friend Lisa then he got angry and stormed off.

Mum my brother tend to overreact sometimes because he’s too soft and sensitive, don’t take it to heart, Just give him some time to process things, he will come around.

I certainly hope so my dear, i just wish he could be more understanding like you....

Mom I will talk to him ok, let me go look for him

Laura said hugged her mom and left the room in search of her twin brother, she searched the Whole house but still no sign of him, she decided to check their usual hideout, the family farm nearby

My Better half, little brother Lupe called while searching round the trees, Stop calling me little brother, am your twin, we are age mates Lupe, Emmanuel yelled.

Huh I got you better half, I have searched all over for you, you thought you could hide from me, I knew you would show up once I call you that Lupe said

You know me too well Sis, I just needed a quiet spot to cool off Emma said while hugging his sister, sis am just sad

I know brother but you can always talk to me, am ever ready to listen to you, Lu mom is leaving and am so sad Emmanuel said tearfully

I know but it’s for the best, don’t you think so, you know is also hard on her too Lupe said

You don’t understand Lupe Emmanuel cuts in, then make me understand dear brother Lupe said while staring straight at her twin brother

In one week time mom will leave us, the notice is too short, we have never been separated from her, why can’t we all stay together like we used to Emma said and sighed deeply

You know mom would never accept the offer if it was not worth it, I understand how you feel, me and Gracie never left each other’s side but we had to, I know it’s not the same thing but it’s almost feels the same,

hmmm she stopped briefly and continued, I still think you need to talk to mom, talking about it can help ease the tension Lupe said trying to make her brother see reasons with her

Ok sis, you know why you are so special to me, you have the remedy to all my problems talking with you makes me feel alright whenever am down, you just lifted my spirit I love you Lupe, Emmanuel said

I love you too dearest brother, Lupe said softly while smiling....

Let’s go swimming after that I will talk to Mum Emma said amid smiles

At home, mrs Laura was pacing up and down the room feeling restless, just then someone hugged him from behind, mom am sorry for storming off like that Emma said apologetically

oh my dear it ok, mrs Lupe replied, mom just that I was caught unawares but after speaking to a special person, I think I understand everything now he said while smiling at Lupe

Come here baby Emma said trying to mimick how their mom use to call Lupe, Lupe smiles and joins them in a hug.

Just then Mr Arturo entered the living room a saw the heart touching scene

Hello family am back he said smiles at them and joins them in a hug, what did I miss my loves, you missed a lot sweet heart mrs Laura replied...

One week later mrs Laura, Emmanuel, Lupe and their father mr Arturo is seen at the airport in tears hugging saying goodbye, it was a heart wrenching moment for them as theirs was a close knitted family who had never left each other’s side, they always do things together and saying goodbye was the hardest thing for them....
