IS CHUKWU TRULY WISE?

"Mama,Can I be like Kim Kardashian if I try harder
My daughter asked me with tear stained eyes
I don't know what to say
I was blank
Nne why are you crying?
Who hurt you?
Those were the words I managed to utter
"Mama,Can I have a private coach trainer?
She continued, ignoring my questions
Mama,Can I get one?
She said, stamping her feet so hard on the tiles
The tears now falling continuously
Her big cheeks now red
Why do you want one Nne?
'Cause I'm called fat mama
I don't have any friends
Just Amaka and she's fat too
I can't eat lunch with Chike
And you know i like him
Mama my life's ruined
I watched quietly as my daughter ranted
Her eyes now swollen
I don't know what to do
What can I tell her?
I pulled her into my warm embrace
Combing my hands through her long hair
As she tried catching her breath
What can I say to her?
I'm fat too
Just as I pulled her in,she pulled herself away
Mama Why are you fat too?
She asked with a Stern look on her round face
Am I fat because you are?
She asked questions non stop
Not waiting for my own reply
The tears still dropping
Then,the words came rushing
Nne, being thick skinned is not bad
It's not a curse
Chukwu made us this way
He created everyone as he see fits
Then mama,Chukwu is to be blamed
My little daughter said with no fear
Nne, don't say that
Chukwu is really wise
As I tried explaining further
She ran out of the house without looking back
I tried running after her
But my legs couldn't carry me as far as I wanted to go
I stood panting, watching as my daughter ran into the street
Is Chukwu truly wise?
Is my Daughter right?
I thought as I walked dejectedly into the night.

In Nigeria, Chukwu is an igbo word.It means God.
