I was working as a sex worker in the evenings, but I used to go to school. I was paying my school fees. I was 11 years old. My parents had sent me to the city but the person I was staying with had no job by that time. So my friend told me that there was a job available.
There were many girls. The youngest was 9 years, so I wasn’t the youngest. The men look for girls who are young, because young bodies have no diseases like HIV and other diseases.
I want to be an electrician because we can earn money without suffering. We can just repair a TV and earn money.
