Rilonde: This isn't just another rape story.

By Murendeni Matumba

Rilonde has a normal childhood, raised in a family that instils faith and hope into her life. And although she faces a bit of stereotype and abuse here and there, that has nothing on the resilient type that she is.

However, the terror of night approaches just when she is about to enter into adulthood. She finds herself numb & dissociated from life and everything around her, when the most sacred part of her Being is violated by a man who is no stranger to her. Psychological pain, a distorted worldview, and toxic relationships become the theme of her life. She is trapped in her mind, questioning her self-worth, love, the world around her, and her very own existence.

The only way to survive this, is through a love into Self, that is how she finds healing.
