Niyonteze Olive & Uwamurera Yvone

[1]

Uwamurera Yvone asks her step-sister, Niyonteze Olive, to tell her about their family’s past. How did their father die in the genocide and how Uwamurera Yvone’s mother was left without inheritance. How Niyonteze Olive worked as a domestic worker, preserved herself, and was able to improve her life. Uwamurera Yvone wants to know how the family will take care of her in the future. Niyonteze Olive reminds her of the support that exists from her grandmother and other relatives, and advises her to be patient.

“As I told you, problems never cease to end. Even as you stay with your brother you will continue to experience issues, but you have to be patient. I also went looking for work, and wherever I worked they would counsel me and give me some piece of advice. I should resist all temptations. They raised me to be the kind of woman I am today.” Niyonteze Olive

“I would like Olive to explain to me how I came about on this planet and how our family was.” Uwamurera Yvone
