Maya: Initiate 39 is an adult work-piece that explores the ordeals of Maya Isaacs. An over-protected single child, a victim of a broken home, Maya was raised single-handedly by a man whom she knew as her father, Samuel. He had divorced his wife, Cynthia, years ago on grounds of infidelity before Maya turned three years old. Growing up in Durban was a heady mixture of good, bad and ugly for Maya.
Through the influence of wrong peers, Maya went into the
underworld endeavors of stealing, drug trafficking, and prostitution, under the
cover of a very perverse juvenile assembly called the Alternative Lifestyle
Club (The ALC). She joined the club in the pursuit of what she called her
"destiny" and became popular among many top-notch Southern Africans.
After several disappointments, Maya thought she could use her
connections to bite the fingers that fed her, by carrying out the assignments
given her own way - a way of letting the organization know that she was no
push-over. But that was not the case! Consequently, Craig and Ms. Diana, the
active players of the club, led this juvenile to her doom. They set her up and
the police did the rest. The long arm of the law landed her in prison in
Johannesburg. It was while she was in prison that she realized that
changing for the better would be the only way to save herself.
Through a favor from Van Brussels, a rich gold merchant, school
owner and chairperson of the Louisville Shipping Company, against whom she had
committed a crime in the past, Maya was released from prison before the stipulated the sentence was up. She was sent to the United States for secretarial studies,
worked for Van Brussels' company for a couple of years, and then returned to
her native Durban home in South Africa with her husband, Daniel Young, to find
her father, whom she had left years before.
