Femi was my aunt’s husband, and I have being living with her family for quite some time now — a period of almost 2 months. She had already given birth to 3 kids.
Her first son was within my age range… I was 19 and Frank was 17 and very handsome too, Solomon was 10 while the last born – Divine was 8 years of age.
And that was where I —Esther came into the picture, I was the extra helping hand needed to assist with the house chores especially when aunt Jennifer was away on her company trips.
She promised to take full responsibility for funding my education as far as I was going to help her take of the family whenever she’s absent
Due to the nature of her job, she was hardly ever around…it kept moving from one project to the other… she needed a house help but she refused hiring one.
And because of the evils occuring in the country. So she thought it better that a relative of the family should take up the work.
It was a golden opportunity for me and my family, owing to the fact that I come from a very poor background…a scenario where my both parents are uneducated.
We fed from hand to mouth….it was that bad. My parents struggled to make ends meet and it was very difficult to cater for our education,that make me to accept my aunt request to go stay with her.
