A Teenage Girl's Diary

Bimbo is a young girl with bad background. She's lost in deep thought 
as she'll clock <b>17</b> very soon and the experiences she's had for the past ten years of her life has been really tragic. It was filled with lot of abuse. whether physically, mentally even spiritually she's been abused. the loud noise behind her snapped her out of her thought. "You better come out stupid girl" Mrs Adeseye called out. Ma am coming she answered. Put water inside this bucket and drop it in the bath room i want to bath.
This has been her daily routine for the past nine months since her mum gave birth to their last born. She wakes up every morning to buy the things Mr Adeseye will eat before going to work .her nursing mother and her 2 younger brothers will still be asleep by then. Her next duty is to take care of the baby, after that she  performs numerous chores before going to school. Sometimes she wonders if she's a true daughter of her parent. Of the four children she feels she suffers the most but the neighbors aren’t so sure about that looking at the well being of the children.

The Adeseye Family is one of a kind. Mrs Adeseye is a fat fair woman with stretch marks like a zebra's stripe. She doesn't work. she's a full house wife. Mr Adeseye is a short man, slim and changes color every day like a chameleon, he's color can never be determined. He works in a bank as a security but he lied to the wife and children that he works as an accountant in the bank. Mr Adeseye is a minister in their apostolic church but i he can be called the black Jesus. Ebenezer and Dayo are the names of Bimbo's younger brother. their last born is Feyi she's a girl. She's 9 months old. They live in a rented room apartment on the mainland of Lagos. The room is painted blue .On the right side of the room is their bed. On the left side of the room is a 24 inch TV below it is another32 inch TV then finally under the TV is another 52 inch TV. they all work and i wonder how many TV’s they watch at a time. Other things in the room are pictures hanging on the wall. a two-seater sofa and lots of cloths. of course4 they have other electrical appliances like fan, bulb, electric cooker, a GO-TV decoder, and some other gadgets.

Life for them was a bit tough. Bimbo’s uncle also rented a room apartment in the same compound. He rented the room after living with the  Adeseye’s  for close to three years. Ade is a black guy bit later bleached his skin. He's muscular like this Calabar dudes. this was due to his previous experiences. he decided to come to the city after finishing his secondary school education in the village. when he got to his sister's place he had to live with his sister and her family in the room. After getting A visitor's treatment for two weeks, his sister sent him out to get a job for himself. he knows no where in Lagos. He just went straight to the park where he was dropped, He talked to some guy who helped him get a job as a porter in the park after months of carrying luggage he stopped the job and started working as a Teacher. The teaching job was  better than the previous one he was doing. He later quit teaching due to unpaid salary and secured a job at a nearby restaurant where he presently works. click here for more
