My first years in bamenda town by @Abongeh

Greetings dearly loved steemians
thanks in advance for the patience exercised to read through my post

I bring to you this write up in seasons and each season will have a couple of episodes

Season 1E1

Growing up as a little boy, I aspired alot of greatness. back in the village my siblings and I will always accompany mum to the cassava farm so we could assist her with a couple of tasks and looking at how stressful it was carrying cassava from distant farms all the way home on foot, I made up my mind never to be broke in my life because I looked at people I knew who were not into stressful activities but yet living better than we did because they were financially more stable.

on the 13th of August 2011, my late uncle VIDZENSI VINCENT came to take me to bamenda so I could school there. I saw this as a great chance to lay a solid foundation for my tomorrow educationally.

living the village, I thought life will be as easy in town as in the village.

As I got to bamenda that same evening, after being welcomed by my uncle's wife, I was served with a loaf of "garri and okro" which couldn't satisfy my hunger. After eating I couldn't complain because I thought we'll eat again before going to bed. before I noticed everyone was going to bed and I said to my self "na so the bamenda go de"

I had no choice but to sleep as well though the night was really long due to hunger.

Early the next morning, I started washing dishes because I didn't want that by the time they prepare food dishes should be what will prolong the matter. after anxiously washing dishes in order to eat, I found my Aunt in front of the house with a pile of clothes to be washed then I realised that there was even no fire in the kitchen yet talkless of heating food.

I entered my room and cried asking myself why I was brought to town in the first place.
back then I had so much value for food.

please let me end this episode here.

Watch out for episode 2
