I remembered passing out and fainted on the assembly due to lots of stress.

Was born into the family of ten.  Its seem so fun at the beginning knowing you are the only girl among the nine boys of the family; I remembered how protectives my brothers was to me. They hate and wont even allow any boy be, it my course mate at school visit me. I'm always with my parent and my brothers are my friends. And here comes a drama day when one of my Male school class mate visited me at home, one of my brother just returned from Lagos and when he heard " this my friend's voice at the door" He told my other brother that the guy must  not enter the house but unfortunately my brother said why not and as the guy stepped in, my just returnee  brother gave my friend a hot dirty clap and immediately, my two brother started fighting each other. They started exchanging blow and people came and separated them. Oh dear.  

I remember how students are assigned to each teachers  to go and work on every Wednesday at either teachers house, farm, or school as we call it "labour day" I could sometimes, be at my assignments place till 7pm or more washing teacher's clothes and their families thing. Or be at the teacher's farm harvesting groundnuts, fetching firewood and transporting it to their house which can sometimes be like an approximately, 15, 20, and even 30miles far away from town and down in a hideous Bush. And a day came when I went as usual and didn't return till it was so late around 8 to 9pm and  when I finally returned I sighted my mother in my teacher's house waiting anxiously for my return. 

Immediately I dropped the firewood on my head and my mother grabbed my hand and took me home and quite within me, I knew my mom wont let me return to my assignments place next Wednesday and oh! I was right; the next day early morning, my mom took me to school and straight to our principal's office and make a complaint and also warned both the principal and all the teachers present to allow me focus on my book and promised them an intending danger if anything ever happens to me with their ridiculous Wednesday work.  

He lamented how I was the only girl she had, he told them to take a look at me and how skinny I was and that she doesn't even gives me stress at home so why should the teachers want to kill me for her. I remembered passing out and fainted on the assembly due to lots of stress. Afterwards! I was assigned to a more lenient teacher whom I used to just wash plates and clothes but no more firewood. Gradually, I was becoming a grown girl and when I got to year 5 in college. 

 To be continued.
