Hello good day my fellow Hivians, it has been a long time I write here, so coming back I believe y’all doing good, so today I want to tell you a true life story not just a regular fiction story which goes like this.
Once upon a time, there lived a young boy born in the 90s into a family of seven, the childhood was not one filled with ease or privilege for him. The father, a man who believed in the value of hard work, took him to learn a trade at a young age. At just 8 years old, he was placed under the guidance of a boss, a man who was supposed to teach him the skills he needed to build a future. The life was already challenging, but nothing prepared him for what was to come.
At the age of 12, tragedy struck his father passed away. His death was a wound that never truly healed, leaving the mother a widow to fend for him and his siblings. That same year, he moved in with his boss permanently. Having already worked under him for four years, the boy thought things would remain the same, but he was mistaken.
Not long after, his boss got married. At first, life continued smoothly, but once his wife had their first child, everything changed. She became a source of constant torment in the boy’s life, creating problems out of nothing and insulting his family without reason. The most painful moment was back in 2011 when the bosses wife mocked the only house they owned, calling it a mere poultry house, these words cut deep, but he endured it, knowing that his only goal was to build a better life not just for himself, it was especially for his mother, who was carrying the weight of the entire family on her shoulders.
The insults and mistreatment grew unbearable, turning his life into a daily battle of endurance. Eventually, he had enough and was tired he went to his boss and told him sir I can no longer stay. He was in shock, He asked him to reconsider, but the boys mind was made up. The next morning, he packed his things and left.
The old building called a poultry house
With no place to call home, he moved in with his uncle. For a year and a few months he found peace. But then, he made a mistake going against one of his instructions. It was an act of disobedience and he could not tolerate it. Without hesitation he told him to leave. Once again, he was on his own.
He moved to another city to live with his aunt. He hoped for a fresh start, but after months of working for her without any pay, things took a turn for the worse. As a grown man, he needed money for his own needs, but she saw no reason to compensate him, tensions grew between them.
Then one day, an unexpected opportunity arose, a man, a complete stranger had been observing his struggles. One day, after his aunt humiliated him, even slapping him in public, the man walked up to him and said this, "You are a real man. I respect how you handled that." His words gave him strength.
That same man helped him secure a job in a company he patronize . So on the day of his interview, the aunt tried to delay him by sending him on an errand, even though she knew he had an important meeting. Frustrated, he left in anger and went straight to the company. Surprisingly, he was hired on the spot no formal interview, just an honest conversation with the manager. His determination spoke for itself.
For the first time in a long time, he was earning my own money, receiving my salary on time, even earning bonuses. His aunt however, was not pleased. She started demanding financial support from him, despite never paying him when he worked for her. Eventually, he had to leave her house.
With nowhere else to go, he moved in with a coworker someone he barely knew. Yet, they never had any problems. They lived together in peace until he finally secured his own place. Having his own space, privacy it became a milestone he had long dreamt of.
As time passed, he continued to push forward. After a year and a few months, he applied to a university. Against all odds, he was accepted, and today, he is a final year student studying Computer Science.
Looking back all the hardship, insult, all those painful moment was a stepping stone him. His mother who suffered for years, is now building a new house a house no one can ever call a poultry farm again. A real home of three bedrooms flat, a kitchen, store and a parking lot for the future just incase they buy a car.

Everything he have been through was covered by grace. His life story is not just one of pains alone but of perseverance and faith, life have tested him in different and possibly ways, but he refused to break. And today, he stand tall against all odds, knowing that no matter what challenges that come his way, he will always rise above them. For all I have written about is about my true life story, pains, struggles and things I have faced in my life, tho I didn’t talk much I mean deep about everything because if I should write I don’t think I will finish up today.
