Episode 1.
“Wait, you think life is difficult, partial or you feel you are the only one facing mostly hardship, challenges, etc. No, you are not but there is surely a way out. Let me share with you all a life experience” Miss Bosede said.
Tolani was born on the 21st of September, 2019 into the family of Mr and Mrs Alabi. She was born into a christain home. Tolani is the 2nd born out of four but mostly, she plays the role of the first born because of how are parent regarded her. She was 10 years old when she began to have issues with life.
She grew up in a family where her parent had limited time for them, most especially her father. Her grandma and house help are always available to help mostly during the weeks. Mummy comes back late in the evening from work and still find her way to check their assignment if its done. Apart from the assignment, there are many things Tolani wanted to discuss with mum but there is no time.
She pen down everything bothering her into a book and she has a Teady bear who she calls her listening partner since she never had one. Tolani had little relationship with her siblings:- David, Ibukun and Oyinda. She had gotten used to herself being alone. She was a girl with little words but her siblings fails to understand.
They feels she is too gentle and playing with her has a limit. So, they are always been careful around her. Tolani tried her best to be jovial but it was not working. She tried to express herself severally but she keeps struggling with it.
She had gotten used to writing down how she feels. She could not tell anybody and nobody even noticed. Even mum did not because they all think that is who Tolani is. That was how she developed low self esteem but Tolani did not know, she also think its her personality
“Did it just end there, how could she think low self esteem was a personality” one of Miss Bosede student asked.
“You won't know, until you know” Miss Bosede replied
