stay with my uncle and his family. though he is not financially Comfortable.
Earlier this year when they were about to move in to their new apartment, My uncle and his wife said the new house was too small and wont be able to house me. They suggested I get somewhere else to stay. So I told them I would rent a room. After two days, my uncle called me and said I shouldn’t border renting a place. Instead, he asked for the money I was supposed to use in renting the apartment, saying he would use it to arrange somewhere small in his house.
I gave him the money.
When we finally moved out, I was socked to see the new place. There was no window, with holes in the walls and bad roof.
Remember I said he is not so financially comfortable. So he had managed to arrange three rooms on a land he bought many years ago. The rooms for him and his kid are plastered with doors and windows, but the one he gave to my brother and I is nothing to write home about.
I complained and he started shouting, saying because I gave him small money, I feel I have the right to talk to him as i please.
I apologised and let the matter rest. He later came to me saying i shouldnt be angry that he would fix the place as time progresses. its already seven months and he keeps renovating their own rooms but mine.
P.S I have stayed with him for just a year, started staying there after i graduated from uni.
Now, i have been bearing everything they do, from fetching water daily to taking all sort of insults from the wife who always threatens to throw me out.
Sometime i go to my girlfriends place and stay for the weekend, just to distract myself from the situation at home.
Now, my very good friend from school is set to wed this weekend, and i am on her asoebi crew.
Last week i went to my female friends place and spent the week there. Told my uncle and aunt before going. Got back this Tuesday and my aunt started shouting that how will i leave the house for a whole week.
Then she said if i spend another night outside the house, i will come back to meet my property outside the house.
Now i dont know if i should go for the wedding which is in Benin...or forfeit it all because of my aunts threat.
Plus i have paid for my asoebi atire and even sewed it.
Plus she always tries to fraustrate me with her petty chores....she always like: have you fetched water this morning, have you washed plate, have you washed the beans etc. And after all these, i get no food. She will say i am working and should be able to feed my self. Still she will be saying i ought to drop money in the house.
I need advise on what to do please.
