Prologue
We live in a modern world where everyone's dream is to become very successful; be it male or female.
Gone are those days where gender discrimination was rampant, where the mindset of 'every girl will end up in the kitchen and having no need to further her education' and his deprived of her right to dream.
Every father's dream is too see their children successful. Change is constant; our parent have moved with the time.
Did my parent really move with time?
My name is Dunmininu (make me happy). Am I really a source of happiness to me parent or a curse to them? Questions I keep asking myself.

This is my story;
Dunmininu is a girl from an extended family of 7: My father(Mr.Akinola), mum(Omolade),my step mum(Tope), my step brother(Juwonlo) and sister(Temidun)and myself(Dunmininu).
A family where they have decided not to move with the time.
My father is still a man with the mindset of "female child ends up in the kitchen".
My mum and step mum were not opportuned to further their education so is my elder sis (she isn't the serious type though).
Being the only child of my mum (the 2nd wife) I had lots of dreams for myself and will do anything to achieve them. My mum was a victim (she had to give up on her dreams) but I made a promise to myself that my case will be different.
The path I thread wasn't an easy one, a journey filled with hatred, deceit, injustice, hardship, pain, anger and lastly Love.
nice one
