I am a Former Slave, I've escaped, and now I am free of slavery. I was a slave since my childhood, I escaped when I was 16, also when I was about to get married, my girl that I was about to get married, died one month ago after we met. So after 2 years I came to Canada, Toronto and I was no longer a slave at the age of 16. My name is Bob Smith, and I am free of slavery.
Me and my family live in a small house, in Toronto. With 7 people living in my house, including me. So my father, mother, wife, two kids, my brother, and my sister. Our house is pretty small to fit all those people in it, because it only has 1 floor, and we divide the rooms, so we know how much can fit in each room. Also our house is very old, rusty, and its starting to fall apart. We hang buckets on the floor, when it rains, so it doesn't get the floor all wet.
So right now I am 26 years old, and my wife doesn't like me very much, she wanted to marry somebody else. which I want to find out. So my two kids are named Charlie Bob, and George Bob, I get along with my kids and parents very well, but sometimes family problems start to occur and I get all the blame. I think I should be in- charge of my family, because everything would be neater. and better.
I forgot to tell you where I was born, I was born in Canada but was born also as a slave, I would not have any rights, if I asked I would be punished, there was no school, no education, all I had to do was more and more chores everyday. My Life was Hell for 13 years. After I turned 14, I made a plan to escape, the plan was so long to understand it took me 3 years to do it stealthy, so when I turned 16 I made my move and escaped, and went to Canada, Toronto.
