My Memoir

Broken. My heart crashed so much when I found out why my parent broke up when I was only 1 year old and my big sister is 5 years old that time, I grow up without my father and mother in my side until my 10th birthday I live without them. I grow up and I lived in my titas house that I called mommy, she and her husband guard me which is I prefer to be my parents because I know there love to me is so pure and they make me feel like I'm their real child but suddenly  they had three children but they still considered me as the eldest of their children, I'm so blessed and thankful for having them in my 11 years old in my

life because when I'm 13 my real mother decided that we have to go to cagayan because at that time she lived there, so our uncle took us there to cagayan de oro when we arrive I was shocked because she had a man with her and then there she let us know that she had a boyfriend. The first time I saw him I'm never comfortable with him because for me that time he was just stranger to me. But the fact that we to be together with my mother it seems okay to me, because we had no chance but to accept him because he loves our mother, but our life there was difficult because their only job there is to sell foods to vendor in devisoria and anywhere, i feel sorry to my mother because sometimes my mom was the only one who sells the food and it's to heavy for her because it's a big basket where the foods is in, so I decided to go with her even I'm so young I just don't want to make my mom feel so tired when she is home and I want to help her even it's so hard to me to study and work just to help my mom and also for our daily needs. But i day the boyfriend of my mom was always drunk and it didn't seem right that he was always drunk and it was actually new year that time and they had a fight and it’s also because of his attitude that’s always drunk. So my mom decided that we go somewhere because she don't want to celebrate new year with that man, we to ayala in cagayan de oro. Me my mother and sister celebrated a new year in ayala it seem like plaza my heart was so sad and happy at the same time because I just realize how my mother suffer just to make us a better life. I cried that time not because I felt sorry for out situation that time it is because I'm so proud of my mother ability. There was so many tragedy happened that time but I don't want tell it all because I don't want to remember all of the things happened to us there. But there was a typhoon came and we move always a place like evacuation center and anywhere.

But all of that things that my mother suffer to much, my tita from here called us to make a plan that they would take us  there and bring us here, because they also heard of what happened there. The who help us to bring us here back was my mommy nita the older sister of my mother we’re so thankful that she helped us to bring us back to our home which is here in cotabato she also the one who enrolled here in note dame of midsayap college and pay the tuition every year without her we have nothing and by the mercy of god my big sister will become nurse soon. And I'm also incoming college this year, I'm always praying to how good he is with us and also my tita who also help us. But now she and her husband who live and working so hard to us in Switzerland are always full of blessed because of their kindness and now we're living a happy life and waiting to them to go home here. Even though our life was so broken and hard then,  now was so filled of happiness with my family even though it is still not complete, I'm always thankful and happy of what I have now
