I spent alot of time pretending
I was smart
I was clever
I was beautiful
I was loved, by my family
Alot of time wishing my mother would be like my friend's mothers.Supportive of my dreams
"Then go" her mother said quietly
I marched in behind her,grabbing my things from the living room, the shoes in my hands
"Where do you think you're going?" Uncle stood in front of the front door
Jing Mei narrowed her eyes."Move"
"This is how you respect your elders" he said bitterly
"Move"
There was nothing to do. I left, heart in pieces. There was no more pretending
Now I knew the truth
They would never be supportive or loving
"You leave this house" Uncle stood in the front porch,screaming after me,"You're nothing to me"
They're nothing to me
