How life has changed. If you told me eleven months ago that I would be living in one of the wealthiest areas in Spain. I would have laughed in your face.

I loved my mother. I was happy to see that she was happy, but it took me a very, very long time to understand how she could so easily uproot our life. It seemed easy for her. There were memories there that I knew we had to leave behind, or else they would eat us alive.

Even in this alien paradise we lived in, I still lived with the pains of my past.
