The Wallflower's Secret

The world is cruel.

Having your parents abandon you because of their own mistake was like a stone in my heart. Being disregarded like a dog left to die on the street brought tears to my eyes. When my entire family thought I brought disgrace to our name was disheartening. No one then and even now, no one stood up for me. I was their blood, I was their relative, I was as much part of their life as they were part of mine. I never knew what that word meant until life dealt me this shitty hand and left me to rot.

But I won't let the world win. I will overcome every adversity and deal with anything life throws my way because of the kindness of one lady. She showed me that even though the world is cruel and filled with darkness, their was good that still remain. Thanks to this lady, I have the will to continue my life and do better for the "mistake" that brought "shame" to people I once called family.

But first I have to survive high school.
