i need an answer.

I am MARY ANNE THERESE BORJA. Existed in this world for 17 years now. Turning 18 this coming OCTOBER 8.

I've been living for 17 yrs, and yet, there's a question left unanswered from my past. And im still looking for an answer. Where did it all start? Well, let me tell you my story.

As a child, I grew up from a simple yet not normal family. cause, I don't live with my parents. I live with my auntie's, uncle's, and my grand mother. I'm a fun, loving and cheerful child. I do get awards way back then.

I knew from the very start that my parents are separated. As a child, I thought my situation is normal. There's nothing wrong and I feel like everything was fine.

But when I entered elementary, I realized that my situation is not normal from the situations of my friends. I started asking my auntie's about my situation. Why did my parents need to separate? And I got no answer. They keep on telling me that, it's ok. Everything is fine and there's nothing wrong. So I stopped asking. I keep on pretending that it's ok with me. But until now, I'm looking for some answer.

Growing up from a broken family is not that easy. I always get jealous every time I see my friends with their mom and dad. I keep on wishing and hoping that one day, my mom and dad will be together again. I know it's so impossible to happen. But it's all I ever wanted.

I'm hoping that one day, I can find the answer to my question.
