My mother died of illness when I was 5 years old, my father remarried 2 years later. Living with my stepmother, I was not pampered and loved. Instead I have to clean, do housework. Dad has a new baby, so he doesn’t love me like before. Sometimes when I see you have enough parents and love, I crave so much. If only my mother had been alive, things would have been different.
The older I get, the more I understand what is the sentence “Several generations of casters have bones / Several generations of step-aunts love their husband’s children”. Naturally, the stepmother has to raise other people, how can it be comfortable and gentle. I gradually learned to endure and get used to it. Until I was in 10th grade, my father unfortunately passed away because of a traffic accident. Being an orphan, I was heartbroken. Maybe I was an unhappy child, when my parents didn’t give me a full childhood, they kept leaving me one by one.
Living with my stepmother, she didn’t have much money because she still had two children, so I finished 12th grade and quit. I went to the city to work for a relative’s restaurant. But following working for 5 months, I took a break and went to work in the supermarket to clean up, the salary was also a bit better. Having money, I kept some food and pepper and sent it back to my hometown for my stepmother to raise my children. I love my stepmother, understand her difficulty, so I want to make up for it. For me, my stepmother is now like my biological mother, because in the end, I only have her as a relative.
Working in the city for 3 years, I decided to go back to my hometown to work as a worker, spending here is also not expensive. From the day I went to work, I had money, and when I returned to my hometown, my stepmother loved me more, and the children often expected her to come back. But every time I go home, I feel lonely, because my parents are no more. If only they were still there, I would have been able to go to university and pursue my dream doctor job. But all my dreams had to be shelved because I might not afford higher education.
