We came to her house which had 3 rooms, I was going to be sleeping at my little sister’s room and my brother and daddy were going to sleep in the extra room they had. I thought I was going to get along with my little sister, but she was to spoiled as my little brother was. Somehow I was jealous, because they had everything I never had.

She left me crying, I wanted to go back to El Salvador were mommy and daddy were, I missed them so much.

However my mom never noticed what I was going through, I hide it from everyone in my family, no one knew how much I was suffering. As the years were passing, I became more depressed because I was bullied at school and I keep cutting myself. My relationship with my mom was okay but she still said things to me that made me more depressed, however at this point I was used to
