I was sitting in the peaceful grass. I can hear the birds hum. I can see the white soft looking clouds up the blue sky. It was a very light and sunny Friday. And it was my eleventh birthday.I am at the meadow near our field to celebrate my birthday alone. As always. I live with my biological parents, but we never celebrated my birthday together.Ever since I grew up, I noticed how different my family is from others. Like today, they never celebrated even one of my birthdays. They never drop me off nor fetch me in my first day of school. They were never there. So I had to make everything alone.Hindi ko maiwasan ang hindi mainggit noon. I was just six when I knew everything about me is different. Gusto ko man magtanong ay hindi ko na nagawa. Hanggang ngayon."Mama, sabi po ni teacher, kailangan daw po umattend ang parents-""Sa Yaya mo ka lumapit." then she walks away.I was left there with the paper my teacher told us to bring back to her once the guardian signed it.We have a maid.
