Atlas- "I again made the same mistake". I sighed.
I chuckled and smiled and recall my pasts memories, how much I have grown from those mistakes.
This is a story of me, who faced a normal life and normal hardships.
Nothing special.
On my 12th birthday, I saw my mom crying for the first time. The reason was that my brother who was 20 years old vented out his feelings and everything.
He talked about how parents were hard on him and beat and how they did not believed him when he was telling him the truth but they believed a complete stranger. I cried my heart out telling them to stop arguing and but still argued. I beg them again and again. I even told my brother to hurt me so that he would stop arguing and stop my mom from crying. I even told him to hit me with belt. So that he could be relieved from the pains and memories which haunted him. But still they did not stop.
After a few hours, I realized, why did they argue on my birthday. They could have done that on any other day. They made me cry and did not even apologized for it. From that point, a feeling arose, they do not truly care about me. I have to look after myself. I have to be selfish and make myself happy. After I realized that, I stopped crying. They I looked at them, they were still crying and arguing. I left that room and went to get an Ice-cream from the fridge. Then I sat alone and started eating it. I realized, a part of me broke, I lost some of my emotions. But I sat there eating ice-cream and trying to make myself happy.
