My Childhood Memory
when I was a child, I think that time I remember I was 5years old I live in my grandma [nanay -mother of my father] house, but sad to say I feel that she didn't care about me.
By the way, we are 5 siblings in the family and I'm the 3rd one.
When every time I'm going to school before 1 peso is big enough for our allowance. But when I'm asking my grandma [nanay] for my allowance she always tells me that she has no money left. While my brothers and sisters have their allowance . In my mind there's a question why every time I'm asking for my allowance she always tells me no more money left. But to my brothers and sisters she always gives them allowance . Do my grandma [nanay] loves me? When I have some savings on my piggy bank she always take my savings without my permission . I have a saving before because when my father got home from the city all the money he give to me I will put all of it on my piggy bank. once in a moth month my father visit us in our grandma's [nanay] house, its because he is busy with his work that time.
My Birthday comes
When its my birthday there's always no celebration but for my siblings they always have. I understand that because I know we don't have enough money for it, but I also feel sad slightly, I feel jealous. When I decided to come to my grandma's [lola-mother of my mother] house which near to my grandma [nanay] house, I told to my grandma [lola] and to my auntie about what happen and I cried, because I feel that I'm not belong to them or she didn't like me I think .
So my grandma [lola] and my auntie told me that " don't worry we are here for you, we love you , don't mind what your grandma [nanay] did to you. And they decided that I'm gonna stay with them, so that its I stay with them.
Graduation day of my eldest brother
When that graduation day come [elementary], my auntie told me that I should come and make picture with them and also be part of what ever they gonna do, so I said ok I will be there.
So after I finished all my my duties on house hold chores I left the house and go to the graduation ceremony, but I have have doubt in my mind, what if they ignore me or telling to me that I'm not part of it. But I continue to walk until I see them going home talking and eating bread that time I see them laughing while eating a bread walking in the road, I decided to go the deep wheel near the road just to hide my self to them because I don't want to interrupt them having fun, and I pretend that I didn't see them, I just vowed my head and washed my feet and also drink water. Then I saw my brothers and sisters coming to the deep wheel water to wash their feet , I felt shy that moment I can't say anything even hi to them , I feel uncomfortable .Until they left me on the deep wheel .
After they are gone I continue to walk and decided to go to school even if the ceremony is done, while walking my tears goes down I can't hold it I felt that I don't belong with them. When I been there in the school ground I sat near the stage and cry until my auntie notice me crying, she comes and sat beside me asking why I'm crying what happen , I told her everything and she cried to ,and said to me don't worry I will buy you a bread , stop crying , don't waste your your tears remember were always here for you.
My Graduation Day
This is it, my graduation day in elementary. But before that graduation day comes I decided to come in my nanay's house because I want to borrow some of the nicest dress that my sisters wear it .
My two sister is knowledgeable, they are honor student, always have medal and ribbon while I have nothing .
When I told to my nanay's about the dress that I'm gonna borrow for my graduation day , she refuse and said to me " No , you cannot wear it because you are not honor student, when I heard what my grandma [nanay]said I felt really bad , so I ran away with tear in my eyes.
I told to my lola and to my auntie about what my nanay told to me, they comfort me and said its ok , next time I will buy a nice dress ,don't worry. On graduation day I'm just wear a simple t-shirt and skirt, and guess who is there escorting me, not my lola and not my auntie but my nanay , even if my auntie is there , they decided not to escort me because my nanay is there.
I'm so blessed and thankful to have a lola and my auntie who is always there to support and loving me. I grow up with them until I finished high school.
AND THATS ALL FOR NOW.
