Description
I grew up in a big family. Things were good when I was young, but when my dad took a second wife, my parents started to fight. Things were so bad at home I often spent the night at a friend's place. She had a 25-year-old brother who took care of me. He bought my school uniforms and even my sanitary pads. We got married and three years later he told me he had a son whose mother had just passed away. So we took in the boy. I had two children of my own shortly after that. I had been teaching for some years but transferred to the hotel industry because the pay was better. I was doing a lot of traveling for my job and that's when my own marriage started to take a turn.
