Average Joe In The House. sKy

The first report we see on The New Paper today is a lady by the name of Madam Hayati Jantan, who at 12 years old found out by accident that she was an adopted child, and only now that she decided to find her biological family.

What if one day someone walks into your house, and tells you that he/she is your long-lost sibling? Will you believe that person, or will you think that he/she is an idiot and kick him/her out of the house?

At the age of 10 months, my biological mother decided to leave me and my father, eloping with another guy. At the age of 3 years old, my father died. I was lucky that my father's elder sister, my auntie, decided to take care of me as if I'm hers. If she didn't, I probably would have ended up in an orphanage, and get adopted by another family.

What if I really was sent to an orphanage by my auntie and grandmother, and then I get adopted? Will I be able to know at that point of time that I actually lost both my parents, and that someone that I don't know is adopting me? I was only 3 years old at that time, and sad to say I don't even remember my father passing away in an accident. All I have are pictures of the funeral to remind me of his death.

If I was adopted, and I decide to find my auntie and grandmother now, will they accept me when they see me? Or will they ask me to get out of their lives? Or will they act as if they don't know me, even though they do? I always get the shivers when I think of this question.

People, even though your parents nag at you, scold you or even hit you, it's all for your own good. Treasure your parents. You only have 2 in the whole world. Don't regret not taking care of them when they die.
