Childhood (1996-2008)

I was born to a couple less happier than they seemed to be.

He was twenty-seven and she was twenty-three.

Some said it was love at first sight, others said they were the only suitable fits in sight.

He raised me to be a warrior ; she raised me to be a worrier. They still fight till this day : the warrior and the worrier, I mean - not the couple, heaven forbid.

I was the unhappiest spoiled child in the neighbourhood.

I sometimes pretended to talk to the moon.

Adolescence (2008-2014)

How it started : Bloodbath with maths. No, sorry, against.

How it ended : War was over.

The rest was mostly a blur (=what people say when they don’t want to traumatise another).

Early adulthood (2014-2018)

Finding 1 : Learning a new language felt like brain transplant.

Finding 2 : It was easier to be Katniss Tris Hazel Grace Lancaster than to be myself.

Conclusion : “I have to get out of here”.

So I did.

Present (2018-2025)

To be continued.
