命运之变

When I got to where I am living now,I thought that I was going to just get a job and make ends meet.I didn't think that a person like me could get yet another chance of doing things right.But thankfully,I was wrong.I was able to make a family right off the bat.My blood turned their backs on me after I got married.The only person I keep in contact with is my mother.She lives in Ohio and shows little to no interest in seeing me.That's the way it's always been for me... no roots,no real solid ties.But the boy who saved me took me home.And they now call me their own.They have helped me in so many ways,I don't think I will ever be able to pay them back.
