Here I just can’t understand some people, of which there are so many nowadays. They all try to achieve something by other people’s hands, without making a single effort.
Since childhood I knew that I was destined for a hard fate. I grew up in a poor rural family, with one mother. My mother kept telling me that I had to be strong and try for my life. And I did. I went to school in the city and got a good job. Then I met my husband and got married.
For the first three years we rented an apartment in the capital. But thanks to our hard work we bought our own apartment. And then it started – even my relatives, whom I had never even seen, remembered me. Everyone wanted to come to visit, to the capital. But no one cared that I have my own life and I’m not waiting for anyone.
I was told by my third cousin, and she begged me tearfully that her daughter could stay with me for a couple of weeks, until she got into university. I already felt sorry for them, after all, I myself was in this situation. I took my relative in.
She went to university and since then it’s been two months, not weeks. I began to ask her when she would get an apartment. And I got the answer – don’t you feel sorry for her?
Of course I feel sorry. I don’t have to live with anyone for five years. After a week I evicted a relative. Now I am the main enemy for all my relatives, but at least I have peace of mind living with my husband.
