Chapter9

#Chapter9

Last year my mom lost her elder brother, Tao oh's father and due to some unclear explanation that my mom gave me, Tao oh started living in our house. Tao oh father's death is something I knew my mom would never recover from and sometimes when I walked into their room, I would see my mom keeping something which I knew was one of their child hood pictures hurriedly under a pillow or a blanket with her eyes red.

Even though Tao oh was given the whole visitor's room which was next to mine, he still uses my room more than his which annoyed me but I kept my silence. With Tao oh in the house my room was no longer safe and my cookies were always disappearing.

In school Tao oh was everything I wasn't and I always felt jealous of him. He was popular, strong and lady-like and even though I've spent my whole life in that school I felt like an outcast compared toTao oh who knew more than me.
