So do you have a boyfriend yet? my mom asked me a few nights ago during our weekly call. I looked at my partner of six years, who was sitting next to me, before laughing off the question nervously. A 25-year-old girl who hasn't ever dated ― I wondered if my mom really believed it.
My parents have very specific dreams about every aspect of my life, including my romantic life. Corado's appearance, his upbringing and the way he lives do not reflect what they deem to be partner material.
They loved telling me the story of how I was their 'miracle baby' because they thought they might have been too old to have another child. Following that story, they would tell me how I was born prematurely, weighing less than 2 kilograms (4.4 pounds), with paper-thin skin and suffering from sepsis.
Family is very important, and family members must always take care of each other. So it's no surprise that when I decided to move abroad to continue my education after high school, my parents wanted me to move to Canada, where my sister already lived.
