Today, I want to share the story of a girl who had just one simple dream to make her mother happy. That girl was me.9Please respect copyright.PENANAuxks1J4FsQ

I always believed that if I could get a good job and become independent, I’d be able to bring a smile to my mom’s face. But destiny had other plans for me.9Please respect copyright.PENANAWFF6jlCb5H

One day, my mother decided it was time for me to get married. I didn’t have the courage to say no. I stayed quiet maybe because deep down, I didn’t want to hurt her. Soon, my aunt brought a proposal, and I was only told the boy’s name.9Please respect copyright.PENANAuzHPAbK8GK

Curious and a little nervous, I asked my best friend to check his Instagram. But his profile was private. So, we looked him up on Facebook. There was just one small, round profile picture. Looking at that photo, I jokingly said, “He looks like the father of two kids!”9Please respect copyright.PENANAa4ZqnRpUWv

I laughed it off. It was just a silly comment. I never imagined that those few words would plant such deep confusion in my heart.9Please respect copyright.PENANAsIxD11qwsF

Two days later, the boy made his Instagram public. When I saw his pictures properly for the first time… I froze.9Please respect copyright.PENANA1zh8n910sS
