yesterday was sad...=' (

it was my friends birthday celebration yesterday, but sadly I didn't make it. the time was too late to travel, and the worse part is I am one of the 18 candles..ended up sending her a message.

now did I tell you it was the worse? because something more terrible happened yesterday. okay here's the story:

after having our Physical examination and eating some snacks at Mcdonald's, I went to my aunt's store because earlier that day my mom recieved a text message that she has to go there because of emergency. I met first with my mom and my cousin ( kissa) before going there. we waited for our ride and a friend passed by but kissa didn't want to get in. and so we waited still. then when we got to the store, I noticed that kissa and her mom was not in a good condition. My mom ask me to go with kissa to the store to buy something, and so we went with our other cousin (  jennifer). I saw that friend who passed by earlier whom kissa didn't want to get a ride with and so my cousin (Gilbert) drove the car. when we got to the market, we decided to eat at the mall some tempura (kissa's favorite). and there I discovered that Kissa's mom hurt her earlier that day. she has bruises all over her body and her face was like bloating or something..I asked why did her mom do that to her, she said that it was just a little misunderstanding but her mom is so brutal. she wants all things to done immediately. Jennifer said that she tried to stop her mom, and protect kissa. they told me everything that happened. kissa was slapped, choaked, hit by the bags, clothes, heel of my mom's sandal because it was left there, and so many more. I just can't understand how could her own mom do that to her. kissa is a very nice girl. it seemed like kissa got used to it because she said that there was no day that her mom won't get mad at her since her mom's arrival from Jordan. earlier that day, she stayed in the room and just felt relieved when my mom arrived and talked to my aunt. she told me that when she heard my mom's voice, she said to herself  " thank God aunt Gemma is here". I feel so lucky for having parents who are very supportive and loving, and I feel so sorry for my cousin. even the clothes she wear have got to have the agreement of her mom. we know that we could report it, but she is afraid and she loves her mom. after all she's her mom. we've been trying to make her mom understand what she is doing, and the effect it will cause to Kissa. i just hope and pray it'll all change. i discovered also that, that guy who drove the car earlier whom kissa didn't want to get a ride with is her mother's bf. he is the root cause of all of this.

so many things happened and I can't type them all up here. I just hope that you guys/gals who read this blog will love your children and please do discipline them in the right way. YOu never know how your child feel for you. it will be full of hatred and sorrow if you did it the wrong way.

For Kissa, be strong and have faith to God. we are always here for you. love you cuz!!
