Chapter 1: The Family...

In this 1st entry.. we'll be looking at Little Cathie's family.. her mom and dad.. and how Little Cathie was brought up...

This girl, let's just call her 'Little Cathie'... Little Cathie was born into a quite well-to-do family.. She still has both of her parents... She has one elder brother and one lil sis... They all live in a big house.. and they all seems happy... but in truth... it is not a happy family at all...

Little Cathie was born in 1984... at that time.. her daddy didn't want her.. when he knew that it was to be a girl, he hated her... when Little Cathie's mom delivered her into this world, her daddy wasnt there... he didnt even try to see her at the hospital... In the end, when it was time for them to go home from the hospital, he didnt even try to pick them up... He asked the driver to fetch them.. not even using the luxurious car that they had.. but using an old car... oh it was so different to the time when her brother was born.. when Little Cathie arrived home, her daddy didnt even touch her.. didnt hug her.. til some months later... but.. she was already feeling rejected by her daddy... if anyone ask her.. what childhood memories can she remember.. Little Cathie will answer that she does not remember anything.. be it good or bad memory.. it's like she didnt want to remember at all... bacause there was no happy memories...

Here's a story about her parents...
Little Cathie's dad was born to a very poor family.. he was the last child.. and his parents didnt love him at all.. he was used to be abused when he was a child.. he had a rough upbringing where he needed to fight for everything he needed.. he needed to find his own food and everything else.. he wasnt happy as a child.. and it carries through to his married life... he became a man who thought that money is everything... the only way for him to show love is through money.. and his wife and children should be thankful because he had provided them with more than what they needed... he didnt know how to show love in any other way... he became this scary dad.. he became this authority firgure... who just loves to beat his children and wife.. every word that came out of his mouth hurts the listnener... he didnt know how to say love.. he shows it in all the wrong ways... to the point that his children and wife do not listen to words he says.. as they hurt..
Now about Little Cathie's mom... she was born into a family without warmth too.. her parents are not rich.. but not poor.. she was also the last child.. til her father marry again.. and then she has a younger step-brother... contrary to Little Cathie's dad's family, her mom's family are quite successful.. most of them became rich... when Little Cathie's mom was 12 years old, her mom died, and her dad remarried.. she became an outcast.. she was not loved by her own dad.. she was taken away from her hometown... and was put into her elder sis's home.. in there, she was treated as a maid... didnt go to school.. just stayed at home and did all the household chores... and she was raped by her own brother-in-law... and when she was sixteen, her family didnt want her anymore.. she was treated as a useless thing... her dad gave her to anyone who wanted her... and that's when she met Little Cathie's dad.. he was a worker in her sis' store... and they married..

But it wasnt a happy union at all... Little Cathie's mom was not happy... at all.. she was forced into a marriage without love.. she was just given to any man who wanted her.. and thus, after she marries, she tried to find her own love.. she hoped from one man to another... and this was all that Little Cathie remembered.. all she remembered was when her dad found out that her mom slept with other guys.. all that Little Cathie remember is that they were shouting at each other.. and always talked about divoce.. she always remember hearing glasses being thrown.. or when her mom just cried and cried and cried.. and she remembers that at one point, her dad nearly killed her mom.. Little Cathie wept, just like the little girl she was...

and so, that was a little background information about Little Cathie... Little Cathie did not have a very happy childhood at all.. she was not loved... and she did not know how it felt to be loved... and this will be the one thing that really affect the way she behaves in the future... in search of that special someone.. who can love her... appreciate her... and support her... but it will be for another time...
