Short Ugly Family Stories

  • What’s it like to have a family of terrible relatives?

    At two or three years old, due to a preference for sons over daughters, the protagonist was abandoned by her parents. Twenty-five years later, having established a successful life with her own home and car, her biological parents reappear, demanding she relinquish her assets to their son. Her life takes another turn when a woman, claiming to be her biological mother Mary, shows up at her workplace dressed in an eclectic style, stirring emotions of rejection she's dealt with since childhood. Although raised by adoptive parents who cherished her, the sudden return of her birth mother challenges her sense of identity and security. I hope to use this story as a negative material to help people understand and care more about each other.
