Chapter 1_ " Sophia's Pov (Funny but Strange)

I have always wondered why my life could never be perfect for once. I never asked for much or did wrong to anyone but the tragedies I have experienced made me feel doubtful. Standing in front of the Doctor as he told me about the urgency of my mother's surgery made me realize how unfair life has been to us. We don't deserve this at all! When I was much younger my family was happier and content. Though we were poor my Mom and Dad never failed to give their very best for us and we lived just fine. Until that day when everything changed, that day marked the beginning of our sufferings and till today we still haven't moved on completely. Mom got a call that Dad had been injured on the site, he had fallen from an uncompleted building at the construction site where he worked and died on the spot. He had missed his steps while working. My mother had cried so much that nothing or anyone could calm her down. She stayed like a soulless person for about a week until she realized that she still had the two of us, my younger brother and me. It rained heavily that night adding more to our misery. He didn't deserve it, He was a good man, a cheerful soul, and did everything he could for his family. I didn't even have the guts to stare at his dead body at the hospital, I was just too traumatized by the news alone but my brother Steven had seen him, He had stared at him for so long that even the Doctors and Nurses got worried. After what seemed like forever he walked to me where I sat and hugged me, He was the only one that didn't cry. "Funny but strange ", I thought to myself. Life was never the same after that, Mom worked less and I had to take up most of the responsibilities at home. I changed, we all changed. Despite it all I never gave up on my dreams to be a story writer in the entertainment industry, it's something I have wanted but I always got turned down either for being a woman or you came across as a pervert. Who said it was only the actresses that had it rough?
