1.7 - Six Years Old
-----
Nine years ago was when I first obtained the ability to see ghosts.
But, long before that, a much larger thing in my life happened. I had just started going to elementary school, and it was right when I started to realize the cruel state of the reality around me.
One week after I started elementary school, my parents divorced.
Even after living together as a family for six years, Dad found a woman who he fell in love with. The two secretly dated for years before the divorce happened, and Mom caught up about one year before the divorce.
Ever since then, they've been fighting with one another before the divorce happened, and I was in the middle of it all. Mom accused Dad openly of cheating, and Dad couldn't handle the blames and pressure that Mom threw at him. In the end, Dad called the divorce, which puts the six-year-old me and my Mom at a heavy position because Mom doesn't have a job.
