Imagine growing up feeling like the black sheep of your family, the unwanted child. For one individual, this was a harsh reality. Their father believed they were the result of an affair, and their mother blamed them for the ensuing marital strife.

But our protagonist, still nursing the wounds of the past, refuses to attend. What happens next? Let's delve into this emotionally charged story. 😔
