My close friend bullies me because of my home situation. My mother is unemployed and my father works as a gardener. My friend doesn’t believe me when I tell her about my future wishes. She thinks that just because my family doesn’t have a big house, I can’t be someone special in my community one day. Whatever I try to do to prove to her that I can work, she replies saying, “You can’t do that.”

I ask myself every day why someone would think that about me. I took my decision and told myself that I will never say no to whatever I wish to have one day. I can do anything I want. I will fight until I win.
