I lost track of you after you moved, thinking you hadn't been back on FanStory. Now I don't know what chapters I've read and what I haven't. But I guess it's time to find out. Thanks for sharing. I don't usually offer suggestions, figuring you'll find them anyway. But here are a couple.

These glimpses of what was [we're] connected to something I learned just yesterday.

It was around the time my [my] natural father and mother split up.

I am settling into the flow of your chapters. Now I look forward to reading them. Your imagery is so vivid. I love "like a slow-moving pickpocket or nervous as a jack in the box. gayla

And another of your book's chapters crosses my screen.
I am enjoying (is that the wrong word when this whole thing was so traumatic) this journey through your past. You describe it all so vividly, it captures me and leaves wanting to know more
I did spot one little blip you may want to address

Scents of jasmine rise, bread(non)
**Rice ... and nan

Thank you once more for sharing.

Thank you for sharing. Just a few glitches:
I knew that look I hoped I didnt see. - (didn't)
...dismissed him with a waive. - (wave)
I was sure I feeling Mr. D's intense gaze. - I was sure I (was) feeling
Best wishes.

There's so many stories of families that have gone through similar things when the kids end up being the ones hurt from family dysfunction. I don't know if this is a true story or not, if it is thank you for sharing. It's always vulnerable to put things out there. It's nice for people to get to know others beyond the surface.
I met my dad when I was 12 so I can relate to some of your story.

    It is autobiographical in nature. This is book two of the spirit series.The first one is called "Ghost". It's on the shelf right now. My second book is almost done.It's called "Spectre" yeah for christmas from new year. The third book partially written. It's called "Apparition" extreme abuse starvation, let's cover up coercion, falsifying records. It's just a matter destruction of girls.I was the one came out. Involve social services here in Canada. With my family's high up, and therefore haitians cover up all the abuse.All the terrible things they did. I got tired of being called a liar. A thief, a bunch of other names.My family dreamed up. So I let it blow out my proverbial pen. Thank you for your thoughtful review.And you certainly have good insight! Thank you also for your time.And great rating, I hope that you and will be doing well!

You did a really excellent job with this one. Your punctuation and grammar were very good, and the story, of course --that part's a given-- was riveting. At least you have some good nourishment in you; that makes difficult circumstances easier to conquer. xo

Here we go again. You get a chance to have a nice meal and relax, but it sounds like it won't be for long. Somehow I missed when and how you met the Indian woman. But she sounds kind. I have no idea what could possibly happen next. I'll see you in the next chapter.

    Life is never smooth how long is it it's true. I went through many ups and Downs. Mostly because I didn't know what the heck I was doing in a lot of instances and some because there was no choice. I appreciate your review and happy to see you here! You have great insight and wonderful comments on. Thank you for reading and hanging in there with me!

So a more open-minded Indian couple took you into their home and fed you dinner, but there was an argument at the end, presumably over how long you were going to be allowed to stay there. I, too, would probably look for a welcome escape in Classic Hollywood movies.
One suggestion:
I stood up with them Mrs. D who waived me back to my seat.
I stood up with them. Mrs. D waved me back to my seat.

It sounds as if Mr. D doesn't want you around. I'm hoping you're wanting these published. If so, you're going to need to a lot of editing. The story is great and needs to be told.

"Joo hungry? She asked,"Sit." (TRY - "Joo hungry?" she asked, "Sit.")

I stood up with them Mrs. D who waived me back to my seat. (them.)

"Joo can stay down here." She said. (here," she)

I kept the volume low and sat down on the old couch. (you can omit 'down', it's understood)

Despite this I began to nodd off. (nod)
