Mum took my younger sister while I lived with my grandparents. Growing up, I didn’t get much parental love but things were okay because my grandparents took good care of me. But when I found out that I needed some RM80,000 to study in Japan, I felt hopeless, depressed and suicidal all over again. Luckily, my teacher sensed that something was amiss and informed the school counsellor who stepped in and saved my life. Thanks to Ho’s suggestion, I met so many Japanese people and they complimented my proficiency in the language.
