At that time, his father all day drinking, easily beating the shadow of time lingering in my mind, I turned into a timid, low self-esteem, introverted little girl.

Bar-burst a balloon, just 1-63 cents! Imagine, good luck, then one cents could be eating a banana. However, my money was Hermes Kelly Bag never more than 50 cents. I dared not risk collision about luck, but also many people dared not want any little pocket money. After all, there is alcohol in a father39s home, the adventure is a very dangerous thing.
