Mommy’s Random Thoughts

(2:13 AM Wed.) I guess I know what cat to get if I ever had one XD. But, I'm playing a game and at the end of the event, you are assigned/recommended a cat that is best for you or just like you...it's actually crazy how accurate some Chinese gacha game accurately gave me a cat breed. Especially the last few sentences. It's crazy!

(5:29 PM Wed.) There's a boy just only a year younger than my baby brother who comes by to hang out with him. He's not a happy looking kid and obviously has a troubled home life, though our family doesn't exactly know how. We have a glimpse as to what is going on with him as he often comes over to our house to escape his own, but he never smiles and generally looks deeply depressed. He, as well as three other siblings, are being raised by their grandmother, who I don't know if she's abusive or just really neglectful towards this young man. This boy, we'll call him A, came over in the early morning cause his family locked him outside the house and asked our parents to take him to school (which they immediately said yes to, but not before asking him about his grandma and if she knows where he's at). A apparently has some learning issues or speech issues. He stutters and doesn't speak up for himself...which causes him to be pushed around A LOT by his siblings and their grandmother's friend who lives with them. He seems to have such a bad life, and it doesn't excuse his siblings bullying of him, but if he's this sad...I wonder how his older and younger siblings may feel as well, and if they are cruel as a means of coping with their troubled lives. A was driven by our parents to his school and our baby brother joined for the ride so he would feel more comfortable, as he seems really timid around adults. It turns out his bus was just running late, which is why he wandered away from his home today, but our mom and dad saw his school bus and were able to put him on it themselves. Our mom was the one who walked him to it and made sure he was okay and comfortable before leaving, but A told our mom before he departed: "I don't know why they lock me out. I don't know why they don't like me." We are afraid he might harm himself if left alone for too long, so our mom invited him over after school, on the condition he let his family know where he'll be. I cried for him when recounting today's events to my older sisters, it just hit me hard how sad A is and I don't know how or why his family would be this way towards him :(. I want to hug him so badly...and I almost asked if I could today, but I don't want to make him scared or uncomfortable–but my LORD, do I really want to hold him tight so he knows that someone cares. I'm starting to cry again, so this will be all that's said.
