Let me start from the beginning, I was born into a family of seven, and as the first child, I had that huge responsibility on my shoulders.

You know, having to be the first in everything in life, society and family. it was huge and it played a significant role in my life. I had one problem, I was scared. Not scared to die, it was something odd.

I was scared of something, like as if someone invisible was watching me, not a nice looking spirit. No. it had Horns, blazing eyes like as if I was in hell. Am not possessed. Like I said. I am scared.
