I have my flaws

I make mistakes

But I'm myself

I'm not ashamed

That's who I am, oh

That's who I am, oh

That's who I am, oh

I have my doubts

I lose my strength

Sometimes I fall, but I don't break

That's who I am, oh

That's who I am, oh

That's who I am, oh

"Who I am": The Score

It felt strange to be back in the apartment

It felt strange to be back in the apartment. The place that was my home for almost all my life. And now the place that I wanted to avoid at all costs.

There was a strange smell as soon as I got inside.

"I know this smell" Zane said while sniffing the air.

"I know it too, drugs" I replied. I've smelt this scent on Sarah and my father when I was younger.

The whole apartment was a mess. Clothes were scattered everywhere, with a lot of dirty dishes and pizza leftovers on the floor.

My mother has always been a tidy freak. To see all this mess means she hit her lowest point. I wonder the cause of that.

I went to her room to pack some clothes for her.

In the closet in the underwear drawer, there was a box. A blue wooden box.

Out of curiosity, I opened it and I wish I didn't.

I sat on the floor while reading the documents.

A marriage certificate, no longer valid. Sarah's birth certificate. My mother's custody papers and the apartment contract.

What made my hands shake was the last document. My birth certificate.
