'I used to think my mum was insane while I was growing up, we used to live like cats and dogs, if she is not beating me up, I am hiding somewhere little did I know that she was just scared to let me go 🤔 and was preparing me for being responsible 🤣🤣 Now I appreciate our time more, I did hate when she would kick my bedroom door at 6.00 am 😭😭😭😭, mum, that was disrespectful, again, I won't take it personally 🤣🤣🤣It's called TIME. Now bills wakes me up at 4.00,' she posted.
