He had no idea what lies beyond there, all he knew was he needs to be there. He was working abroad not by choice but by certain circumstances he can't escape of. Having a sickly sister that for those years they've thought she only disliked (squeamish) the sun rays. Later they realized, she has lupus. As she gets older, the damages are aggravating every year until she found herself scared of going outdoors. She preferred to stay inside and be content to what the television is trying to tell her. His mother endured almost every struggle and hardship from becoming a single mother ever since his father died from a horrible accident.
He loved his sister very much and this is the reason why he had accepted the job abroad even though he has so many preconceived ideas how tragic life living there. He has a loyal friend who used to play fortune teller and pretend to be clairvoyant (clairvoyance) scared him that he would only suffer overseas. He thought so too, but that was the only chance for him. And he fled. He remembered experiencing adversity from childhood up to now and he believed himself as an indefatigable person. He knew that life is not a bed of roses and before you witness the rainbow you have to feel the tremendous storm.
The agency that had sent him abroad used subterfuge tactics to earned money and the work he was told was not the one he has to be done. He ended up fooled by unscrupulous personnel that willfully gained at the expense of other people. He was told to be a mechanic for an automobile company but what is waiting for him was a houseboy doing errands for selfish rich people. He endured insurmountable obstacles in order to survive. Every night his mind is running when he could escape and how. Then, the perfect time came. He's free now and worked as a self-employed (freelance)mechanic of Audi motors but still, he thought on becoming a freelance automobile marketer in the future.
Isn't it great? Life is full of surprises.

Thank you, I tried to just now. :)
Hello, Sir! How are you? Thanks for reminding me. :)
Hello, Icha! Thanks for reading this! I'm glad you like it.
By the way, my name is Risty not Rusty. :)
Hi Rusty,
The nice story and your writing is understandable for me. I like the last sentence of your story 'Life is full of surprises'. It is the true fact, just do the good things and let the good surprises come to us :).
Thanks for sharing your story with us, here I can learn new vocabulary as well.
Thank you so much, Teacher, for such elaborative explanation. I was wrong about squeamish, I didn't understand the definition correctly.
Hello, Teacher Tanya! Thank you for your corrections, at least you have a softer version. :D
I would like to ask questions;
Why we can't be squeamish about the sun? I thought the UV rays can give us some sensations that we don't like to feel. Please explain further teacher. Thank you.
Where can we use clairvoyance? this is a faculty of perceiving things--I meant by "playing" is funnily pretending yes as a clairvoyant. Thanks for this!
Should I mention there that he is a freelancer mechanic for Audi and BMW? I mean with two companies? But I know your explanation does make sense.
I will try to edit, Teacher and make it past tense.
Thank you so much!!!!
Hello, Rosemary :)!!! In my country, we call them "New Heroes". They sacrifice their happiness for the sake of their loved ones, they to be away from them in order to help a younger sibling to study or simply as a sole breadwinner of the family. I've heard so many stories, tragic and successful. And now, I'm creating my own story about it, starring myself. :)
Thank you, Tante!!! :)
Nice blog with a positive end, dear Risty. I liked reading, thanks for sharing.
Life, Hermano, life! You'll never know what it will bring us and that's why it's exciting because even the nearest future which is tomorrow is not for us to tell. If he is real, he is willing to do a freelance job for you. Sure!
