My Obsessive Mom Controls My Life

Story Time Animated

03-05-2023 • 13 mins

Hi! I am Sasha! I grew up with a single father and he loved me too bits- but sometimes he was a bit over the top about his love for sports- he was my biggest fan.

"Go Bolt! Go! That’s my girl! Watch out world, the next Usain Bolt is coming!"

Dad was a figure skater during his teen years. My mom left us when we were two without any reason and ever since he was my everything. We were so close that despite his family's effort to make him remarry, he insisted he was fine and didn't need any female to help raise me.

"If her real mom couldn't take care of her, what woman can?"

Though he did his best, one day it dawned on him that he had no idea how to raise a little girl. One time we were invited to a wedding and Dad bought matching male suits for us to twin in!

"Look Sasha! We are going to twin in this!"

"But dad! It makes me look like a boy!"

"Who cares!? You look good to me!"

At his insistence, I wore the suit that way to the wedding and I was the laughing stock of the party.
