My name is Erik. On the day of my school graduation, my father said he needed to speak with me. He said, "Do you plan to live in this house forever?" I said I didn't know where else to go. "I've been supporting you for years. You'll have to work if you want to stay here. Either you bring money home or you pack your bags." I had graduated from school with top marks. I wanted to go to university so I could get a good job later.
