Like, and I just kept like getting more angry with my mom.

Cause I was just like, I don't know where your head's at, but I'm not going to break the silence to find out.

Like that's where I was at.

I'm stubborn in that way, I think.

But I did need that time.

where, like, I kind of set some boundaries with my dad during that period.

And I needed that time to, like, you know, I was a young mom.

I got married very young.

Like, I'm also just trying to figure out what my identity is.

Like, who am I?

Like, I'm growing up, raising kids, which is hard as it is.

You know, we were starting businesses when you're in a startup that is not like, you know, we were making ends meet and like just trying to make the best of our life.

And like, I can't just ride this roller coaster all the time with my parents.

Like, I need to figure out myself, too.

So, and then I also was grieving, you know, normalcy and my, you know, someone that was like a second dad to me, like that was very, that was very traumatic, that whole thing.

And just trying to like move forward and be there for my best friend who had just lost her dad.

It's just like, you know, I've got to set boundaries for like where I'm at.

So it was probably...

Maybe two months after that, my mom and dad were back together.

Yeah.
