I never talked, well I really started talking around 7, but my parents thought I was stupid because I didn't know the language. I did, I just rather keep things to myself I guess. I'd usually tug on mama's dress for something to eat, or cry if I were upset. I was sensitive and got on my parents nerves with all the crying. My mom had 2 kids, me and my brother. She was drunk one night and said how much she adore my brother as a baby, him being calm, and making them laugh all the time because he liked to sing karaoke, and then exactly in her words she described me, "Then Alyssa came into the world and it was hell." Haha, she was drunk, can't blame her. My dad thought it was funny when I cried so he told me several times after dropping my mom off at the store that she was never coming back. And hugged and kissed on my brother and told him he loved him more and laughed and laughed at me when I started screaming. That's my dad for ya. :s
