Jane lost her mother at a very young age, three to be exact. Although she was too young to
fully comprehend what she was feeling, the events that followed were traumatizing and stress
inducing. A few years after her mother died, her father remarried. Like all stepmothers, their
relationship was not a bed of roses. Her stepmother always treated her differently. She knew that
her stepmom could not give her the maternal love and care that only a mother could give. As a
result, she was always quiet; her moods were always sad and angry.
Her father did not realize how her deteriorating relationship affected her. An engineer and
a perfectionist, he would always scold her for not doing anything right. It was probably because
of the pressure he felt to raise his motherless daughter because he too saw the distance between
his daughter and her stepmother.
Whatever the reasons were, his scolds were too much for her. That coupled with the
deteriorated relationship she had with her stepmother, especially after the birth of her siblings
made her distant. She was distant to others. She did not seem happy like all the other children, like
children around her. All she did was try. Try to be the best version of herself. She tried to make
very few mistakes, to always do things as her father wanted. Her prolonged sadness and anger,
caused by the emptiness of lacking a mother and the pressure of perfection from her father made
her overwork and over think. She always doubles checked everything, performed certain routines
repeatedly and have certain thoughts repeatedly (“Obsessive compulsive disorder – family and
friends”, 2019). She was an emotional wreck. She always thought of the wrong she did instead of
giving herself credit for doing things right, most of the time.
She ate far less than she should. She gradually grew thin, all through puberty, distant from
other people and society. She felt like no one understood her. She always felt out of place.
Christianity was always her escape, her solace, her comfort. God was her father, her loving father,

her mother. She loved to sing, alone. Trouble came when a young man, Jean was immensely
attracted to her. Up to now, they have never dated because she is always weary of ‘doing things
right.’ Her compulsiveness has made her detests her relationship with Jean because she thinks he
is not ‘right,’ from a Christian perspective. She constantly pushes him away, not knowing that
Jean’s love is patient, kind, not selfish and not rude. Her desire for perfection, obsessive
compulsions and doing things ‘right’ makes interactions and meaningful relationships with people
like Jean very difficult.
