I got this tattoo when I was in high school. It’s the birthdates of my mom, my sister, and me.

From childhood to growing up, we lived under the shadow of my father’s violence. During my high school years, our family situation became unbearable, and we finally left him.

At that time, I felt that from then on, it would just be the three of us — my mom, my sister, and me — starting a new life together, relying on each other.

So I tattooed our three birthdates on my arm to mark that moment.
