Is she trying to manipulate you in some way to influence your brother?
Maybe,
Actually she don't like me working in KL.
Shes a very controlling type, the only reason i became a Graphic designer is because i was forced to take the course by her, maybe because its near to her house or that place is near to her friend's house, im not sure why.. if my father is still alive things would have been different, i even got a place in goverment university but she don't allow it because its far.. but she tell people that she gave me the freedom to choose..
The reason im working far and living independently is not that she have gaven me the freedom to do so, she disagreed with it she want me to get a job near, it wasn't a nice farewell, she was angry, i took a train and went away myself, i got some money from the goverment, i used that money till i got my salary.. when i was staying in KL in apartment, she kept talking about me to my brother i dont know why, i've even did called her to stay with me but she refused to but she did came after 2 months later and stayed for a few days.. but now shes starting to accept i think.
Im a free bird now but whatever it is, I still do go back, visit / stay for sometimes..
