The Day I Kissed An Older Man

It was only through Mother Cathrina’s insistence that Corinne was allowed to stay in the convent. After that, during all the years Corinne was living in the convent, Mother Kalista would always gripe about her existence to Mother Cathrina and, from time to time, would suggest sending her to the orphanage instead.

However, Mother Cathrina never wavered in her decision. She kept Corinne close by her side, causing the other nuns to resent her and take Mother Kalista’s side. Seeing Mother Cathrina getting ostracized because of her, Corinne did what she could to make her life easier. She took up most of the chores in the convent and ate as little as possible to burden anyone.

As time passed, the other nuns slowly accepted her. No longer did they threaten to send her to the orphanage. That was until, not caring about the other nuns’ objections, Mother Cathrina borrowed money from the convent’s fund to pay for Corinne’s education. Not surprisingly, the bullying started again after that.

Corinne witnessed it all, so she vowed to herself she would not spend a single penny from the convent after getting into high school. She pushed herself to win scholarships after scholarships, as well as to start a business while she was still in school. When her business started making money, she returned all the money Mother Cathrina borrowed from the convent to silence the other nuns.

From then on, Mother Kalista and the other nuns had a 180-degree change in attitude toward her. They became friendlier to her, but it only made Corinne dislike them even more for their hypocrisy.

‘They might be dressed in a nun’s clothing, but they surely don’t behave like one. In fact, the only person who really behaves like one in the whole convent is Mother Cathrina. She only cares about doing good instead of other worldly matters,’ thought Corinne.
