It’s been ten days doesn't sleep at home. The flood that
comes (almost) every hard rain is not easy thing to live with. Buy a new house
is a great idea, but it needs a lot of money. So, keep down that thing, very deep
down inside.
I and my brother and sister live in my aunt house for a
while now. It’s near to my own house. My parent rents a small room in front of
my aunt house, they sleep there. Feel so sad separate with them.
We choose to make a
friend with the flood –we did-, but very good friendship now. Dad upgrades the
house being higher and adds one floor upside. So, if the flood still can go
inside, we move up stair.
I bring my own bed, pillow and blanket to my aunt house, trying
to make it feels like home. Yeah, it quite works at night when the light turns
off and I close my eyes.
Every 6 a.m. I go to my mom’s room, very small room with
bed, kitchen, television, things, stuffs and everything. Feel warmer with my
Mom and Dad around me, almost feel like home if they are in. But it’s not home.
No own room, no privacy, no space, (feel) no freedom. It’s
still better to live in own house even the wall’s broken, the roof’s gone, the
flood comes and whatever. It’s better as long as there all my family inside this
house that we call it our own, home.
