I woke up in the middle of the night, by then I discovered there were some stranger at my house, then I discovered that we were being robbed again. After some minutes they discovered me.
Get out of my house!
Please! Somebody help me
Let´s just leave

No kid of mine goes to an orphan house, not as long as I have breath in my body. Your recommendation is insulting, Sir.

Chapter 20
When I woke up I realized that I needed a bath, so I boiled some water and I wash everything of myself
If you want to take a bath, there still some boiled water outside. Grandfather I made you some soup, but I think we need to buy some things in te market
Why don´t you come to work to the orphanage as a maid?
No mattie, no one is going to leave this house. Thank you for everything
Thank you, but I want to find my mom first.
Grandfather, Bush Hill is not good!
Grandfather´s snores won´t let me sleep, so I will rest here in the floor
