I don’t know what to think. I don’t know what to feel. Should I be happy because I’m finally free? Or should I be sad that I won’t have a life to get back to? The life I left when I had a family, a roof above my head, food in my hands, and education. I left it all just to be free. How I didn’t know what free meant before. That was selfish of me. Now all I get back to are the memories of my murdered family, beatings and lessons of that man, the filthy train station and my scars and bruises. Should I start a new life?
I think I should. I’ll teach teenage girls on how to defend themselves and I’ll probably even join church! Yeah, that’s it. I didn’t know what I had, till it was lost. Now I’ll make sure that you know what you’re going to lose.
