I Must Survive
Part 2
My family arrived in this village last fall. The amount of belongings we brought with us continued to get smaller each time we moved to a new town. Now we only needed a small delivery van to move. We were in no position to be picky about where we lived.
There were only two conditions.
One: a hospital for dad.
Two: an employer who was willing to hire someone without a high school diploma.
The village had both.
The bus that ran twice a day stopped in front of the country-run hospital, and a series of small eateries lined the stream behind the town. These eateries sold stew and fries made with small fish caught fresh from the stream, and the summer months were their high season.
Crowds seeking a waterside excursion poured in from nearby cities, and the demand for deliveries to those staying at the village with the rest area on the mountainous ridge was high.
During winter, when the stream froze solid, the eateries used preserved fish caught in the summer. There weren't as many tourists in winters as there were in summer, but calls for delivery remained steady.
I was one of the town's delivery boys.
