Changes

It’s a hard life here.  Not very easy.  For me, for the kids, for Riel.

Things are different.  People say we’ll become a closer family but I don’t see it that way.  Riel and I have been fighting a lot and having arguments.  He’d call me names already like ‘gago’ and the kids are being punished more often.

I miss my family.  Everything is not easy for us.  Sometimes you just have to agree with Riel to prevent disagreements.  I have no place to seek shelter.  My mom is so far away.  Where do I go to shield me and my kids?
