My mom left home to gain money for our future. But no one thought that we would get alone.
Really alone! 10 years having her far away meant that we lost our grandparents of Malaria, and our father, I still wonder why, left us one night and never came back! I had to take care of my 2 little brothers as I was the older one – I worked in a village for food. Never for money, but for food.
I tried to educate them a little – I had the chance to go 3 years to school. Oh my god, 3 years just! But my only dream was to see my mom again! And one day, after 10 long years, she came. Crying, and crying and begging her not to leave again, she actually came to take us with her – she managed to create a situation in the host country for all of us! We took all our papers and some belongings from the little we had, we left memories back and the worst past ever and went to Europe, to go to school, to get cleaned and have our future.
Now, I am in the high-school and I also work in the same restaurant with my mother and her saver, who considers us his family. I work hard, my mother still works hard because our new target is to get our own shelter! Even a small one, but to be ours… I promised myself I will finish my studies, I will get a diploma and, why not, I will become a doctor – to help the others as that man helped so much my mother and my family, without asking something in exchange!
