Visiting where I used to live. My parents’ house hasn’t changed. Though the people in it have. They have a new neighbor now. A woman from my mother’s job is living in the third floor. My mother is now rarely there. She’s spending all her time at church or in her brother’s house. My father is saving up to move into an apartment. My sister is starving and without cable or internet to entertain herself. If I hadn’t left would things have been different? Would anything have changed at all or so quickly?
