I want to go home. I hope everyone is okay. My tummy hurts. I miss my aunties. I know I need to stay away but it's so hard! I've stayed away for so long! I've been good! I've been careful... I've been so careful. I just want to go home. But I worry that when I return home won't feel like home anymore. I worry that home will be foreign to me, that I won't have a place where I belong. I want to talk to someone about my feelings but I have to stay hidden, it's important! I know I'm just being selfish but I wish I could get more information on what's going on. Not knowing is so heavy...
