The Beginning of the End

- Punnapa (Pun) Suvimolpan -

Outside of the bedroom, the warm moonlight was filtering in
through the gaps in the curtains. Sitting by the window and tilting
my head skyward, I could see thousands of bright stars dotted on
the black canvas of night. From here, I could see the beautiful
scenery of the village and evergreen pine forest below. The only
light sources that appeared out there were the silver glow of the full
moon and a group of brilliant lights from far away – the lights of
celebration and joy.
Today was the 24 of December or the Christmas Eve for
th
most people. For me, Tonight would be my last night of being 14
and the same day that that I was sent to my ‘new house’– maybe it
was the only thing that I could remember. And I have been living
here for three years from that day.
