2024/Min-

I am the one who sees the two trees on the left and right side. There’s a house right in

front of us; however, there’s a road right in front of us too that blocks us from the

house. I don’t know whose house that is; however, mom knows whose house

that is.

I am the one who hears my mom talking to my grandma. I don’t know what they're

talking about. I know the language but they talk too fast, so it is a mystery to me.

I am the one who touches the brown metal gate as I open it for my mom so she can

walk to the store PureGold. I usually go with her. PureGold is like Walmart but

PureGold smells better.

I am the one who tastes my grandma’s cooking. On special occasions she makes

pancit, and lumpia too.

I am the one who hopes to relive these memories again, in Manila, Philippines.

Who am I?
