"So you saw your family being killed?" I asked. And she nodded
"How long was this"
'2years ago'
"So you are probably around 3 at the time'' but she shook her head. And she signed '4'
"But you're 5" and she shakes her head again.
'what day is today?' she signed and we told her
'If I speak, will you take off your mask?' She signed and I looked at Lisa to see her shrug.

" Mr Andrew and his parents don't really speak to me. Mr Andrew don't really like me' she signed

"So you feel comfortable there?"
"It's better than the street." She shrugged and signed
"It should feel like home" tessa said
"This feels like home" she sighed while signing with her head down
"It does" lisa and I said
