I was at the end of the road. Struggling to find help lost in my physical self and my mental self. Looking up at the dead end to discover the sign that ended and started it all .Staring at it tempted me more in the depressed state I was in . I thought to myself what else do I have to live for .There was no one by my side no one that cared for me."Why am I here!"i screamed, but of course no one heard me.
I got out of the car slammed the door and ran straight to never look back. I was determined to keep my head up and not for a second re-think my decision. I ran and ran until eventually my legs gave way I fell to the ground and started bawling my eyes out . I was astonished looking around confused on where to go. I was completely lost. I had no means of communication I was totally alone.
I got up and started wondering off into the deep forested area to somehow find my way out. After a while it seemed as if i was walking in circles. The skies were becoming gloomy and my body dying of exhaustion. To my delite there was what appeared as a wooden shed that i could rest my head on for the night. I layed down and into a deep sleep admiring the stars.
"Holaaa!Holaaa
Despiertaa!"exclaimed by an unknown voice. When i thought things couldnt get more confusing it did. Waking up with shock written all over my face as I witnessed a whole family of at least 5 people staring me directly in my eyes."I sorry I sorry I didnt mean to intrude on your space, I'll leave just please doh hurt meh,". "?Que¿no ingles,"said the man. I thought to myself I should have payed attention to my spanish teacher.
They directed me to follow them, I was sceptical at first but where else did I have to go. My jaw dropped to the sight of approximately 15 more venezuelians hiding out in the forest. They conversed for a few minutes and finally someone spoke english. There was an old lady with long grey hair and her body wrapped
in a blue cloth. She started questioning me "Why are you here?","Who sent you?"she asked.
I immediately answered "I get lost, no one sent me , i promise ,i here by myself,". She pulled me aside , she explained that they we're hiding from the govermment who wanted to send them back venezuela after they escaped from the crisis that they faced. They came Trinidad to get a better life but didnt get excepted to stay and had to flee the island within a month or they can suffer serious consequences so they decided to hide out. There i was feeling foolish for being furious for silly things. While there are people here with serious problems.
This is what started it all. It brought out my appreciative self .The side of me that I never experienced before. I liked this side. I decided to try to help them out as much as possible. They assisted in guiding me back to my car and i was able to go back every week to check up on them and ensure that they we're comfortable considering their circumstances.
