We bring Peri back into the house. Q sits down to watch some TV, while I serve Peri some of the fruit that’s been freshly grilled by Q Sr. She seems to like playing with it more than eating it. I sit down with Q in front of the TV,…

I wake up from my nap and leave the bedroom. The first thing I see is Alice reentering the house with Peri – both of them wet and sandy. Alice completely disregarded my desire to experience Peri’s first time on the beach for myself. It takes a whole lot of…
Q waits until I’ve left the room before he strips down and climbs into bed. I head towards the dining area where Alice is feeding Peri. Alice: I hope you don’t mind me feeding her. She seemed like she was ready to eat. Alida: It’s okay…but you gave her peas.…
It’s been a few hours since Alida, her baby, and boyfriend left for Sulani. Lea will be forever grateful to them for allowing her this opportunity to house sit, which gives her a roof over her head long enough for her to finally secure a job and become self-sufficient. She…

It’s not even the middle of the night, but I still don’t know if I’ll ever get used to interrupted sleep. Q seems to be a natural though. He’s the first up. He comforts Peri and calms her. I take over, allowing him to get back in bed while I…
