day 4 visit with Maruge
I woke up I knew that I had a lot to do because tomorrow I was leaving. I woke up at 7:00, Maruge was not awake yet so I decided to go on a walk. I had been walking for about a hour than I realized I had no idea where I was. so I retraced my steps until I knew where I was. By the time I got back to Maruges house it was 9:00. Maruge was up he said that he was starting to worry about me. I told hi m about my walk and how I got lost. I asked him what we were going to do today he said that it was my choice. I asked him if we could go to the city. He said ok but we would have to take the bus. When we leaving Maruge said one second. When he came back he had one of his goats with him. I did not ask him why. when we got to the bus the man asked what we were paying with Maruge handed him he's goat. I was about to tell him that i didn't want to make him give up his goat he said to me that the goat was old any way. on the way to the city we had to stop because i had to go to the bathroom. when i was coming back from the bathroom i heard the bus driver say "Damn Goat peed!!"
Day 3
I got out of bed a jumped out and ran outside to see if Maurge was heading up the road. i did not see him there. i was about to try and find him but than i remembered it was Saturday. so i went back to bed. when i woke up again the sun was in the middle of the sky. i asked Maurge what time it was he said it was lunch time. so i got up and went to help him with lunch. First we milked the goats and than just had a sandwich.
After lunch he showed me around the town. i first he was just showing me places like stores. but then he suddenly stopped right in front of this old burnt down house. at first we was quiet but then he told the a story. i was a sad story. this was the place where his wife had been shot and he was taken to be in the war.
for the rest of the day it was quiet like we were trying to take it all in.when i lost my cat i thought that was hard so i could not imagine what it would be like to loose a wife and a little boy. by the time we got back it was dark. i thought about dinner but neither of us had a appite right now. so we just went to bed but if i listened carefully i could here him crying.

Visit with Maruge Day 2
When i woke up i did not see Maruge around the house. so i went outside i saw him heading up the dirt road. i ran up after him i asked him where he was going. he said that he was going to school. i asked if i could come with him. he said he would love it if came with him. Maruge said we were here i looked around all i saw was a broken down old house. When he kids inside saw Maruge they all can running out side to say hello.
We went inside and i looked around for a place to sit. i could not even find a place on the ground so i just stood in the back of the room and listened to the sound of the kids. than a different voice came in i was a adult voice. i opened my eyes and i saw the teacher. She had corn rows down her back. Before i knew it the day was over.
