KimoKimo, 26, came to Israel in 2009. He left Darfur when he was 16.
I was at the market hanging out with my friends And we were hearing about the surrounding village that they’re packing and leaving. I didn’t care that much just kept hanging out with my friends I came back home from the market back home felt tired from walking around the market all day and found only my mother at home cooking I felt there was something going on she doesn’t want to tell me about it I was wondering, asking my mother Where is everyone I felt confused because usually someone is around Umm.. she said everyone is out But I felt weird because it was Saturday and there was no school and my brother should be home I went to get water at the well My weird feeling almost disappeared in the three-minute walk but then I still felt strange because there were weren’t many people outside hanging out. And I remember feeling hot and that people looked sad. |
