Chapter 31 - A Sad Nightmare...

As I saw, the sun shines brighter today.

In this window of our small house,

It's sad, but I realized the importance of this window this time.

As this window lets me have a glimpse of the outside,

It makes me miss the past and want it back, but it also makes me feel awful and afraid for the people outside.

It makes my tiny heart ache thinking that many of us are victims of this epidemic...

Should I be thankful for getting to listen to every song my child sings?

Should I be thankful that this time I got to appreciate every drawing she drew for me?

But looking at her, I had a big part of my heart full of worries.

Worries fill me and make me stuck, and the painting that I've been working on for a month is unfinished.

Now I said to you, my child, and to you too, who are victims of this epidemic:

Let's hold on for another day.

I know how tiring it is to hold on for days, and much more to life, but no matter what

Let's keep holding on to our lives, to our past, and to the future. We can make it as long as we're alive.

Now let's do our best to hold on and hope for a happy tomorrow.

Now I said to Jesus, "I'm sorry; I know it's again."

But Jesus, I pleaded with you to save us just this once again.

To let these aches from our tiny hearts wake us up from this sad nightmare

to let us be alive tomorrow to have a chance to be happy again in time.

Let's make this sad nightmare go away.

Let us wake up from this sad nightmare as we used to before.

Before, our bodies felt numb because of these pains.

Before, our hearts trembled in fear because of these worries.

Please tell us that this is just a sad nightmare.

And soon we will all wake up from this nightmare…
