House

My house is not a safe place for me and family. Mom has to use a wheelchair due to an accident at work but me and brother’s room are upstairs so she can’t even check on me and my brother. This house is very damaged so whenever it rains, water leaks though the roof whenever it rains. Theres barely enough food for us in this house. I see mom and dad not eating just so me and my brother can eat. And my dad works two jobs just to get us money. My house is not in a safe neighborhood either, everyone is always fighting, and everyone is rude to my family and even at night there is lots of noise. And when it’s finally quiet mom and dad fight about financial problems. They always fight about the bill, money, and how much we spend each month. That was until dad found someone who could help us. He said he could find us a good home if we help with working for a year or two. He said we could look at the houses and pick the best one for us. The new house my parents picked does not have a second floor so mom can check on us and 2 rooms. One room has a bunk bed which me and my brother are going to be sleeping in, the other room has a king-sized bed for both mom and dad. In the new house water doesn’t leak through when it rains anymore. The neighborhood is nice and peaceful. Everyone welcomed us to the neighborhood when we moved in. It’s not loud at night or day. Theres no fighting at all in this neighborhood, everyone is friendly to each other. Even mom and dad look happier and don’t fight anymore. Dad only works one job now, so we see him more often and he has more for us. And when he gets home, he doesn’t look tired. Me and my brother are going to a new school. At first, I was nervous that our new house would be the same as our old one. But I can tell. This truly feels like a home.
