New Housemate

Written by Warren |Posted on November 12, 2008 | Comments

We have a new member in the house. Or rather stranger. At least temporarily. And unlike others, they’d probably be enjoying their time. But I’m not used to visitors at home. Especially if many are using our resources. Ugh! I just don’t feel comfortable about this idea. Sometimes I feel I want to just go back home to manila and get back to my comfort zone.

The new member is currently pregnant. And will be living with us till she gives birth. Since she can’t afford to take care of the child, because she’s still young and she got pregnant unintentionally by her boyfriend, she decided to look for others to adopt the child. So she found us. And we agreed to adopt the child. I know how Hazel wanted one anyway. But for me I don’t want to be distracted by it. Now the expecting mother is with us. Using our resources. Of which it is not easy to work for. And then we will just give it them? ugh! Like no one is supporting us. We’re ministers and not full time business folks. This is so crushing my pride to pieces! And I don’t like what I’m feeling right now. We have 2 months to go to be with the expecting mother. I hope I’d survive till that time.
