I was not allowed to go with my parents to look for the house of Uncle Dietrich's old friend. I don't know why they were so worried about me going with them. It wasn't like I was going to be in any danger. This man was someone that Uncle Dietrich knew really well. He lived with him for a long time. They worked together. And, on top of that, these people that we were supposed to be going to see were his descendants. Wouldn't they know of Uncle Dietrich? Wouldn't they welcome him with open arms? Wouldn't they be happy to see him?
Whatever, I didn't really care anyway. I mean, what would it matter to me? I was just here, away from home, away from my siblings, away from my friends. I wasn't the one that wanted to be here in the first place. I wasn't the one that begged to be here. I was brought here because I was supposedly needed.
