Petros' snake
Not many things have changed in my life, but the one I remember most intensely was when I moved. I didn’t want to leave the village, because I would leave my friends behind. But that was what I had to do. I didn’t want it at all. I had to make new friends and go to a new school. It was something I would never want to do. My mind was very confused ... this transition changed my entire life.

Night was falling, and I decided to toast a sandwich and go to my room. It was getting late in the evening and my parents didn’t even say a word. The door to their room was closed. I went back to my room and I couldn’t sleep, as whenever I tried to sleep, nightmares would wake me up.
