I used to read a lot of books. If I couldn't find any books (it was before the internet era, yes, I am that old), I even read leaflets, manuals, menus, and so on. This way, I actually learned many things. Usually, we don't read manuals, but if you do, you'll find there are many things you didn't know before.
One day, my older sister and I
went to Dola apa's house. We stayed there the whole night to join the next day's birthday program. I am sure they had no interest in taking me because I wasn't very close to them. But Dola apa was close to Boro apa, so they probably just took me with her.
As usual, I was alone in their home. I am used to this kind of situation. I started looking for something to read. Our uncle liked to read a lot. Wherever he went, he made a library there. Most of the books were about politics or very advanced topics for me. I was very young. I didn't expect anything for a teen in their house, but I was still looking at the books. Then I found some great books that could be good for me. I started reading. The whole day and the next day, I just read and read. I got so absorbed in the books that I didn't notice who had come home or how they were engaging. I found a wooden, comfortable chair on the balcony; I just sat there and kept enjoying the books and their stories. I spent good moments in that house.
