| Female voice 1: And then when you stayed in Katarina hospital, that first time
|
| you wouldn’t let me in there.
|
| You wanted to be alone, not have any relatives there and definitely not a mom.
|
| Then time just passed me by.
|
| I was just home, painting the windowsills.
|
| I wasn’t allowed to have any contact with you.
|
| And then Mimmi, a neighbor, (she's from Ethiopia), came over with a friend from
|
| the same country.
|
| So they brought me Ethiopian bread and food and all, it’s custom in their
|
| culture to do that when someone is feeling bad or going through a rough time.
|
| But I couldn’t even sit down with them because I was so out of it.
|
| Later that night when they had left and I sat there with all this food,
|
| the tears just came.
|
| It was like that’s when it all hit me what was going on.
|
| Female voice 3: My new stuff: a Japanese flag, a sleeping mask from the travel
|
| department of NK, an olive tree, boxing gloves with the American flag on them,
|
| a piggy bank in plush, a Japanese dictionary, a golden purse, an erotic board
|
| game.
|
| Female voice 2: We were going to meet once, at a cafe in Gotgatan,
|
| and you came with thirty shopping bags, took out everything you bought to show
|
| the whole cafe.
|
| You had some ex sitting there and naturally you didn’t even care that his new
|
| girlfriend was with him.
|
| You were just so full of yourself, you showed no respect.
|
| Female voice 3: Mom hates all of my new stuff.
|
| Mom hates that I am having fun.
|
| She says I’m not really having fun at all. |
