The Day Everything Changed.

The day everything changed I was woken up with the screaming of soldiers yelling "we are Khmer rouge" , "we are red Cambodia". But I go to my friends house and they have to leave. the next day the Khmer rouge says that everyone has to leave because the Americans are coming to bomb. so we prepare to leave for 3 days just like they said.

Moving to America

As it turned out Peter Pknd did adopt us and moved us with him to America Where we went to school with his real kids. I wasn’t good at school like my adopted brothers. And the kids in America were very mean. They called us monkeys. When we were living in Peter Pids home I started to suffer from post traumatic stress disorder and then I became mean. I once even ran away. But Peter pond helped me a lot. He taught me how to speak English and speak up about the things that happened in Cambodia and the things that I went through with the Khmer Rouge. I even went back to see my sisters and my aunt. I also met with many others that helped me on my journey.
