Paying back the kindness I received.

It's been a few days since I woke up, I can say I've gotten into a routine. I wake up going to the dining room where I eat once a day that failed attempt at vegetable soup with dry bread and I go back to my dark room. The candle had long since melted, but I did not have the courage to ask for another, seeing how poor the orphanage was. It's been a week since I woke up what I ate that food,  I do not know if I can classify it as food although strangely children eat it with appetite, eat it as if it were the most delicious food in the world. 

.Today I went out for the first time since I got to live there. Going outside and looking back at the building, I was horrified by what I saw. The walls were almost completely destroyed by rain and snow. 

The roof is almost non-existent. It's almost totally rotten. No wonder it rain inside the orphanage  almost like outside. The fence is rotten and broken. The door is very fragile I am afraid to touch. 

it In front of the orphanage is a garden. I guess that's where the vegetables come from. Seeing all this, I decided to do something about it. With a stick writing on the ground the approximate size of the orphanage I managed to calculate the number of planks and nails needed to repair the roof after which I found out the exact numbers for the door.

The orphanage was located near a huge river and there with many trees around it.  I could say that the orphanage was in the middle of a small forest. A perfect quiet place for raising abandoned children.

 Meanwhile Miria came out and walked over to me with a basket full of dirty clothes and bedding, heading for the river to wash them. Passing by me and looking at what I do, very surprised and confused she points to the things I wrote on the  ground and asks me something of course that I did not understand anything. 

Miria :ce faci aici și mai important ști sa calculezi? 

(what are you doing and more importantly do you know how to calculate?) 

Eizern: I make a list of necessary materials. I want to see how much material I need to repair the roof, fence and door.

 Of course Miria didn't understand anything I said so she started walking down the river with the basket. 

After getting the exact number of planks and nails I started walking along the fence until I got behind the orphanage where I found a staircase large enough to see the condition of the roof more closely. Fortunately, the main structure of the roof was intact. Now there was the problem of obtaining the materials. I told myself that tomorrow I would solve the money. By the time the sun began to set, Miria had returned from the river with her basket full of washed clothes and bedding. I helped her put everything she washed on some big stones so that the night breeze would dry them.
