It was June holidays and I went to visit my grandmother in Cape Town. My grandmother took me to her school where she had a party with her class and I met a new friend. Later my grandmother took me to Wynberg. The place is quiet. You just hear the sounds of birds and of dogs barking. I sat alone in a quiet place. You may think I was bored, but I was enjoying sitting there not doing anything. Another day I went to the beach – it was the first time for me to see the ocean. I was scared because people were saying that the waves would take you away. Another day I was alone so I put make-up on and took selfies. Something said I should go to the window. I saw my father and I ran to him.
