I once knew that one had to work hard to acchieve a goal. But in my life I never worked so hard to acchieve to reach my goal. Each morning I had to wake up at 3 AM, go to work, come back at 12 PM. My life was a long tireing job.
Who am I? My name is calixto gerra. I am 21 years old. I see that you're confused of how I look? Look at me...I stand at 5'11, my hair is short and black. I have brown eyes. My noise has a bump since i broke it a while ago. My skin is light brown. Anyways, like I was saying. I have been working in the fields for such a long time now.
My body hurts every move I make. I feel upon my chest a heavy burden for more then 12 hours a day. If you have not notice. I work in a cherry farm, Picking them. The pay is not the best. But, its the only job that i can get...Without getting deported back to my country. Why did i come? for the money. Since picking cherrys i do get a lot more money then my last job in my country. How much i get paid in my last job? Lets just say I got paid for one day of work one dollar and twenty five cents, and now I get paid four dollars per bucket of cherrys. Its a way better pay. But a hard live, I always had a hard life thought.
Why did i come illegally? I came illegally becuase they would not accept me mostly becuase I did not have enough money to pay for the papers, and I could not wait many years. If I waited for those years my children will surly starve. That is why i fight this battle of sufferment, for them.
(to be continued)
