3. English Translation of Story
When I was young, one day there was just my father, my brothers and I staying at home. My mother had gone to my grandmother's home. During the day, my father took my two brothers to have dinner in the home of one of my uncles and left me at home. I felt sad. When my mother got back, I told her that my father loved the boys and didn't love me. All of them laughed at this. After that, they always take me everywhere with them.
