When you move to another country, you learn how to live there, but some things still stay out of reach.People around you carry memories you were never part of. The news they grew up with. The shows everyone watched as kids. Political moments they still remember. Small things that shaped how they see the world. You can understand the words, but not always the feeling behind them. Stories you are still trying to catch up with. The figure moves through them, trying to belong while carrying a completely different past.
