I feel wonderful…
I am part of a family that accepted me without any hesitation…
It takes time to trust, yet they made me a part of their family in just a day!
A huge family…hundreds of others.
Some I know, some I don’t.
We don’t keep in touch much, but the head of the family makes it a point to send us messages regularly…
Touches my heart…
Until the 30th of the month, when they send me another message…
“Your bill is overdue. We appreciate your prompt payment to avoid disconnection. If you have already paid, please disregard this message.”
WHAT?
How did I go from being a part of the Du family, to nearly becoming an outcast?
Affected me terribly this. I am part of other families too – The Etisalat family, the DEWA family, the Ionos family…what if they all too throw me out of their families? What will I do??
A family bonds, sticks together in good times and bad. Until, of course, one stops paying the bills.
