Dearest Grandmother,
I am writing to you from our new house in Out-with. I dislike our new house very much. It’s emotionless and empty. I used to have friends to play with, and our faces always lit up with laughter, but now I have nobody. I usually observe a strange camp outside, yet I do not fully understand what is happening. I was so happy there until now in this new house. All the houses are very close and they all look the same. It’s strangely weird and feels off. I don’t understand why we have to move our house in Berlin. It was perfectly fine, but why does my dad think it’s for the best? Father doesn’t give me many reasons about the move because his work is important. The people here seem different compared to the ones in Berlin. I can sense that it feels controlled here and invaded. Gretel tells me not to complain, but I feel so out of place, so I just dream in my head that everything is masked emptiness and actually true happiness. It’s so colourless and dull. I miss you so much, please write back. I hope I can come visit you if I can. I hope you enjoy yourself in Berlin and hopefully enjoy your day.
Love you always, Love from Bruno.
