how can I talk to you?

Amy.

She thinks that my no speaking

is because I can't be

explaining myself like baby,

but I am not like baby.

I am like old man

and she's like small girl

because I am fighting in war

and she's not even knowing what war is.

Try.

Try to talk to me about

some of your experiences...

or try to tell me what you are thinking.

I'm thinking about my future.

Very good.

Very good.

So how do you see your future?

Do me this favor, okay?

I think if you talk to me about it,

it will make you feel better.

I saw terrible things...

and I did terrible things.

So if I'm talking to you,

it will make me sad...

and it will make you, too, sad.

In this life...

I just want to be happy in this life.

If I'm telling this to you...

you will think that...

I am some sort of beast...

or devil.

I am all of these things...

but I also having mother...

father...

brother and sister once.

They loved me.
