Since having a new bicycle two weeks ago, Agsya plays a lot outside with Victor, his best friend; and Juan, Victor's brother. They usually go at 4 p.m, but recently even at 1 p.m. when the sun is burning, they keep going. This makes Agsya's skin dark. Sury, her mother, gets sad to see her son's skin. She always asks me to warn Agsya not to play when it's still hot outside, and Agsya never listens.

I think it's hard to say that to your kid when he is not your own kid because if you are too harsh, he will think you treat him bad and his mom or dad will think so. Sury always goes home at 6 pm from school. She teaches kindergarten and little kids to read, count and speak English.

Usually, at night, when Agsya wants to have dinner, he asks me to buy sate, riding bike together. Agsya is on my back. On the road, we will sing, talk and make some jokes about our favorite movies or dialogs in Big Hero 6. Agsya's English is good enough despite not being a native speaker of English.
