My House
I live in a double-story house at Kani Hema, B.K. Pora. It was constructed by my father five years ago. It is opened on all sides. There is a small garden in front of it where flowers of varied hues grow. Behind the house, we grow vegetables on a patch of land. It meets our needs so far as vegetables are concerned. There is a verandah on the second floor. We often sit there during the day, take tea, and talk about our own affairs.
There are twelve rooms in my house, two of which are very spacious. On the ground floor, there is one big room, which we call the drawing room. Here, we receive our guests. In the centre, there is another big room called the hall. It serves the purpose of our dining room as well. Every one of us has a separate room, which we have decorated according to our taste with pictures, photographs, and curios.
There are five water taps in our house. Both the floors are well planned. bath rooms. Besides, there are two lavatories.
All the rooms are fitted with electric lights and fans. There is also a room heater, which we use in the winter.
In front of our gate, there runs a pucca road wide enough to allow tongas. cars, buses, and taxis to ply through freely.
It is a blessing to have one's own house. Here, a person has all the conveniences.and advantages that one cannot have in another man's house.
