My story

Jag heter Ingrid. Nummer sju är mitt hus.I am Ingrid. Number seven is my house.

Jag har bott här i femtio år.I have lived here for fifty years.

Jag har lärt halva staden att läsa.I taught half the town to read.

Jag vet vem som kommer hem sent och vem som glömmer att stänga dörren.I know who comes home late and who forgets to close the door.

Jag vet också vem som tar sista brödet på kaféet.I also know who takes the last loaf at the café.

Folk säger att jag vet allt. Det stämmer inte.People say I know everything. That is not true.

Jag vet bara allt om det här huset.I just know everything about this house.

Elsa kommer till mig efter skolan varje dag.Elsa comes to me after school every day.

Katten är inte min. Han tror bara att huset är hans.The cat is not mine. He just thinks the house is his.
