In The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas, our main character Bruno realizes that Maria, his longtime maid, is more than a maid -- she's a real person with a real history! In the spirit of Bruno, write a story or biography about your maid or worker. Or, if you don't have a maid, write a story from Maria's perspective.

I had thought of a day without my maid. How busy would I be doing my household chores? I can’t cook a single dish or wash my own clothes. Cooking and cleaning seem to be an easy job but they aren’t as simple as they look. My maid helped me with everything like ironing clothes, preparing my lunch basket even small things like taking my clothes out from my cupboard, putting toothpaste on my tooth brush.

Her name is Aye Aye, and I call her "Aunty Aye”. Actually, you can say that she is one of our family members because she has been working at my house since I was born. Our family can trust her the same as a family member. She is not just a main but also an aunty for me.

Naing Naing aka Ma Mi Mi Naing has been here for thirteen years. She babysat me when I was 2 until my little sister was born. She is twenty seven years old and born in Taung Gyi. She grew up in this small town called ‘Yout Sout’. She was a brave girl since she was young. She grownup on forests and farming life. Her life was adventurous. She would secretly chop sugar canes from the Shan’s farm and ate it up on a tree. She had experienced bulls fighting, an ox-cart accident and skills that the city person would have no idea how to do.

At my house, there is a maid who is 48 years old. She is also poor, so we support her for her living and her grandchildren. She has two children, a boy and a girl. Her daughter has two children. Her daughter's children live with her. Her daughter goes to Malaysia for work. The money that her daughter sends can't support her living, so she has to work hard.

My maid’s name is El Lae, so I just call her LA. She has been working in my house for 5 years. She works in my house, so we stay with each other like a real family. Now she is 29 years old. Mostly, I talk Burmese to her but she is learning Korean by herself, so she can talk Korean. Last year, she married with my driver, who has been working in my house for 6 years. Before she married, she slept and worked in my house but she got her new house, so she sleep in her house and just works 7am to 6pm. I am happy that she is still working in my house and I hope that she works in my house forever.
