New Naratif's Flash Fiction

"Faraway Dream" by Agatha Celia


Listen Later

An old, retired domestic worker and her husband watches the graduation ceremony of their daughter with pride. In this parallel reality, domestic workers have the same rights, opportunities, and welfare as the rest of us.

Editor’s Note
The idea of foreign domestic workers having the same rights, opportunities, and welfare as the rest of us is something that should have been a given in any decent society. Agatha’s piece, elegant in its simplicity, makes us wonder why this dream still seems so far away.
