Hello, my name is Calixa and I am a Roman slave girl. My twin sister and I were born into slavery but we have always been treated well by our masters. We come from a long line of slaves who served the same family for generations.
As a child, I used to spend most of my time playing in the fields with other children. We would run around all day, chasing each other and laughing until our sides hurt. Those were some of the happiest times of my life.
But as we grew older, our masters began to sell us off to different owners. My sister and I were separated from each other and forced to work in different households. It was a difficult time for both of us, but we managed to find comfort in our work.
Eventually, we were bought by a wealthy family who lived near the city of Pompeii. They treated us well and allowed us to continue working in the fields. We spent many happy years together until the tragic day that Mount Vesuvius erupted and destroyed everything around us.
I am grateful that I was able to escape with my life, but I will always miss my sister and the happy times we shared growing up as slaves in ancient Rome.
