CHAPTER 1

“RUN!!”

1 september Holland Berlikum 1939 - I wake up rubbing my eyes as the bright light from the sun hits my face. It is surprisingly quiet downstairs; my mum and little brother and little sister are usually running around trying to get ready for school. I yell out “Mamma!” “Sake!” “Anna!”, no reply i start to worry but tell myself NO!! They are just playing hide and seek. I sneak quietly down stairs “Hallo iemand daar?”

My mum only speaks Dutch, but in school me and my siblings can speak Dutch and English. I do go to school but not everyday, i skip friday because i have to take care of my grandmother, she lives alone because Grootvader died in world war one. So i look in the kitchen; no one. I look in the cupboard and my little sister is crying i yell “Anna! waar was je?” she said “Elizabeth!” i ask “where are Mamma and Sake? “I do not know? Mamma said she was going to buy some more flour from the market to make bread for ontbijt” “and Sake wanted to come and they still have not came back”. Now i start to freak out i tell her “alles komt goed” i come with her upstairs we both get dressed then all of a sudden there was a knock on the door i go check i see a man in camouflage i say “hello?” “who are you?” then i realise he is a german. I hope it is not the start of world war 2 in world war 1 i was really little i think i was 3 months old. He gives me a piece of paper it says a curfew which is 7:00pm and also some ground rules i shut the door and make sure he has left. I sprint up the stairs then run back down and lock the door back up i go i yell “Anna!” “We moeten gaan!” she asks “why” i really don't want to tell her it is maybe ww2 so i say “to find mamma and Sake” she says “why was there a man in camouflage? “Um…” i don’t know what to tell her “he was the ...mailman i don't know why he was in camouflage” i say “zou je alsjeblieft een tas willen hebben” i ask her she grabs a big bag but small enough that she can wear it on her back. She puts her favorite doll,some clothes and her pillow i pack the same but instead of a doll i pack food and water. She asks again “why do we have to leave” i have to tell her “well we are going to find mamma and Sake also it is because well... world war twee i think is starting”. I am praying she does not start freaking out she asks me “ARE MAMMA AND SAKE DEAD!!!AND OUR WE GOING TO DIE!!” “GEEN KALME NEER !!” I say “we will be OK” she hugs me has her bright blue eyes meet my eyes then I say “come on let's go”. I walk outside with Anna behind me I scream in aganie as i see my mamma lying on the ground with a bullet hole threw her chest i dropped to my knees Anna asks “who is that?” then she realised that it was mamma she started crying as much as i was i pull Anna closer to me. Then i hear a scream saying “RUN!!”
