Day Six..

Bibi and i can hear Mom and Dad talking in the bedroom. I thought we would yell at me first. Bibi apologises for causing so much trouble and says that we have to tell Mom and Dad that we only broke one of Mr Nasser's window.
Just then,Mom and Dad came out of their room. They did not look hopeful. Instead of yelling at me they squeeze us both tightly and say that there're only four of us left since all our relatives have died in the war. i did not understand what was going on. "We've got to leave this house tonight and we cannot ever come back." Dad tells us. The government had discovered our school! i feel like a landmine had just exploded next to my head. i already knew how they found out; it was the school transport. Someone might have seen my dad picking up and dropping off girls as they're not suppose to be seen walking in the streets alone. Dad said that someone who he trust told him the news an hour ago. "We have to pack up and leave immediately."
