Dear Diary.

Someone had just knocked on the door. Momma will you get the door? Yes sweetie said my mom. I smiled back. It was Ellen mom talking in a deep quiet voice. I was trying to listen but i just could not here. I could tell that my mom had a look of fighting. When momma came back in I could tell that she was trying to cover it up. She spoke and said Ellen will be staying with us for a couple of nights! I was so ecstatic! Ellen went and got her stuff then she came back. We all ate dinner than Kiristi went with mom in the dark room to tell a bedtime story. Papa had sat down and told Ellen and I that if anyone came in to night Ellen would be your pretend sister! ‘Papa said we can only hide one not three’. Peter took Ellen parents to hide because they were jewish. The soldiers were going to take all the Jewish and kill them. Ellen and I went to the bed and giggled and told stories. Papa came in and said ‘ to night is going to be a long night’.
