Warnings for This Chapter: none
Well, I've been obsessing over AmeBel for awhile now...and this idea came to me today when we watched something in journalism about the process when someone is killed in war. (Telling their relatives and all that) Originally, this was going to be from Natalia's point of view, but I decided to write it from the point of view of their children instead. As for the names, Aaron is a favorite name of the America I am married to on my Belarus Facebook roleplay account. I've gotten hooked on the name myself so yeah. XD And Lidiya is a name I happen to like. I kind of want to name my first born daughter Lidiya, if I have children. I think Lidiya Jones sounds really pretty, too.
Keep in mind that these are supposed to be six-year-olds talking, so it will be a little bit of an awkward child. Although, they are very intelligent children for their age.
Appearance wise, Aaron has short, platinum blonde hair (think kindda Male!Belarus here...) and baby blue eyes that match his father's perfectly.
Lidiya is a splitting image of her mother, except her hair color is closer to her father's. Her hair is currently a tad short, not too much longer her aunt Katyusha's, though it is quickly growing to be the same beautiful length as her mother's.
Both children have their father's eyesight, and wear glasses.
Today something weird happened. Things were normal at first. Mommy was watching TV, Lidiya was upstairs playing video games, and I was painting in the kitchen. I like to paint a lot, especially when Mommy or Daddy puts it up on the fridge. But anyways, there was a knock at the door, and mommy answered it. There were two men in fancy looking uniforms standing outside. They scared me a bit, so I stayed in the kitchen and continued to paint. I think they scared Mommy too, though. Mommy started crying after she talked with them for a bit. She was crying a lot, like Auntie Katyusha sometimes does. The people are telling her that they are sorry now, why are they sorry? Mommy just told them good-bye and shut the door. I'm trying to ask her what happened, but she won't answer. She told me to go upstairs and play with Lidiya.
Me and Lidiya aren't playing. We are trying to hear what Mommy is saying. She's on the phone with Uncle Ivan now, and I don't think he knows what she's saying. She just keeps repeating the same thing over and over again. I realize what she is saying at the same time Lidiya does. We do that sometimes. Daddy says it's because we are twins. But what Mommy says scares me. I think it scares Lidiya too, but she doesn't look like it does. Mommy keeps on saying someone is dead, and they killed him. But I don't know who is dead or who killed them.
Mommy got off the phone and called me and Lidiya downstairs. She told us Daddy won't be coming home anymore.
I'm scared.
Short, I know. But again, it's the diary of a six-year-old boy, what do you expect? XD
Next chapter is Lidiya, then Aaron, and so on and so forth.
I really hope you enjoyed the first chapter, please review with your thoughts~!
