The bliss
Dear diary,
I don't understand whats happening all of a sudden daddy's gone to war, we spend most of our time in the horribly cramped bomb shelter with my older brothers, and sister William, Harry and Suzan, and yet here I am standing on a busy platform with my family except from daddy oh, I miss him so much. I still don't understand, mummy spoke to William , Harry and Suzan and they said goodbye to their friends and Suzan was most upset when she said goodbye to Peter, her boyfriend, he's going away too, mummy told me that im going on holiday with Suzan, Harry and William just us and I have to be strong for daddy and then she gave me this locket with is what I am wearing right now, its beautiful, it has both mummy and daddy in it they look so happy oh, I wish that pitcture could go on for ever, I wish daddy was home and I don't have to go on holiday without mummy. Well im about to board the train and im scared I grab hold of Will's hand, I stop to wave to mummy oh, I can't see her I have hold of fluffy my teddy bear I hug him tighter and Will made me get on the train making sure everyone got on first and then suddenly I can see mummy I wave at her as I look around I see so many sad faces of mummies and grand mummies oh, it was so sad, I look round and Harry's holding me up against the open window I look down and it was along way down oh if I was to fall the I'll defiantly hurt my self, I can feel Harry's arms around me tighten as soon as I feel the train launch forwards I look to see if I can find mummy and there she is crying, I wish I could cry but I can't I have to be strong for daddy, yes that's it if I smile then I know daddy is smiling to, mummy say's that me and daddy have a special thing we can each feel what the other is feeling, she says it is sorter like we are twins. I see mummy's face slowly fade away and my arm hurts so much from waving, William, Suzan and Harry are shouting thing's out the window, I finally have the courage to shout a small 'I love you mummy'.
2 hours later -
Hi again, I have been on this train for two house I think, Suzan's really upset now she said that she might see if Peter is on this train and went to look for him, she still not back , so Harry's gone looking for her, Williams laid on the other seat reading a book, I feel sleepy so I got Harry's jacket as a pillow and William's jacket as a blanket, oh I miss mummy terribly and she could be hurt, it is quite on the train there's no children running around like a normal train when, mummy and daddy took us to the country seaside, they was children run up and down like lunatics, happy and now the war is here there no shouting, screaming or fighting, now its just quite and still, oh thank goodness Suzan and Harry are back, they look angry with each other oh, I wander what's is the matter maybe I should find out.
