As the train approached Paris, he looked through the window and noticed how bright the sky was.He was no longer a boy. He was now a young man. His heart beat faster as the train entered the streets of Paris. He was far away from home. But then, “home“ was gone. Everything that used to be home was gone. The war had taken it all. In the past few weeks, he finally understood that his mother, father, and sister were never coming back. That his beloved grandmother was gone, and so was his grandfather, as well as each and every member of his extended family, dozens of them. Apart from one uncle, he had no family left.The train slowed down as it entered the station. He saw many people on the platform, excitedly waiting for their loved ones.No one was waiting for him.He picked up his valise. He was hoping to start anew here. He was hoping to forget all that his eyes had seen. To forget the darkness.He was hopeful. A new day was dawning.*Two years earlier he had run through the forest at night. Finally, in the early morning, behind the snow covered trees, he saw the house.He remembered this house well. In his childhood, before the war, he had spent many happy summer days in this small house and the cabins near it. His grandmother owned this place with all its cabins. She had entrusted the management to a woman who used to be, many years before, the family maid.He looked at the house through the trees. It was dawn. He decided he'd wait. Soon the maid's husband would set out for work. And their three teenage daughters would most likely go to school. Then he'd go and ask the maid to hide him. Just for the day. Then, at night, he'd run away. If she could only hide him for the day!He kept waiting in the woods. Then, glancing right and left, he quickly ran toward the house.He knocked on the door, looking constantly behind him.* * * *END OF EXCERPT (To read further click on the book cover, where you can read more using the Look Inside Feature!)
