It was a normal day just like any other. We were an average family in an average neighborhood with an average looking house which had a tool shed in the front left corner of the house ... my dad was an average man whose wife worked in South Africa . We would see our mom every after three months and we were okay with that
Something about today didn't feel okay it was to quite. But I guess every day is just quite

The day started of with us waking up and brushing our teeth... I had two younger sisters . We then went to the kitchen to find dad cooking breakfast as he usually does .. we enjoyed our meal my dads name is Paul

Paul's point of view
I went outside to great the neighbours as I usually do when suddenly two black cars driving at high speed could be seen from a distance ... they were people out each window I couldn't make out what they were doing from where I was standing .., as they got closer i realised that those men were masked and shooting houses ..'ohh no .... kids get under the table!!!!!! Now!!!!!' I ran and lay flat on the ground behind the tool shed .. the shooting had just began .

Paul
Kids are you okay

Peter
Dad were over here under the table

Paul
Ohh my gosh the ( the kitchen unit had fallen on the table the kids were hiding under) don't worry kids I know what to do

Peters point of view
I was putting the dishes in the sink when I heard my dad shout for us to get under the table. I was confused but I knew what I had to do . 'Jay and alice let's get under the table now '  they didn't want to argue so they did as i said ' cover your ears' we heard loud sounds and all of a sudden something heavy fell on us we fainted... after some time I could here my dads voice I had enough energy to tell him where we were ' over here under the table ' next thing I remember we were awake and police were all over the neighborhood.. but this was only the beginning

Paul's point of view
I lifted all the things and managed to get me kids from under the fallen unit police had arrived and were taking reports of what we saw . They assured as that this will never happen again .. I was happy that my kids would now be safe .
