Maria's P.O.V

Dear Diary
It's July 18 1942, and it's such a lovely day outside it takes my mind of this brutal war. Sarah Jane is outside playing with her dolls, for a 9 year old she's is so beautiful, her blond hair cascades down her back in loose waves which my mother braided last night, her and my mother look exactly a like both got bright blond hair and hazel eyes, the only thing I take after my mother is my cheek bones and my long blond hair, I take my fathers eyes we both have bright blue eyes that remind me of the colour of the ocean on a summers day. Today me and mother have to go into town to get some groceries. Your sincerely
Maria

I put my diary down and head down stairs, you could say our house is one of the biggest in town that's because my fathers high up in the army and my mother designs dresses for all the women in town. I have 2 siblings Sarah Jane which is the youngest aged 9 and Peter who is the oldest aged 21 and then there's me the middle child aged 18. Peter is never here because fathers made him enter the army to fight for our country, and Sarah Jane is a sweet 9 year old who makes me play with her dolls with her.

"Maria darling, get your stuff we're heading into town" my mother said while putting her book down and standing up "okay mother" I say while heading into the kitchen to get the grocery list from Mary our maid. While coming back form the kitchen I stop in front of fathers office the door is open just a tad enough for me to peek in, I see father at the other side of the desk and Mr captain Smith at the other side I can tell its him with his funny hair cut but to the right of captain Smith there is a boy I don't recognise his hair from the back is very high almost in quiff from the back he looks very handsome. "Maria" my mother shouts annoyed "coming mother" I say while rushing out the door leaving the mysterious handsome boy behind.

Once mother and I are in town, we near a little cute shop on the corner owned by Mr Williamson and his wife Darcie, lovely couple there are, both in there late sixties, Mr Williamson is the type of man that would give out free sweets to children,  I've been coming here since I was little, he basically treated my mother like a second daughter that he never had. Me and my mother both enter shop, as we both walk through the door the little bell goes off and Mr Williamson's head snaps towards us "Mrs Franke my dear, how are you?" He says to my mother while hugging her " I am very well Mr Williamson" she says "oh my Maria look how beautiful you have gotten" he says looking at me " why thank you" I say. Mother ordered some vegetables and some other bits and pieces, "Maria dear can you go to dress shop and get my some fabric" my mother says Turing to look at me " yes mother" I say walking out the shop, when I am outside I hear a big noise coming up the road and to my surprise trucks and tanks come up the little hill, with soldiers jumping out of them, I turn my gaze back on the way to the the dress shop. Once I have got all the things my mother asked me to get I exit the shop, there all a lot of soldier roaming the streets looking at the young unmarried ladies and of course since we've not had men in the town for quite some time the young ladies wave and smile at them, 'God women can be so stupid' i thought. As I was walking I get some wolf whistles and soldiers making stupid inappropriate jokes at me and some soldiers asking to carry my things, I keep my head down and just continue walking as I was about to get to the shop a young looking soldier stopped me,

I looked up at his face his dark brown hair swept to one side and his dark brown eyes that had a hint of creepy in them "where are you going pretty young lady" he said trying to hold my shoulder I shake him off and replied " leave me alone" but he didn't seem to get the hint he started to grab me but a strong deep voice from behind him stop him " I think the pretty lady told you to leave her alone" it said the boy look terrified and said " yes sir" and with that he had gone, I turned around to the voice that saved me and to my surprise it was the same handsome mysterious boy in my fathers office this morning, he had blond hair spiked perfectly in a quiff and he had the most bluest eyes I have ever seen " I hope your okay mam, just ignore Calum he is just like that with women" he said looking down for his 6'4 figure to my 5'6 one " thank you so much sir for helping me if you weren't there God knows what he would of done to me" I say looking in his eyes.

"Would you like me to help you carry these back to your house for you" he says taking the roles of fabric from my hands "yes that be so helpful of you" as we were walking back to Mr Williamson's shop he spoke up " I am Luke Hemmings by the way" I reply by saying " and I am Maria Franke" he looks at me then says " so your the famous daughter of my Mr franke" I look at him " yes that's me" I say and smile.

Once we reached the shop I tell Luke to wait out there while I get my mother but Mr Williamson said she had went back to the house, so me and Luke made our way back to the house.
