The little clueless girl

I woke up to a weird noise. It kinda sounds like a bell. Anyways, whatever it was it kept on getting louder and louder every minute. It went on for hours.

I could hear people from outside screaming and the ground was shaking. You know that feeling when there's some really big speakers and loud music so the ground is shaking a little bit? Thats what I felt.

I'm pretty sure it was a party, I even heard some fireworks! Every time they launched one, someone shouted : "AHHHHH". The citizens of Amsterdam must really love fireworks. I looked discretely out the window to see whats going on. That party looks amazing! There was red jello everywhere. I think they had a jello fight! I wish I could join them but my dad told me yesterday that I can't do anything outside the house. I still don't understand why

He said that all the Jewish people had to do that. But I saw my friend Ricky covered in red jello so my dad obviously lied. Its not fair that he can have fun but not me.

I'm too scared to confront my father thought. He would probably send me to my room for 10 years. I don't wanna stay home until I'm 18. I want to go out with my friends and have fun. But he takes the fun out of everything. He makes us do all his chores because he said that he has more important things to do. I do everyones laundry and the dishes. One of my big sisters, Tanya, is on cleaning duty and my other one Chloé cooks for us. Unfortunately for me, they're twins. Tanya has dark brown eyes and laughs a lot. We don't fight a lot and is the older twin. Chloé has long blonde hair and is very pretty. She doesn't think she is but everyone says she's beautiful. They boss me around ALL the time. Its so annoying! Our mother left us when I was 3, so they act like they're the one in charge now.

Sometimes I wish I could be a princesses with a magic wand that can turn people into cupcakes. I would make them cupcakes and eat them. Only if they had sprinkles thought. Well, if they didn't I would just go get some because if I eat them because it means that they would shut up for once. I would have my old kingdom of cupcakes! Yeah thats not gonna happen. But, maybe they could turn into brownies. Everyone at school calls me brownie because of my skin color. I'm the only one like that but its ok because they all look like vanilla cake and I would chose brownies over that anytime. The only person I've ever told that too is Paris, my only friend at school. She comes from France but moved to Amsterdam a few years ago. She has long brown hair and big brown eyes. I really appreciate that nice vanilla cake.

While I was dreaming of my cupcake kingdom, a little ball came through my window and crashed into the wall. I think its a cherry because it was really red. It was also really hot so maybe they forgot it on the counter instead of in the fridge. This time it wasn't a potato that flew around my room, its a cherry! I can't wait to tell Tanya&Chloé that I discovered flying cherries! So I got out of my room quietly not to wake up my dad, just to find out that the floor was covered of red jello here too! I went on the ground and to touch it. Actually... I think this is cherry juice not red jello! I walked to the kitchen to get a spoon to drink it. As I arrived at the end of the hallway I heard a sort of double click. It sounds like the guns dad practices with outside. Suddenly, I wasn't thirsty anymore so I went to Chloé's room. I went in her bed and looked at her. She had cherry juice on her forehead and her face was a little white. She probably put her eye shadow in the wrong space, she's never been good at putting on makeup. As I started to get a bit scared of her ugly makeup I decided to sleep under the blankets. Suddenly, I heard that click again and another cherry flew around the room. They shot a few until one of them hit my foot. I know understand everything...
