The second We go through the front door the sirens go off again. We go to the bonker again. This time I turn the TV on.
"There are siren sounds all over the country, I'm getting massages from civilians that live around the border saying there are people outside their homes with guns shouting and shooting everywhere" . What the actual fuck are they talking about. How is it still going where is the army
" yes Raskin, right now there are approximately close to 40 terrorist that got past the border, I can't help but think where the army is?" You and me both sister-wait what? 40 terrorists?
"I just got a massage from a young man saying 'we are being shot at everywhere, they are blocking the roads and hiding places there are so many terrorist in here'.. I-I don't know what to say-" and again with the sirens this time not here but from the TV and a screen shows up saying that they went for a safe space and be back shortly.
I space out looking at the orange box noting all the places being under rockets alarm it's so long it reached the end of the screen and the names just keep changing.
"I'm scared Noam they've never been able to keep it going for so long. What if something will happen to us." Leah's voice snapped me back. "Nothing bad will happen to you as long as I'm here. I promise I got you lils..I promise"
My phone ringed. "It's mom" 'sweetie-Omg are you and your sister okay? Where are you? Are you safe? Oh please tell me you're safe' she hurriedly said through the phone. 'Yeah mom we're safe. We're in the bunker right now' 'good. Okay baby listen to me right now you're going to lock all doors windows anything that can be used as getting inside of our house! Okay? Also in my closet there's a gun hidden behind the second shelf take it the bullets are in my sock drawer'
