Everything was ready to go. Now we have to wait for the big day to come.
- What are you going to do once you would be there, in a safe pace?he asked me.
- Hmm... what about pizza. I think that their pizza is better than our's. I mean, it won't taste as bad as this one tastes, right?
- I hope so! And do you know what I would like to do there?
-Let me guees. You want to drink their traditional alchool. By the way, Bobi is a big fan of alchool.
- Yap! Hope it is better than our tuica( it is a kind of alcohool, made from plum's juice which is special prepared). If they don't have something similar, I would be force to come back.he said lauching.
- Oh, Bobi, you and your tuica!
He can be really funny sometimes, espacely when he is not drunk. He is a good man, in general, but when he sees the bottle with wine or tuica, o no! Three years ago, when we where at a chalet in the mountains, celebrating New Years Eve, we had had to hide the bottle with wine from him. He was barely talking and singing. And he was arguing with us about the numer of the bears that he drunked.
- I drunk five bears! he shouted.
-No, Bobi, you drunk only seven. Not let that girl alone, it is not her foult for staying near you this night. (the girl that they were talking about was me, long story, little time for fairy tales).
There are many funny stuffs that happened but now we are almost living. We were looking sadly at our homes. My poor dog. It will be destroy by my leaving, but Bobi said that it will be better for rhe dog than if it comes with me. I will miss my beutiful fluffy dog.Sometimes, I am fine with the tought that I'll be away from my home. Yes, it will be hard, but I'll be safe and I'll be with my best friend.
************
The big day has come. I'm with my bag in my back and with a little smile on my face. In just a few hours I'll be free. But in my heart it is a lot of tension. Emotion. Fear. I'm scared. What will happend? I don't have any clue. I just hope that everthing will be okey.
Bobi is staying beside me, holding my hand. We looked like we were two lovers. In reallty we were two beest friends who were escaping from a preason.
The last light of the day was falling apart. It was my last sundown in Roumania.
In the protection of the dark, we were tring to walk as quikly and silantly as posible. I was scared and I was afraid of every sound that I heard. Bobi was traing to confort me, be he didn't help to much.
I was trembaling. My hole bodg was shaking. This feeling was aplificated by the cold outside. Even if it was summer, it was a really cold night.
We were at the border. The soldiers that were guarding the border were changing. It was our time. Our only chance. We began to run as fast as we could. We reached to a tall wire fance and began to climb it. I was trying to do my best and climb it as fast as I could, but my palms began to be sweaty. Then I heard it!
- Hei voi! Veniti inapoi! ( Hey, you! Come back!) it was a soldier. Bad, really bad.
We didn't come back! He shouted after us once more. We knew that we have less then one minute to climb the fence, jump aand run as fast and far as we could. I was praying to the Lord to have mercy apon us. But in vane. A few seconds later I heard a powerful noise and then, almost instantlly I heard a moan. It was Bobi's. He was hurt.
-Just go, Ana! Run, safe your life! he screamed.
-Bobi, I can't.
-Go!
With tears in my eyes, I let him there! I was so selfish! What kind of person I was? I was too afraid to think straigth. I was in Hungary. It wasn't a really safe place. I just needed to hurry up. I needed to went in England. There is a safe place for me.
