Emily's point of view
The police have barricaded all the exits of the city and they won't let anyone leave.The army members have assigned jobs to families the rich got to choose or of the four jobs food supply pass out, teacher supply distributor , or medical. But the poorer families had to either work farming or cleaning.
"Emily go out something warm on it's cold out and we have farm work to do today"my dad says to me
"Ok Papi"I say back to him as I go to my room and put my grey sweater, my white tank top, my jeans, and my Ugg boots.I walk back down stairs and walk over to my Papi "I'm ready Papi"
"Ok Em let's head out to the farm" My father says to me as we walk out the door.
"Papi why won't the guards let anyone leave?"I ask him
"I don't know Em but I'm going to find out"
I start picking the fruits and vegetables and put them in the basket. Suddenly I hear loud noises that sound like gun shots and bombs me and my dad run for cover and make it to the barn with the animals
"Papi I'm scared."I say quietly
"I know Em but it's going to be ok"my father says to calm me down
"Promise?"I ask
"Yes Em I promise" he says as he hugs me
I burry my face in his shoulder to hide the fear that is in my eyes.There are so many gun shots and bombs going off.Author note
