18 October 1940

Dear Diary,

Nazis came to our house today. My mom and dad were terrified when they heard them banging on the door. She told me and my brothers to hide some bread and water to the secret box we have inside the bedroom wall. The moment we hid the food, my dad opened the door. I heard a lot of yelling. I was too scared to look at the door. Calev, Benyamin and I hid in the closet until the yelling stopped. Now, Calev takes care of us. I miss mom and dad but Calev says that they are visiting grandma and grandpa right now and that they will be back in a few weeks.
