DIARY
Friday 13th 2012
Hi, diary!
My mother bought you yesterday. My name is Sujata Bhatt and I am 10 years old. I live in a small country called India that is far away from the other countries.
One day I was sleeping and my mother started to shout, telling me, “Sujata, Sujata, put something on and come here now”. I was scared because my mother never shouted so loudly. So I was afraid. I went downstairs and she told me, “The English want to conquer our country”. Hooooo, my father was working. “Mother, imagine if the English people kill father”, I said.
At that moment somebody knocked at the door. They were the English people. “Sujata, go to your bedroom and stay quiet, please. Well, if I don’t see you anymore, I want to tell you something: I love you”, mother told me. The soldiers took my mother. I was alone. I didn’t have mother and father so I didn’t want my life. I went out. I was walking, looking at all the Indian people dead in the street. Somebody told me, “Sujata”. It was an English soldier. I started to run because I was scared and somebody started running behind me. A man started to hit the person that was running behind me. That man was my father. We went to my house so the English people didn’t see us. We started to drink something and somebody knocked at the door. I opened and it was my mother. I was very happy.
I am going to tell you something: I love my family.
Well diary, I want to stay with my family. Then another day I will write to you another thing.
See you,
Sujata
