A four-year-old girl is lying in the arms of a doctor. She has just become motherless. The bombing(轰炸) destroyed her home and killed her mother.
Every day we see pictures like this on TVs or in newspapers. We see young Iraqi children begging for food and water from American and British soldiers when they move through towns and cities towards the capital, Baghdad(巴格达). We see these children following grown-ups, carrying bags of things almost at the same size as their small bodies as they flee(逃离) their homes in Baghdad.
“Dad, why are the Americans striking (攻击) us? Are we going to be killed?” asks the son of Abu Sinar, an Iraqi engineer. Abu finds it hard to explain this war to his eight-year-old son.
He tries to comfort him by saying, “The bombs are far away from us. The Americans are fighting the soldiers. We are going to be all right.” Even though Abu knows this isn’t always the truth, what else can he do? In Baghdad, parents give their children sleeping pills to make them sleep so that they won’t hear the sound of bombing. And all the schools are closed.
“All we can do is to listen to and hear the war.” said Abu. “We, all the people and the children, have to live in fear. We feel hopeless and helpless. We don’t know where the next bombs are going. We can do nothing but wait to be killed.”

Her mother wonders if she falls in love. It's too early for a girl for her age. After all, she is reaching the “dangerous stage”. These thoughts have caused trouble in the mother's mind.
One weekend her daughter came to tell mother that she was going to the cinema with her classmates and would return late. This was the first time her mother agreed, and she began to worry because her daughter had never been away at night before. The mother waited until nine and couldn't fall asleep.

Her heart missed a beat. When the daughter came in, the mother was watching TV, pretending nothing happened.“ Mum, I'm back. Sorry to be late.”

He gave me a lift on his way home. Mum I'm going to bed.” The daughter answered in careful words. “All right. Go to sleep early.”
The next morning when the mother went to daughter's room to do some tidying. She found her diary left on her bed. After a few minutes' hesitation (犹豫), she opened it to the right page.
