When I stepped into a passage to get to my house, I found my little sister by chance. I could not tell that it was her from the face, but from the pattern of her clothing which she used to wear a lot.
I approached her asking, "Are you not Chiyoko?" Then the little girl jumped to me crying, "Sister!" I asked her several times, "Are you Chiyoko?" and she said, "Yes, I am Chiyoko". She asked, "Where is Mum?" but all I could say was "I do not know".
I went on asking, "Where were you all this time?" She said, "Our teacher told us to run to the river so we did. Then the river became full of people, so we had to leave. All were heading to this direction so I followed them."
Her eyes were still opened until she saw me, but from the moment she found me they got swollen and so did her lips too.
She hanged on to me saying, "I am sleepy, I am sleepy." I told her, "Don't sleep because you will die. Don't sleep!" But she said, "I am sleepy and I cannot help it."
