a palestinian girl real story

Article Summary by: hammouda    

Original Author: alaa hammouda
Huda Gallia a 10 years old girl living in Palestine and was born in Palestine. She grew up with a very simple family with
her father working as a farmer to feed them and to look for their needs . the situation she lived in was very hard because she lived under occupation and under poverty too . she sleeps and gets up in the noise of shooting and bombing. the situation she lived in didn’t allow her father to give her everything she needs and the things she dreams of like anybody in the world like going to the beach for example. When it was the end of the year and the time of the exams her father promised her to take her to the beach and make her swim their if she gets good marks all he wanted was to cheer her and to make her study well under the harsh conditions.
When Huda got her report card and her marks they were good enough to make her father happy. So her father was still under his promise and he took her and the family to the beach . she was so happy and all the night she was preparing for the next days trip. When the morning came she couldn’t wait to see the beach because she doesn't go their usually because of their poverty conditions. When Huda and her family went to the beach Huda was swimming and her parents were boiling corn and looking at her two rockets came over her parents table. Huda went out of the look for her family and to see what happened she found her mother and two of her sisters and an 8 month brother dead . they were all cut in to small pieces. She dint cry because it was a big shock for her. She went to look for her dad to tell him what happened and she found he laying on the beach ground dead with the corn plate beside him. All what she could do was putting sand on her self and eating her cloth and shouting and crying and saying look at me for the world and take pictures . One of her quotes was " take pictures and see what's happening, take pictures".
After what Huda saw and the great shock she lives on now she have no body left from her family except one brother and the other 7 were dead. now Huda is living lonely with the picture of her dead family in her mind never leaving her. And with the sound of bombings and shootings all the day night with her.
