They knocked hard on the door on the 5th May at 11 o’clock in the evening: “Open up, open up!”
-
My father opened and they asked where I was.
-
I was lying in the living room, but I heard everything.
-
Then two or three came in and shouted: “Get up!”
-
“What’s wrong?” I asked.
-
“Get up and you will see then what’s going to happen.”
-
Of course I got up then.
-
My family - the father, the mother, a Polish helper,
-
and my three brothers all had to get up, as well.
