Ok, but how to explain the presence of this child
-
so I created the story because Irena was a white-pink blonde,
-
the child had also fair hair and blue eyes so we could say it was Irena`s daughter,
-
but the child could not say even a word in Polish,
-
she could speak only Russian
-
because the grandma`s husband
-
was not the real grandfather of this child.
-
Mrs. Melezyniuk became a widow and then for the second time got married with a Jew,
-
they both escaped from the Soviet Union
-
and they spoke Russian, especially at home in Vilnius.
-
The next thing was the child talked about her grandma and grandpa
-
so again we created a story that Irena was my cousin and escaped from Warsaw.
-
She was not my cousin, but she escaped from Warsaw.
-
It was true she worked in a hospital, was a nurse and had night shifts.
-
And that she lived in Vilnius with white Russians -
-
we only changed aunts into grandma and grandpa,
-
who spoke Russian at home, the child could see her mother very seldom
-
and that is the reason why Irena wants to have this child in a different place.
-
And the child came, little, angry, crying, almost three year old as it was November, and she was born in December,
-
her name was Miriam but she was called Maryśka.
