The story of the Sambievs: Zulikhan and Mareta
In 2004 April 4, we were playing in the street beside our mom who was collecting water. There were many neighbours standing in the queue for water. Suddenly an explosion occurred close to us. Our mom told that someone from our apartment house had thrown a grenade at us. She found me laying unconscious on the ground, took me in her arms and run to the hospital. She did not notice that Mareta was also badly wounded. Both of us got skull, and brain trauma. We underwent surgery, but I could not speak normally and we were taken to Germany for treatment.
In Germany we underwent further surgery. When we got better, we were taken to many interesting places: the whirligig, zoo, swimming-pool. In the zoo I saw many animals that I have never seen. At Christmas, Santa Claus visited us and brought us presents. When we woke up in the morning, we found them in the boot hanging on the door. We were so happy. We saw trees decorated with lovely bulbs too. We enjoyed being in Germany, but we missed our dad and sister and were glad to come back home.
