The Diary of Anne Frank Page #2

for my cat? You've a cat?

Go ahead, but be quick.

- You only have about five minutes.

- He couldn't live without that cat.

I didn't know

you had a cat.

I love cats.

What's its name?

- Mouschi.

- What is it? Mouschi. A him or her?

- It's a tom. It doesn't like strangers.

- Then I'll have to stop being a stranger.

Is he fixed? No.

You ought to have him fixed,

to keep him from fighting.

What a nice cat.

Where do you go to school?

- Jewish Secondary. That's

where Margot and I go.

- Yeah, I know.

- I've never seen you around.

- I used to see you sometimes.

- You did?

Why didn't you

ever come over?

Oh, I don't know. I'm

sort of a lone wolf.

You can't be a

lone wolf here.

I wonder what our friends will

say when we don't show up today.

I had a date with Sanne.

Do you know Sanne de Vries?

- No. Sanne's

my best friend.

She's thin like me.

They always yell at us:

"Anne and Sanne,

the skinny bananas."

You took off your star.

That's right.

You can't do that. They'll arrest

you if you go out without your star.

Who's going out?

- Help me.

- I'm helping.

- What are you going to do with it?

- Burn it.

It's funny, I don't

think I could burn mine.

- I don't know

why. You couldn't?

Something they make you wear

so they can kick you around.

I know. But after all...

...it is the Star

of David, isn't it?

Annele, it's almost 8:00.

Don't you wanna sit with

us? Lt'll be a long day.

No, thanks. This is fine.

You won't forget to take

off your shoes, will you?

Peter...

...it's nice to

have you with us.

Yes, Mr. Frank.

See you later.

Did you know that he went

to the same school that...?

It's comforting that Mr.

Kraler and his secretary...

... are down there

below us, in the office.

Our protectors,

we call them.

I asked Father what

would happen to them...

... if anyone found

out they were hiding us.

Father said they would suffer

the same fate that we would.

We are over an

old spice factory.

You can smell the spices

all through the building.

I read A Tale of Two Cities

through in that first day.

"It is a far, far

better thing I do...

... than I have ever done.

It is a far, far better

rest that I go to...

... than I

have ever known.

The end. "

It was the saddest

book I ever read.

It is us, Miep and Kraler.

Good evening, Mr. Kraler.

Good evening, Miep.

Good evening, Annele.

- Oh, Mr. Frank.

- Yes?

- This is the box you asked for.

- Thanks.

Oh, my dear friends, you

were all so quiet up here.

- I thought you'd gone out

for a walk. Can you imagine me?

I didn't talk. I hardly

moved for one whole day.

Wish they could

hear that at school.

Mouschi! Mouschi!

Peter! Peter.
