Description
He moved his hand slowly and took a revolver from his inside pocket. Mother, who was holding my little sister in her arms, screamed. I started to cry, and Anatoly, no understanding what was happening, also screamed from fear. Pointing the gun at Father, he ordered him to get out of the house, but Father stood tall and noble, and remained dignified in the face of this cruel threat. He then looked at us, made the sign of the cross, and went outside. Mother screamed again, but her screams were lost in the wailing of the wind. There was nowhere we could go, so she grabbed us and fell to her knees in front of the icons in the corner of the room.
