It was the beginning of the greatest Christmas ever. Little food. No presents. But there was a snowman in their basement.

She walked down the basement steps. She saw an imaginary framed photo seep into the wall - a quiet-smiled secret. No more than a few meters, it was a long walk to the drop sheets and the assortment of paint cans that shielded Max Vandenburg. She removed the sheets closest to the wall until there was a small corridor to look through. The first part of him she saw was his shoulder, and through the slender gap, she slowly, painfully, inched her hand in until it rested there. His clothing was cool. He did not wake.
She could feel his breathing and his shoulder moving up and down ever so slightly. For a while, she watched him. Then she sat and leaned back.
Sleepy air seemed to have followed her.
The scrawled words of practice stood magnificently on the wall by the stairs, jagged and childlike and sweet. They looked on as both the hidden Jew and the girl slept, hand to shoulder.
They breathed.
German and Jewish lungs.

The sky is blue today, Max, and there is a big long cloud, and it's stretched out, like a rope. At the end of it, the sun is
like a yellow hole. . .

***HERE IS A SMALL FACT ***
You are going to die.


I am in all truthfulness attempting to be cheerful about this whole topic, though most people find themselves hindered in believing me, no matter my protestations. Please, trust me. I most definitely can be cheerful. I can be amiable. Agreeable. Affable. And that's only the A's. Just don't ask me to be nice. Nice has nothing to do with me.

When finally she finished and stood herself up, he put his arm around her, best-buddy style, and they walked on. There was no request for a kiss. Nothing like that. You can love Rudy for that, if you like.

Ljudi nemaju srce poput mojeg. Ljudsko srce je pravac, moje je kružnica,
a imam i beskrajnu sposobnost da budem u pravo vrijeme na pravome mjestu.
Slobodno tome, uvijek zatičem ljude u najboljen i najgorem izdanju.
Vidim njihovu ružnoću i njihovu ljepotu, i pitam se kako ista stvar može
biti i jedno i drugo. Pa ipak, na jednome im zavidim.
Ljudi su, ako ništa drugo, dovoljno razumni da umru.

Markus Zusak
