Auf einem langen Weg

by Gudrun Pausewang

»Jetzt ist es soweit«, rief die Mutter nervös. »Wir müssen weg. Heute Abend müssen wir auf dem Bahnhof sein. Wir werden in den Westen gebracht.« Achim verstand nicht, worum es ging. Er war ja auch erst sechs Jahre alt. Werner aber wußte, was das bedeutete: Die Stadt würde bald beschossen werden. Deshalb sollten vorher
alle Frauen mit Kindern und alle Alten und Kranken fortgebracht werden.
