Encountered a bus of 23 men who may have been traveling between bunkers at the time?
Not very clear why her group survived…
Saw her own face in mirror, took bath, pillow. Underground corridor. Age….42ish
Perhaps you never have time when you’re alone - you only see it go by in others

Dying a diseased womb. No puberty, no men.

What prompts decisions when you’re alone?
Came up with her own measurement of distance, by time
Each bunker the same, all but one with 40 prisoners
Realize guards might also not know why they were guarding.

Experiencing death and memory changed lives. Learned to care for one another from the new environment.
Willing to kill someone out of mercy
Only one who belongs to this country…this country belongs to me
Men also died - she came across them, one wanting to die upright

A person can’t die of sorrow
Found dead women, heard sirens
Not on earth
Suitcase to end suffering. Varied reactions
Chose roommates through natural affinity when able to chose. Some couples
No period, but remembered own stories and experiences.

You think you only need to say you want to know, to have me tell you
It’s the having of a secret, not its content.
Humanity beings need to speak
Not sure why brought together. Just know they can’t know.
They touched before. Made sure we didn’t know each other.
They talked about it, but never included her.
