Day five

Little by little I started to understand babushku.
When she said, "Hochesh estj?" it meant, "Want to eat?"

Day four

I'm laying on my back staring at potolok, thinking. Where did I come from? I must have been somewhere else before this komnata. I'm trying to remember, but it's all blank. Maybe I suffered a brain damage and have amnesia?

Day three

Being wet and hungry woke me up, so I'm yelling, "Waaaaa..."
Babushka came running, "Seichas, seichas...", pulled the plastic bag off my butt, efficiently re-wrapped me in a clean dry cloth and walked off, leaving my behind the wooden bars.

Day two

I couldn't believe it: mama got up and was taking me somewhere, and syestra, who I thought was in charge of me, was staying! She smiled at me and said, "Budj schastliva dyetka," and was gone from my life forever.
Papa met mama outside and we all climbed into a huge crib with doors and windows.

Day one

I opened my eyes and saw a bunch of large beings surrounding me. The one who held me announced, "Eto devochka!"
I opened my mouth to say, "Take me to your leader," but all that came out of it was, "Waaa."
The being holding me pointed to another - a very sick looking being, and said, "Eto tvoya mama."
Great! Of all the healthy creatures in the room they give me to a loser! I screamed, "Waaa," in indignation.
