I Heard The News! Three weeks later the Rosens are living in a small barn. On the side of the barn it says “Old Yard”. It has 2 wooden chairs and some straw in a little area. One day Mrs. Rosen went to get a newspaper and some people were talking. One said to Mrs. Rosen, “My name is Terry M. Braun. Did you hear the war is over?” Then it got dark and started to sprinkle. Mrs. Rosen said, “I have to get home.” Then she ran home and told Mr. Rosen that a man named Terry M. Braun said the war was over. Then Mr. Rosen asked Mrs. Rosen what he looks like. She replied, “He has long hair, green eyes, and orange hair.” Mr. Rosen said it was his old friend from school. The next day they heard a knock on the door and they answered the door and a man said “Terry fell down the stairs.” Mr. Rosen ran to the back of the barn and said “Mrs. Rosen, where are our aid kits?” “They are by the wheel,” said Mrs. Rosen. “I think I fond them.” Mr. Rosen ran out the door. “Terry are you ok?” “I think so.” Terry replied. Mr. Rosen said, “I will wrap your arm and it will feel better.” After he wrapped his arm, he ran home and told everybody he is ok. Mr. Rosen sat down and took a rest. Mrs. Rosen and Ellen are talking about going to Denmark and said they could go on a plane but they have no money. Ellen went to her straw bed and pulled a box out and it had some money. Mrs. Rosen said, “Where do you get all that money?” Ellen said “I got it from cleaning Uncle Henrik’s house with Annemarie.” Mrs. Rosen said, “Are you sure?” Ellen said “YES!” Mrs. Rosen got on the plane. “We are leaving,” Ellen said “I would like my necklace.” A few hours later they landed in Denmark. The Rosens were glad to be in Denmark again. “Now how are we going to get to Copenhagen?” Ellen asked. “Copenhagen is like 300 miles away.” Mr. Rosen said “We could get a ride to the bus stop, I think I have enough money for a bus ride.” So they got a ride to the bus stop from Uncle Henrik’s friend. They stepped onto the bus, they knew they were on their way home. Ellen got off the bus and saw the apartment building. Mr. Rosen went to the block and said, “Home Sweet Home.” Ellen said “Lets go to the Johansons’ house.” Mrs. Rosen said “OK”. So they went up the stairs and to the Johansons’ door and knocked on it. “No one is home,” Ellen said “but I would like my necklace.” The Rosens all go down the hall to their door. When they opened the door, they saw all their neighbors in the Rosen house. “Welcome Home” everyone said.
