Dear diary,


    We heard explosions throughout the night.


    Bobby is pretending to be okay but I saw him secretly crying by himself. I''ve told him that everything is going to be okay. And tomorrow the Butcher is going to knock on the door with a smile on his face, victorious against whatever it is he''s fighting out there.Stolen novel; please report.


    Theodore is scared of the explosion too. He''s been hiding beneath the couch and whimpering whenever there''s another boom. I don''t feel scared at all. Everything is going to be okay.


    Gina and Goodman have been busy piling up furniture in front of the windows so that when they break, the glass doesn''t just spray onto us. So far it''s been working pretty well.


    Love,


    Tina
