Six mois plus tard, en jouant aux cachettes avec mon frère Paul, je m'enfermai dans le bas du buffet, après avoir repoussé les assiettes. Pendant que Paul me cherchait dans ma chambre, et que je retenais mon souffle, mon père, ma mère et ma tante entrèrent dans la salle à manger.
Elle prétendait se mêler à nos jeux mais fondait en larmes lorsque Paul, pour la distraire, montait sur la table et faisait plonger sa poupée dans la lessiveuse, ou quand pour jouer aux cachettes, on l’enfermait à clef dans un placard entre les vêtements naphtalinés.
