"Hey Sebabive, remember when you were sick and I had to take care of you secretly, without the Hutus and Tutsis catching us together, during the war?" "Yeah, it was so hard to stay alive." She replied. "We were thirteen and lived in Rwanda, Central Africa. We never knew each other existed, until our gurdians told us we had siblings." "I can't believe I went through that part of my life not knowing you." Sebabive remarked. "I remember the whole story..." Gahiji said. It all started on April 6, 1994. Our guardians told us we had a twin and were separated at birth because our parents were in different ethnic groups. Our mother gave birth secretly, so we wouldn't get hurt. It was against the law for Hutus and Tutsis to be together. Also that the war had started. When I found that out, I went searching on the Hutu grounds, trying not to be caught. I was a Tutsi, and she was a Hutu. As I was walking, I found a girl about the same age as me, and asked her if she knew a Sebabive. The polite girl said she did. So I wanted to know where I could find her. She said she was Sebabive, and asked if I was Gahiji. I told her I was and was surprised to see that I was staring at my own twin sister. We were walking and talking about our lives until we heard a gun shot and a yell. The sound of the scream of the woman was as strident as a long nail scratching a black board. We ran behind a bush to see what was happening in the village. Hutus were violently attacking the Tutsis with machetes like knives, sticks, and sling shots. We were terrified of what we saw. So we stayed in the woods for the day. Since we still heard fighting and screaming, we slept near a tree. When I woke up, I noticed that Sebabive was sweating bullets, and it was chilly out. I felt her head and she had a fever as high as I've ever seen. I had to take care of her without anyone knowing. She was the only one out of her tribe that has ever gotten that sick. Once i left her i came back to see how she was doing and she had not got any better at all and i was very worried about her. Then she told me not to come back anymore and just do what I had to do to stay alive. So i had to agree because i did not want to make her mad that i was not following her directions. I do not ever want to make her feel any worse than she already feels. so i decided to look after her in secret i couldn't just leave her there sick. Everyday I came to her without her knowing until the day she caught. She yelled at me but after she gave me a hug for caring so much about her. After she got better we decided to start meeting in secret places again."
