Matt nodded. "I stuck my fingers in his eyes and he dropped me, so I ran like crazy and got out of the garden. There were some trees out back and a big... thing... Mr Wammy said it was an oil tanker. You know the ones on the back of lorries? But this was old. It was rusted. There was a ladder up the side and a hole in the top, where they get the oil out. I got in it and it was too small for an adult to get in. It was dark and smelt of stuff. I couldn't see a ladder to get back out again. My papá leaned his arm in and shot all around it, but he missed me. He did that twice, but he knew I was still alive. He banged on the outside telling me to come out, but I couldn't even if I wanted to, because there was no ladder. He just kept on banging until there was gunshots. I don't know if he killed himself or if the other men killed him. I just kept very quiet and even though I heard them, they didn't find me. Watari said it was nearly three days before they used sniffer dogs and they shone a torch in and found me." |
