Description | Witnessing a scene where thousands of people were running about in confusion, with parents and children calling each other's names, at the age of 15, I thought this was a living hell. There was a mobilized girl student with her face swollen and purple due to burn injuries. She was whispering, "Please give me some water, water please." I wished I'd had some water. This memory still makes me sick at heart. I always wonder if she's still alive. |
