I stayed with my aunt for a few days and then returned to Split to my family. In 1942 I became a member of a Zionist cell. I was very young and angry with the world and everything that was happening so I desperately wanted to do something to stop it.
After I joined the Zionist cell, my Jewish friend, who was also a member, introduced me to Bosa. Bosa was a strong, happy and very friendly girl. She told me stories about the partisans, illegal work in order to help the partisans, Comrade Tito [6] and the Communist Party.
I was hoping to become one of them, but unfortunately she didn't accept me, but told me to become a member of the SKOJ [7] instead. At first I was sad, but later I found out what a great honor it was for a young girl like me to become a member of the SKOJ.
