00:00Some friends had come to the house to help us to get through this, and I went to the airport
00:05to pick up my daughter in the afternoon.
00:07She comes in, finally, she sees me and said, oh, dad, papa, what happened to you?
00:12And I had to lie that I had run into a door that had an accident.
00:16Then I took her home, and then she was surprised to find basically an empty house.
00:20She found all the people there, and she said, why are all these people?
00:24I said, oh, that's for your birthday.
00:26So we had to continue lying to her.
00:28We never told her about the incident, but she was wondering why there was no TV, why there was no
00:33music, why I had no clothes, why there was no car.
00:37So we had to pretend.
00:38So in a way, it was very difficult because we were so much under shock, but it was also, in
00:45a way, a protection because we couldn't speak openly, constantly about what happened.
00:50So for me, that was a wake-up call.
00:54It was an awakening into what this world is, unfortunately, about as well.
01:00So in the first days after the incident, I was, like, shivering whenever I saw guns.
01:04And there were lots of guns still in the streets of Kampala at the time because it was not long
01:09after the civil war.
01:10So you're watching people.
