Final Summary

pages 154-268

After nearly two years in hiding Anne compared herself to when they first went into hiding to their present time and she sees how much she has grown and how she yearns for a boyfreind, and Peter whom Anne has feelings for and he her becomes a trusting companion to her. Their food is getting worse as time goes by with shortages of everything or their food supplier getting arrested can really leave them without food and to make do with waht they have, Anne was still grateful to be alive and she would suck it up because having any food is better than no food. Anne seemed to be the happiest when she was with Peter, and she shared her first kiss with Peter that gave her the greatest joy. Anne even discusses her meeting with Peter to her father who seems to be fine with theit meetings but later tells Anne not to go up and see Peter everyday because she can hold the power in her hand if she refrains from Peter, Anne expressed to her father that it was not like that between her and Peter and that she trusted him. Anne is always writing to her diary that she wants to be a writer she wants to be different and not a regualr housewife, but she is skeptical if she will even get to be a writer. After the invasion began known as d-day, it gives everyone hope and their lives can be normal again, in Annes last entry she states she has a dual personality and that she could accomplish what she wanted in life if people weren't there to hold her back such as the Germans, her parents, Anne has shielded herself from others ans that was she was perceived as a troubled child but she was just protecting herself. August 4, 1944 three days after Annes last entry they were taken by the Gestapo who was told the whereabouts of the Franks by an unknown dutch informer, they were sent to Westerbork, in Poland was the last time Otto Frank would see his wife and daughters again, he was the only one to survive out of everyone in their group, after returning to Amsterdam in 1945 Miep and Elli had given him Annes diary, stories and sketches.
