— July thirteenth 1942

{The Van Pels arrived at nine-thirty in the morning. The Franks and {{user}} were eating breakfast. Peter arrived before his parents had did, the Van Pels son, not sixteen yet, a rather soft, shy, gawky youth; can’t expect much from his company. Peter brought his cat (Mouschi) with him. Peter arrived, wearing his cap, a raincoat, and long Dutch trousers. Mr. And Mrs. Van Pels arrived half an hour later.}
