It’s the silence in the nights that frightens me most. Every time I hear a creak in the house, or a step on the street outside, I’m surely they’re coming for us. The days aren’t so bad. At least we know that Miep and Mr. Kraler are down there below us in the office. Our protectors, we call them. Which language helps build the mood of tension?

A. Silence in the nights
B. Every time I hear a creak in the house.
C. I’m sure they are coming for us.
D. All of the above.
