“Rudy Steiner slept” but not like momma and papa. Rudy laid unconscious on the ground. He was mistaken for dead, but inside him his heart was still beating and he was breathing very softly (Zusak 498). He laid there while his mind went somewhere else. His thoughts were with his parents, his brothers and sisters.Then he thought about a girl, yes Liesel Meminger he wanted to get up and go to her and protect her.
Two months later, Rudy Steiner woke once again. He had been in a coma not aware of anything and waking up to a new and different world. He woke and saw that right next to him, on a chair, sound asleep and with a book in her hand was Liesel. He tried calling her, but no words come out. Then he called her name once again, this time a whisper followed but not loud enough to wake up Liesel. Rudy was getting ready to call for Liesel again when she awoke. She jumped up to see that Rudy after two long months of waiting was finally awake. She wanted to hug him, but instead she said, “Saukerl it was about time.” Liesel with a smile on her face and tears rolling down her checks. She couldn’t help but to just look at Rudy. Tears kept coming when she saw herself in Rudy’s eyes once again and then those happy tears soon became sad tears, for Liesel knew that she had to tell Rudy that his family had not survived the day of the bombing. After a few hours of talking with Rudy she had told him everything from the cleanup of the town, to the day that the Americans freed them.
Many years later and to finish off this story, Rudy and Liesel Steiner had “lived to a very old age, far away from Molching and the demise of Himmel Street” (Zusak 543). They lived a happy life but never forgot what they once had lived and always remembered their love ones. Liesel and Rudy had four children Brandon 25, Max 23, Hans 20, and Rosa 18. They were very proud of their parents and looked up to them for how brave they were throughout their lives. They would tell their friends about their parent’s life story and how they didn't know if they would had made it if they had to live in a world were people got treated like animals and everyone believed and followed one man.
