The war did not begin with guns.It began with whispers.Whispers carried through villages at dusk. Whispers about men in the mountains. Whispers about freedom. Whispers about a country that would one day belong to its people. In the villages of rural Rhodesia during the years of the Rhodesian Bush War, children learned quickly that silence could save lives.Girls carried secrets the way they carried water-balanced carefully, without spilling. Among those girls were Tariro and Nyasha.They were neighbors. They were friends. They were daughters of the same dusty soil. And like many young girls of the time, they would become Chimbwidos, helping the guerrilla fighters of the liberation armies.They believed they were serving freedom.They did not know the war would also take something from them that could never be returned.But they would survive.And survival sometimes grows into something darker.
