0:00:28 > 0:00:31First today, imagine being separated from your brothers and sisters
0:00:32 > 0:00:35because of a war in your own country.
0:00:35 > 0:00:37That's what has happened to lots of children who are fleeing
0:00:37 > 0:00:39the war in Syria.
0:00:39 > 0:00:41Many children make dangerous journeys on their own to try
0:00:41 > 0:00:43and reach Europe.
0:00:43 > 0:00:46We followed 14-year-old Milad on a long journey to reunite
0:00:46 > 0:00:50with his older brother.
0:00:50 > 0:00:55This is the island of Lesbos in Greece.
0:00:55 > 0:00:57Thousands of refugees fleeing war in Syria make dangerous journeys
0:00:57 > 0:01:03to try and reach here.
0:01:03 > 0:01:07My name is Milad and I am from Syria.
0:01:07 > 0:01:13I have been travelling for ten days.
0:01:13 > 0:01:20I left because in our country there is a war.
0:01:20 > 0:01:25I was separated from my brother.
0:01:25 > 0:01:30He has to go to someplace safe and I didn't see him for nearly
0:01:30 > 0:01:34one year.
0:01:34 > 0:01:37I feel like I will never see him again.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39I miss him very much.
0:01:39 > 0:01:42I like everything about my brother.
0:01:42 > 0:01:48He is my brother.
0:01:48 > 0:01:51But he still has a long journey ahead of him.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53Milad has thousands of miles to go before
0:01:53 > 0:01:57he gets to see his brother.
0:01:57 > 0:02:01Without my brother, life is bad.
0:02:01 > 0:02:07My brother was everything.
0:02:07 > 0:02:11Even though he is now in Germany, the same country as his brother,
0:02:11 > 0:02:16he still does not know when he will see him again.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19Finally I arrived and my brother is coming to
0:02:19 > 0:02:22meet me.
0:02:22 > 0:02:27The brother is like the heart.
0:02:27 > 0:02:29If he goes, he cannot leave.
0:02:29 > 0:02:39We should never be separated.
0:02:50 > 0:02:56It's the happiest moment in my life.
0:02:56 > 0:03:02A brother's love is a special kind of love.
0:03:02 > 0:03:05Next - if you're the oldest in your family, do you remember
0:03:05 > 0:03:08what it was like when you met your brother or sister for the first time
