Cupid complained. Pablo’s shout took her off guard. One moment he was sleeping and the next moment he fell down from the bed while screaming ’motherfucker’ at that.
Pablo was covered with sweat all over. He was panting heavily and Cupid became tense. She never saw Pablo like that.
"Did you have a bad dream?" She asked.
"Nightmare."
"What did you see?"
"My life."
"Take it easy. Deep breaths." Cupid stayed beside Pablo. There was genuine worry on her face.
Pablo even forgot to speak through his mind.
He closed his eyes, took a deep breath and drank some water.
After five minutes, he managed to calm himself down.
He sat on the bed, wide awake. His sleep vanished.
"What did you dream about, anyway? It’s strange to see you all fed up." Cupid asked.
’Do you really want to know?’ Pablo started talking through his mind.
"Yes, of course."
Pablo sighed. ’Do you know why I killed my family?’
"Because your evil side was taking its roots?"
’No. I was manipulated.’
Cupid’s brows shot up. "By whom?"
Pablo gritted his teeths. ’Adolf Hitler.’
"Tell me everything." Cupid wanted to know the life of Pablo for a while now. Pablo seemed willing to share it and the Angel won’t miss a chance like that.
’Our family was living a good life but things went dark when Hitler invaded Poland. We were Jews and we hid ourselves very well. We remained safe for a long time. But misfortune finds you anywhere. We were uncovered by the Nazis.’
"Then?"
’Then we were kept inside the concentration camp like everyone else. It was painful. It was heartbreaking. At first, the soldiers were hurting us because we were Jews but as time went on, the soldiers hurt us just because they can. They started having fun. I hadn’t met Hitler at that time but one day, that happened as well.’
"How?"
’The soldiers tried to rape my mother. And when I saw that, I snapped. I picked up a stone and shoved it right inside the eyes of the soldier who saw my mother with lust. I revolted against them. And as always, the result of revolting is death. The soldiers pinned their guns on my head. I was very small back then. I only blinded the soldier because of the rage I had. Adrenaline was running in my veins. The guns of the soldiers didn’t scare me. And with the best of my abilities, I proposed an offer to the soldiers. I said, ’Take me to your Leader. Take me to Adolf Hitler.’’
"And did they accept the offer?"
’They did.’ Pablo nodded. ’They were sure that Hitler would kill me. They wanted to see my death so they accepted my proposal and took me to him. I was thrown in front of me. He was seated in a chair in front of me like some fcuking King. I kept my composure and waited for the soldiers to tell him about the situation. After a few seconds, Hitler looked at me and said, ’Speak’ and I did.’
"What did you propose?"
’I told him to let my family go and I’ll do his bidding for my entire life. I’ll become his slave. That’s what I said.’
"And what was his answer?"
’He laughed. He laughed out loud. He fucking laughed. That bastard.’
"So he refused your offer?"
’Not only did he refuse my offer. He did something worse. I still regret that day. I should have just died by the guns of those soldiers. I shouldn’t have proposed a meeting with Hitler. Everything went downhill just after meeting Hitler.’
"What did he do exactly?" Cupid asked again.
’He started manipulating me. He brainwashed me. He made me think that he was right and everyone was wrong. That bastard even made me think that my parents were evil.’
Pablo clenched his fists. ’He made me believe that my parents don’t love me. They only love my twin brother. They didn’t want me. And I, like a fucking idiot, believed him.’
"That’s… how could you believe him? You should have asked for proof. You should have questioned him."
’He was a shrewd bastard, Angel. There was a reason he was able to recruit many soldiers for himself. He had a way with words. ’Stand up for me as I have stood up for you.’ such words could make even a saint stand up for him.’
"Still, how did he manipulate you to just straight out kill your parents and brother?"
’When he heard that I blinded a soldier with just a stone, he sensed potential in me and decided to use me for his deeds. And for that, he needed me to cut ties from my family. For him to completely use me, he needed me to become entirely alone. And he acted on this plan right away.’
Cupid stayed silent and Pablo continued his story.
’First, he told me that my parents don’t care about me. I asked him why he thinks like that? Then he said, ’You are here in front of me. You are in trouble. And yet, your parents are nowhere to be seen. They didn’t even come to save you. They would have begged me to leave you but they are not doing anything. They simply don’t care.’
I instantly said that’s not true but deep down, a suspicion was raised. My parents really weren’t there. When the soldiers had pinned their guns on my head, no one came forward to help me. Not even my parents. They just watched.’
Cupid said nothing and Pablo proceeded.
’Hitler then gave me a uniform of his soldiers and I wore it. He gave me food as well. He then said, ’I will show you how much your parents care for you.’ I didn’t understand but I gave him the chance to show me that. He brought me to my parents and they were sleeping soundly. My father, my mother, they were sleeping peacefully.
Hitler said, ’See this? You were taken away by my soldiers and yet they are sleeping like nothing matters. If this is their love for you, then it’s rotten.’ My little brain couldn’t figure out what was right or wrong. I only believed what I saw. My parents were doing fine without me. That’s what I believed.
Hitler then took me away, he taught me how to use guns, he taught me how to fight, how to speak. He taught me essential things required to be a soldier. Still, I wasn’t completely on the verge of killing my family. He needed something concrete to make me do that. And he did find something concrete.
One day, Hitler came to me and said, ’It’s time you should do some health tests. It is also crucial for a soldier to stay fit.’ I agreed and was sent to a room. It was a typical operation room and at that time I didn’t know what was going on. There was one doctor in the room and he gave me instructions. He told me to lay on the bed and I did. After that, an injection was inserted in my veins and I lost consciousness.
I woke up after who knows how long and the first person I saw was Hitler. He was standing in front of me with a big smile and I didn’t know why.
’Now you are one of us.’ He said to me and I thought I finally became one of the soldiers. I got the job. It was a good thing for me at that time.
After that day, the soldiers began treating me with respect, and I trained really hard as well. And you might find it strange, but Hitler wasn’t ordering me to harm the people kept captive in the concentration camps. I was fine with that. I was just a kid who didn’t like violence.’
"You didn’t like violence. Right." Cupid gave a doubtful gaze.
’I mean at that time I didn’t like it. Anyway, Hitler kept me away from my parents for three weeks. He had posed this condition to me. If I stay with him he won’t harm my parents. And obviously, I had accepted it.
But one day, Hitler came to me and said, ’You should meet your parents again. Maybe this time they will be happy to see you. Although, it’s been three weeks since you haven’t met them and not once did they try to look for you. Still, let’s hope for the best.’ I rejoiced. I really missed my parents. I was sure they missed me as well. I told Hitler to take me to them and he did.
And the moment I saw my parents, and the moment they saw me, evil stepped its first foot in my heart.’
"Why was that? If your parents were even a little bit sane then they would have embraced you like any normal person does with their child. What did they do?"
Pablo turned his head at the Angel and told her what his own parents did…
’They didn’t recognise me.’
