Today was my 17th birthday, I was lonelier than shit! I felt

so miserable! I... I didn't belong anywhere!

- Can I sit down? -

Mariano asked me, I shook my head, but he sat down anyway,

we were at school and it was lunch time.

- I've been wanting to talk to you for weeks\, you.... How

could you do it? -

I leaned back on the table and smiled at him.

- I had done it before\, so it was no big deal\, now get out\,

I don't want to see your face. -

Mariano gave me a dirty look.

- You bastard! -

I took a deep breath.

- When Piero dies\, I'm going to kill you\, and I'll take over

the business, you're no good for this, you're a fucking coward! -

Mariano got up and left, I stood there looking at everyone,

so smiling and happy, I.... I wanted some of that, I also wanted to know what

happiness is, to feel someone's embrace.

I got up and pushed those stupid thoughts away, I had to be

focused on what was really important.

*

When I got out of school, I went to practice, today I was

going to learn how to use a rifle, I was more than happy.

After practice I decided to go straight home, I was tired

and hungry.

Mariano and a couple of his friends intercepted me on the

way, I took a deep breath at the sight of them, what the ****, I knew how to

ruin a half decent day in my life!

- Why do you always have to come with more people\, aren't

you good enough to fight me, are you afraid of me? -

Mariano looked furious, and the other two guys were

laughing, each one had a piece of wood in his hands, what a bunch of assholes!

- I'm going to kill them both\, and I'm going to beat you up!

-

There was nobody where we were! Just the four of us, I was

going to have fun with them.

I took out the gun I had in my bag and shot them each in the

head, Mariano opened his eyes like saucers, I put the gun away and went over to

him, I grabbed Mariano by the shoulders and punched him.

- You are a sadist! -

He screamed as I hit him, I hit him so hard I felt my hand

dislocate, I pulled away from Mariano, his face looked like shit, he was crying

like an asshole.

- I warned you! Stop fucking with me! I've had enough of

you! -

I took out my cell phone and called Piero, I knew in advance

that the beating I was going to get was going to be epic! But I had to get rid

of the corpses.

- I killed two guys who were beating up Mariano\, and now I

don't know what to do, I need your help -

I looked at Mariano and he didn't say anything.

I looked at Mariano and he didn't say anything, he was so

angry that if he said anything I would rip his tongue out right here, and I

didn't give a shit if Piero heard me.

- I have already sent the men to solve the problem.

The father said to me with a hard voice, I hung up and

turned to Mariano.

- If you say anything\, I swear I will kill you\, I know I

will die too, but I will take with me the satisfaction of having done it,

understood? -

Mariano nodded his head, I sat down next to one of the

bodies, I looked at them and reproached myself for having wasted two bullets on

them.

- What will happen if they ask about them? some of them saw

me leaving school with them! what am I going to do? -

Mariano asked me crying.

- People get lost all the time\, don't worry\, they will end

up as food for pigs, nobody will know about this, now stop crying, it's

pathetic and depressing to see you like this- .

Mariano was crying and complaining.

Mariano was crying and complaining like a Magdalena, it was

unbelievable that he was Piero's son, they were so different! His mother had

definitely spoiled him too much.

- Stop crying! You're annoying me! Do you want another blow?

-

He shook his head and began to cry silently.

- You're a monster! -

she gasped at me.

- I'm not... I'm a demon! -

I said smiling.

*

The beating they gave me was equal or worse than I had

imagined, Mariano's asshole didn't say anything, or they would have already cut

off some limb, because my bones were already broken, but I didn't complain, I

didn't cry, I didn't even make a sound.

- Don't do anything rash like that again\, next time I won't

help you -

The father said to me, looking at me on the floor full of

blood.

- I defended your son\, and you punish me? -

he laughed.

- I know what really happened\, Mariano confessed to me after

a couple of blows - I rolled my eyes, stupid.

I rolled my eyes, stupid Mariano!

- He also told me that you threatened him\, are you going to

kill him? -

I shrugged my shoulders, making that little move made my

body ache.

- Mariano is not worthy to follow in your footsteps\, he is

weak and you know it - I shrugged my shoulders.

I shrugged my shoulders, making that little movement made my

body ache.

Father bent down and looked at me.

- Then make me think that too\, I know what you want son. -

He said stroking my hair.

- I'm almost perfect in everything\, I'm better than Mariano!

-

He nodded and gave me a couple of caresses on my cheek.

- Being better than Mariano is nothing! You yourself just

said he's weak, you have to be better than me! Do you think you can do it? -

I smiled and nodded.

- Do you know what waterboarding is?

Dad asked me and I shook my head.

- I'll show you\, I want to see how much you can endure\, if

you want to be a demon you have to live in hell. -

Father and another man tied me to a chair, put a piece of

cloth on my face and threw the chair on the floor, I endured the groan of pain

I felt when I fell.

Little by little the water started to fall on the cloth on

my face, after a moment the water started to flood my mouth and nose, I felt

the oxygen slowly leaving my lungs, I tried to hold it in as long as I could,

it was so fucking agonizing, I was going to die!
