Moreover they were talking abou the Sign as the Arabs, what Sign? Years after the
kidnnaping, I still looking me at the mirror searching for the holy Sign that had taken those
unfortunate to the death; and I never found anything abnormall. Neither suspected that Dad
believed in existence of such signal –Or stigma? –.
A torment of ideas were spinning disordered, while I was seen absently Rudolph Hess
examinating the silver serpent.
Suddenly, introducing the hand through the neckline of the windbreaker jacket, he
extracted a cord that surrounded his neck. There was a silver serpent hanging on it, exactly
equal to mine!
Rudolph Hess had joined them in his hand for the contemplation of my Dad and, after
some minutes, he put his own and saved the other in the pocket. Instants later both were
entering to the warm livingroom without mentioning the theme of their precedent
conversation.
This reserved attitude convinced me about the inconvenience to talk in some manner of
the matter, because I’d reveal the censurable committed espionage. I didn’t think it a lot: I’d
quiet until they talk me about it directly, but I promised to myself to do the impossible to
obtain information concerning to the mysterious Sign.
Were the two o’clock in the morning and Uncle Kurt stood up with the intention to leave
to his room. I didn’t reproach this attitude due to he had been talking many hours, but the
narration awakened inquietudes and questions in my Spirit, turning me impatient and
thoughtless.
–Uncle Kurt –I said – It’s late, I know and I also know that tomorrow we’ll have to
continue the conversation, but I really need you to answer two questions before you leave.
–Hahahaha –He laughed with his terrible horselaugh –You’re just like Me at your age:
you need to obtain answers to live. It’s like a thrist. I comprehend you neffe, what do
you want to know?
–Just two things –I said–. First: Is there any chance that such Sign that the Arabs saw on
you, be the same that Belicena Villca saw on me?
–Undoubtedly neffe –He replied–. The sign means a lot of things, but it is also a
Sanguine Signum and both of us have the same blood. The blood is not a determinant factor
for the apparition of the Sign but it is a «condition of quality»; if a sign appears in members of
our family is the same sign.
