The Daughter of the Führer

XXXVII

♡•○•♡

《So let's say your father is a big shot in Germany, everyone knows his face and name. But what everyone knows is that he has no children, you're a secret to the entire state.》
No one knows of my existence... I'm practically a secret. I'm starting to hate secrets, they're already keeping too many behind my back!
《Does it? The name?》
I ask him curiously, well after all I'll finally get the answer I've wanted for quite a while, ever since I found out that mum and dad weren't my real parents and that I was kidnapped as a child...
《Are there no initials or signatures on the letter? 》
He asks me and I instinctively pick up the letter and examine it carefully, and no there are no signatures, I was hoping...
《No, no signature! But maybe he signed the letter inside! 》
《Yes, maybe, but are you sure you want to open that letter, after all it's for your mother?》
He asks.
《Well, Mom never got to open it, so now it's my turn to do so! 》
With that said, I start opening the envelope carefully so as not to spoil it too much, and inside I find a neatly folded letter.
I decide to start reading it.
"Dear Angelica, 16-08-1927"
It is the same date as the package!
"I came to know that you got pregnant, I was wondering how you were and the question everyone has is, who is the father."
So my father was not sure if I am his daughter, but why?
"Although by now from the rumours coming from your relatives, especially your brother, Carlo it seems to me, that he wanted to almost kill me with his own hands,"
Uncle Carlo, he wanted to almost kill my father, strangling him! But uncle is cruel! He is the monster!
"the fool was crazy, you should have seen her, we were on Lake Maggiore, I was there for one of the many meetings between high officials, you know! And I met him together with a woman walking along the lake."
The woman could be Aunt Beatrix, but how important is my father, for Germany?
"Whatever, I am certainly not writing to tell you about the disputes I have with your family, not that they are a mystery. My dear, I miss your company here in Berlin, and then I would like to plan a visit to you, to see how you are, after all I don't trust words in a letter, I hope you understand."
He has a point!
"Speaking of my visit, I would very much like to see the little creature you gave birth to, just now, if I am not mistaken?
If it is my daughter, please let me know, so I can send money or offer you accommodation here, for both of you, of course!"
Dad is really generous and kind to Mom!
"To recognise her, give her one of these names, if she has one of these names, I can tell if you are both in my life and I am in yours!
The names are: Jakob, Karl, Clara and Linda. You remember these are the names we discussed together last year when you were here in Berlin.
Let me know your final choice, I await your letter."
Now I know, sure as gold that I am her daughter, I have one of the names in the letter, which they had already chosen together some time ago.
"Know that if you're thinking you don't want to bother me or something, know that I just got a promotion, as state chancellor, so I have space and time to take care of you."
So he's the chancellor of the state! Dad is ultra important!
"The new dwelling I recently bought, has enough rooms for everyone, and I think you would also like it, it is structured in a more modern style than my previous one, which I know you didn't like very much."
So they had also lived together.
"Together with the letter, if you noticed, there is a package,"
Ah finally the package is mentioned!
"that's for the little girl or boy, it's a little thought, that he can have fun with in a few years, now maybe he's too little to have fun, with this game, but I hope he'll like it both the little one and the magnificent mother."
Oh, Daddy!
"Love, and a long kiss. Yours forever..."
Dad is so romantic even in a letter, but now let's read how he signed the letter.
"Adolf Hitler"
I decide to read it again verbally so Alex can hear it.
《Adolf Hitler》
Alex, right after I finish saying my father's first and last name, starts looking around to avoid being heard or seen.
《In the letter, Dad says that he's the chancellor of the state, is that important? Is he like the mayor? 》
I ask him, and he looks at me with a face, as if he might laugh at me in a few minutes.
