Why did Sera invite them?! I know that I missed dad, but I really don't need mom's expectaions right now!

The table had started to turn more quiet when I noticed that Al was staring at Richter and Sera who were the only ones still talking.

"Al?"

"How the fuck are they not fighting? Richter loves to start shit with 'holier than thou' people."

I notice it too. Richter and my sister seem to be actually getting along. Talking about different ways to go about finalizing the new relationship between Heaven and Hell. They didn't even seem to notice that everyone was now eyeing them.

I turn to look back at my parents and notice my dad with a sly smile. I then remember how red in the face Richter was when he first arrived.

"Dad, what did you do?"

He tries to act like he doesn't know, "Don't ask me. I would never try to set anyone up."

"...Dad...I might need to tell you a few things about Richter in the other room if you don't mind?"

"Sure sweetie, but this is awfully strange and out of nowhere."

I then get up and my father follows me as mother gawks at Sera laughing at one of Richter's jokes. Once we are a fair bit away in the kitchen I turn to face him.

"So first off, do you know he's a sinner?"

"Yep. Talked about it on the way here."

"Do you know he occupied my mind for a bit?"

"Yep. Didn't seem like a problem."

"Did he tell you about when he was alive?"

"Nope, is there something I should know?"

"Yeah...How good is your knowledge of Germany during the 1940's?"

My dad's face went paler than usual.

"Is he Hitler?"

"What? No! Everyone down there basically executed him a long time ago, but he was a Nazi."

Dad seemed troubled now that he realized he had just set up his eldest daughter with a Nazi.

"He isn't a Nazi anymore though, he actually fought them in the last year or so of his life."

"Do you know this, or did he tell you this?"

"He told me, and Al backed his story...but he wasn't alive at the time so he only heard word of mouth."

My dad started to panic slightly but calmed himself before calling out.

"Richter! Come to the kitchen alone please!"

After some silence a very confused looking Richter appeared in the door way.

"Yes sir?"

"Come closer."

I already knew what my dad was planning. He was going to comb Richter's mind and see if his story checks out. I watched as Richter warily approached my dad.

"Do not worry, this won't be painful. I simply must know the truth about you."

My father then reached out his hand and it vanished into Richter's chest as Richter instantly went slack. My dad's face remained determined as his eyes clouded over. After a few moments he began to shake, but with fear.

"D-dad?"

Suddenly he released Richter who managed to catch himself before he hit the floor. Dad was in a similar state which wasn't normal for him. My father looked at Richter with what looked like pity.
