Present day ...
In the US Holocaust museum in Washington 2 elderly frail men stood quietly side by side looking at photos on a wall of Jewish prisoners what were once in Auschwitz and they all looked young too
One of the elderly men leaned heavily on his walking stick and he had grey hair that was balding on top his navy blue eyes that shed a tear was heavy with wrinkles and also the rest of the skin was heavily wrinkled too the man was in his late 80s now and next to him stood his friend of 70 years he was a little fitter and taller his hair was snow white and also thinning and his heavily wrinkled Piecing electric blue eyes also she'd a tear he was in his 90s now
That is defiantly him oh God I remember him so well as if it was only yesterday I just wish I could turn back time to have saved him and his poor family and all those other innocent people I'm to blame for everything e taller man said sadly
I wish I could have saved them too you know Ken I had known Kyle since I was 5 years old I remember him so well growing up together lovely boy and such a nice family too well okay his mom scared me at times when she shouted you could hear her miles away but his dad was really nice and we got on well he used to be. a really sucesfull lawyer before the war and Ike his brother he was so sweet too lovely little boy but looking at him here in this photo God I don't know him that's not the Kyle that I knew not the Kyle that I remember getting loaded into the trucks never to be seen again said Stan close to tears looking at the black and white photo of the painfully thin anorexic boy with the transparent grey skin and shaved head that looked out from the photo behind the glass case
Well I only know him because of the number In the photo 627425 that was on his jacket and tattooed onto his arm but really all the prisnors looked the same with their painfully thin bodies and shaved heads they had no identity of their own that was stripped from them even your Kyle but I do remeber those amazing bright green eyes of his like precious beautiful Emeralds and I seen him when he first came to the camp terrified he was and also he still had that wild mop of amazing thick vibrant red curls in what they now call a jewfro I could imagine how soft they'd be to touch oh god he was a stunning looking boy it was heartbreaking when they cut off all his hair down to the scalp I just felt so bad as I stood by and watched all that happened and when they tattooed his pale flesh I'll never forget his screams of agony he had a low pain threshold poor guy I wish I could have helped him more Kenny said sadly fighting back tears
Look Kenny is wasn't your fault you told your evidence in court an how you tried to help the prisnors the survivors spoke up for you too that you were good to them bringing them extra food and that they liked you and it was that wast of space Cartman who was the evil one and he hurt Kyle the most not you Stan said rubbing Kennys back
I know I know that Stan but I watched that beautiful boy be broken and destroyed and I did nothing I just stood back and let it happen Kenny sobbed glancing at the photo of Kyle again before looking at a glass box that contained 2 diaries and one had a lots of bits of paper around it with more entries
Did you know that Kyle kept a diary and he even added more entries too it right up to when he was began Kenny then he began chocking back tears as he couldn't say it
Yes I did I remember him mentioning it he got is as a Hanukkah present from his aunts I got one too that's mine their and Ike got one but he scribbled on his and did drawings of anything really but didn't make sense really I always kept a diary for some reason maybe I fancied myself as a writer so when Kyle got his I told him about mine and he didn't feel so bad really he put a few entries in it when I was their and we'd often go to each others houses that was before his was burned down in Kristallnacht also Kyle saved that diary too shoved it in his dressing gown pocket then he and his family came and stayed with us all they had was the clothes they had on so we gave them clothes food and that also Mrs Broflovski managed to save the family's passports and ID cards and the family's priceless silver as their house wasent set on fire right away so they stayed with us till we found them a place at dads offices then someone tipped the Nazies off their was Jews still in hiding then dads offices were raided we were lucky that we weren't arrested really but they took dad in for questioning but he was released a few days later without charge but we never seen Kyle or his family again and when they loaded him into the truck at gun point I felt terrible Kyle was crying so was his brother and mom as they knew their fate really but after the war ended and the camps freed I decided to search for Kyle as i had kept his diary for him and i wanted to return it i left it the way hed left it so I looked everywhere in all the camps as they had been opened to the public for the German people to see and that's when I found you and learned what happened Stan said sadly
Yeah I remember that day well also I found the diary or the sheets of paper hidden under a loose floorboard of the barracks where Kyle slept I think he wanted it to be found to tell the world about the horrors he'd gone though sighed Kenny looking at the 2 diaries
So how did he get the paper then i thought that was forbidden asked Stan curious
Oh it was forbidden then but his cousin Jacob Worked in the office area and so he got it and the pencils too he just stole small pieces of paper at a time so no one noticed them missing and even one time Kyle and Jacob switched places as Kyle looked a bit like Jacob but I knew it was Kyle as Jacob had brown eyes and sort of buck teeth even though they had their sleeves over their hands so you couldn't see their tattoos and they'd switched uniform jackets least it gave Kyle a brake from the heavy work he was doing but anyway the paper was half hidden in the loose floorboard peeking out so as I said I'm sure it was ment to be found and I'm glad I'm the one that found it Kenny sighed looking at the 2 diaries along with Stan and seeing them the years seem to melt away taking Stan back to his childhood and when he knew Kyle
Well that's that chappy done I have made Kenny older than the boys in this story as he's going to be a nice SS officer who will help Kyle also Jacob belongs to Saturday night live Jacob the Bar Mitzvah boy he'd make an awesome Cuzzy for Kyle and I like him too yeah I know he's played by a girl lol next chappy up soon
