0:04
our childhood was stolen from us by the
0:07
darkness freedom was never
0:10
ours my brother and I survived even the
0:14
nights maybe not now but happy days
0:17
await us i know because now it's
0:20
midnight until the sun rises
1:12
the scariest and most dangerous monster
1:15
is the human being other living
1:18
creatures do whatever they can to
1:20
survive that doesn't make them monsters
1:23
however what truly turns a person into a
1:26
monster are their choices even though I
1:29
sometimes felt like a monster myself i
1:32
was simply someone trying to survive in
1:35
this dark forest because I knew how to
1:38
survive I wanted to help people i tried
1:41
to keep them alive from the beginning of
1:43
darkness until the sunrise but when I
1:46
was just a child I was battling my own
2:01
yes you are close to learning about my
2:03
grandfather's diaries but I want you to
2:06
understand the circumstances that drove
2:08
me to read those diaries better if I had
2:12
chosen not to read them and avoided
2:14
throwing myself into this adventure my
2:17
life could have been very different i'm
2:19
sure my sister's life would have been
2:21
very different as well because I was the
2:24
one who dragged her into this but you
2:27
need to understand something clearly
2:30
while it might seem like this path was
2:32
entirely our choice our family's subtle
2:35
influence also pushed us to walk down
2:37
this dark road from the outside it might
2:41
look like our decision but I have to
2:43
admit our family manipulated us a lot of
2:46
course they did it to protect us from
2:48
the dark dangers they had become
2:50
entangled in i'm not angry at them at
2:54
one point we had the chance to run away
2:57
but that kind of behavior wasn't in my
3:00
nature or my sisters as a result our own
3:04
choices defined who we were yes choosing
3:08
this dark path and turning into a
3:10
monster feared by the wicked was our
3:12
decision because the good deserved to
3:14
live in this world more than anyone
3:23
else that night was like a scene from a
3:26
horror movie what had I
3:29
experienced what had happened to my
3:31
grandfather why did he smell so foul why
3:35
were my grandmother's hands so cold why
3:41
paralyzed where had my grandmother
3:48
else what was that whisper I heard
3:50
before falling to the
3:53
ground who was behind that
3:58
whisper i've come for you close your
4:05
after taking just three steps I had
4:08
fainted when I opened my eyes I was in a
4:12
state of temporary paralysis that I had
4:14
mentioned to you before i think it's
4:17
called sleep paralysis or something like
4:19
that i can't recall the exact scientific
4:22
term right now in this half paralyzed
4:26
state I could hear everything but I
4:29
couldn't speak i couldn't move my hands
4:32
or arms i couldn't even open my eyes my
4:36
grandfather and father who were standing
4:38
in the room thought I was
4:41
unconscious to make sure they even
4:43
tickled my feet but I couldn't react
4:47
then I heard my grandfather ask my
4:49
father what exactly did he see my father
4:53
replied "You were there." Whatever he
4:56
saw you would know better but even if he
4:59
saw something I doubt he understood it
5:02
he couldn't have heard anything before
5:04
fainting but I think we won't be able to
5:10
this then my grandfather said to my
5:13
father "You are like him but you've
5:16
already surpassed me i'm getting old now
5:19
and one day you will too i trust my
5:23
grandson one day he will be in a place
5:26
different from all of us it seems he
5:29
will also be the one to raise his sister
5:32
god what was it that my grandfather and
5:35
father wouldn't be able to keep me away
5:37
from what were they hiding what was in
5:41
that notebook or book what was it that
5:44
excited my grandfather so much there was
5:47
only one way to find out the answers to
5:49
these questions i had to learn whatever
5:52
was written in that notebook or book i
5:55
had to learn everything from the
5:57
beginning everything had become so
6:00
entangled where did my grandmother or my
6:03
mother fit into this why had my
6:06
grandmother suddenly vanished behind me
6:09
was she afraid of my grandfather was I
6:12
the only one who had heard that whisper
6:15
god why was I experiencing all of this
6:18
for no reason the time had come to seek
6:22
the answers to these questions but I
6:24
didn't know where to start i was simply
6:27
piecing together clues from events that
6:31
coincidences it was as if I were
6:33
searching for the missing pieces of a
6:35
puzzle i was sure I would find them but
6:38
I was afraid of what I might learn more
6:41
specifically I was scared of discovering
6:44
that the people I knew my family were
6:47
completely different individuals
6:49
i didn't want to be disappointed my
6:52
sister who was blissfully unaware of
6:54
everything was just living her childhood
6:57
if you knew the darkness she was
6:59
fighting against you would admire her
7:02
i'll tell you about her as well finally
7:05
I could move my body again my
7:08
grandfather and father realized I was
7:10
awake they called out to me and asked if
7:13
I was okay what kind of question is that
7:17
of course I'm not okay i wanted to shout
7:20
at them but instead I said "I'm fine."
7:25
What happened to me because they
7:27
shouldn't know what I saw or heard if
7:30
they didn't know they wouldn't know what
7:32
to hide they told me "Your blood sugar
7:36
dropped and you fainted." What was blood
7:38
sugar a word with blood in it how ironic
7:43
was that answer anyway my eyes caught
7:46
the notebook or book my grandfather had
7:49
thrown at my father it was lying on the
7:52
table i had to find a way to read it to
7:55
distract them I said "Where did grandma
7:58
go?" She was right behind me then she
8:02
suddenly disappeared i don't remember
8:05
anything after that they asked if I felt
8:07
or heard anything else "i didn't hear
8:10
you Grandpa," I said my grandfather then
8:14
asked "No." "Did you hear or see
8:17
anything else?" "No Grandpa," I replied
8:22
my grandfather gave a meaningful look to
8:24
my father "i think they didn't believe
8:26
my lie if you're okay you can go to bed
8:31
now." "It's too late right?" they said i
8:34
got up from where I was lying but my
8:37
eyes remained fixed on the notebook
8:40
i must read that notebook as soon as
8:43
possible the secret my grandfather was
8:46
hiding had to be written in
