Section Two

I feel they're closing in. I don't know what I've done or how they know it, but I sense a change. There's a change in the kids' attitude. I'm sure this isn't just paranoia on my part.
Only today, Giuseppe, a youngish boy of about fourteen, refused to speak to me and made the sign of the stuck-pig. I'm finished, he seemed to be implying. He then moved away quickly.
The Gauleiters get very agitated and their Capitanos get extremely cocky and aggressive, brushing past me with inches to spare. My boots have got motor-cycle scuff-marks around the ankles.
Some kids seemed to have stopped coming.
Others don't seem to be going to school anymore.
Things don't sound too good.
