[b]History:[/b] Delphine is the 3rd child born to Jean and Marion Petiot. Her parents were born in Paris. Her mother, Marion, was raised in a Catholic orphanage and her father came from a family of shop workers that were barely clinging to middle class. They met and married young and decided to strike out away from the city. That seemed ages ago, though their childhood is worth mention because the nurture aspect continued to affect their children. Delphine’s parents had always been the “keep your head down and be invisible” types. They opened the bar/café “Porte Cachée”; they worked hard and they went to church, and most importantly they kept their mouths closed. They were the neighbors that no one even bothered to gossip about. Even their children, and they had 7 in good Catholic fashion, adapted to this silent meek personality. All except Delphine and her eldest brother Bertrand. When France began to turn against its own people her brother Bertrand, who was by far her favorite sibling and her only true friend, was “recruited”. Her parents were convinced that in the long run this was a good thing. Her brother would learn to mellow his personality and their house would have contributed to the Vichy. They smiled and hugged her brother. They let him/made him leave, and she would never forgive any of them. She rested on her knees, hands crossed, and spoke to the Father about all of the anger that was building up inside her. Why couldn’t God give her the temperament and ability to accept what was? The father spoke to her then as he would any child. He attempted to quell her anger and lead her down a path of forgiveness. It wasn’t until she exited confession that the Father offered up another path. A path would give her anger a path of expression that would not lead to a sickness and a corruption in her soul. Porte Cachée thrived in the Vichy rule. This influenced her parents to become even more accepting of the new politics than they already were. She feigned a change of heart after her conversation with the Priest, easily passing her anger off as normal teenage rebellion/angst. Her parent's accepted this, mainly because they wanted to believe that their 2nd rebellious child had turned over a new leaf. She even offered to pick up more and more work at the Café and eased the burden of parenthood and bar management for her parents.
