COMMODO – THE GODFATHERS OF ITALIAN MAFIA - DIANNA DIVERNO
When he was six years old, Alvaro Bartosz, was one of the most troubled boys in the orphanage. Workers said he would go into the history of the orphanage as a problem - number one. He had an unwavering will, was rebellious, headstrong, overconfident and egotistical. He has always strived to be the undisputed leader in all board games - either as team captain or as someone who devises a plot.
When visiting prospective parents at the orphanage, Alvaro would be notified and he would perform such nonsense and obscenities to sway any sane who would want to take him into custody. The conclusion would always be the same - Alvaro was not an eligible boy for adoption.
He was a very nice kid, a nice guy, a nice man. Its beauty has not diminished despite any period of growing up. Some parents therefore wanted to adopt him, but his behavior was always crucial.
During his childhood, there was no punishment that Alvaro did not push over his back. Starting from kneeling to a corner, writing a hundred times on the board "I will no longer be naughty", to working in the yard ... No punishment for him was harsh and severe enough to soften him with. On the contrary, he was getting worse, acting even more rebellious and daring. Two workers quit because of him, two went on sick leave, and one had a nervous breakdown.
Alvaro looked at it all with his audacious confidence and smile.
His friends were afraid of him. Fighting was a common occurrence on his part. The girls ran away from him because he dragged them by the hair and threw them at the slingshot ... Much later there was no woman he failed to seduce. In his cruel attitude to the world and everything, there was one bright spot - he loved women. The female gender would always instinctively feel that, and that was the most attractive thing on him.
As a young man of seventeen, he was ruthless. Like many cruel people who enjoyed living above the infirm, he enjoyed a refined religiosity. On Sundays, he would always go to church and act utterly humble, but the evil glow in his eyes could not change anything. He belonged to a group of people who were said to be born evil and there were no changes. He was tall, with dark hair and eyes, with straight lines. He was always neatly shaven, and for a while, he nonchalantly released his hair. He wore an expensive watch and a jewelry ring. He loved the dark pastel colors and gourmet dinners very finely prepared and served.
At nineteen, he first met John, who told him that he was a very good friend of his mother and that he would help him conquer the world.
Alvaro wondered himself - how?
John liked him as a person.
He was everything a man in the eyes of a young boy could be - dangerous, unpredictable, rich, influential ... And a killer! Alvaro accidentally discovered this, noting that Ivan was always carrying a gun with him, and once by chance he heard a conversation about whether this man was dead and if not when he should be. But he never mentioned it before him. He moved to one of Ivan's apartments (Ivan had 8 apartments in Italy). The apartment consisted of one room, anteroom, dining room, kitchen and bathroom and was located on the top floor of a four-story building. There was no elevator, but Alvaro didn't mind. In relation to the orphanage, this was like a gift from heaven...
