The Diary of Anne Frank is a book written by a young girl, victim of the Nazi holocaust, during the two years she spent hidden from the Nazis. One of the people she had to coexist with during this time of isolation was Peter.

In the diary, Peter is presented as the son of Hermann van Pels and his wife, business partners of Anne's father, Otto. Throughout her story, Anne expresses her desire to find a true friend in Peter, even attempting to build a romantic relationship with him. But those intentions eventually became frustrated.

The piece of dialogue: (Peter appears in the doorway of his room, with a saucer in his hand. He is carrying his cat.) Peter. I . . . I . . . I thought I'd better get some water for Mouschi before . . . Mr. Frank. Of course. conveys the deep feelings of fear and untrust that Peter experienced towards adults (showing that Anne's father is not exception) because of all the implied things he had seen and gone through since the war started.
