...PART TWO'S...
Pretoria... Is this a coincidence? My parents and Miu's parents have been to Pretoria? Why does this sound strange..
"Ehm, having an affair is like having a silent relationship, even though they already have lovers, like Pappaku and the noble woman, they are having an affair" Miu said again wiping her mouth with a tissue.
"I got it-then Pretoria? Have Pappa and Mammu been there? It feels impossible, it's impossible to happen but I don't know. Did both your parents attend the Valentine's Festival?" tanya Train threw her eyes at the koi fish clustered in the pond, like the eyes of Mipun staring nanar in the same direction.
"Si, they celebrate Valentine's Festival together" Miu said.
"Ella's.. According to the myth, you can believe it or not - if there are lovers in Pretoria and follow the Valentine Festival there then they will never be separated. My mom and dad were there too. They meet on the train The Blue Train, they fall in love with each other. They never forget each other's beautiful story in Pretoria, in the slightest" Miu turned towards Train to tilt her body, she was very enthusiastic about Train's speech.
"That's the case, but the truth is that Pappaku hurt Mammaku and left us in Italy for the sake of the noble lady" Train turned to Miu and smiled.
"You should ask Pappamu. Maybe your father has his own reasons. We can't dive into the minds of adults because sometimes they can't dive into our minds. Pastor Gilberto said, We do not need to think about the problems of adults, our duty to do good, learn and focus on our dreams. The pastor said we should be grateful that many children cannot realize their dreams. Strengthen Ella's heart and listen to Pappamu's reasons. If it makes sense, you have to learn to accept reality, just like me" Train said.
Train looked into Miu's eyes deeply - deep, warm smile calmed Miu, there was strength flowing through Train's eyes and made Miu feel bewitched by Train's attitude so mature faced with problems. Train is well-educated by Leyka and the surrounding environment and the warmth of the Fernandez family.
"Like you?" tanya Miu was still fixated on staring at Train.
"Ella, I don't understand why I'm telling you this right away when we've only met twice. But I see you're a good girl and I like you. Actually I was strictly forbidden to tell my life to strangers. Mommy said life as Crown Princess is not easy, many bad people can be targeting the Royal Family" said Train smiled sweetly as he tilted his body and looked at Miu's eyes.
"Hmm-thank you for believing me" Miu said with a smile.
"After Mommy and Daddy met and took a ten-day vacation in Pretoria. Mommy and Daddy have been separated for eight years. They had their own reasons why they did not want to unite after they were together in Pretoria. But, they never forget each other even though they are very far apart" said Train made Miu fixated with the sweet story.
"Then?" Miu asks Train to continue the story because Miu is again bewitched by Train's narration.
"Honestly, I just met my Daddy not too long ago, Daddy never knew that Mommy gave birth to me. My dad just found out. All this time I've been asking where my Daddy and Mommy have always said that Daddy was on that train and wouldn't come down. I saved up a lot of money to find my Daddy, I never fucked Ella. I wanted to get on that train, to get my Daddy off and tell him that there was me, his son" Train said, leaving Miu stunned.
"Train, i.. Ah, you made my eyes grievous.. I can't believe you're gonna do it. I am so excited about your story. You live without a father's affection" Miu said, tilting her body and facing Train. But Miuccia occasionally hid her reddish eyes by always looking at the koi fish, her eyelashes looked wet. Train saw that and smiled knots
"Of course when I'm 16 years old, my plan was to find it. Believe it or not, this myth exists. They don't forget each other even though my Mommy has a boyfriend. Name's Damian. He also lived in the tenth floor Golden Apartment. They eventually broke up because it turned out that Mommy and Daddy had married in Pretoria without their knowledge. While attending the Valentine festival, they thought they were attending a regular Valentine's Festival, but it turns out they were following the biggest mass wedding in Pretoria-
"Wow Train, that's awesome! And finally your Mommy and Daddy are together, that's so sweet. I'm so happy to hear that. Ihss, you can make me sad and you can make me happy then. You deserve to be a storyteller" exclaimed Miu chuckling, cutting Train's story.
"Si was so sweet - After my long wait that I felt tired and wanted to give up, God finally granted all my prayers even gave me a bonus. God will give me a sister and now it's still in Mommy's stomach. He is still as big as almonds" Train said while lifting almonds and then devouring them, Miu chuckled and grabbed almonds in her lunch box and then also devoured them.
"Do you believe in a prayer, Ella?" ask Train while eating the almonds again.
"Hmmpht, a prayer? Of course I believe, even though God has not granted it. My prayers are very complicated, which is why God has a hard time granting them. Maybe God had trouble finding Pappaku-I mean my birth Pappa" Train furrowed his brows and faced towards Miu.
"So it's your prayer to meet your biological Pappa? Wait--Didn't you say that your Papp is in Barcelona?" ask Train.
"Train will you promise to be my best friend? Good thing about my life story, will you accept and still want to be friends with me?" miu said making Train gasp, because Miu had stretched her little finger towards him.
"Ella
"Will Train?" Ella actually stood up until the koi fish that swarmed were seen chasing here and there. Trainpun also stood up.
"Ella - Elara Miuccia.. No matter what happens, you'll still be my best friend! I promise! When we grow up, I'll ask you out! Watching movies, buying popcorn and eating ice cream, I'll visit you in Italy, we'll celebrate the art festival together!" exclaim Train linked his little finger and spoke with great emphasis. His adrenaline peaked but he held him back, Train was so excited that he made Miu laugh.
"Remember your promise Train" Miu said again.
"In front of the koi fish I promise, Ella. You know the character of koi fish is always crowded and friendly. They give up and share. They are symbols of love and friendship, in which there is luck, prosperity, togetherness and loyalty" said Train made Miu develop her smile, she more strongly linked her little finger.
"You're a very good Train, you know koi fish!" exclaimed Miu cheerfully.
"Mister Takeshi, my neighbor who told me about it, when - when will I introduce him to you" Train said, leaving Miu stunned. They parsed the little finger link together then they sat back down.
"Ehm, Ella-Can I touch your hair?" ask Train blushingly.
"May, usually I don't allow people to touch my hair, let alone my Pappaku. But I see you are a good person and also handsome" Miu said with a giggle as she closed her mouth. Train smiled at him and then he slowly touched the long golden hair and played it, twisted and wrapped around his index finger and then rolled it up to tangle.
"I was forbidden to also tell my identity by my Mammu. Because Mamma was afraid that the noble lady would hurt me, even though I didn't believe it completely. Isn't that noble lady kind-hearted like in a fairy tale? But Mammaku always said not all noble women are good" Miu said as she wiped her mouth after finishing her almonds.
"Your mom has a point" Train said with logical thinking, with her fingers still playing the tips of Miu's hair.
"From the baby I don't have Pappa's bladder, I was raised two Pappa Baptists. They love me so much, they're so funny and fight a lot because of me. My mom loved one of them, but I don't know about Pappa. He's always working nonstop, he only promised me that he would marry Mamma after the Russian project. But Pappa just left and chose to marry a noble woman" Miu said again showing her grim face.
"I'm sorry, Ella. Can I give you some advice?" train asked while patting Miu's hand and then playing Miu's hair back.
"What's that?" Miu replied.
"It seems like something is odd about their story, why don't you investigate it? But you have to turn around a little bit" Train said, leaving Miu confused.
"Run - turn?" Miu furrowed her brows.
"Adults are so complicated, Ella. You should ask your Papamu but not directly. You have to turn around a little bit until everything just unfolds. Your questions should turn around so they don't cover it up. All this time I was so and all unfolded by itself" said Train made Miu mangosteen.
"I understand-Hmmpht, who told you the beauty of Pretoria, Train?" asked Miu while sighing long.
"Mommy-from the age of five, I asked Mommy to tell me stories, over and over again, over and over again until I never got bored. Then what about you?" ask Train back.
"My mom, Pappa always told me about it before going to bed on the weekends. Sometimes I see my eyes reddened, sometimes he tells me with love and sometimes I see sadness in his eyes. You know adults sometimes difficult to translate his attitude, Pappa always reasoned, his eyes were driven by dust" said Miu smiled thinly.
"Only weekends?" Train scrunched his eyebrows.
"I don't live in a house with Pappa, I only live with Mamma and my Grandma but my Grandma is like a witch. But he died a year ago. Pappaku in Rome and I in Labaro, a hidden city in the city" Miu said.
"Ehm, Grandma magic?" Train narrowed his eyes by probing.
"Anything is so evil. Grandma always spent money on gambling and was always angry - angry, sometimes stealing my savings" complained Miu with her grim look again.
"If Pappamu tells of the beauty of Pretoria why not unite with your Mammu?" train asked increasingly curious, he sighed deeply and threw his gaze towards the crowd of koi fish.
"Ckk, the story is very long Train. We need more time. Hmmpht- Whereas in Pretoria they once tied a promise in a Barn" Miu said making Train again tilt his head to look at Miu by frowning her forehead.
"Barn's?" ask Train.
"Si, Barn's vineyard" Miu replied, making Train interested because Mommy and Daddy, too, have a story there.
"Barn the vineyard?" ask Train again.
"The Si--barn is a greenhouse for partying" Miu said, staring at the wind-blown leaves.
"That sparkles like a diamond at night?" train asked with a furrow of his brows.
"Si was like a diamond, it was moon-like
"A full moon?" Train cut off Miu's words with a question, Train further furrowed his brows. The story is really the same, thought Train more and more interested in their conversation.
"Si, they fuck in the vineyard--
"And the chieftain is after him?" tanya Train cut off Miu's words again which seemed to tell the story of Mommy and Daddy, Train's heart became pounding - pounding hearing Miu's words.
"Hahaha-- Si, how do you know?" tanya Miu made Train let go of her hand which played Miu's hair.
"My mom is having a birthday!" miu's answer alternately quickly cut Train's question. They were silent and looked at each other. They were fixated and thought to see the similarities of a story, but all seemed deadlocked.
"When did that happen, Ella?" tanya Train was increasingly convinced the story was the same.
"About eight years ago - Miu and Train answered him with a lip gesture because the observant Train could guess Miu's answer, he tried to equate it - eight years ago" gumam Train answered his own question. His heart was pounding even more - the thump was even pounding.
How can the story be the same? How'this? inner Train.
Ohh No, how did Train know? Is she psychic? inner Miu.
"Hey Carino! What are you doing here?" asked one with his distinctive voice calling for Train. They looked simultaneously towards the source of the sound.
"Mother Manuella! Where are you going?!" exclaiming Train, the arrival of Manuella disperse the debate that came to him. Manuella was about to head to the car park and she used to pass the Daycare canteen which had a garden and decorated with koi fish ponds.
"Mom's going to work out of the office, I'm going to review the building for rent-it looks like you have a new friend" manuella said as she stroked Train's cheek after arriving behind a garden chair overlooking the koi fish pond.
Manuella's eyes were fixed on the little girl with golden hair that was beautiful until it reached her waist, the bluish ash eyes were glowing with the arches of her petals that widened until they looked round. The little girl who smiled at him, perfectly curved showing her natural reddened lips and both cheeks that met with pink looked adorable.
Manuella furrowed her brows, as she felt familiar with that face. Si, Manuella had seen a photo of Miu being sent from Italy while Valentino was in Barcelona. Leyka once sent someone a photo together with Miu and Valentino. Unlike the photo that Leyka received eight years ago when Miu was a baby but the photo was a photo of Miu who was the same age as Train. Leyka refused Valentino's love to get back together, due to Miu's presence. But Train made a three-month agreement that made him forget the photos in his hands and stored neatly.
"Mother meet my new best friend named Elara Miuccia - I call her Ella and Ella introduce this my Godmother, Mother Manuella! She was my Mommy's best friend from Senior high school to College in Palma" Train exclaimed, making Ella stand up and extend her hand.
Her eyes were grey blue, radiated full of innocence, Miu looked sweet and adorable. Manuella was glued and widened her eyes, her heart pounding at the sight of that beautiful and petite face standing by Train's side.
"Ciao (hello) the Baptist Mother Train. My name is Elara Miuccia, everyone calls me Miu- um, except Train. I'm from Italy, I just arrived in Barcelona, I live in Golden District, it's nice to get to know you" Miu said, chuckling.
"She's the Angelita that Pedro told me about, Mom!" continue Train.
The smile on her face expanded so sweetly. But Manuella's chest rumbled, her blood flow flowing quickly, Manuella was very surprised by the presence of Miu who is very familiar even through a photo.
Ohhh Shitt! Dia.. Dia.. He's the one in the picture.. She's Rebecca Pallazo's daughter.. No. gabe.. No. gabe.. This is impossible.. What was done in Barcelona and why Train knew him.. New friend? Where Train knows him.. Ohh Shitt's.. Leyka should know about this.. I'll call him right away..
"Momuuu! Uhsss! What kind of hands are you!" train's exclamation shook Manuella's dreamy hand to welcome Miu's hand. Manuella greeted him and quickly disentangled him.
"Ah.. Ja.. Jaa.. Call me Tia Manuella.. Ummm.. Ehh.. Se. it's good to see you.. Mi..Miu's. L'm.. I'm going first. Train, don't forget Diego's father will take you to Esperanza school you have drama class this afternoon" Manuella said with her tongue trembling, until Train caught something very awkward.
At the same time the entrance bell rang again, they cleaned up their provisions and prepared to take lessons in the second session. But curiosity hit Train's mind, his feelings began to be uncomfortable when he saw Manuella nervous.
"Ella, you go first. I want to talk to my mother" Train said, making Manuella give a deep sigh.
"Alright Train. Actually there's still something I haven't told you all about. But then when we meet again. I'm in Daycare until the afternoon. You're going to drama class? um--I thought we were going to have lunch together. Tio Pedro will bring me lunch" Miu said as he pulled the zipper of his bag to close after he put his box in and took two lollipops.
"Tomorrow we will meet again, I will see you or we will meet here every hour of rest" Train said, wearing a bag on his back.
"This train is for you and another for Tia Manuella. Pappa said, if there are good people I meet then I should repay them with kindness and give this lollipop. This lollipop is a symbol of friendship and kindness-Ehm, well. Adios Tia Manuella! Adios Train's! Ihss, Train you're making my hair tangle!" said Miu as she flicked her hair back.
"Gracians. Nice to meet you, Adios Miu" said Manuella still staring fixed Miu and received a lollipop that stretched out towards her. Manuella was impressed until she was amazed at the sweet attitude of Miu.
Meet up? Shouldn't it be 'happy to meet you' when you first meet.. Mother Language is not for people who have met before. Inner Train
"Ahahaha-- Perdonami (pardon me) and Grazie (thank you) for this lollipop. I'm going to put it in my treasure box" Train said in Italian and then he received a lollipop from Miu.
"If Train makes your hair tangle, that means he likes you a lot because Train will only play the hair of people close to him - you're very familiar, where do you get acquainted?" asked Manuella to undo her intention to leave, she wondered why Miu was so familiar with her godson.
"Ella go--Uhss! You can't ask too many questions! No, you can't!" train exclaimed in two directions, he spread out his hands and intended to block Manuella, even though Manuella did not move to approach Miu and it made Miu chuckle at Train's attitude.
"Bad kid, I'm just asking the usual thing!" manuella said as she pinched Train's sweet nose. There is a sense of happiness in Miu's heart, seeing Train's closeness with Manuella.
"No No No Mother! Don't embarrass me!" exciting Train while pulling Manuella's hand to leave.
"Ahahaha-We met at the airport a few weeks ago" Miu said in response to Manuella's question. Miu's laughter made Manuella smile, Miu seemed to transmit cheer when she saw it.
"At the airport?" Manuella looked at Train who was grumbling towards her, Miu increasingly chuckled at Train. Her face became funny and Miu was happy to see it.
"Si, my Mammu and I just arrived in Barcelona and Train kindly greeted me, Alright, I go to class first! Aadioooss!" miu replied as she waved her hand and ran. Train returned the wave of Miu's hand, his eyes blinked at the sight of Miu's hair that was smeared with a whimper and sparkling golden. Train's eyes didn't blink looking at him. While Manuella was staring at the departure of Miu who was running away.
"A few weeks ago that means you're going to the '
"The Palma de Mallorca!" cut Train quickly answered Manuella who had not finished her words.
"You're right. So the moment of your meeting" Manuella said still staring at Miu's small steps running around.
"Mother?- She's so pretty, right?" tanya Train turned towards Manuella who was standing next to him with a pushy look, still looking at Miu who had almost disappeared from her sight.
"Si, and very adorable, she is very gentle and seems like a good child" Manuella said with bitterness and admitted it.
"He's from Italy and his eyes are also very beautiful, his hair is so charming that I want to roll him on and on! Uhs!" train said with anxiety, Manuella never looked at him and Train increasingly asked in his mind.
"Si, she has beautiful eyeballs and those colors.. The eye color is like-
"Mine!" trian deliberately broke Manuella's daydream, I don't know what was on her Baptist Mother's mind, Train thought.
"Si-like yours" said Manuella as if holding something stuck in her throat.
"I met her in the airport toilet, she sat down and cried at that moment. I think she's lost, apparently her mom's in the toilet, too bad I didn't meet her. He was just sad because his father left him. Ella is looking for her Papanya because a noblewoman took her Papanya. Um, Papanya's having an affair. Guess what, I think you already know her. Don't you?" Manuella was jolted by Train's words that immediately shot her with a question that led to Miu's identity. Manuella seemed to be trapped with the trite Train's spinning base. And that's his way of judging adults to know his way of thinking.
"Ehh. Um.. That's.. Ummm.. Train, come to your class. Mom has to work. Meet Diego's dad at the usual place. Adios Carino!" manuella said while kissing Train's forehead and stroking his hair. Train's accusation with questions and statements that ended up trapping him, made Manuella nervous.
"Adios (bye) Mom! Take care (heart of heart)!" train said in English, Manuella turned her head for a moment and just smiled, it was not Manuella as usual, Train thought.
Mother you're hiding something.. I know, I know.. I already feel that Miu's story and her parents' story are very awkward.. It's freaky.. I should ask Mommy.. Or the.. It must have something to do with Daddy and.. His anger lately.. Daddy, what's wrong with you? Do you know Ella?. Train
Val what are you doing? Why is your daughter in Barcelona? And he's looking for you.. Please don't you ever break Leyka's heart a second time. Manuellae
