THE FORGOTTEN LOVE On The Train
The Gift
Train walked down the sidewalk with a bag on his back, his hands clutching a backpack rope that was coiled around his shoulders. He kicked a small pebble along the road with his head down, his mouth locked. Pedro was walking behind him.
"Hey son of Toro! Why your face?" ask Pedro and Train still with his les face.
"It's okay" he replied briefly.
"Are you fighting again?" pedro could guess.
"Hmm" he replied lazily.
"They're bothering you again?"
"Si (Yes)" Pedro let out a long sigh and walked ahead of Train then he crouched down.
"Let's ride!"
"No Pedro"
"Come quickly! You've been on a long road, Train!" and Trainpun went up to Pedro's back, he then wrapped his hands around Pedro's neck.
"Pedro, since your father's gone, have you missed him?" train's question made Pedro smile bitterly, he remembered his father had left him with his mother and also his two younger siblings. His mother was a close relative of Dolores. His father died when Pedro graduated from school so he did not take university and chose to work.
"Of course I miss him-Why are you asking?"
"You're lucky Pedro. You still know your father" Train said, making Pedro sigh long, he couldn't do anything to help Train when talking about his Daddy.
"You're lucky, Train. Your daddy's alive"
"Don't it, just like nothing? I don't know him and I can't see him. You've seen your father. You must have been carried like me now! And I never! Wouldn't it be better if I thought it was nothing, he would never get off that car and look for me" Train said with a single breath.
"Train-
"Isn't it the same as your father? Your father won't be looking for you, will he?" Pedro chuckled at Train's way of thinking despite the child's pity, Pedro was sad to hear it.
"My father is dead how to find me, there's just this - Pedro still chuckles, but he has to switch the conversation --So did you beat up the kid who was bothering you?"
"I hit him, kicked him and grabbed him" Train said languidly.
"Wahh you're great! They deserve it. Don't let them bully you!" pedro said by speeding up his pace.
"They've always insulted me, insulted my Daddy and today insulted my Mommy-they say my Mommy is a liar. Do you think my Mommy's a liar, Pedro?" ask Train by putting his chin on Pedro's shoulder. They walked down the road to Double P, and passed District after District along with other pedestrians.
"Of course not. You have to trust your Mommy" said Pedro, turning to Train.
"Do you know anything about my Daddy? Aah-how could you possibly know?" Train asked but he hurriedly answered it himself, his tone sounded desperate, Train let out a long sigh.
"Train, don't hurt your Mommy by continuing to expect your Daddy and ask him. Do you think Mommy wasn't hurt?"
"Open?" murmuring close to Pedro's ear, he pondered Pedro's speech. Train a sensitive child like Leyka, a child who is understanding and likes to keep everything alone. He understood the words of Pedro. Everything that made Leyka hurt because of her, would make Train feel guilty.
"Yes, your Mommy might be hurt by your question, but your Mommy is trying to smile and hide the wound. Can you understand, Train?" Pedro, on the other hand he understands how Leyka waited for the Italian 8 years ago, then hated him. But on the other hand he also understood Train's feelings. A fragile child who is always looking for the existence or figure that other children have, whereas he does not. Daddyh. Train searched for the figure after the environment affected him. Once he understood, after he grew bigger.
His friends, seeing his friends so close to their father, Train always dreamed of and had a desire to be like them. That's why Train always asks who and where his Daddy is.
"Si, Pedro-I'll never ask again" Train said by rubbing his watery nose. Just like Leyka, Trainpun pressed his wound. For a child of Train's age it was a quest due to curiosity that mastered it, but Train thought about how Leyka was injured, Train still felt a palpation in his mind.
"Train, sometimes that woman hides a wound, maybe your Daddy in the past hurt your Mommy a lot, won't your Daddy come down and look for your Mommy?"
"Si, Pedro" Train wiped his tear-soaked cheeks, then hugged Pedro's neck again. Real tight.
"We've reached Double P, Train. Wash your hands and eat then I'll take you home, we'll wait for your Mommy in the apartment and play a video game" Pedro said, lowering Train from his carrier.
"Si, Pedro" Trainpun walked to his favorite place, near the cashier and next to the glass wall where he could see the passersby on the sidewalk. A small table and a small chair provided by Leyka specifically for Train if he joined Leyka work while he was bored in the Apartment. Leyka always spent her time working in Double P, a certain jam Leyka would be there every day, even as an owner she did any work.
He went to the toilet, washed his hands and washed his face. He looked at his face in the mirror, his eyes were still red, his nose was still wet.
Mommy, are you hurt when I ask Daddy? Mommy... Lo siento (forgive me)..
Sayup Train overheard Pedro's conversation with someone, but he didn't care. Usually he will ask a lot and want to know a lot, but this time not. He became moody and uninspired. Train still wants to be alone. He was still looking in the mirror looking at his face. His mind wandered, not knowing what he was thinking at this moment.
(Chat of Pedro )

[Hoarding disorder is the behavior of hoarding unused items because the items are considered to be useful later in life, historic, and have sentimental value ].
...*...
Send each other food, wine, barbeque, even at Thanksgiving each District conducts their own events in their parks. Especially during the Festival, they would all take to the streets and get to know each other. The life of the common people, the real life that Leyka wanted, not the life of the nobleman that snared her neck. Hypocritical with sickening stale bases, Leyka likes just ordinary life, because it makes her more ALIVE.
"The train is making trouble again. The Headmaster reprimanded me after the meeting. Sorry to wait so long" Leyka said as soon as she entered Manuella's car, which 8 years ago was used to escape Palma. Diego took good care of the car so it was still comfortable to use.
"She must have fought again" Manuella said, glancing at the left-right rearview mirror and rear view mirror, then drove her car slowly.
"He's like Valentino the demon king! Pe*law! He could have reversed my words! I threatened to call the student's parents and Train asked to call his Daddy when I sent him to the counselling room! She said-I'm not her Mommy at school, I'm her teacher! Ohh Shit! The boy copied the paste of my words and made my head break!" Manuella laughed heartily at Leyka's story, which was very upset with the gesture of her hand moving around, as if angry.
"That's why I love Train. The boy was very smart" Manuella kept getting uprooted and increasingly upsetting Leyka.
"Thank you for the compliment! And from now on, keep your mouth on when there's a train. He forbid me to kiss on the lips he said it could make him have a sister! Shit!" Manuella was laughing at Leyka's story. His closeness to Train indeed exceeded his friendship with Leyka.
A Father and a Baptist Mother, a father or godmother of a child, is not just a name on a piece of paper. In mainland Europe and even Latin America they greatly glorify the title of Father and Baptist Mother for one's child, it is very proud. The role of Father and Baptist Mother is very large, they are obliged to love other people's children like their own children even more. Either his relatives, whether his brother or even his best friend, if someone is chosen then Father and Baptist Mother are responsible for the title.
They arrive at the Church where the last honors are done, but Leyka only remembers how Train was baptized at that time. As snow filled the church and how the holy water splashed, Train cried from his sleep. Leyka smiled bitterly remembering, standing in her arms holding Train without her husband just Manuella and Diego and the entire Fernandez family as well as her loving neighbors.
If YOU really exist and govern my life.. So make me and Train happy, Leyka the Atheist prayed.
The show was rolling and Leyka did not follow the event properly he was just daydreaming considering the time when he spent solitude in a state of pregnancy and childbirth without a husband, the last tribute for him was just a ritual. After the event was over they gave a deep condolence to the family Leyka knew.
"Mrs Lorena, we are so sorry for the passing of your mother, Lady Florence" Leyka said as she extended her hand and kissed her mother's age, dressed in black.
"Without Leyka? You coming?" lorena hugged Leyka later.
"I must have come to Miss Lorena, I'm straight from school and Manuella picked me up" Leyka said, unraveling her arms as Manuella alternately kissed and greeted Lorena.
"I'm sorry we're late" Manuella added.
"I'm so happy you guys came, even though we're different Districts but all the attention of residents from Miel District will be I remember the kindness" Lorena said and took Leyka and Manuella to sit down.
Florence and Lorena are the mother and daughter who lived for many years in the Miel District, precisely in the Casa De Miel Apartment on the 7th floor and it belongs to Pacho who bought it for Leyka, who is the one who is the only one who has ever lived in the city, they are the tenants. Before Leyka left Palma, Manuella asked Lady Florence and Lorena to move at Leyka's request, as Leyka would occupy her. And finally they live in the Queen District, which is flat with elderly residents. They are good friends to this day.
"Leyka before I got here, I stopped by your coffee shop" Florence said, grabbing Leyka's hand and holding it.
"To my coffee shop?" Leyka and Manuella looked at each other with her eyebrows furrowed.
"Yes Leyka, I gave someone a handover 8 years ago. A man looking for you in your apartment" Leyka rounded her eyes and looked back at each other with an enthusiastic-looking Manuella.
"8 years ago? A man?" and for whatever sake, Leyka was pounding, her knees were shaking. The feeling was not good, Leyka immediately paled, her palms began to sweat and her chest slowly tightened. Manuella, who knew how Leyka was, then rubbed her back.
"I beg your pardon my mother. You know, my mom's a freak. He has quite severe Hoarding Disorder and Alzheimer's disease. My mother collected anything even maple leaves that grew in Miel District. I returned the neighbor's stuff that my mother had stored, even Dolores' porslen plates. The guy came looking for you to leave a present, my mom thought it was a gift from her boyfriend, Alzheimer's made her forget. The gift was kept by my mother until she was gone" Lorena said in tears, as she remembered her mother, Florence.
His mother has Alzheimer's and acute Hoarding Disorder, the sufferer used to save anything, to fill his house. According to the survey, almost 10 million people suffer from the disease and the average sufferer is women.
"Where was I then?" Leyka asked with just* her fingers to strengthen her defense, it felt as if Leyka was drowning for a moment. Because his feelings are strong. Valentino's definitely COMING. Because only he knows the Casa de Miel Apartment other than Manuella and Diego.
"At that time you were still in Palma, we didn't even know you. When we moved in and you came in, I was sure my mom forgot and I thought my mom had given it to you, so I just forgot. You know, no one touches his stuff. My mother's Hoarding Disorder is so bad, Leyka. My mother always said that there were Italian men looking for her and giving her gifts. I think it's just my mother's madness. And I just realized it when we were cleaning up my mom's stuff three days ago. A lot of stuff she kept, our house was like shit and I found your prize" Leyka's eyes were glazed over and Lorena was still crying over her mother, Manuella grabbed a box of tissue not far from her and Lorena was the first to pick it up.
"How do you know that's for me, ma'am?" leyka asked as she picked up the tissue but she just squeezed it.
"The written provision for Leyka Paquito and the sender only mentions two letters, V.G-I realized that it was yours, which is why I delivered it directly to you before going to the Church. Turns out you don't exist. I put it on Pedro" Leyka's eyes were rounded, framed reddish and the eyes were pouring out a warm, clear circle, finally the tissue was working according to its function.
"That's.. That means there is Train there" said Leyka turned towards Manuella and he like giving a code to hurry away from the event.
"Leyka
"I'm fine Mrs Lorena, excuse me. I forgive your mother and thank you for the information" said Leyka again hugging Lorena and rising to her feet. Half-run he left the church for the car park. Manuell was saying goodbye and chasing Leyka who was so quickly disappeared.
Manuella found Leyka sitting beside her car door, she was crying and her weight was unable to support her, her knees were shaking with her chest rumbling, her head was getting heavier. He could not believe that Valentino had come to see him at Barcelona. Although he was waiting for him when the first snow fell in Barcelona, but Valentino came for him. The wound returned. The dagger had rusted there and was sinking deeper and deeper. It was very painful, hate like an infection that was spreading and aggravating his mood.
Leyka leaned her body against the door of the car that was still closed, her head lowered and her face sank on her knees that bent to reach her chest, her shoulders shaking in shock from her cries. Crying with silence, she wanted to scream but Leyka always couldn't.
"Leyka" Manuella sat in front of Leyka and touched her shoulder.
"He's coming! He's coming Manuella! He's looking for me! He's comin! What's he coming for! Had I been in Barcelona, had I not been deported, had my mother not kept me in Palma, I could have met her!- The law! He's coming!" Leyka was hysterical for a moment, spilling everything.
"Leyka
"Why did he come, Manuella?!- Leyka just gripped Manuella's arms and shook her shake with a loud shout -- For what did she come! Why did he come at such an inopportune time! You're wrong Manuella! He's comin! You're salaahhh!" Manuella hugged Leyka and grabbed her best friend, she closed her eyes and cried. Manuella remembers what she said 8 years ago. Words that always make him feel guilty, because the words Leyka fell and gave birth to Train on the first day of snow fell before Winter (winter).
Forget about that Leyka guy! He'll never come! Live well with this boy, and with me Diego! Forget the baji*ngan! You never meant anything to him because you're not who.. You're just a stranger to him! Forget that guy forever! I hate seeing you like this! He never thought you existed.. Then never assume BAJI*NGAN IT IS IN THIS WORLD.. Stop, wait.. You're driving me crazy..
"I was wrong and you were right, Leyka. But what's the point now? You have chosen to leave your mass. It was just a gift and meant nothing. Come on, wake up, don't be like this. What if Train finds out you're like this. You're gonna hurt him so much. And if the lady knows, she'll be cheering because you're crying again" Manuella said, making Leyka stop her crying, Manuella was right, she buried her past in the depths of her sea of hearts. But this news made his heart suddenly confused until he forgot the contents of a gift given Valentino. Leyka flinched then as Manuella mentioned the word gift.
What it's saying.. What gift did Valentino give me.. How 'bout.. Shits.. What if Train sees it..
"Gift?- Leyka unraveled the hug and rounded her eyes --Manuella, what is that gift?! Pedro... Trains.. Ohh Shit! What if the gift is opened Train! What if there's a picture of Valentino in it!" Leyka gripped Manuella's arm firmly without her noticing.
"Buckie! Shitt!! This could mess with Train's mind! Let's go!!" Manuell also helped Leyka stand up and they quickly entered the car and left the church yard.
It turns out you came by then, Val.. And YOU are called God.. I just prayed that I would be happy.. But YOU'RE really NOT THERE.. I almost trusted YOU.. Leyka the Atheist, wiped his tears violently. The arrival of the gift 8 years ago, it really makes him panic and crazy that makes Manuella in the fog to bring her car to Double P. The place where the gift is.
