Can’t meet up?
Mordecai was instantly anxious.
He still wanted Amad to be able to cheer up!
Those little hands flew up and poked at the cell phone screen, sending messages to each other.
Mordecai: Can’t it be just half an hour? It’s really a special, special, important matter that needs to be talked about face to face!
Mordecai: Aunty, if I don’t talk to you about this, Amad might be sad and upset for a long time.
After sending these two text messages, Mordecai then stared at the screen dead on, waiting for a reply.
Ten minutes passed, fifteen minutes passed.
Half an hour passed.
The text messages were like stones sinking into the sea, there was no reply at all.
“Young Master Momo, what have you been staying in your room for, it’s time for dinner, THE OLD Mrs. Navarro is calling you!” The maid said as she knocked on the door.
Mordecai hurriedly deleted all the text messages from his phone watch before they were discovered, before going downstairs to eat.
In order to celebrate Mordecai’s rapid progress and achievement in learning the piano today, the old Mrs. Navarro purposely asked the kitchen to make a table full of dishes that Mordecai loved to eat.
When the table was served, she beckoned with a smile and a gentle voice, “Momo, grandma knew you’d be good at this, so practice hard and I’m sure you’ll be able to play the Damon Variations in the near future.”
Damon Variations, is a tune with a very high difficulty coefficient, the tune is soothing in the front, and then suddenly begins to change into a rapid and exciting, when people are completely immersed in it, the tune then gradually returns to calm, as if the most inconspicuous Damon in the sky, and nothing uncommon has ever happened in general.
If one could play this piece, then the piano would be considered a successful learning experience.
It’s just that–
Mordecai looked at the old Mrs. Navarro with a puzzled face, “Grandma, I know that the Damon Variation is a symbol of success in challenging the piano, but there are actually many other pieces that can be equally symbolic.
Why do you always emphasize the Damon Variations, as if you let me learn piano just so I can play the Damon Variations?”
The old Mrs. Navarro’s face froze with a smile as she sniffed.
Immediately, she sighed lightly and spoke, “Of course grandma didn’t mean that, but there is such a person, right, who very much wants you to play this piece, and grandma is just expressing this wish for her!”
“Who is this person?” Mordecai asked.
The old Mrs. Navarro avoided answering and raised her hand to rub Mordecai’s head, “I’ll tell you later, eat.”
Mordecai let out a cry, and obediently buried his head to eat.
But the old Mrs. Navarro got up and stood up, going upstairs.
“THE OLD Mrs. Navarro, you haven’t eaten a bite of your supper!” The maid shouted behind her in a hurry.
the old Mrs. Navarro didn’t even look back, directly waved her hand, “No, I don’t eat, I don’t have much of an appetite today, you guys take care of Mordecai and eat more.”
Looking at the old Mrs. Navarro’s back, Mordecai’s heart was terrified.
In a very low voice, he asked the maid next to him, “Did I make Grandma angry?”
“No, Mr. Momo,” the maid denied, “the old Mrs. Navarro was just thinking of some past events, so she was in a bad mood, it has nothing to do with Mr. Momo.”
Some past events?
Mordecai asked, but the maid’s mouth seemed to be sealed, refusing to say anything.
Helpless, Mordecai could only eat first.
After the meal, he went to the kitchen and brought a bowl of bird’s nest, specially put double honey, and carried it upstairs to find the old Mrs. Navarro.
If you are too sad to eat when you think of the past, it means that the memories are bitter.
If you can’t eat when you think of the past, it means that your memories are bitter, so you can eat very sweet bird’s nest to cheer up!
