The lunchroom is extremely crowded, and buzzing with all kinds of voices, talking in all different languages. We take a seat next to a blonde kid in a blue pressed suit. As we sit down, I notice that his eyes are a reddish color, and he bears a slight resemblance to Ludwig, but he is slightly smaller. As Ludwig sits, he nods his head towards the red-eyed guy.
"This is my brother, Gilbert." Gilbert smiles and nods at me, his face turning red. I stifle a small laugh and nod back. Ludwig looks at his brother with worry. "She is new here, so try not to be so..." As Ludwig struggles to find the right word to call his brother, Gilbert laughs.
"Try not to be myself, you mean?" he asks. "That's going to be hard. You shouldn't be so embarrassed of me, Luddy. We're family, you know."
Ludwig sits silently, picking at his bratwurst and sauerkraut. Felicano sits down suddenly, dropping his plate of spaghetti and marinara sauce onto the table, spilling nothing. He wears a large smile as he introduces himself.
"My name is Felicano. This is Ludwig, and his brother Gilbert. I'm Italian, they're both German, and Gilbert is albino." He adds a certain emphasis to the word 'albino', and Gilbert smiles. I'm not sure what to say, so I look down at my enchiladas with red sauce and refried beans. From across the table, Ludwig finally talks.
"Where are you from?" he asks. This question doesn't help my mood at all, because it immediately makes me think of my brother Antionio. When I look up, all I say is, "I used to live in Europe."
Ludwig must realize this is a touchy subject for me, because he just nods and goes back to eating.
Gilbert, unlike his brother, talks too much. He and Felicano are chatting about something in two different languages, German and Italian. Gilbert looks up at the clock as he talks, and stands up. I look too, and see that it's almost time to go.
Suddenly the bell rings and everyone starts to leave the lunchroom. Ludwig stands up, and I follow him out.
Hey, so if anyone know what (Spain) last name is, just let me know in a comment. I looked it up a few weeks ago, but I've slept since then 😳😅 Thanks peeps!! 😎
