Alex Red and The Seventh Element

Chap. 3: The mushky's birthday

After completely touring that place, he concluded that he had never seen more beautiful abode. That place was crowded in numerous corridors and locations with excessive decorations, placed with great delicacy; from paintings by great painters, to huge and bright chandeliers on the ceiling, furniture so finely made, luxurious and full of small details. These, together with other types of objects, pretended to be sculpted by gods, the walls were softened in a cyan that enveloped all the showy rooms, not the mortifying coloring of their old home.

However, somehow the most amazing, is like that cyan, more furniture, ornaments and others combined in such a way that it resembled a paradise of perfection. The only thing that shared both sites is that they were equally lacking in technology and ... that dining room table, the most sublime dining room you could imagine, which resided overflowing with delicacies, lemon candy candies, meat pies, pieces of smoked ham cut uniformly, etc ... organized on their plates and utensils faultlessly placed.

-We did not have to bother, we brought our own food. - Rosanna says that she also marveled at the sight.

- That, I do not even know what they call that food, please. - Says that stranger again.

-But ...- Rosanna says brokenly.

-If it took me by surprise too, the storefronter, practically arrived almost at the same time as you, but a little before. Linda will be an exemplary cook, but those canned foods cooked in a hurry, vah, disgusting. In addition, today we celebrate twice. - Says the strange voice with a grimace unthinkable in his face.

-Double celebration ... uh ... I do not know why you say it ...- Linda says hesitantly.

-You'll see ...- The strange man points out, which Alex guessed that in spite of his old age it must be when young someone very showy. If that translucent-eyed face had aged, he could not imagine it in his 20s, however, you could tell he was still in very good shape.

-We can not accept such hospitality, it would to be abuse. - Linda continue. Alex literally thought ... "a little", please, that strawberry ice cream with chocolates seems so ..." and licked his lips.

-For my grand nephew everything, had centuries I wanted to know him, also missed them so much and now more than ...- Said the stranger.

At present he reflected that, until that moment he enjoyed an outstanding birthday, even so early in the morning, first, an amazing trip preceded by something ... "better not to remember", he thinks ..., second that resplendent house and third I was setting a serious record of meeting relatives. The assumptions that his mother was the only one in the world could not be more wrong, but how, then they had not been the only survivors ......., that could mean that maybe his father too .....

-Casimir, I understand you, but do not make us fall in love, Alex must also be exhausted, he should not have prepared something like that so early, for Aisha, it's less than 7 in the morning. - Rosanna says with a slightly challenging tone. "It does not matter" thinking about it, I was not tired at all ... Alex thought.

-If I know - Laugh - do not worry rest if you want, nothing is going to spoil. - Casimir says laughing again.

-If I perceive the energy field around the food, it is untenable that it could be spoiled. But be honest, since when you have prepared?, I do not know, I perceive that ...- Linda says somewhat withdrawn.

-For some years, maybe 15, or 16, the preparation took me more than a month. I knew that one day they would return, I promised that I would never touch a bite, they were always in my mind, even though we could not communicate. I prepare my little things, clear, and well I have to take care of ... it does not matter, but of that banquet nothing. - Casimir says something self-absorbed. Obviously, the shrimp cocktail was no longer so appetizing for Alex. "16 years ago...."
