Mi Náufrago

Mi Naufrago

Luna's POV:

"I told you earlier if you wanted to use the restroom and you said no. Now you do and we're missing the big announcement." I was mad at Victor as we were waiting in line to use the ladies room.

"But I didn't want to go then. Now I do." He almost cried as he made a little dance as he tried to hold it in.

"You'll make it quick." I said and the line moved and we were up next. It didn't take long for someone to get out so we could go in.

"Mommy?" Victor called.

"What is it?" I replied as I helped him unbutton his pants.

"I think I want to do #2." I looked at him and just gave him my Are You Serious face.

"Oh Victor. Come on. Let's do it quick then." I said and sat him in the toilet.

'You know. I can't believe they have decided to do all this just to show us a new person that's never going to replace Piero.'

'I know right? They're so desperate to get money out from them now. Or that's what I heard some of the investors say.'

I couldn't believe what I was hearing. They were here for what exactly? I just sighed and notices Victor was looking at me. I shushed him so he wouldn't say anything and he nodded in response.

"Are you almost finished baby?" I asked in a high pitched voice.

"Almost! I think there's more poop in my belly." I wanted to laugh so hard when Victor said that and heard the two ladies say Ew! and left the restroom.

"Give me a high five." I said and he did. "Come on, let's go back to auditorium and finish seeing Nazio."

He nodded and I handed him some paper. Quickly I took him over to wash his hands and dried them. Once we got out, some people were leaving the venue.

"Is it over?" Victor asked me. I shrug my shoulders and walked back inside the venue.

The curtain was closed and you could still hear the musicians fidgeting their instruments. I then looked around and saw many expressions in the audience. Some girls were crying, some just sat there as if they were in complete shock, while others were trying to breathe and fanned themselves with the flyers we got at the beginning.

"Mommy... What's going on? We even missed the ending." Victor asked as I tried pushing him to the front of me so I could walk behind them.

"I don't know sweetheart. Just stay close to me okay?" I said until we reached our seats. There Eleonora was crying just like Maria, Gaetano tried consoling his wife while Francis just sat there all pale as if he had seen a ghost.

"What is going here? What happened to the show?" I began asking. "Francis! Snap out of it!" I shook him out of his mind.

"Huh? What?" He asked.

"Where is Maxim and Perla? Why is your mom and Maria crying?" I asked him, my hands still on his shoulders.

"They're here no?" He asked and tried pointing to their empty seats.

"Francis..." I called him and he looked at me straight in the eyes. "What happened?"

"I need to get you backstage." He simply said. He got up and began dragging me through the empty front seats and through the exclusive backstage doors.

"Francis wait! Stop dragging me here. Where... Where's Victor?" I asked as he wasn't following us.

"Huh? Wasn't he behind you?" He asked.
