As the maid took the tea away, she also left the room.
She calmed down. Looking at the cloth on the table, Angelo let out a sigh.
When the great-grandson was here a few days ago, there was always the laughter of old people and children in this room, very lively.
Now that he is gone, the place has become deserted,
like the same countless lonely days of the past.
"Angelo you are old, after all. You used to spend these days alone. Now it's back to the same as before, why didn't you get used to it?"
Once a person was warm, he could not really adjust to the cold.
The old man sighed again and again. The two servants guarding the door looked at each other, but did not dare to say a word, lest Angelo hear them and get angry. Once like that, they would be punished . .
Yet at that moment, anyone with a mind knew better than to disturb him.
He did not know how long he had been sitting. Angelo also felt some pain in his waist.
-When you get old, you are really old....
The old man wanted to get up, but at that moment he suddenly heard a childish voice.
Great-grandfather!
Angelo's body trembled and he felt like he was hallucinating, otherwise.... how could he hear that beautiful child's voice?
This, this must be an illusion!
He continued to get up, but there was a sound of footsteps running toward him behind him.
The sound of footsteps, from far to near, soon came behind him, then stopped, still exhaling the childlike breath of the child.
Great-grandfather, I'm back!
The old man jerked in a good moment and abruptly turned his head after being stunned for a few seconds.
With a glance he saw Manuel in front of him.
At that moment, Angelo could not believe his eyes. Since he must have boarded the plane with his parents to fly home, how could Manuel appear here?
The two looked at each other for a few seconds.
Suddenly the old man ignored the young boy and walked out.
-Domenico! Domenico!
He was hallucinating. I had to get Domenico to get him a doctor.
At first Manuel thought his great-grandfather would be very happy to see him. But to his surprise he ignored him. The little boy's head twitched slightly.
"Was great-grandfather angry when he saw me come back?"
Thinking this, this little boy quickly followed in the old man's footsteps.
Great-grandfather, are you angry with me? But I want to stay with you.
Bang!
The child's head hit Angelo's leg and stopped, and Domenico, who had been called earlier, also entered at this moment and said with a smile: -Mr. Angelo.
-What, what's wrong?" Angelo found his voice a little shaky, "Did everyone get on the plane when you said goodbye?"
-Yes,‖ Domenico nodded, -They all boarded.
Hearing this, Angelo breathed a sigh of relief. -Good."
But at the same time, the light in his eyes dimmed. In fact, it was all his own illusion. Since Domenico had sent everyone to the plane, how could he see Manuel coming back?
Moreover, even though he had recently been shot in the leg, Angelo still thought it was his illusion again.
-Sir. -Domenico coughed slightly as if he wanted to say something, but he stopped him.
