Frederick And Geraldine (Part 19)



(Chiara, Francesca, Rosa, and Pedra remained on the beach.)



Chiara and Pedra decided to take a look along
The coast to search for some food; Francesca and Rosa carried
The boat across the beach to hide it, 'How can you be so strong? ''
Asked Rosa; ''I listened to Chiara when I got married.




We depleted a fortune and Lucca was very rich.''
''So, this strength of yours comes from your tristesse, '' replied Rosa.
''My inner emptiness became only affection, '' 'She's a witch, ''
'She's a good soul, but inside her, she keeps some thorns of mimosa.''




They had to undergo that difficult time and to
Organize their lunch; Rosa stopped to sip some drops of water
From the canteen she carried, '' it's entirely up to you
To leave him now, ' ''My father is ill; I'm his unique daughter.''




They were tired after the grim events of the previous
Hours; meanwhile, Chiara and Pedra were sifting through the salty
Air of the beach; Chiara said, '' I don't trust Fargo, he's devious.''
''We have no other chance, '' replied Pedra. ''His logic is faulty, ''




Continued Chiara, ''they should remain here with us.''
Pedra stayed for a few minutes being caught by the sparkle
Of the broken waves; she said, ''we have something to discuss.
Don't you think that your ideas are too matriarchal? ''





They enjoyed the salty stink of the seaweeds and the clicking
Of the living shells that they had tossed together for the meal.
While eating, they cut off the mollusks from their sticking
Shells; dozens of gulls were wheeling over the waves. ''Pleasant peal, ''




Said Francesca, '' the chance of meeting another person while
Staying here is very slim.'' '' I really grasp the scale of our
Surroundings, '' said Chiara while giving her seaweeds with a smile.
Rosa said, '' eat some kumquats, figs, and pears; you need power.''



(Rosa brought some fruits to complete the meal.)
