𝟷𝟸 Years Later

𝚃he train drove over the bridge. Under it were a big sea view. I was sitting on one of the chairs, my head on the window and klabel headphones. Meanwhile I was listening to “City‘s of Stars” from Ryan Gosling&Emma Stone.

» Mum. Mum. Look over there. An elf «

» Groot don’t point the finger to someone «

The son looked at his mum nodded and stared at me. I still don’t know why they call me an elf. 𝚂𝚘𝚛𝚛𝚢 𝚜𝚖𝚊𝚕𝚕 𝚐𝚞𝚢, 𝙸'𝚖 𝚊 𝚑𝚞𝚖𝚊𝚗. Now the mother stared at me to.

» Sorry Ma’am but, do you have any problems or why are you and your son staring at me? «

» What do you think who you are?! Can’t we look out of the window?! Your not the only one in this train. So go if you have a problem labour experiment, or «

She looked at my neck, where my number stands.

» Old ma’am, why is everyone staring at me like I did something bad to them? «

» They’re not staring at you because you did something. They stare at you because you’re something special my dear. Let’s go out of the train, we still have to check after you, right? «

» Right «

I nodded. Old ma’am. Old ma’am is nice. 𝙽𝚒𝚌𝚎 𝚙𝚎𝚛𝚜𝚘𝚗. 𝚂𝚑𝚎 𝚘𝚕𝚍 𝚖𝚊'𝚊𝚖. I smiled. Smiling. I am happy.

» Ma’am’s is here everything fine or should I call the police? «

A conductor came.

» No sir. The girl over there harassed us «

» Sir, I think here is a misunderstanding— «

» There is no misunderstanding. Sir — «

The conductor raised his hand. And the mother stopped to talk. Then he looked at me.

» Ma’am follow with me «

I got nervous for a second. I stand up. The woman smiled mean and the little boy was completely irritated. I followed the conductor in the next wagon, it seems so, that no one was there. After closing the door, he put his hat down. And fox ears came out. He sighed.

» Musica listen. It’s already the eleventh time in this week, do you know how nerving it is? It’s always the same «

He looked at me. A smile. Sad. Happy. Tired. I put my head down.

» I’m sorry. I know, I should wear something, that people cannot see my ears. It’s just… «

» I understand you completely. It’s uncomfortable and nerving. And it hurts sometimes «

» Well you’re also working? «

I smiled. He chuckled. We both sat down. On chairs. He put his scarf of from his uniform.

» Big brother why are you putting that off? «

» You’ll see. Don’t move now «

He took off my headphones and took the scarf under my hair. He knotted it at the top of my head, so that my ears were carefully covered.

» You’re mean. Now give my headphones back «

» I’m not mean «

He gave my headphones back and we both sit a little while. Silence. Just the noise from the train.
