Chapter 247 - The Memories Of Yesterday, The Sorrows Of Today



"They are here!" Shouted Alfonso

He ran towards the leaves that were resting on a table and took a deep breath.

"Yeah, that\'s the smell, oh yeah" Said Alfonso.

Zeti and Artemis looked from the sides.

"Hey, Artemis"

"Yes?"

"Why is my lord acting like a pervert who just got his hands on a woman?"

"That\'s pretty rude you know?"

"You aren\'t denied it though"

"…" Artemis was speechless.

After some time, Alfonso finally took the leaves back to his home, of course, he, bitterly, left some behind for sell.

"Okay, now, let\'s go to Hygeia\'s office" Said Alfonso.

"Why?" Asked Artemis.

"She has the instruments that I need" Said Alfonso.

They both returned to the manor and went straight towards Hygeia\'s room.

"My lord?"

"Hello, Hygeia, do you mind if I use your kettle?"

"No, I don\'t mind but why?"

"Watch and enjoy" Said Alfonso.

Alfonso put the kettle and boiled some water. After a couple of minutes, he put the leaves on a cup and poured the water on the leaves, a few seconds later, a fragrant aroma spread in the room.

"This smell… its nice and relaxing" Said Hygeia.

"I know right? This is smell I was yearning for" Said Alfonso.

"I remember this smell; I think someone serve me this back in the Olympus" Said Artemis.

 Alfonso took the cup and sat in a chair nearby the window.

He crossed his leg and took a deep sip of the tea.

When the tea entered his mouth, distant memories came to his mind.

......…

"Ahh, nothing beats a tea in the morning" Said an old man with a white shirt and safari pants.

"Old man, you are so old and yet, you still came to this god forsaken place in Greece, just because we made a new discover that will change the annals of history" Said a man in a suit.

"Who are you calling an old man? I, Alfonso Theodor, has never being too old for an adventure, beside…"

"No one is waiting for me back at home"

"…" The man looked at Alfonso and made a small sigh.

"Old friend, it\'s not too late to make a family you know?"

"…" Alfonso didn\'t say anything and just smiled.

Both of them took a taxi towards the Acropolis Museum in Athena.

"Robert"

"What is it?"

"How is Marvin doing these days?"

"…" Robert looked at Alfonso.

"What?"

"He died one year ago"

"What!?" Alfonso was surprised.

"He died in a protest in Pekin"

*Thump*

Alfonso punched the door with rage.

"THAT IDIOT!" Said Alfonso.

"He was shot, I happen to call him and his wife answered me, she told me everything, I took a flight to China that day"

"And why didn\'t you call me!?" Said Alfonso.

"His wife insisted that I didn\'t, it seems that Marvin leave a small message for her, in case, that something happened to him, nobody shall inform you"

"…" Alfonso gripped his hands so hard that his nail encrusted in his hand.

"Old friend, Marvin was like this since the old days, he was so engrossed in his believes that he threw everything for them"

"To throw his live for just a stupid cause! He was always like this, he didn\'t though before he acted! He didn\'t though of the repercussions oh his acts! Goddamn it!"

Alfonso teared a little while his anger and sadness engulfed him.

Robert didn\'t say anything else and the rest of the journey only the sound of tears dropping could be heard.

......…

"Alfonso!"

"Ah" Alfonso suddenly woke up from his memories, when he noticed, Artemis and Hygeia were looking at him with concern.

"What is it?"

"My lord! Are you okay!?" Said Hygeia.

"Yeah, I am"

Hygeia turned to look at Artemis.

"Alfonso, why?"

"Why are you crying?" Said Artemis.

Alfonso was surprised, he touched his cheek and found that it was wet. Alfonso could only smile bitterly.

"No, it nothing" Said Alfonso while weeping his tears.

"It just that… the memories of yesterday" Said Alfonso while looking at the window.

"Are the sorrows of today"

......…

Alfonso was on his room, looking at the two moons, shining in the dark sky. At his side, a cup of warm tea was waiting for him.

"A penny for your thoughts?"

A voice interrupted his thoughts, he turned and saw an indescribable beautiful girl looking at him from the step door.

"Demeter?"

"Yo, it seems that someone cried like a little girl some hours ago" Said Demeter with a cheeky smile.

"Artemis…" Though Alfonso.

Demeter walked towards the desk of Alfonso and saw on it, she grabbed the cup of tea and smelled it.

"Nice smell, it seems that you finally got your hands in the tea that you much wanted" Said Demeter.

"Yeah" Said Alfonso.

"However, it seems that these little leaves are something more than your way to enjoy afternoons, right?" Said Demeter.

Alfonso smiled bitterly.

"As always, you are very sharp"

"Sometimes is a curse, sometimes is a gift" Said Demeter.

Demeter gave the cup of tea towards Alfonso, who looked at the brown surface without taking a sip.

"Memories" Said Demeter.

"At the very end, all we have are memories…. Wealth, love, knowledge nothing matters when the time comes for us to leave this world, the only thing that we can hold dearly are memories" Said Demeter.

Alfonso looked at her and then back to his cup of tea.

"The real question here is… would you live in your memories…"

"Or would treat them as what they are… memories" Asked Demeter

Alfonso took a small breath and didn\'t say anything.

For some time, the room was quiet, however, Demeter was smiling, her thoughts were a mystery.

"It seems that you are not only saying that to me" Said Alfonso with a smile.

"Oh? It seems that I am not the only one who is sharp" Said Demeter with a cheeky smile.

"I can be… sometimes"

Alfonso stood up and took out from his desk another cup and poured Demeter some tea.

"It seems that we both are alike in more ways than what we though" Said Alfonso.

"Haha" Demeter smiled and took the cup.

"In the worse way possible, however, yes, we are" Said Demeter.

"A toss" Said Alfonso.

"For the wounds that won\'t close" Added Demeter.

"And the sorrows that are to come" Said Alfonso.

Both took a deep sip of the cup of tea before leaving the cups on the desk. Demeter approached Alfonso and hugged him from his neck. Alfonso was surprised however, he felt warm inside and turned to look at Demeter.

"You are a cheater" Said Demeter with a smile.

"Not really, I just follow my heart" Said Alfonso.

"Even if its split in two?" Asked Demeter.

"It just happened"

"Cheating men should die"

"And cheating women?"

"Hmmm… I will think about it"

"Haha" Alfonso laughed.

"You laugh because you know it\'s impossible for me to cheat" Said Demeter with a pout.

"Oh? And why is that?"

"Idiot~"

Demeter approached and her lips were just a tiny bit away from Alfonso\'s.

"Because I am crazy about you"

Demeter smiled and kissed him, Alfonso closed his eyes and reciprocated the kiss.

"You taste like tea" Said Demeter.

"You as well" Said Alonso with a smile.

Both of them laughed a bit more before looking at the sky.

For some time, both forgot about their sorrows and just enjoyed the darkness of the night.
