Hello again….

Being away from technology made me feel much better. My back and thumb don't hurt as much, but I'll still try not to write very often. As everyone will know last Sunday was Father's Day (since it is the third week of June) for all those who have a great father who shows love and support, go with him and hug him, tell him how much you love him because not everyone is lucky of having a real father and if your mother or your grandfather and even your brother played the role of father, give him a hug because that person did what nobody dares to do

In my case, my mother was or rather is father and mother at the same time (like my maternal grandfather), she gave me good advice and always said: `` I love you, she is more my father than my real father (who, for true, I know but I don't see him as a hero) I know I said it late, but when managing the community that my husband and I created I stayed behind in some things

With nothing more to say, I let you read the chapter dear readers


WORKING WITH THE ENEMY PART 2


Both classes were ready to start, some young people were happy to practice the type of art they chose to learn, but others were nervous. For example, Pedro, since it was the first time he played the saxophone in public. Nico was a little surprised with Pedro's supposed talent, as he never thought that a boy like him would love music and dancing.

"The song is calm and slow, so take it easy in your practice" said Richard sitting at the piano "They are ready band"

"Done", all the music students answered with their instruments ready (except the guitarists) Nico had his piano ready since he was the only one in the class who practiced, Lila and some children were prepared with their violins and one of the children played the cello and one played the harp and drum

(The song is called "Piano" Raúl Di Blasio and Richard Clayderman interpret the appearance of Bebu Silvertti. So that you can listen to the part of the saxophone. The song is recorded on stage but they can be heard very well)

"Alright guys, I hope you like this kind of music" Richard starts playing his piano just like Nico starts the song

Hearing the sweet sounds of the keyboards, the dancers began to dance slowly with their partners.

"What good rhythm don't you think?" Jewel said while still dancing with Roberto

"Yes it is" replied the boy with blue eyes

"I hope the school dance is soon"

"Me too and much more if I go with my best friend" that word left Jewel blushing


(Nico and Richard continue playing)


"Hey, what's wrong with you because you get tense?" Eva asked, feeling Rafael's sweaty hands.

"Sorry, I think I'm not in the mood to dance today" Rafael lied

"Don't be nervous, let yourself be carried by the rhythm"

"That is something that I also say" commented Rafael

"I usually dance faster"

"Me too. Ammm ... Eva, right?"

"Yes, and you are Rafael because I have seen you all the time talking to the nerdy boy"

"You mean Blu, well, he's my best friend"

"Can I ask you something?"

"Than?"

"You're homosexual?"

"No, of course I'm not gay, not because I hang out with guys, that means I'm gay"

"Then you like girls"

"Yes, of course I am attracted to women mainly if they have a good rhythm"


(The sound of the violins, the harp and the cello are heard)


Eva and Rafael continued to dance slowly while looking each other in the eyes for the first time in their lives. Rafael was nervous to see a girl face to face, although he did not know Eva perfectly, he felt nervous with her.

Eva also felt in the same state that Rafael did not know him at all, he only made fun of him behind his back for his friend Jewel but it turned out that the Toucan was not a strange boy he was unique so he decided to let himself be carried by the dance with him long-billed boy

"You do very well young, you are all artists" Martha congratulated all the young "Now I change partners"

The exchange of couples was a little painful for Roberto, since he wanted to continue feeling Jewel's hand, it was also painful for Rafael and Eva, just because they did not show it as much.


Nico and Richard continued playing the piano since they had been practicing this song for a long time, they did not have to be nervous but Pedro was the only one of all who did not dare to play in the orchestra.

"When you are ready boy" Richard spoke to Pedro without stopping playing the piano

Although Pedro was still a little nervous, Nico showed him otherwise, he continued to play the piano very calmly, letting himself be carried by the rhythm. Nico realized the fear that Pedro had although they had fought; he decided to give the obese cardinal a little encouragement

"Come on Pedro it's just music you have to let yourself be carried by the rhythm" Nico encouraged Pedro

Pedro was surprised by what the canary said for the first time he was not angry with his words he was right if you love to do something you should not be afraid to demonstrate it you have to continue doing what you like the most

Unexpectedly Pedro plays the saxophone and lets himself be carried away by the rhythm of the orchestra


(Sound of saxophone)


The small but tempting sound made the song more romantic. Pedro's great performance surprised all the young people, including the teacher Martha, this little act made him understand that Pedro was more than an aggressive child.

"Wooo ..." said Martha with much amazement

"I can't believe it" Nico said inside her mind without stopping playing the piano amazed by Pedro's great talent


(Pedro continues playing his instrument and the others also)


The swashbuckling cardinal was carried away by the rhythm and began to walk close to Richard and Nico, who continued to play the piano. Pedro had a small rhythm inside that was demonstrated for the first time


(Pedro stops playing the saxophone and the others continue with the song)


"Maybe I misjudged him," Pedro said in his mind when he saw that Nico was still playing the piano.

"Maybe I misjudged him" Nico spoke in his mind when he saw what Pedro had just done

"It is not as clumsy as it seems"

"It is not as rude as I expected"

"I don't understand why it is different"

"I don't understand why it is different"


(Richard raises his wing indicating to the orchestra to increase the volume while still playing the piano)


The entire band saw the Emperor Penguin call for attention and prepared to give the last tone to this song just like Pedro who had been thrilled with the performance.


(Everyone plays a little louder again and some drums are heard)


That last tone was the most striking of all the dancers stopped dancing to see the last performance of the musicians all gave a loud applause for the great performance of Richard and his students Pedro could not believe that he had played in public all thanks to Richard and his apprentice Nico

"That was amazing" Nico said with a lot of emotion

"Yes, it was," answered Pedro in the same tone as Nico.

"You're not that bad playing the boy saxophone" Richard congratulated the cardinal

"I know how to play everything, I'm even good with rap" Pedro spoke with more confidence

"You are incredible" Martha spoke with a lot of emotion approaching Nico, Pedro and Richard "I knew there was something more in you young man" I congratulate Pedro

"Ammm ... thank you" the cardinal thanked with a bit of regret

"You and your friend will not have a low grade in my art class"

"Really?" Nico asked with a bit of excitement.

"Of course, if you two also make a good team"

"She is right, they are both very good with music" added Richard

"Thank you" thanked Nico and Pedro

"Very well, let's take a break," both teachers ordered.


Since they were two different classes, some young people began to converse with a little emotion while Pedro kept his instrument. Nico approached him to speak more calmly about what had happened.

"I didn't know you liked music"

"I didn't know you liked the piano, either."

"What you did was incredible"

"I am more than a bullying child"

"Hey, I know you don't want to help me with the party but I need ...

"I will do it"

"Than?" Nico said without believing in Pedro's words

"You heard me; I will help you organize the welcome party"

"Then we have a week to prepare everything"

"But where will we get the money to hire a DJ?"

"I know where to get that money"


While Nico and Pedro agreed on their work, Rafael spoke with Eva

"So you know everyone?" Eva asked

"Yes"

"You must have many friends"

"Something likes that"

"Which is your Instagram?" Eva asked taking out her cell phone looking for the toucan's name

"Rafael Lopez"

"Okay, I'll follow you"

"And what is your favorite activity?" Rafael asked with a little fear and emotion.

Rafael and Eva's conversation was interrupted by the sound of the bell indicating that the class was over.

"I have to go" Eva said taking her backpack and walking away from Rafael

"Okay, see you later" Rafael said goodbye with a little sadness to the Toucan woman

"We will see each other in the next class boys in the same classroom" Richard said goodbye to all the teenagers


All the students started to leave the music room so they could go to their next class while everyone was leaving. Lila had been waiting for Rafael since she saw him talking to one of Jewel's accomplices.

"Hello, I saw you talking to the toucan girl" Lila spoke walking next to Rafael

"If she is in the same class as me"

"You like it, right?"

"What do you say Lila? Of course I don't like her, she's a girl"

"A girl with a great rhythm," Lila commented, mocking Rafael as if she had read her friend's mind. Rafael blushed a little.

"Hears ...

"Do not lose your hopes with her Rafi. She is an accomplice of Jewel I doubt that she will listen to you"

"Maybe you are right but nothing costs trying"

"Are you crazy?" Lila said amazed "you can no longer fall in love like this"

"Love has no limits"

"It is you who has no limits"


While Rafael and Lila chatted Jewel and Roberto continued walking and talking with Eva

"Hey, why did you talk to Rafael?" the blue girl asked his best friend

"It was my dance partner Jewel there is nothing wrong" Eva answered knowing that Jewel is a little jealous

"He is a friend of Blu"

"And that has to do?"

"Blu is a loser" added Roberto

"I like him even though we only talk for about ten minutes"

"Eva you better stay away from him"

"Hey you are nobody to tell me who I should talk to" Eva clarified with a little seriousness to her friend

"I'm your best friend and I'm telling you in good shape" Jewel tried not to bother with the Toucan girl's words

"So if you're my best friend I don't want you to judge someone if you don't know him first"

Immediately Eva walked away from both Spix and continued walking to the next class


The next class was the last one of this day but the teacher did not show up and while they waited for his presence Rafael and Eva decided to speak like Lila, Dayana, Jaqueline and their new friend Brisa. Nico and Pedro continued talking about the party that they had to organize this time without insults and without fights, which surprised Nigel and his friends (mainly Felipe) Blu and Kipo were surprised to see Rafael talking to one of Jewel's accomplices but they They knew that this would be temporary since Rafael was flirting with women. Jewel kept thinking that Rafael was a bad influence on her friend but did not want to provoke a strong fight with Eva so he decided to leave her alone

"We could put a nice theme for the dance" proposed Pedro

"Like which?" asked the canary

"How about rap?"

"MMM ... Not everyone likes that, I also think that teachers hate that music"

"What's wrong with those guys?"

"I say the same"

"Then we could play romantic music" Nico proposed

"MMM ... I don't think so, not everyone is in love"

"It is true that it is not February 14"

"It has to be something unique"

"Surprising"

"And with rhythm"

"That's…." The two replied at the same time "An 80s party"

"O 60"

"O 70"

"They are both good" the two spoke again together

Nico and Pedro kept thinking of more ideas for the welcome party, forgetting about their differences and the blows they got for an hour when the bell rang. All the boys left school with great happiness, knowing that this weekend would be long and they had four days to rest and forget about school for a while


And we come to the end of the chapter dear readers. We just saw that Nico and Pedro made the passes and now they organize the welcome dance, we also saw that Rafael had a small talk with Eva that left him surprised. Could this be true love? Will Jewel intervene with Eva's new friendship? Your criticisms and comments will be heard (as they relate to the story) have fun this week with your family indoors and happy father's day to my dear mother
