Juliana’s workshop Chapter 11: Romiona and Apo


  Lulunaka and others have been away for more than a month, and Romyona and Apo have been alone for more than a month. After Olga left, Romeo Na felt that she had returned to the days when her mother had just left. Life at that time was far from good. For children, after the death of an adult who they could rely on, they would be an orphan, and it was very difficult to go to an orphanage like her, who was already a little old at the time. Thing. And Romiuona didn't want to go to the orphanage. Life was already difficult. With her mother, she learned some manual work and could barely let herself live on her own. This kind of life continued until Olga reappeared in front of him, and the days of poverty became a little better, and then until he was taken back to the so-called home by the Mulining family-the home of his biological father.

   Until now, I have become a dead person again, staying in the eastern part of the dead forest without human traces, and become an unidentified person. But Romiuona didn't complain about it. The suffocating place was not her heart.

   But she is where she should be, and where is she? Romyona herself didn't know the answer.

   It's late at night, Romouona can't sleep until she can't close her eyes in the end, gets up and leaves the room. When she walked out of the room, the night wind blew her cheeks. The wind on the seashore is moist and has a salty taste. Romiuona is very used to this taste. The straits divided by the Oland continent have endless sea waters to the south. People who live in King's Castle, especially those who live near the sea, even breathe with the smell of sea water.

  Romiona walked towards the end of the cape. She looked up at the sky, and saw the bright moon high above the night sky, and the moonlight was falling on the sea and the earth. This situation reminded her of something that happened more than a month ago. But is that real or a dream?

   When Romyona opened her eyes again, she found herself lying on the bed, the sky was already bright. The confrontation between Lulunaka and Apo last night was like a dream, and it was not really happening at all—it was unbelievable what seemed to have happened in a dream.

   Romeo Na wanted to ask Lulunaka, what happened that night, was it her dream or did it happen? But she didn’t have the courage to ask Lulunaka, and Lulunaka didn’t give her time to brew courage. After a few days, she took Olga and others to leave, leaving her alone with Awasaku. Companion.

   It has been a while, but the doubts in Romiuona's heart have not disappeared. The two people who appeared in the "dream" were silent and did not explain to Romeo Na, as if it was really just a dream.

  Romiona walked towards the end of the cape and saw a figure. In this remote place, if it is not an unfriendly uninvited guest, then the person standing there can only be Apo, who also lives in this chapel.

   This scene, Romeo Na seems to have seen it in her dream. But that time, there was another Lulunaka here, and now, Lulunaka is no longer there, only Apo, standing where Lulunaka once stood, looking at the sea.

   When Romyona walked towards him behind him, Apo did not turn around. He seemed to know that Romiuona was behind him. When Romiuona approached him, she faced the sea and said, "Night walking is not a good habit, especially in such remote places."

   "It's not a good thing to walk at night in a brightly lit place." Romiuona said, "If there is no protection, weak people-people like me, can easily be swallowed by darkness. God knows What is hiding in the darkness, the thief's hand? The robber's knife? The assassin's dagger? Or the trafficker's lasso?"

   Apo turned around and faced Romeuona. Romeo Na saw the broken two-handed sword in his hand. This weapon from a soldier who had been dead for more than a hundred years arrived in Lulunaka's hands, and was handed over to Julius, and then into Apo's hands. Even if there is moonlight shining, this broken sword is still bleak.

   "You used to live in King's Castle, right?" Apo asked.

  Romiona nodded. Awa looked at the sea again, "That's a good place, but it's also a terrible place... It's so bad that children like you know the pains of life and the unnecessary enlightenment."

   "My mother said that people living in King's Castle are always a bit different from people in other places." Romyona said, "She said, in this pious country, the closest to God Yes, that’s us. It also made us suffer more, but we still survived."

   Apo was silent for a while, "Your mother is a devout believer." He said, "She loves that place, doesn't she?"

   "So she didn't leave there until she died." Romyona said.

   "Did she leave with a smile, or in pain?" Apo continued to ask.

   This time it was Romeo Na’s turn to be silent, and after a while, she said, "I don’t know."

   Apo looked back at Romeo Na.

   Romeuona continued, "I don’t know, what kind of expression it is... It’s not a smile, but it’s definitely not a painful resentment, but seeing her like that makes me sad. Get up." The memory of the past is still in her heart, but to Romeo Na, the face of her mother before her death has become blurred. Was it because it was a painful memory that she selectively erased it? Romeo Na did not know.

   "I think it's a pity, kid." Awa said, "That's the way I know I don't have much time, but I still have things I want to do. I can understand that feeling."

   "Why?"

   "I have seen too many faces like that." Apo said, "I'm used to it."

   Apo does not seem to want to talk too much on this topic, "So, are you a nobleman? Some of your usual behaviors make me feel this way, but it's not pure enough."

   Romeuona waved her hand, "It's just a half-hearted, and I have been abandoned."

   Apo did not continue to ask, "This is a good thing, if you become a real and pure "nobleman"... I don't think we will have any chance to chat. I don't like those people."

   "Me too," Romyona said. Romeo Na also wanted to say that she also found traces of nobility on Apo, but she couldn't say this. She felt that Apo would not like others to mention such things.

  Apo did not continue to speak, but looked at the sea and was silent. He raised the broken sword with both hands and raised it high, as if to divide the sea in two. Romiuona didn't know what he planned to do, but when Apo swung the broken sword down, she saw a moment of light.

   The light is fleeting, but it illuminates the sky and the sea. She closed her eyes as if she had been exposed to strong light. She didn't know what happened, but how familiar the light was, it reminded her of what was suspected to be in a dream-the light was even more dazzling~IndoMTL.com~ In the end, there was a blank in front of her eyes, and when she woke up, she found herself On the bed, the ceiling told her silently that it was a dream.

   But is that really a dream?

   Apo took the sword back, turned and walked to Romeuona, who closed his eyes, "I know Lulunaka gave you some books before leaving."

   Romeuona opened her eyes slightly and saw Apo standing in front of her. He was as tall as Olga, and on this night, this tall silhouette looked a bit similar to Olga, which made Romeo Na miss Olga a bit. "She said it can relieve my boredom." Romeo Na said, "In this kind of place, there seems to be nothing else to do except for daily work."

   "She's lying to you." Apo said straightforwardly, making Romeo Na a stunned, "That's not a book that can relieve boredom, but you didn't feel it. In other words, you have felt it, but still I don’t know what it is and what it means. Tell me, did you see the light just now?"

  Romiona nodded.

   Apo sighed, and reached out and pressed Romiuona's head. "She gave me a problem." When he finished speaking, he passed Romeuona and walked to the chapel.

  Romiona didn't know what Apo meant by this, but she knew who "she" was in Apo's mouth. She turned her head and asked Apo, "What the **** was going on with that light just now? And what happened that night, was it really just my dream?"

   Apo didn’t look back, "If you want to know if it’s a dream, just go find the answer yourself." He went on, but finally turned his head, "If there’s something you don’t understand in those books, just Ask me. Don’t look at me like this, I am fairly familiar with theology...Although I am not a devout believer."
