44. THE CELEBRATION

Nina and Nano had woken up in time to contemplate the new dawn from their terrace, as Nina did the first day with her mother, but the weather was not as hot as then, and they had to bundle up to contemplate that sublime spectacle.

“You know, every new dawn, I feel as if it filled me with new energy, and I have a feeling of what the additional day will bring me ...”

“And what bring you this one?”

“Peace, lots of peace!” Nina replied without hesitation.

“A brief word for great meaning!” Nano added.

“Peace in mind, peace in the soul, peace in the body, peace with your neighbors, peace in the streets of your city, peace in your nation, peace in the world! How beautiful the world in peace would be!”

“I sense it, Nina, you're about to compose a new song. You have the same absent expression as you did five years ago.

“Yes, listen:




«Two angels came down from heaven with a hard mission, to bring peace to the world and return men to reason.




They asked a wounded man what the reason was,

and he replied: in mind, here is no need for a reason.




They asked the enemy what their reason was,

and they replied: They are enemies of our nation, we don't need a reason.




They asked a crying girl what the reason was,

She replied: My dad died in the war, and my mom doesn't know why.




The two angels returned to heaven with great dismay and asked God for their consent, for what reason,

and He replied: because I do not have a reason either.

I gave men freedom of action to be guided by reason,

but they have preferred unreason.”




“Do you think we can put music on it so we can sing it tonight?”

“This place must have some special magic for you ...”

“No, Nano, what inspires me is not the place; They are your eyes the color of the sea!”

They prepared everything for a great meeting at the beach restaurant. The first to arrive were the director-manager and Nina's parents, while the young people enjoyed a refreshing swim on the beach. The director-manager gestured to them, indicating that they should go to the restaurant because everything was ready.

Nano walked over and commented:
“Can't we wait a little longer? We have invited an extraordinary person, and I would not like to start without them. I don't think it will take longer to arrive.”
The director had no chance to reply when Nano saw Sofia's car arrive, parked right on the beach.
“No need to wait any longer, they are here!” And he hurried to meet the one who saved them from a potential disaster in their teenage escape.
“Welcome to this little paradise, Sofia!”
“You must be an impostor; you cannot be the Nano that I met one hot night on the beach in front of my house!”
“Time is not fair: some rejuvenate and others age!”
“Ah, Nano, I think you already know my companion.”
“Yes, you are the gynecologist who attended to Nina in her false pregnancy ...”
“The same, but now you are not only the friend of the family but also my husband,” Sofia interrupted, taking him warmly by the arm. “Life goes on, Nano…”
“My warmest congratulations, but now you have to go to the restaurant because what we ordered is already ready, and we should not make them wait.”
Nina joined them, and Sofia greeted her with a warm hug.”
“Nina, you were beautiful in the poster of your concert, a bit of a rage, but as my children say: it's cool!”
Finally, the group gathered around an enormous table set up, with an immaculate white tablecloth in the center of which was a large tray with a varied assortment of the tastiest fish caught on that shoreline, and to accompany it several bottles of fine white wine, and a bottle of cava, with which the CEO made an emotional toast:
“I want to toast Lali, our new star because her fun performance saved the concert.”
But Lali politely declined the toast.”
“I think who deserves this toast is Nina, to whom I owe sitting here with such wonderful people ...
“No way,” Nina protested. “If any of us deserve this toast, it is Nano.”
But Nano also rejected it.
“Who really deserves it is Marc, who believed in the musical talent of both. He made the concert possible!
“That's not fair, Nano,” Marc commented, addressing the director-manager. “Nothing would have been possible without the trust he put in me by accepting Nina.”
“I see the toast finally comes back to me,” said the direct-manager. “I think we have forgotten someone who has been the true architect of everything that happened: friendship. Here's to friendship, especially between artists and entrepreneurs, that makes possible the harmony between art and business.”
Everyone accepted the toast.
Nina was the first to serve herself the tasty fish.
“Mom, it won't happen at the other time!” Today you don't have to ask the waiter to wrap the fish scraps for the cat!”
