Today is the Day (S1 Ep.19-13)

Wednesday, March 19

Today it’s predicted to be a long day. General rehearsal! The last rehearsal before the big day! And it's Father's day... 

By this time I have my own tradition, I lost my father very young, with only three years of age, but I have a clear image of his face in two different moments. I used to think it was my fantasy until I had the courage to share with mom and then she described the moments that I reminded in more detail.

The first memory I'm sitting on the kitchen floor, on a small blanket, my favourite blanket at that time, according to mother, playing with some cloth dolls, while dad smiling was doing the dinner, I can't remember what he was saying, but I do not forget his smile.

In the second, I didn't know exactly what day it was, not where we were, I saw him lying on a white shroud in a box... - Maybe that's why I thought it was just a dream. - Mother lifted me up and with the bright-eyed said... - "One last kiss to dada, he has to go to heaven..."

A few years later, winning the conscience of that day, I understand its meaning and where he had gone. But a part of him continued with us, in a sense. So after school, I was trying to go to the cemetery, without giving for me, slipping between looks, because I wanted to go alone. I wanted to share with him my happiness, some sadness, but above all, I would tell him how I miss him.

And today, as then, have joys to share with him, I've got this crazy story of Joan and above all...

Rose: I hope you have found peace. Mother keeps demanding as always... Her eyes have dried up, but they don't lie, she misses you, we all do! Happy father's day, Dad!

Put the white rose in the small vase next to his photo and with a small heavy in my chest, I went to the garden of the Palace. It's a weird feeling inside, doesn't hurt as it used to, no longer bring back the tears of abandonment, of loss. Is this sense of hope that his suffering has come to an end and that he is in a place of peace, where the sun shines, there is no cold, no heat, just serenity...

Joan: Here it is! Rose, we got the dressing-room ready. The network failure and the lights are already corrected. We are ready for the general rehearsal.

Rose: Are the laser lights ready?

Dianne: Everything!                                                                   

Sofie: Is it just me, or do you also feel that?

Monic: What Sofie?

Sofie: I had this chill up in my spine!

Dianne: Are the nerves. Calm down. - Blinked her eye and continued. - Today is just a general rehearsal.

Joan: Are you ready?

All: Yes.

Rose: Let's do this...

Thursday, March 20

... It is inevitable to feel all this adrenaline coursing through my body, contain the will to release a cry of happiness is difficult.

The time has come, the benches are full. Charlie's with audio and video controllers to announce each step of the fashion show. I'm nervous, however, and as strange as it is, I think it's a good nervous. It will be the first time that I'm going to do the catwalk with the girls. Each one of us personifying our heteronymous.

The enthusiasm coming from the benches is captivating at every step feel a shake inside and to the sound of the FairyTailors I tend to let it go, giving some dance moves while walking...
