CONTEMPLATIVE THOUGHTSA Story by Tasi83He felt that his life was a single incessant rush ,
commuting between minutes and seconds, which could only be preserved with
painful efforts. Ever since he was a child , he was constantly being followed. He was followed by his grandmother of Slovak origin ,
with whom they talked to each other in some unknown, alien half-mixed language,
like a special mixture of Slovak, Paloc, and Hungarian. It's as if three
languages were thrown into a blender at the same time so that they could get
along well , while they often hardly came to anything with understanding. also demanded of him , after all, he was the first- born
daughter in the family and since his father was a truck driver - well, if he
suddenly appeared out of nowhere one day - , it was almost natural for him to
say to all his acquaintances , relatives, curious, nosy neighbors: - My father
is working! barely two years later, the family grew with the addition
of a younger brother, and he was no longer teased or teased by anyone. And he!
It happened quite often that he had to diaper, occupy, and teach his younger
brother, and after a while the little boy became the target of petty , evil
things , who could not nothing he l His sister constantly treated him to Barbie
dolls , and he barely let her play Lego because he was a big favorite. Maybe he never really knew what he wanted to do with his
life. Not even when he visited the local high school on a beautiful sunny day
to introduce the young students to the tricks of the media profession. Although
in the beginning - as a small amount of pocket money - , the smaller, lighter
assignments he received at the local TV station, somehow he still thought that
if he wanted to be successful and recognized, and if he wanted to assert
himself, he would have to make a lot of noise in the city. it must be spent in
a whirlwind. filling out the admission form seemed like a hellish
obligation. As if only the unknown , imaginary , and in reality uncertain
future had deliberately conspired to turn him around and make him disappear
altogether. it is impossible to keep his other plans and ideas from him. In the
end , I selected three commercial , marketing - level colleges from the
admission information book , so that I could try the field of economics, but as
soon as the official answer came back that he had been accepted, he won, and
then visited each other for four hours at the end of the day , drawing his own
conclusion that for him on this track he simply has nothing to earn, even if ,
according to his parents, they are paid very well by the housekeeper. For
example , those who already move in certain circles. Finally, in his native city - through his mother - he
found an affordable teacher of speech technique and drama pedagogy , who
prepared him for the National Theater of Color and his soul deep down there ,
that certain critical and critical voice rang in his ears , saying : he is a
loser , a loser and will never be hired , even though he had just opened it in
Vas utca that particular door and entered. Although he successfully passed
the first two rounds , he was deeply disappointed that the final , final ,
third and last round of the given admission these teachers did not see any
fantasy in him and judged his grades to be average , for which he sweated for
years and worked very hard. When he went back to the country town - since it didn't
hurt to do something with his life - he was almost immediately offered a job at
the local radio station as an announcer and deputy staff member of the literary
section. He had to categorize and sort the world literature and contemporary
literary poems according to certain aspects, and although he only really
started to turn to poetry at the end of his adolescence, he did not really
enjoy his first job , and the fact that he he is a permanent earner , he could
get divorced as an adult. who knows how and how - some producers visited the small
rural town with plans to shoot a series, who almost immediately noticed the
angelic woman with a girlish face , but a more fit and determined individual.
they immediately offered a contract role in their upcoming series. Everyone
promised that this would change his old life in one fell swoop , and they were
n't telling the truth, because after a few episodes were shot, he started to
learn how to be an amateur. At the end of the year , in one or two years , I
looked up to a professor of color art in order to try another color art. In
Szetin, and it is no wonder that they took a different approach to it in the
current attempt, and it was accepted. He learned a lot from his teachers and instructors. In
addition to the most important aspects , he also developed an effective tool
for manipulation. At the same time, he was forced to move and assert himself in
the company of more and more high- class people , so he had less and less time
and energy left for his childhood acquaintances. He received the Golden Medal
award and a dozen or so recognitions and was still only in his thirties , but
at the same time his personal life remained a total chaos. Even before university , there were a couple of young men
whom she dated once or twice , but somehow she still didn't find her place.
During the filming of that series, he became involved in a more intimate
relationship with a talented writer who was ten or so years older than him.
Later , the psychologist even warned her that she should not confuse the father
complex with true love. But what did he know back then , how emotions could
arise , in a world that was fundamentally set on appearance. , some juicy, gossip - hungry tabloid magazines also
announced with a huge photo that the star couple was separating, and this
affected him so much that for years he avoided all kinds of interviews , even
if he was active in the given tabloid world he editors also promised him stars.
to focus exclusively on his own rising career. He got
more and more challenging professional theater roles in a row , and he was able
to work with fantastically creative , versatile directors , and of course he
got in quite a few It was also a hugely successful film , but his restless soul
was still struggling in life , and he often had no idea what he should do about
it. , and live a balanced life. Then, when he could feel that everything was in place,
his father died unexpectedly, whom he regarded as a bit of a stranger all his
life, since he had hardly seen him since he was a small child. After the
funeral, both his mother and grandmother seemed to have woven an emotional web
around his entire life up to that point, and they began to say more and more
often that he shouldn't be alone forever after all. Finally, one fine day, she
received a bouquet of roses made of a hundred strands, decorated with a
business card, from an unknown, secret admirer, and the small business card
even had a mobile number on it. And since most of his fellow actors
enthusiastically encouraged him to venture boldly into new things, he thought
of something and that same day he called my mobile number at night. He could
n't sleep either , because the post- sale adrenaline was working so hard in his
body, and the tension I ca n't call a good night 's worth. - Sorry for bothering you so late, but I wanted to know
how you would like to meet in person? - he said into the mobile phone, and only
then did he realize that normal, average people are still having their best
sleep around this time. But for some mysterious reason, the mysterious man was
also awake. - I kiss your hand dear! No, it doesn't bother me at all!
I couldn't sleep either... - he answered in a slightly hoarse, sleepy voice,
which could hardly be attributed to insomnia. - I hope you liked the roses? - What's the name? What do we call a rose that is so
fragrant? - he answered wittily with a quote. - Where and when would you like to meet? - Tell me, how about this Saturday? Maybe on Jászai Mari
Square? he asked with an excited, beating heart. - One minute! I'll write it down so I don't forget! - he
already reached for the notebook he had left on his small nightstand, from
which he could see that he was a precise, serious person and not some kind of
thoughtless brat. - I like it when a man is serious and determined! It
gives them confidence! - his statement surprised us the most , because he is
not used to revealing himself so openly , and at his level - at least for the
first time. - Then it's Saturday at half past ten in the afternoon! - with that
he put down the mobile in a flash, because they would have continued to talk
about him , that it was dawning on them , and that he had a presence at the
workplace that day. Finally, he woke up at a little after five in the
morning, and his puppy also felt the sudden change in mood, which somehow
characterized him for the rest of the day. He scattered and worried about
himself that day at work , and with all his work he thought he had fallen in
love with someone. Of course, he always left his lips with eloquent answers ,
just like most lovers. Saturday came a little sooner than he expected. A bright
, bird - chirping , sunny morning. _ Although he had often loved spending the
whole day in his pajamas in his own apartment , for the sake of his own comfort
, he was at least as nervous and excited at the same time as when someone he is
getting ready for his first , more serious date. She put on a not - too -
elegant , light , pretty dress and the indispensable pair of jeans , which
exude a special , urban modernity _ _ him. He gave the puppy water, fed it and
left home well before nine o'clock. Barely twenty minutes passed before he reached Jászai
Mari Square. She was n't disappointed , because - as it turned out later -, a
man also likes Moravia. She recognized him almost immediately, as he stood up
from the table of a cafe, tall and tight in his suit, and hurried to meet her: - Good morning, dear... lady! I am lawyer Andrew Soós! -
the introduction started out a bit clichéd, but which acquaintance starts off
perfectly? - Uh... Welcome... Andrew... - his heart began to beat
violently, pounding. It is not known whether it was love , or the accumulation
of familiar emotional energies that caused this. - I see you could n't arrive
in time either! - he remarked kindly, with a little tingle. - I'm a Frusi! - Forgive me, but it's been a long time since I dated! -
he blurted out and apologized, like a little boy. Fruzsi immediately felt a
deep sympathy for him. - Then do it yourself instead of formal manners! - he
already pulled out the chair , but seeing that the tall man was polite before
him , he blushed pleasantly. - You are a real knight, dear Andrew! - he sat
down and waited while the others did the same. - It is inherent in today's somewhat absurd, grotesque
age that certain rules of etiquette are starting to slip away! - he remarked
with a teacher's accent. - How right you are! Should we order something...? Andrew had already called over a man who looked like a
waiter , who immediately appeared from their table , perhaps because Andrew was
wearing a branded jacket and trousers. - Do they order? - stopped in front of him. - Yes! Would you please bring a latte for the lady? -
here, with his handsomeness, he looked straight into Fruzsi 's hazel eyes ,
which he almost melted. - A coke would also be good for me! - he answered as soon
as their eyes connected. - Thank you very much! The waiter had already left, so they could plunge into
the deep waters of romantic acquaintance almost immediately. In addition to the
usual , initial topics, topics such as starting a family and the issue of
children were also discussed , and who had a happy-sad childhood? What was the
essential experience of first teenage love like? etc. They had already been chatting for more than five hours ,
when both of them suddenly felt that they could not even exist without each
other. They finished each other's most hidden , smallest thoughts with love! In
the end , Andrew was the one who came with the farb : - Can I ask something very seriously? - he looked at her
wolf-eyed. - You're not limping when asking for a girl, are you? -
she asked back mischievously, giggling like a little girl with a potluck. - Well, if it looks like that! You have made a deep
impression on me that I want you to know that my intentions are serious, and I
thought I would ask what are your plans? was both cheerfully surprised , but also slightly
panicked by the thought that she would now be someone 's happy wife and someone
's mother in one person. His independence and freedom are in minor danger. - This pace is a bit fast for me, dear Andrew, but I
don't want you to think that I don't care! I 'd like some time to think ,
okay?! If we both get along , next year we'll see what life brings , right?! -
he looked at her with a questioning look. The man could clearly see that he
really did not expect such an answer , but he was very impressed that Frusi
told the truth openly and directly. He did n't trust him and he did n't wallow
in a random seat either. - Well... on his level , I'm glad that you are so... open
and decisive... - he blurted out loudly. Fruzsi took the slightly rough, large hands between her
tiny palms. , I know that you probably did n't expect this answer ,
but I say let's give ourselves time! OK?! At the end of the day, they found out pretty much all the
relevant information about each other. In just two years, Fruzsi made a big
decision: she wanted to be a wife. They held a smaller, narrow , friendly
ceremony because they had to be careful because of COVID. Fruzsi was able to feel like someone who could really
succeed in both his personal and professional spheres. © 2023 Tasi83 |
