Malta, Omicron Alpha. Evening


Alonso entered the bar, Lucian already sitting at the table. Lucian rose.
“Have you seen Mai today?” Lucian asked without a preamble.
“Sure, here in space” Alonso told him. “She was singing her jamm jamm song.”
“I hope she became jamm jamm from you?”
“No, not. As always.”
“But she is not yet in the bar, it’s not like her. I worry for her.”
“Mitsuko called a meeting later this day, Mai was there in Susi’s estate.”
“Paper rat … a meeting? Something happened?”
“Mitsuko Lin, Lucian, not Paper rat.”
“Oh c’mon, Alonso. Tell me what happened.”
“Mai Lin leaves Malta.”
Lucian dropped back, thankfully the chair was still there.
“What? When? Where? Why? No jamm jamm? Amigos have no jamm jamm? You are number one in her red list and you don’t give her jamm jamm? You know how she feels when she doesn’t get her jamm jamm? You never listen to her, you never care. How can …” Lucian kept blurting.
“Relax my friend” Alonso put his hand on Lucian’s shoulder. “She will sing her song for all Sirius. She said she would return in 4 weeks.”
“No way, Mai will never fly alone. I prepare -=Wind.of.Hope=- for launch” Lucian said, already half way to the door.
Alonso looked at Lucian’s back. He knew he would miss them. Her song, his friend’s comments, always made wrongest time possible. “Good luck” he thought. “Watch over her”.
