Capítulo 844 La primera lección de violín de Gregory
Tessa, en particular, se sentía cálida por dentro. Tomando a Gregory en sus brazos, dijo con una sonrisa: “¿Estás tan feliz de estar conmigo?”
“¡Por supuesto! Me gustas más, mami”, respondió Gregory, profesando su amor por su madre con voz infantil.
Al escuchar su conversación, Nicholas no pudo evitar maravillarse con la magia del parentesco. Greg y Tessa no saben nada, pero se sienten atraídos el uno por el otro debido a sus lazos naturales. Al pensar en esto, miró a la madre y al hijo riéndose con mayor ternura en sus ojos. Al ver la brillante sonrisa del niño, no pudo evitar burlarse de él y decirle: “Estás tan feliz de estar con tu mamá. ¿No me extrañas?”
“Te extraño, pero extraño aún más a mamá”, dijo Gregory mientras abrazaba a Tessa de una manera pegajosa. Luego, continuó con una voz dulce: “Y además, he vivido contigo durante tantos años, así que ahora debería pasar más tiempo con ella. Papi, no estés celoso de mami, ¿de acuerdo? Con eso, le dio a Nicholas una mirada que decía ‘no seas irrazonable’.
Nicholas frunció el ceño divertido.
Tessa no podía dejar de reír mientras miraba. Después de un rato, reprimió su risa y consoló a Nicholas, diciendo: “Está bien, no estés celoso de mí. Llevaré a Greg a verte cuando estemos libres.
“No estoy celoso. Solo quería burlarme de él”, explicó Nicholas. Luego, agregó con ternura: “Y con Greg haciéndote compañía allí, puedo estar tranquilo”.
Tessa asintió.
La familia de tres conversó por otro rato antes de colgar.
…
The next morning, Tessa took Gregory to Sofia’s manor after having breakfast.
Sofia smiled affably when she saw the mother and son in the living room. She asked, “Have you two eaten breakfast?”
“Yes, we have.” Tessa nodded.
Gregory also nodded like an adult, saying, “We’ve eaten breakfast, Granny Sofia. Have you eaten?”
“Yes, I have,” replied Sofia. Then, she tenderly beckoned Gregory over, saying, “Come on, let me take you to the music room to take your lesson.”
Gregory nodded before following Sofia to the music room.
As today was his first day learning how to play the violin, Tessa followed them to the music room, fearing that he might not get used to it.
After entering the music room, Sofia didn’t start teaching Gregory right away. Instead, she tested his basic knowledge. She took out several short musical compositions of different levels of difficulty, asking him to play the compositions one by one. However, little did she think that the boy would surprise her again. Gregory already had no trouble playing simple musical compositions. He played the violin with the right technique, so it was clear that he had practiced assiduously. As for intermediate-level musical compositions, the boy’s skills were still immature, but he once again displayed an amazingly fine ear for music. “Tessa, Greg is simply born to play the violin. He’s a genius!” Shocked, she looked at Tessa with excitement while being somewhat unable to control her emotions.
Tessa was also happy that Gregory possessed such a natural gift.
Roughly figuring out what Sofia’s words meant, Gregory asked in a cheery voice, “Granny Sofia, am I amazing?”
“Yes, you are, Greg. You’re very talented.” Sofia nodded with a smile. Then, she said, “Even though you’re talented, you have to practice hard.”
Gregory nodded enthusiastically. “Don’t worry, Granny Sofia. I’ll certainly practice as hard as I can.”
Seeing how obedient the boy was, Sofia felt that she had come across a real treasure.
It was time for Tessa’s lesson in the afternoon. As Sofia had figured out how skilled she was, she drew up a study plan for her and taught her with pertinence.
The lesson lasted for half of the day, during which time Tessa learned a lot from Sofia. At the end of the lesson, she and Gregory bid Sofia farewell, saying, “We gotta go, Miss Sofia. See you tomorrow.”
“See you tomorrow, Granny Sofia.”
“Te veo mañana.” Sofía observó cómo la madre y el hijo subían al auto y se iban.
De camino a casa, Tessa preguntó con cariño: “Greg, ¿estás cansado después de la lección de hoy?”
“No, no estoy cansado. ¿Estás cansada, mami? ¿Me porté bien?”
