The Little Prince's Journal
Ep. 2
Alexander. Wake up. Alex?
Mom the rose
Hi my dear son. How are you feeling?
Alexander
I'm feeling well thanks.
Mom the rose
Good to know. I heard of what happened today. Spacing out... What will you do to save your situation?
Alexander
I felt sick and I saw my fox again!
Mom the rose
So that's your excuse?
Mom the rose
I'll talk with your teacher but you know... You need to focus still.
Alexander
Yes... I know mom.
I've always seen my mother as a rose. I always heard her voice like it was a soft song, a melody brought by the wind. It makes my heart feel good when she is here.
Mom the rose
So... It's almost time for me to go back to work. I was wondering if you wanted anything before I go.
Alexander
Well... I just want you to stay.
Mom the rose
I'm afraid I can't. I'm so sorry... I'll come back tomorrow. But seriously. Anything you want?
Alexander
Then I'd like a piano. A piano that will fit in my room.
Alexander
Yes! Like the one I have back home. I want to play piano.
Mom the rose
Ok then. I'll find yoh a piano.
Mom the rose
Bye my little prince!
I was all alone again. I was alone in this hospital room, not wanting to focus on my homework and trying to make myself feel better.
The fox
What is wrong my dear?
Alexander
Mom is always working. She's working all the time. She came for a five minute talk... That's not fun. I miss her.
The fox
Yes I understand. But maybe is she working hard so she can still pay your treatments? And this hospital room? And the piano you asked for.
Alexander
Yes... I know. I'm so selfish. But not knowing when my canddle will be blown, I need to be my loved ones wich is hard with mom working all the time and my teacher being always on my back.
Alexander
And I really want to visit the world. I want to get out of here. It's no fun in this smelly hospital with rude nurses and my doctor... It's not fun to be sick...
The fox path Alex's head and dissapeared in one corner of the room.
Alexander
I'm tired of this place. I just want to grow up and live like a normal person...
