Labyrinth: Eclispe,parte 4

_ You have to be obedient, my love- said Blossom

You could hear young people everywhere destroying and destroying things that people had absolute faith in, there was looting everywhere, robberies, banks destroyed and all the wealthy people robbed, the Law of the Jungle now ruled the whole world, but still, there was a short period in the hours when everything seemed to calm down, because if not, everyone would disappear, humanity continued to live at 80% of the estimated amount, 20% lost their lives, although it was much, much more than that statistic, it gave the appearance that things had finally calmed down, people were desperate, although the situation was already calming down due to the fact that the moon continued to retreat and the eclipse was retreating, but the astronomical movements put humanity in much, much anguish, not even the bravest, most powerful, nor the most reckless warrior, there was no way for a single person to be as if nothing was happening.

_ I've been thinking.... -said Jawara- I, am....-he lets out a sigh- I know that I can give the appearance that I don't care or that.... maybe... I go unnoticed in the things that are happening now, but maybe, it's just a difficult period of that end of the world that they talked so much about, that end of the world maybe is a very very difficult period of time for humanity to mold ourselves and face a new world, dear, I think that...

_ Jawara! Don't you realize? People kill each other, The law of the jungle is all over the world, there is chaos in everything, even politicians are very afraid, the police can't control people, the authorities can't do anything, we mustn't go unnoticed.....

_ Blossom! Please, I beg you... Jawara lets out a heavy sigh - look... I know you have compelling reasons for this, for telling me this, but if I do it, it's because someone has to make a difference, someone has to promote peace, but it takes a very, very brave thing to do that.

_ I know, my love, but obedience is not synonymous with a lack of courage, in fact, obedience is an act of courage, because today people don't want to obey. They are only governed by "follow your heart" and look what happened! Jawara! You yourself faced that girl dominated by her emotions, and look at the fuss she caused there! At your graduation presentation, how much debate there was! The truth is that I learned something powerful from Alexander's younger sister: having opinions is not bad, what is bad is when you hold on to them and impose them on others, that causes divisions, and that is why the world is the way it is, letting itself be carried away by pride, selfishness, arrogance, haughtiness, and it has only brought problems. What Britney, her sister, told me left me frozen. I never imagined how right she was! Honey: I know you are sincerely interested in everyone, but you should still listen, know how to listen, and even more so when it is powerful advice, don't believe it, it is hard for me too, but... What I have seen from people who are very cerebral, is that they are very right in their decisions and advice, it is true, they may make mistakes, like everyone else, but it is time to listen to those who we believe are exaggerating or we take them for "sanctimonious".

_ Love, I am not paying you to lecture me.

_ You are not paying me for anything, Jawara, for nothing.

_There come Joshua and Sharon!

_ Sharon! Joshua! Brother! Why did they leave their houses and join us here?

_ The eclipse has already passed! - said Sharon

_ What do you mean, it's already passed? - said Jawara surprised.

_ Yes, in astronomy studies, not even the deepest technicalities that can be studied, not even the most outstanding theories that have been proven, can match what we are experiencing, but now that the eclipse has passed, things are calming down.

_ Iris told us about it - said Joshua.

_ What did she say, brother? - asked Blossom

_ As you know, she is a reporter, and with several interviews with scientists, engineers, designers, artists, doctors, among others, and seeing how the world is currently, people are calming down and returning to their routine, the news is spreading and they know it, all over the world, those who could hold out, and well, many are returning to their routines, students to their schools, professionals and those with jobs to their jobs, and well, just generalizing.

_ But the best news, Jawara - said Sharon - is that you, my brother, will be able to present your project again tomorrow in the same auditorium, it's amazing! But it is a building that remained intact despite so much turbulence, looting and so on worldwide, and all those who supported you yesterday, despite the comments of that sentimental teenager, will come back to the auditorium, even those who supported "the cause of that teenager."

_ That is very very good news! - exclaimed Jawara - I must present the project, and now I know that I will be able to give more and

Hope for humanity, I know that things have been extremely difficult. But the bad is over, and I will have enough time to continue with my projects, now that I finally got engaged to the most beautiful woman in the world, now that I will finally have her by my side for the rest of my life, I want to leave a powerful legacy, but not a personal one, one that will mark forever, one that is beyond what one can imagine, something more than selfishness.

Everyone is happy that the eclipse has passed, but things when it comes to the end of the world, one never imagines what it will really be like. The best thing is to be prepared, but the truth is, no one is prepared. But Jawara's joy was infinite, but little does he imagine "how little" it will last with what is coming. That peace that was seen, was a peace of imitation.
