ONE
MORNING SCREAM WENT TO THE MARKET OF MARMIROLO TO BUY SOME FISH, SOME FRUITS AND VEGETABLES AND ABOVE ALL THE GRANA CHEESE THAT HE LOVED SO MUCH!
BUT,
CROSSING THE BRIDGE, HE SAW A CACTUS. HE WAS VERY SURPRISED AND HE THOUGHT: "THAT IS REALLY STRANGE! CACTUS NORMALLY GROW IN THE DESERT, NOT ON BRIDGES!" TO MAKE SURE IT WAS REALLY A CACTUS, SCREAM TOUCHED IT AND...HE GOT PRICKED ALL OVER!!! HE SCREAMED LOUDLY FOR THE PAIN!
AFTER THIS MISADVENTURE, HE REALIZED HE HAD FORGOTTEN SOMETHING REALLY IMPORTANT: TO BUY SPAGHETTI, THE FAVORITE FOOD OF HIS SON! AND HE HAD PROMISED HIM TO COOK SPAGHETTI FOR LUNCH! HE WENT BACK QUICKLY TO THE MARKET, BUT...IT WAS CLOSED!!! "AAAHHH!!!! - HOW CAN I KEEP MY PROMISE NOW? HE SCREAMED..."
SUDDENLY, SCREAM HAD AN IDEA! "I'M GOING TO ASK THE WIZARD OF MARMIROLO" HE CROSSES THE BRIDGE OF MARMIROLO. HE AVOIDS THE CACTUS AND HE AVOIDS PRICKING HIMSELF WITH THIS STRANGE BIG CACTUS. HE ARRIVES TO THE WIZARD AND HE KNOCKS ON THE DOOR: "TOC!TOC!TOC!" THE WIZARD ASKS WITH A SWEET VOICE: "WHO IS IT?" - "IT;S ME, SCREAM!" - "JUST PRESS THE LATCH AND COME INSIDE!" . THE DOOR IS OPENING. SCREAM COMES INSIDE AND HE TELLS HIS STORY: - "BECAUSE OF THIS DAMN CACTUS THAT MADE ME WASTE TIME, I HAVE FORGOTTEN THE SPAGHETTIS FOR MY SON AND I CAN'T KEEP MY PROMISE, HE WILL BE SAD! I AM DESPERATE AND I DON'T KNOW ANYMORE WHAT TO DO!" -"I MAKE SPAGHETTIS APPEAR FOR YOU!" -"OH! I'M FEELING MORE RELIEVED!"
"ACADABRA!
BRACADABRA! ASCADABRA!". "PCHHHHHTTT!!!" "TCHIOUOU!!!" SCREAM DISAPPEARS AND REAPPEARS ON THE TOP OF THE EIFFEL TOWER! "AAAAAHHHHH! HELP! HELP!", "IS THERE SOMEBODY WHO CAN HELP ME TO GET DOWN THE EIFFEL TOWER? AAAAHHH, I'M FALLING!"
SCREAM
FALLS ON A PARISIAN BARDGE FULL OF CACTUS. "OUTCH!“
"I'M
FED UP WITH ALL THESE CACTUS WHICH RUIN MY ALL DAY!" "WHAT A DAY!" "OH MY GOD!" "I'M SWEPT BY THE CURRENT OF THE SEINE RIVER AND I' DON'T KNOW WHERE I'M GOING!" "TO AMERICA? TO CHINA" TO JAPAN?, TO AFRICA?, TO ITALY?, TO "MOROCCO? OR WHAT SHOWS HERE... TO GREECE?"
SCREAM TRAVELLED MANY DAYS. HE HAD NO ONE TO SPEAK AND HE HAD FED UP WITH ALL THESE CACTUS. "I AM GOING TO THROW THEM INTO THE SEA" I CAN'T STAND BY THE CAUSE OF MY MISFORTUNE..."
AND HE MOVED TO GRAB A CACTUS TO THROW HIM. BUT WHEN HE TOUCHED ONE HE FELT PAIN AGAIN. "AAAAHHHH". HE CRIED....
SUDDENLY
HE HEARD A VOICE. - "DON'T THROW US INTO THE SEA!" - "SORRY FOR THE PAIN." SCREAM THOUGHT: - "I MUST BE MAD!" - "I HEAR VOICES, I MISS MY SON, SO MUCH! I WANT TO GO BACK HOME...!"
BUT
SOON HE FORGOT HIS SADNESS. THE BOAT WAS MOVING. SCREAM THOUGHT HE MIGHT SINK. HE HEARD THE VOICE AGAIN: "DON'T BE AFRAID! IT'S A MERMAID. SHE FOLLOW US." SCREAM ANSWERED. "IT CAN'T BE TRUE. THERE ARE NO MERMAIDS. THESE ARE STORIES FOR KIDS!"
BUT
SUDDENLY SCREAM SHOW HER. SHE CAME UP AND TALKED TO HIM.
- "WHERE ARE YOU GOING?, SHE ASKED HIM SCREAM
TOLD HER HIS ADVENTURE
-"THAT'S WHY YOU ARE SO SAD", SHE SAID -"YOU KNOW, I AM SAD TOO...!"
"
WHY?"
SCREAM ASKED
THE MERMAID TOLD HIM THE STORY OF HIS BROTHER, THE GREAT ALEXANDER AND AFTERWARDS HE ASKED HIM THE SAME QUESTION SHE USED TO ASK EVERY SAILOR MAN SHE MET ON SEA. -"IS THE GREAT ALEXANDER ALIVE?" SCREAM FELT SORRY FOR HER AND ANSWERED - "YES, HE LIVES...!"
THEN,
THE MERMAID WELCOME HIM IN THE PORT OF THESSALONIKI - "FIRST GO TO THE ANCIENT ROMAN MARKET AND BUY OIL, SPAGHETTI, PLANTS THAT SMELLS WONDERFUL..."
- "THEN, GO TO THE SCHOOL IN THE HISTORICAL CENTRE OF THE TOWN", SHE SAID
SCREAM
DID EXACTLY WHAT THE MERMAID TOLD HIM.
AS SOON HE ARRIVES AT THE SCHOOL OF P.P.S.P.TH., HE WENT DIRECTLY TO THE KITCHEN AND COOKED WITH THE HELP OF THE KIDS SPAGHETTI.
BUT
THEN SOMETHING STRANGE HAPPENED HE HEARD THE VOICE OF THE CACTUS AGAIN AND A KNOCK AT THE DOOR "TOC! TOC! TOC!" -"OPEN US... WE WANT TO COME IN AND EAT SPAGHETTI... REMEMBER THE PROMISE YOU GAVE ME DADDY...!"
SCREAM OPENED THE DOOR ΑND SAW THE CACTUS...SORRY I MEAN THE KIDS THAT TRAVELLED WITH HIM ALL THESE DAYS FROM ITALY TO FRANCE AND FINALLY TO GREECE.
OH,
-"
YOU ARE HERE MY SON. COME AND EAT SPAGHETTI WITH US. HOW HAPPY I AM NOW!“
