-Gein’s memory
Vienna in my memory was always accompanied by his smile. By the golden pond, amid the fragrant cluster of flowers, he always smiled at me, it feels close at hand, but why can it be touched.
It seemed that everything was still yesterday, but yesterday was already very far away.
He could no longer play the “Moonlight” like before.
At that time, he was always followed by my side. When I was lonely, alone, I turned my head and will see his warm smile. He like to call my name in a low voice.
“Gein…….Gein……Gein……”
Although I didn’t respond but I didn’t refuse either. I like him calling me like that, it made me felt like I exist and that someone was still keeping watch by my side.
Later, I didn’t know when it started, I had slowly accepted him.
He said he was an orphan and his parents died young. He asked me if I want to live together with him.
It was the first sunny afternoon I had felt in 10 years.
I learned “Moonlight” in his arms, and he took my hand as we went back to our “home”.
It was a very humble, but very warm home, we live depended on each other.
I would sit quietly and listened while he played the piano, he would pour me a glass of milk while I eat. Just such simple things made me felt very satisfied, very satisfied……
Those days were poor but very happy. I often asked him what he would do if he has money.
He would always smile and said, first I will buy a beautiful house, then I will buy an expensive piano, and after that, just the two of us will live in it, until we grow old……
This dream, I had never forgotten since then……
This dream, I can never achieve in this life……
The period of 5 years was like running water, passed very quickly. I grew up gradually in the passage of times, so was my body and my heart. But he was the same as he was 5 years ago, his appearance didn’t change and his heart remained the same.
At that time, I thought: It would be great if Alpha never changed, but I forgot that time had never been kind.
In the summer of 1928, when my father came to Vienna, no one expected that he would be a German general, or that I would be the general’s son.
I told him, I didn’t want to leave, and that I cared more about him compared to glory and wealth.
He looked at me with only a faint smile, a faint and sad smile. He said: “How can I hold you back from your bright future!”
Just for this one sentence, I determined to make him proud of me.
The night before I returned to my home country, he and I sat in front of the old piano and didn’t sleep all night. The silver moonlight sprinkled on his body, giving off a kind of indescribable ethereal and beauty.
I remember leaned over and whispered beside his ears: “Alpha……if I have money in the future……I will buy you a luxurious villa……okay?……”
He said: “……Okay……”
I asked him again: “I will also buy you the world’s most expensive piano, okay?……”
He still nodded his head and said: “……Okay……”
“Then we will stay in that house until we grow old, what do you say?……”
“……Okay……”
Many years later, I always cried when I recalled that night.
He was lying quietly in my arms just like he did then, sleeping quietly, and letting me kissed his lips quietly again and again.
But at that time, he was very happy, happier than he was now……
Alpha, why……can’t we go back.
