Party (2

Virtya poured some more wine from a copper cylinder into his copper cup and drunk it all in a single gulp before he grimaced and then he leaned forward so that his chest touched the table. He placed his arm on the table and supported his chin with the palm of his hand.

He stared at Tanya without uttering a word until Tanya uttered,

"You know, you can't become a master of any activity just because you read the knowledge of such activity from somewhere. You have to practice this activity through errors and trials until it sticks into your mind and be a part of you."

"I was not the best fighter according to my father but I used to practice and train everyday tirelessly without wasting even a single second. I can say that I was a fool just like how my father said because it took me a longer time to master each move but that didn't stop me from trying and training until I became successful according to my father's standards." She paused for a moment and continued,

"It is just about time and being patient. Being impatient might bring about a certain failure, birth inner demons and fast is not always fast. Sometimes being slow is faster than being fast because a slow and meticulous person would not be impeded by failure as they took their time to bypass their flaws but a fast person would run through these flaws which might force them to come back to where they started so that they could start fixing their flaws one at a time but that would have already wasted much of their time which they wout have saved if they were clear and patient."

Tanya poured the wine in her cup into Virtya's cup and finally, she stared at him with an empty look and said,

"I am sorry. The taste of the wine doesn't go well with me."

Virtya gulped down the wine that Tanya had poured for him and then he grimaced before he coughed for some time.

He wiped the corners of his mouth with the sleeves of his shirt and then he stared at Tanya.

"Bu! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Well... Why am I laughing? Am I an idiot? Ok... I know why. Tanya... Wow. You remind me so much about my junior school teacher... What was her name again... Fuck! I don't even remember... It was a long time ago after all." Virtya saw that Tanya was now staring at him with a puzzled look and then he remembered that his predecessor didn't go to a junior school therefore, he quickly changed the topic,

"If you don't like the taste of the wine, then don't force yourself. But you make me want to look for a way to improve the taste of this wine so that it could taste better for you and you know what? After I finish this thing about the locomotives... I will build a brew industry just for you. I know the pain that you are feeling when you see other people enjoying their wine while you just stare at them. It also pains me you know." Virtya poured some wine for himself and gulped down.

"Tanya. You should know that we are different and its this difference that brings us together." Virtya's voice became soft and slow. 

"Well... I Know I am impatient but that is me, I can not change anything about who I am and I can not escape from these errors, but I am blessed to have you Tanya. Unlike me, you are patient and more normal and that is why I like you and envy you. You are not just a mere guard of mine but you are also a dear friend of mine."

Virtya nodded his head and shifted his gaze to the singer, he was embarrassed to look at Tanya's expressionless face.

"I am handsome... You are beautiful, 

I am lonely... You are a loner,

You are 'll goldly... You my lover."

"Tanya, what do you think about me, I am handsome, right?" Virtya asked after he finished singing along a few lines of the song that was being sang, but before Tanya could answer him, a knight walked to his side and said,

"Your majesty... It's about time." The knight moved aside revealing a plump 17 years old boy.

The boy was wearing a black suit just like the attendees and he had a serious expression plastered on his face.

Bogdan Falin, the plump 17 years old boy came from Dinky town and before the introduction of the education system, Bogdan owned the largest cereal store in Dinky town. It was not that Bogdan was born from a rich family but he was homeless at one time before he ventured into business where he started by selling a few kilos of grain until he expanded his business and right now, he owned the largest cereal store in Dinky town.

Bogdan was not just adept in running a store only and he had showed his muscle strength after he finished his education on business management just a week ago.

Through acting as a manager in a few selected agencies, Bogdan had shown that he could be trusted and that was why Virtya chose him.
