Marvel's Fantasia

On July 1938, 7, Cynthia's neighbor returned.Why do you want to mention this in particular?Because she always thought that the next door was an empty house, and in her memory, she had never seen the lights of the house over there turned on.

Anne didn't know who the neighbor next door was, but no matter who they were, they should go to say hello out of politeness.So, Cynthia came to the door with a freshly baked cake.

The person who opened the door was a woman who looked about 40 years old. When the other party saw Cynthia alone, she was very puzzled: "What's the matter with you?"

Cynthia gave the gift in her hand and said politely: "Hello, Ma'am, I live next door, your neighbor, I grew up here, this is the little cake I just baked, I give it to you to taste .”

The two families got to know each other that way, and Cynthia called her Mrs. Barton. She learned that the other party was an opera singer who had been working in Washington. This house was left by her parents and had not returned for more than ten years.

Mrs. Barton closed her theater this time because of poor management, so she decided to go back to New York to have a look.

The appearance of Mrs. Barton did not bring any changes to Cynthia's life. She still followed the usual routine, going to work-rest-going to work. Steve would come to see her occasionally, and the two of them just read books together, and their days were plain and warm .

On August 8, it was Cynthia's turn to rest. In fact, she didn't want to rest, and there was nothing wrong with going to work every day, because it was really boring during the rest. At this time, Cynthia was still dead on the bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze.

Time passed by little by little, she took a look at it and it was almost 9 o'clock, so she had to get out of bed to wash up, but after breakfast she sat on the balcony in a daze.

Look at the sky, it's too dazzling, look at the road, um, there's nothing to see, look at the grass, it's so green.

Cynthia, who had found something to do, came outside the house with the scissors, and cut the grass with a click.

"La la la~~~" A burst of singing faintly came from Mrs. Barton's house.The singing was beautiful, and Cynthia just stood in the garden and listened.

Mrs. Barton opened the door and saw Cynthia standing outside the door: "Cynthia, what do you want?"

Cynthia: "Good morning, Mrs. Barton, I was mowing the lawn in the garden just now, and I heard your singing, and thought it was very nice. I think I should come to compliment you."

Mrs. Barton was very surprised and felt that Cynthia was very sincere, so she welcomed her in.

This was Cynthia's first visit to Mrs. Barton's house. Cynthia was surprised when she saw the trophies and group photos on the cabinet. Was Mrs. Barton so powerful?

Mrs. Barton is not married. She has devoted most of her life to her favorite singing, frequent tours, and a rich and colorful artistic career. She has no time and energy to care about her emotional life. Of course, the most important thing is her There is no emotional need right now.

The two chatted until noon, and it was mostly Mrs. Barton who was talking about her experience. Cynthia's serious listening attitude made Mrs. Barton very helpful.When Cynthia was about to go home, she gave her two tickets and said, "This is my show ticket, you can come and see it when you have time."

The opera performance will start tomorrow, at [-]:[-] p.m. every Saturday and Sunday, and will last for two months. Tickets can be used as long as the performance is in progress.

Cynthia gave the ticket to Annie, but the other party said that he didn't like to listen to opera, and thought that Cynthia could go with Steve tomorrow night, and he would definitely accompany him.

But Cynthia didn't plan to go tomorrow, because she had already made an appointment with Steve to go to the cinema to watch a movie tomorrow night.But it also made it easier for her to send out the tickets.

On Sunday night, Steve and Cynthia went to the auditorium together.It was the first time Cynthia watched such a formal performance, and the hand holding Steve's arm was slightly tense.

Noticing her movement, Steve patted her hand reassuringly, and said, "Don't be nervous, just treat it as a school chorus performance."

After the performance, the two went backstage to wait for Mrs. Barton.Cynthia sent out the flowers she had been holding all along, and said, "Mrs. Barton, your performance is really wonderful."

Cynthia followed Mrs. Barton to the dressing room. Steve was a little embarrassed, and said to Cynthia that he was waiting outside.

Mrs. Barton smiled and asked, "You came to the show with your boyfriend?"

"Boyfriend?" Seeing that the other party misunderstood her relationship with Steve, Cynthia waved her hands repeatedly and explained: "No, no, no, we are just good friends. We have known each other since middle school."

Mrs. Barton smiled, she didn't think so, young and ignorant girls couldn't see it, but as someone who had experienced it, she could see the love in the eyes of boys when they looked at girls.But this is someone else's business, and she doesn't intend to interfere.

Mrs. Barton: "Cynthia, I see that you are very interested in acting, are you interested in giving it a try?"

Cynthia was surprised: "Me? It's better not to use it. I haven't learned singing specifically, so it shouldn't work."

Mrs. Barton said with a smile: "It's okay, I can teach you. I'm free tomorrow night, you can come to my house, I'll see your timbre."

Cynthia walked out of the performance hall to find Steve, and said excitedly, "Steve, do you know? Mrs. Barton is going to teach me to sing!"

Steve was also happy for her: "Really? Then you have to study hard and don't disappoint Mrs. Barton's teaching."

Cynthia nodded: "Yeah! I know!"
