One Apple A Day #16
“Brangelina? They called you Brangelina?”
“Yes, you know, magazines needed fancy words to sell more copies”
“Magazines? What are you talking about granny?”
“Oh dear, the world has changed too much for this old lady. A magazine is like a website but printed on paper.”
“Why? You didn’t have tablets?”
“Oh darling. Yes, but at that time we loved to have things on paper. You’ll learn about it as soon as you start school.”
“Oh. Brangelina. Brangelina. Brangelina. It’s funny.”
“Yes, it’s not so bad. I didn’t like it at that time but it’s funny now.”
“Can I say that a table with the chairs is a chable?”
“Of course! Funny isn’t it?”
“I love it! Mom, mom, there’s a chable in our kitchen!!”
She ran to her mom, wobbly but fast on her short legs. Angelina watched her until she left the room. Thinking at her “brangelina” season was still painful even if in the last years she made some peace with her past.
“Mom, can I have a bluethie?”
“What’s a bluethie, honey?”
“It’s a blueberry smoothie, but bluethie is a lot more funny. It’s like Brangelina!”
“Did you disturb your grandmother again?”
Angelina was smiling. “I want a bluethie” she thought.
