A Neglected Boy    "The Twins" XXIX

jacoblion@tutanota.com

The story is told by either Jake or Kori in alternating Chapters

............. Unlike the tormenting miserable sun back home morning came
gracefully to our villa.  I slid from bed not waking Kori and stepped out
to the pool area.  I was greeted by the most beautiful sunrise backlighting
Mt. Vesuvius and Naples Bay undisturbed, as it slept so still and quiet in
the predawn light. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tpm1N6cKq-E

   I tiptoed quietly to Ethan's bedroom to find Kyle and Justin all
snuggled up to Ethan.  It was just past 5:30 and I felt so relaxed and
contented; it was a feeling of tranquility and calmness of being at peace.
I sat and watched Kori sleep his breathing slow and his face bathed in the
gentle warm sunlight as it made its way into the room.  Soon the image
became of Kori when he was just 11 and emotion overcame me and my eyes
swelled with tears of love.

   Just as I had slipped from the bed I slipped back in bed.  Kori turned
and hugged me tight and I again heard the words I so love to hear him say
. . . "I love you."  I drifted off to sleep Kori wrapped in my arms.  The
sun was kind and gentle but the rug-rats and Ethan were not!  It was just
past 7am and their loud jabbering, laughing, and giggling along with what I
imagine to be cannonballs hitting the water had abruptly torn Kori and me
from our sleep.

   Kori was first out the door to poolside.  For a second I thought he was
going to explode at the boys but instead to my surprise, he joined them.
It looked like morning fun so I closed the sliding glass door to join them
and then I heard that awful sound ...... "Click" ...... it was the sound of
the lock as the door closed.

   I panicked at first and then thought no problem I'll go through Ethan's
room ...... Oh, guess I won't it's locked too, rug-rat's room?  Nope.  Now
panic set in for real ...... Maria will be here at 8 and what will she find
but 5 naked people in a panic in the pool.  Kori looked at me and asked
. . . "Jake, the door isn't locked is it?"  Now my panic spread to Kori and
Ethan but the rug-rats didn't seem to get the picture.

   Love that Ethan, just got to love that boy as he quickly explained to
the rug-rats we were all locked out and Maria is on the way.  Now Panic!
Rug-rats looked at Kori and said . . . "She's gonna see us naked?  Can't
you open the door if you pull hard?" . . . .  Kyle and Justin began to look
around to see if there was a place to hide, it was kind of funny.  Then
........... saved here came Giorgio sliding door opened and 5 towels set
next to the diving board as he said . . . "I'll water the plants then clean
the pool "Signore" as he looked at me.

   Rug-rats started giggling followed by the rest of us then all out
laughter.  We all were wrapping towels around us and the laughter only last
2 minutes more when we heard Maria say quite loudly . . . "Oh!" . . .
which startled Ethan who nearly dropped his towel but now held with one
hand and pinned to his belly button.  Thankfully everything was covered.
Maria smiled a rather silly devilish type of smile and Ethan was fire
engine red.

   Maria asked if we would like to eat in the kitchen, dining room or by
the pool and it was unanimous ...... by the pool.  Breakfast was fresh
fruit, OJ, Coffee, espresso to be exact, milk and freshly baked pastry; no
tea.  It was plain to see that we would have to ask Giorgio how to speak to
Maria about our meals without hurting her feelings.

   Justin, Kyle, and Ethan kept saying . . . "Wow this is amazing the fruit
has real taste and the pastry is better than at home it's fresh.  Then
Kyle, big mouth, said . . . "Maria must have a cow the milk is good too."
Justin elbowed Kyle and said . . . "shut up Kyle that's rude she's trying
to make things special for us."  Ooooh, Justin the Knight in Shining
Armor. ...... Kyle actually apologized.  We all looked at Justin as he said
. . . "She's nice like a real Granma."  Ethan knew exactly what Justin was
saying and gave him a big hug and then we all ate more pastry.

   Today was our Naples exploring day.  Ethan, Kyle, and Justin wanted to
see the colorful small fishing boats and some kind of walking tour of the
part of Naples near where the cruise ships come in.  Kori thought it was
best to look at one or two quick videos of Naples so we could have a better
idea of what we would see.  Kori and Ethan made it into a game for Justin
and Kyle and decided to watch 2 videos each about 3 minutes and see if we
could spot the same things in the second video and what was
different. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1fTeG2B5Y3w Now if you like
rug-rats and boys in Speedos then
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-0vzaBj5c4

   The ideas Kori can come with are simply brilliant!  Two videos captured
everyone's attention and rug-rats were so excited to see the creepy stuff.
Of course who wouldn't want to see where dead people were buried; or
perhaps some 500-year-old child mummy.  What really excited Ethan was the
31 mummies of the Basilica of San Dominico Maggiore that date back to the
fourteenth century; not to mention "lost cities and ancient underworlds,
scandalous pleasure palaces, it's all about sex, a crime against love"
. . .  What happened to seeing the colorful boats? Hello, colorful boats.

   Breakfast finished, clothes changed and comfortable shoes and we were
just about to leave when the door chime rang.  Maria answered the door and
it was the lady and her two boys that lived in the next villa.  Maria asked
them in and introduced them. . . . . "Mr. Jake, Mr. Kori may I introduce
Alina our next door neighbor and her 2 boys Marco, the cute one, and
Lorenzo, the handsome one." . . . .  I shook hands and introduced Kyle,
Justin, and Ethan.  Alina said . . . "Oh what handsome boys and this boy
Ethan looks just like you."

   The rug-rats started giggling and Kori stepped right into it and said
. . . "Yes Ethan does look like Jake but actually he is the son of the
owner here Alina." ......  Alina looked at Ethan then at Jake then back at
Ethan and just smiled.

   I noticed our little rug-rats had been studying Alina's 2 boys and asked
. . . "Alina how old are your boys?"  . . .  Alina said, as she pushed the
cute one forward, . . . "Marco is 11, cute but a little, how you say
`Diavolo', ahhhhh you know `The devil' in him; and this one, Lorenzo, he
does nothing wrong as long as he's sleeping."

   I laughed but noticed the rug-rats had a twinkle in their eye and
Lorenzo had not taken his eye off Ethan.  We all politely shook hands and
invited them over for evening coffee and before anything else was said Kyle
said . . . "bring swimsuits" . . .  Alina and the boys left and we thanked
Maria for introducing them.  I asked Maria what is Alina's husband's name
and Maria said . . .  "Angelo but he is away in Brazil on business."  Kori
and I thanked Maria for all her help and asked if she could please have
some fruit and pastries for tonight.

   Again we thanked Maria and were off to explore Naples.  We weren't in
the Range Rover Sport one minute when Kyle, in a rather perturbed manner,
said . . . "I saw how Lorenzo was looking at you, Ethan." . . .  Ethan
replied . . .  "Forget it, Kyle, he was just looking at someone new that's
all." Then Kyle started . . . . "Well, I think he's ......."  Kori turned
and said . . . "Both of you stop `Now' and when they visit you will be
polite and friendly."

   I'm not even sure what just happened.  I was just driving but the
rug-rats must have noticed something that got by me when we were talking
back at the villa with Maria, Marco, and Lorenzo.  Kyle just sounded
jealous and I think I have heard that tone before.  Yes I know I have with
Kori, Peter, and Riku.

   As I drove down the tight narrow winding road toward the old section of
Naples things began to lighten up and giggles and chuckles were heard once
again.  The boys were pointing to all kinds of things they had never seen
like tires being changed right on the side of the road and little carts
with fruit and vegetables being pushed along by old men and women.  The
people looked happy and some were playing guitar or accordion and singing.

   Finally, we arrived at the cruise port where the big cruise ships come
in and some U.S. Navy ships.  We parked there for the day and the first
thing to catch the eye of the boys and Kori was Castel Nuovo a medieval
castle located in front of the Piazza Municipio and the city hall in
central Naples.  It's awesome said Justin and naturally it needed to be
explored.  Ethan was the tour guide and told us all about its size and that
it is one of the main architectural landmarks of the city built in
1279. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6XwFGkaFZAc

   While exploring the boys spotted a gold-colored dome just a few blocks
away and wanted that to be the next stop.  It was only a short walk to this
gold dome building called the Galleria Umberto .... that's right after
escaping from being killed by the traffic.  The boys were leading the way
and Kori and I noticed the continued closeness of "The Twins" to Ethan.
Kyle and Justin each holding Ethan's hands just as young brothers do
pulling him along with excitement.

   The boys were amazed at the enormous size of the mall.  The amount of
glass, the beauty of the floor and hundreds of shops of all kinds and sizes
were unbelievable.  Ethan found a guide in English and began to explain; it
made Kori smile and he turned to me and said . . . "remember?" . . . Kori
didn't need to say anything more.  Kori had done the same thing a hundred
times in so many different places.  It was his love for history and
adventure that always made every trip so special when he was a boy.

   Ethan started . . . "rug-rats pay attention ...... this is a public
shopping mall and look straight down that way it's the San Carlo opera
house and it's just across the street.  Can you believe they built this
between 1887 and 1891 and it was like really important here in Naples?  It
was named after Umberto I, the King of Italy at the time of construction.
The Galleria ..... Justin interrupted . . . . "Ethan read it later we're
hungry let's find some place to eat."  . . . .  "Ok, Ok but you know this
is a World Heritage Site" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSvkO-y1EJA Ethan
continued while being dragged along by the rug-rats.

   Justin and Kyle were leading the expedition and as we walked toward one
of the entrances the aroma of fresh baked pizza got stronger and stronger
and rug-rats were moving Ethan faster and faster.  Soon we walked up two
steps and into the most amazing pizzeria.

    Wood fired ovens with only the best pepperoni, homemade sauce and the
finest olive oil.  We all ordered small pepperoni and cheese pizza and ate
it like the locals folding it in half.  The olive oil was running down our
arms and the Coca-cola was better than back in Connecticut.  Kyle and
Justin kept hugging Ethan and saying . . . "you been a good boy Ethan eat
more." Kori and I sat and watched the love pour from our little Korean boys
as they continued to worship their older brother.

   The afternoon ended with a walking tour of the area.  Rug-rats and Ethan
were first to discover the outdoor market at Piazza Antignano.  Kori and I
rounded the corner and were relieved to see that Ethan had grabbed Kyle and
Justin and they were waiting for us to catch up.  I had forgotten how
enormous this place was and I think it had grown much bigger than I
remembered.

   Kori walked over to Ethan and I heard him say . . . "Ethan please don't
let go of `The Twins' this place is so immense they'd get lost in a
second." . . .  Kyle turned looked at Kori and said . . . "come on we're
not babies Dad."  The expression on Kori's face was priceless when Kyle
called him "Dad". I was having one of the best days of my life.

   The market at Piazza Antignano is one of the most popular local markets
in Naples and is less touristic than others in the city.  The market is
also one of the richest for the concentration of loads of different stands.
I told the boys that I remembered when I was a student and visited here I
was told that anything you want can be found here even a tank or a bazooka.
Justin looked at Ethan and Kyle and I heard him say . . . "he likes to
exaggerate."  And the three were laughing till they turned the corner and
spotted a whole section of military weapons including a large land combat
vehicle.

   Justin turned and looked at me with his mouth hanging open and pointing
at this thing.  I said . . . "wanna buy it?" we were all laughing as we
walked over to take a closer look.  This is the right place to go and
breathe the Neapolitan attitude to street selling.  Best selection of
trendy clothes, local food, and, if you need fine shoes this is the place.
We were getting tired and the boys were in need of a drink and a little
snack. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rwVWExVkd4

   On the way back to the Range Rover the boys were sounding a little
excited about having Marco and Lorenzo over for fun and games in the pool.
Kori said . . . "Jake this is the best work vacation I've ever had.  I
can't wait to get to meet the rest of the team and Dr. Guermandi.  I
spotted Dr. Sue Alcock's name from Brown on the list and it will be so good
to see her again.  I have to thank her for all she has done for me."

   We arrived back at the Rover and were out in the crazy traffic.  Horns
were blowing, people screaming at each other, tires squealing and
screeching and two cops blowing their whistles that did no good at all.
The back seat was very quiet and Kori turned only to find all three boys
sound asleep.

   We arrived back at the villa to find Maria had prepared a beautiful
fresh fruit setting and fresh pastries for this evening.  She asked if Kori
and I would like her to stay and serve but we thought that would be an
imposition after all she had already done for the evening.  Maria thanked
Kori and I and again said she would be back at 8am to prepare breakfast.

   We all showered and freshened up and the boys were in their best shorts
with swimsuits underneath.  At 7pm Alina, Marco, the cute one, and Lorenzo,
the handsome one, arrived.  Alina was in a very beautiful summer dress and
the boys were in shorts much like the twins and Ethan.  We all talked about
the day and what we all enjoyed most.  For Kori and I it was one thing and
for the boys completely different things,

   When Lorenzo heard we had been at Piazza Antignano he asked Ethan
something and I noticed Ethan turn slightly more than pink.  Then Lorenzo
asked if they could all go swimming.  Kori looked at the boys and said
. . .  "That's what the pools for."  Alina, Kori and I watched all 5 boys
as they walked closer to the edge of the pool and dropped their
shorts. Marco and Lorenzo had their fingers in their Speedos as if they
were going to drop them too when .......... Alina sharply said . . . "NO!
you're not at home you're guests."

   Kori and I looked at Alina as the boys dove in the pool and then she
explained . . . . . "I'm sorry my boys were rude, they don't wear bathing
suits when at home or when with some of their friends, I'm embarrassed."
. . . . Kori and I smiled and I said . . . . "Alina, please it is Ok;
Ethan, Justin, and Kyle never wear swimsuits either." .......  Alina was so
relieved and Kori said I'll tell them it's Ok and called Ethan.  Kori
whispered to Ethan that if they wanted to swim naked it was Ok.

   Two minutes later Alina, Kori and I were laughing as we saw 5 Speedos
fly through the air and land poolside.
