Mr. Cannelloni's Circus

Then, to his relief, Madame Rosita seemed to calm down. She wrapped her arms around her husband, and they sat down together on the pier. Pleased by what he saw, Budo nodded and continued his way up to the camp. Whatever was wrong, the Cannelloni Circus would surely make it through this adversity somehow. It always had. Cannelloni’s father, grandfather, and great-grandfather had experienced hardships too. “You should’ve told me sooner,” Madame Rosita said after Mr. Cannelloni had given her a detailed account of the circus’s state of affairs. “At first I wanted to spare you from worrying,” Mr. Cannelloni explained. “Later, after things had really taken a nosedive, I was too scared to tell you.” “But my darling Ernesto, you’ve been like a rabbit that sticks its head in a bush and waits for the trouble to pass. You know very well that’s not the way to deal with things,” Mrs. Cannelloni went on. “The situation calls for clearheaded thinking. We must immediately draw up a rescue plan.” 30
Back at the circus camp, Rosita went into her wagon and fetched a notebook. On the cover, she wrote in large artistic letters: The Rescue Plan for the Circus. On the first page, she wrote, Assessment of the Situation. Rosita decided she would start by interviewing the key persons at the circus. Her husband had given her a lot of important information, but she needed to investigate further. Budo knew every nut and bolt of the circus equipment and devices; Chef Andrei could tell her about things that worried the crew; and the snake woman, Cleopatra, had an almost mystical connection with the animals of the circus. Rosita would definitely need to hear what they had to say. But the clowns, Victor and Hugo, she would skip. They would just give her two-syllable answers and keep sighing and looking at each other. The Pommer Boys and The Flying Cosmonauts were also impossible to interview because Rosita didn’t know any Polish or Russian. 31
