Jazz and Lyra play hide-and-seek

                                                                                 

Jazz and Lyra play hide-and-seek

Today is Easter Day! 

Listen up! It’s the Emmanuel, the big bell of the cathedral, ringing for the beginning of the egg hunt!

Lyra made herself beautiful this morning. She’s dressed as Esmeralda, in a magnific red gypsy dress. She’s making noise with her castanets! Clac, clac, clac! 

                                                

As soon as she gets into the cathedral, she goes up the stairs to the great organ. How impressive it is, with its 5 keyboards! 

           

Maybe an egg is hidden in the big pipe?

Lyra climbs it and falls into it! She is stuck, it is dark, she is afraid!

She calls mom : “Mom, mom, mom, mom”. It’s echoing all over the cathedral. 

That’s when Jazz comes in. He’s got his little suit and his bow tie. He hasn’t forgotten his Phoebus sword!

He hears Lyra. Immediately, he runs up the stairs. He feels like a horseman on his way to rescue his princess! 

He climbs so high that he reaches the top of the tower, among the gargoyles. 

Next to the big bell, there is the biggest chocolate egg he has ever seen! 

He sits down and he eats it. What a greedy boy! Yummy, yummy!

Meanwhile, inside the organ, Lyra sneaked like air out of the pipe. From the balcony, she sees a lot of people down there, it’s funny! But where is her friend Jazz? Hasn’t he arrived yet? Do you know where he is?

To wait for him, Lyra has an idea: she’s going to go downstairs to dance with her castanets (clac, clac, clac!) in front of the door of Notre-Dame. He’ll arrive eventually! Her brown curls shine in the sun. 

From up there, Jazz can see her. He shouts, “I’m coming, I’m coming, I’m coming, I’m coming.” It rings out to Lyra’s ears. 

He finishes his chocolate and runs down as fast as he can. 

But where is Lyra? She’s gone!

Huh! Behind him, Jazz hears the castanets! Clac, clac, clac! 

He turns around: “Lyra!” Oh, no, it was only Mom’s heels… 

Jazz feels like crying… 

His mom takes him by the hand and takes him inside. 

But who’s on the bench? How nice! It’s Lyra eating… some… chocolate…
