Treinta días de tu vida

Day 18

Miguel was one of the homeless in town. He had dark skin and had a shaved head. Everybody used to say that he was crazy. But you and your family believed the opposite because he used to help you with some home chores. He used to take you to school and in the afternoon he helped your father in his shop. When he was not in your house or with your father, he would go to the countryside just to have a walk. He always carried a machete with him but he used it only when he was in the fields. When it was evening, he disappeared and returned the following day. You witnessed this routine for many years until you were an adolescent. One day you left town and moved to another city. In one of your visits, your mother was talking to you and you asked for Miguel. Your mom said he had died but nobody knew about it. Somebody announced that the police had found him in the countryside under a tree. He had no injuries or any other sign of being killed by someone else. Your mom said with a breaking voice "poor Miguel, only a few people went to his funeral." You looked for his grave yard but never found it that’s why you always left flowers under a tree.
