Treinta días de tu vida
Day 27
Many years ago you got an informal
job. It was the first time you began to make money on your own and you
felt proud of it. Things, however, were not as easy as they seemed to be
at the beginning. The big guys started to bully you. Then Beto appeared
and he became your defender. He was always dealing with the thugs and
you felt protected. Your work and money were safe. You grew some inches
after some years and you needed Beto nomore. Then you left your job and
moved to continue with your studies. Whenever you had the opportunity,
you visited town and talked to Beto. You two always remembered those
days when Tioto and his gang bullied you and you also told Beto that it
had been thanks to him that you had survived. In one of your visits to
town, you received bad news: Beto had died. You could not believe it. He
had been you greatest friend, your defender and also your mentor.
Nobody had told you because they knew you would leave everything you
were doing to come back and go to his funeral. When you heard the news
you remained quiet for some minutes and after that you headed to the
cemetery. You spent the whole afternoon having a long conversation with
him in his grave and after that day you visit always visited two graves:
Miguel's and Beto's.
