SECRET WEDNESDAY
As a child, I felt like an orphan even though I had both my parents. And as it's usual with children
like that, I was always looking for an adoptive mother or father. One day I knew the wife
of one of my father's colleagues. Her name was Daisy. Daisy was a beautiful young woman,
she had long golden hair and very pretty brown eyes. She was pregnant at that time,
and it was possible to say that the baby would not take long to be born looking at her belly's size.
She also had a small son, that was very spoiled, but a good boy. I don't know if it was her pregnancy
or the way that she treated her son, or even her way of being that called my attention.
Soon I discovered that her house was exactly behind ours, so to arrive there it only took to walk around
the city block. But next to my house there was an empty land, so I could go quicker by there.
That poor woman didn't know she would be my adoptive mother, hehehe...
So once she went to my house and asked me to visit her. That was all that I wanted!
On the next day, I was at her door, offering myself to help her at home. I could see it was not easy
to take care of a small child and a house with that huge belly. So she invited me to come back
on the next day, and then on the next, and the next, and then going to her house to spend the afternoons
became a habit to me. I only waited for her husband to leave home after lunch to put my feet there.
I didn't like him much and I had the feeling that he would not feel happy in seeing me at his house.
So I used to leave earlier before he came back home.
I helped Daisy to take care of her small child and took things from high or low places to her.
She always treated me with much love, she talked to me, asked me about school, and about any boy I
could be in love with. She used to make cakes and biscuits for me. Daisy knew how to draw wonderfully
and how to paint, so sometimes she made me drawings on my notebooks, that I very proudly showed off
to my friends at school. They were so beautiful and friends loved them too. But only I got to have them ^_^
One day I had a fight with a schoolgirl. She was my natural enemy and at that moment we were on a
construction site and she was with her cousins around her. I was alone. So she started to call me names
and I got furious and took the construction sand that was around me and threw it on her. As she was a very
delicate girl, she took a brick in her hands and threw it to my head. And I had never seen so much blood.
She just ran away with her cousins and instead of going to my home, I went to Daisy's. Daisy took care of
me. She called a doctor that she knew and he arrived in a hurry. My head was bleeding very much,
so she washed my head, made it clean and the doctor sewed my head with my own hair threads,
and I got fine. Daisy was an angel to me.
Even though I thought our friendship was good and special, I always could perceive a bit of sadness there
deep inside her eyes, but I never dared to ask her about it. She was an adult, and these were not places
where children should go.
One day Daisy told me they were moving to another city, which made me sad because I would not be able
to visit my friend/mother anymore. So she kissed me, wished me luck and never more I saw her.
After she had already left, my mother said to me, "You should have never gone to her house".
So I asked why, and she said to me, "Daisy hated women from our state. Once, she and her husband had moved there, he got a lover when she was pregnant with her first child.
She could never recover from that and always talked about her hate for women."
So only at that moment, I could understand that unhappiness in her eyes.
My God, I imagine how it may have been hard for that woman to tolerate me every day at her home.
To look at me and to remember the cheating. But she never ever let me know. She always had a smile and a hug for me. And always took care of me as a daughter. She was always gentle and lovely. Looking back,
I wish I had the power to take out that suffering from her heart and to give her a better husband. She was a
very special woman, and I will always keep her memories in my heart.
