Red Thread of Fate

Maria Cecilia

I've been studying at Colégio Santa Inês since I was a little girl, my mother who always woke up with everything even though she worked hard, preferred to pay for my studies by fulfilling her dream of being a hairdresser, but when I was little we would never be able to open a business of our own because it wasn't just the course but materials, products, employees and not to mention the clientele since we didn't know many people in the city

It was me, my mother who always supported me in anything and everything I wanted to do, my father who was always a problem in our lives as he has a drinking and gambling problem, my grandmother who always made it very clear that I am the least loved granddaughter in the family

And we also had João Paulo who was my brother who I had the most responsibilities in life, I took care of him a lot so that our mother could work and support us with good studies and all the good and the best that she could give us, but God called him early , I mean, some bastard hit him on the way home from school

I only had a few abrasions, but my brother wasn't so lucky, I tried to pull him to the other side so that at least he wouldn't get hurt, but it was so fast that I couldn't do it in time.

My brother had several fractures all over his body and was in a coma for many months, at first we took him to a public hospital, but the driver who hit him ordered a lawyer to come the next day to look for us and offer all the treatment for my brother.

- Flashback -

- Good afternoon! I'm Dr Carlos Parada and I'm a lawyer for the client who ran over João Miguel Reis, he gave me carte blanche to transfer his son to a private hospital where he will pay all the expenses

Blanca – There is no need, sir, and I sincerely hope that your client is sorry after running over an innocent child because he was drunk.

Dr Carlos Parada – He is! That's why he said that I would only leave here with the transfer of the boy to the best hospital

Blanca – Well then, you'll be stuck there for the rest of your years, have a good time! - she said turning his back.

Maria Cecília – Mom, think about it! We know how public hospitals are, today they have doctors and tomorrow they don't, and not to mention how are we going to pay for medicine?

Blanca – That won't get your brother out of his coma Maria Cecília!

Maria Cecília – That's why mom, let's do this for him!
