1982: Hillo city, for matters related to my work, I went to some offices where my appointment was within 3 hours. I walked around looking for a place where I could wait that long.
I decided to go to a very popular park in that city, despite the probable early hour at 2:30 pm there were a lot of people, children playing, the paleteros were doing their good sale.
Small groups of young people and adults walked through the groves of the park, the afternoon was pleasant neither cold nor hot. I was walking looking for a place to sit and watch the children play and watch people go by to distract myself and let the time pass quickly, looking for a well-shaded bench and continue walking through the park.
Look at that !! A well-dressed woman with a pleasant appearance, sitting upright on her right back, as if she was leaning on something, but it was not like that she did not touch the back of the bench.
I arrived and sat down on the other side of the bench. Her attitude attracted my attention a lot, it seemed something strange at first glance, her attitude like a challenge! Her chin up and her gaze up from hers .
As if looking between the sky and the top of a hill that looked far away, without being able to avoid it. I watched her, and she didn't look at me, she didn't move! Her pose and her attitude did not attract people's attention, no one stopped to look at her, each one of her world.
But I did not stop looking at her. Her eyes were big dark black around her, she was a very beautiful woman !! but her gaze was incomprehensible, it was not ice, nor was it indifferent, it was deep and without expression, it was admirable how she could keep her body straight and his gaze without departing from a single point.
At times it seemed that her gaze was an infinite sadness, something that seemed to bite her in life, without expression, without a gesture without turning to see me so the first hour passed, I was restless! I kept looking at her thinking that it could be what was happening to have it in that state.
Until I dared to speak, first I offered to buy her a water, a fruit scrape, she didn't answer me at all, she didn't even look at me, apparently it didn't bother her that I looked at her so much, her look worried me, there was no life there, no expression !! Just that deep unfathomable gaze like a deep abyss.
I do not know what happened in me that I felt the need to tell her something to try to help her, for me it was seriously disturbing to look at her in that state (I was a young girl) my little experience did not help me much to know how to help her.
Until I finally could say something to him no matter if he looked at me oh no, I began to talk to him, sweetly asking questions that I never answered where he lived? If he needed help? And nothing did not move a muscle in his face slightly moved his body as a way of rest As time went by, mine was already anguish that I would leave and leave her alone and without knowing how and from where I got words, I began to speak telling her what I imagined the most common according to me
What if she was like this for a love for a betrayal a deception etc ...
Do not stop talking or looking at her advice! I used everything as guessing what was happening to her, for that, 2 hours or more has passed and I speaking I think I put in my all my desire to help her to protect her in some way against the pain that I guessed at it.
I dared to take her hand, and I did not reject her, only she left her hand in mine and I did not stop speaking gently with patience, with the best of good intention to help.
In a moment that I wanted to happen, she turned to see me slowly without sobbing, serene but from her eyes ran a spring of serene sweet crying !! I was impressed by the look of her already with more life with more expression !! And she told me.
What do you know? You don't know anything !! He stood up and looked at me and fixed his gaze on the same point again, he murmured something to someone and left, I went to the place where he had gone, everything worked out for me, I took the bus home, and I don't know why I was crying. almost all the way, in silence with the look that he gave me before leaving engraved in my mind.
As something painful and cruel that a human being can live .a beautiful girl .bites in life ..
