12. Your thoughts...
You say words to me,
words that get together.
They are letters, words, ideas, thoughts.
Where do they come from?
Where do they go?
They are inside my mind, in my heart, in my life, in my
language.
They go to you, to him, to us, to everyone.

16. When I started the English
classes, I was thinking about
abandoning them because I
found them very difficult. But
when I saw my classmates I left
those ideas because they gave
me strength to continue,
especially Mercedes. She is a
wonderful woman and a great
example to follow. I love my
class.

17. Suddenly, you
arrived at my life. I
saw you and I only
could say: "Hi,
Noíta; Hi, Noíta¡". I
broke to cry.
Then, I learnt the
real meaning of
loving a daughter.
After that,
everything changed.
During those
months I did many
things: I bought
some curtains, I
went to the
swimming pool, I
painted the
bedroom,...I built up
myself and my
house.
But how do I
prepare my heart?

I was walking in a shady street when I saw it. Its big and yellow eyes stared at

in the dark of the night.

TV and I watched a
programme where Spanish
men and Peruvian women
got married. I did not
believe it, I thought that
it was false.
However, one day I was
chatting on internet and I
began to chat with a boy.
He was Spanish.
Today that boy is my
husband, so now I could say
that it was true.

20. The Doubt
The light took hold of my space, the warmth
of the water that surrounded me was replaced
by hugs, the sounds once far became closer
and the laughter that made me jump for joy
now was accompanied by the smell that
permeated my body and I felt so happy. There
was no doubt, ...I was born.

My heart is divided between the place thay I born and place that I
