Hot legs

"Then why insist on it?" There is no reason for us to continue to argue about this. - said Bernard. "And if it doesn't work out?" - Asked Helen. — I have a warm back, at the top, my uncle is the Director's right-hand man. Relax woman, this job is mine. Soon, we will be living in the city. Trust in me. - said Bernard. It was in this way that Adriana's parents, still young, left the village where they were born and grew up, and moved to the city, with the push of the said hot coasts. Adriana is the third child of Bernardo and Helena. She was born at a very turbulent time in the couple's life. Bernardo was without a job, and Helena, with her salary as a servant, had to pay all the expenses of the house. Let's start from the beginning: Bernardo and Helena were not in love, when they got married, also, at that time, most marriages were made by decision of the elders. The couple learned to like each other with coexistence. Bernardo worked like a salesman in a*****e, which made him a good match in the area. Soon after they were married, Helena became pregnant and they had their first child, Alex. The following year, Bernardo got another job. He was hired as a*****e clerk in a chain of pharmacies, so they moved to the city, as he already had a reasonable salary, for their social level, they managed to rent a little house. With luck, months later, Helena got a job as a servant in a plastic bag factory. With the couple's income, they had a not-so-low social life, almost on the cusp of average. Two years later, they were awarded a daughter, Cecília. After three years, they had another son, Isac. Bernardo and Helena worked, they didn't earn much, but they were able to take care of their children and the house. Then they had Adriana, a sweet girl, glowing since the day she was born. The girl caught the attention of all the midwives and other mothers in the maternity ward, she was so beautiful. Lucky or unlucky, she even looked a little different from the other members of the family, because she was unique, slightly lighter. In the year Adriana was born, Bernardo got involved in a scheme with colleagues, ended up being expelled and lost all rights. They didn't have the money to pay for a little school for Adriana, but she was so dear that they accepted her entering the little school at the church, as a beneficiary. And it was magnificent, because at the age of three, Adriana knew all the letters and numbers. Interestingly, at the age of four, she already knew how to read and write, as if she were a third-class student. It was interesting to see how, at that age, Adriana read newspapers. “That girl has an accelerated processor. - Some said. “She must be gifted. How can a four-year-old know the sum table?! - Others said. His brother Alex, gave his parents a lot of headache, didn't like to study, was involved in groups of dubious conduct; he failed twice in tenth grade, then dropped out of school for two years. He got involved in trouble, his parents gave him an ultimatum, that to live with them, he had to go back to school. So it took her three years to make the tenth grade. He started the eleventh, and soon became involved in another noise: he got a girl from a neighboring neighborhood pregnant. When families forced him to marry, he ran away. He didn't show up for months, he only came back when his daughter was born. Full of aggression, he said he was not going to get married. His mother forced him to work, so he went to work at a gas station as a car cleaner so he could help support his daughter. Cecília was a closed girl, she seemed to be quite serious, she had no problems at school, or with relationships with other people, but there was something that drew a lot of attention to her: she was a person without ambition, without motivation, without ideas, without focus. , even without dreams. For years, Bernardo didn't have a steady job, he did odd jobs, with nothing fixed, and in a few months, he couldn't earn anything. Helena held the family, they had many arguments, because Bernardo couldn't get anything, and what he managed to spend on drink, at least, that's what Helena believed. Adriana, already in second grade, was called to a group of children who represented the city, reading the messages on commemorative dates. Whenever there was a ceremony at the school, Adriana was called to represent the school, because, in addition to being intelligent, she was beautiful. “It's the teachers' darling. - Said colleagues. She dropped out in fifth grade. It is not known if she was due to the occupations, or the problems they faced, but the girl did not have any praise. Nobody congratulated her, she didn't get anything, not a hug, not a kiss from any member of her family. Everyone in her house was so busy with their own problems that they didn't have time to look after little Adriana. Children need attention, they need frequent monitoring, many parents end up blinding themselves only in their problems, and they forget that those they have put in the world, need attention. When children have not deserved this attention, they need to have character, not to deviate and stay focused, always to stay on the right tracks, or they end up being sidetracked by the illusions of the world.
