- I told you before Miriam! You have to be more careful! I can't lose more money with you.
- But B, I promise you... it was an accident... I...
- Nothing! You can't go on destroying the things that I pay for with MY work. Your only job is attending Olga and me, nothing else. How can you make it so difficult?
- If you need help, I can do it! I can find a job and...
- Please, listen to you, You... "looking for a job"? Sure!
- Why can't you believe it?
- Because you didn't finish college.
- I studied more than you.
- Yes, but I'm a man, a real man and you... you are Miriam. Everything you are, everything we have is because of me. If it were up to you, you would still be living at your parents' expense and splashing around in the water.
- Do not bring my father into this, you know that... he is already dead.
- I've to be brave... I've to be brave. - The little blond girl cried so hard, trying to ignore the fight outside her room. - Why do I have to be so alone?
- Stop Miriam! I'm tired of you, of your complaints, your uselessness, you should be thankful that I'm still married to you and that I take care of everything myself.
- I could do it... if you give me a chance. - Her tears fell from her eyes.
- Oh, sure you can, so well as you destroyed my car. It's a miracle that my princess Olga was ok.
- But I want a job...
- Listen to me... some people are born with light, to share with the world, just like me and my emporium, while others, like you, well just survive to live with people like me.
- I've to do something to stop the fight between mommy and daddy... but, what can I do? - She asked for herself.
- Wait a minute. - The man stood up from the sofa and took a paper in his hands.
- It's Olga's school report. - The woman sighed in surrender and wiped away the tears that had soaked her cheeks.
- She only got A +... she's a genius.... just like me! I told you Miriam, she was born with her light. Olga, honey, come here!
- OMG, asked me to go.... - She sighed with fear and felt his heart pounding. - I'm coming dad!- She screamed, opened the door and she went down the stairs to the living room.
- I'm here daddy... Am I in trouble?
- Of course not, you finally did it! Only A +.
- Congratulations my dear. Her parents enveloped her in a big hug and a shower of kisses.
- Are you happy?
- Sure my girl, how could your daddy be angry with a good daughter like you!
- So... are you happy... for me?
- Sure honey, I've got an idea B. Can we have dinner out, tonight?
- That's a good idea Miriam. I'm coming for the keys.
- That is the secret... made them proud of me... I'll do it... I'll make you feel so proud... It's a promise!
