Tears of suffering

It was a cold day in Madrid. Margarita woke up quickly, she had to get dressed to go to work. It was 6 of the morning and she had to wake up her children's.

"Pablo" she screams,

"What" he replied.

"You have to wake up your brothers to go to school",

"okay," said to his mother.

She opens the front door in a hurry and let in the cold wind from outside.

"Juanito wakes up you have to go to the school," he told him with a sweet voice.

"Okay, brother," said with sleep.

Pablo helps dress Juanito and the other brother. They went to the street and they wait for the public bus. Margarita finally arrived at her job it was the fourth time of the week that she was late.

"Do you know what time it is?" said her boss with an angry voice,

"Sorry boss I don't have a car so I travel by public bus," she said with regret.

"I don't care if you have a car or not, you have to come early to work" He was red like a tomato.

"Is the last time I will come late boss". She ran quickly inside, she takes out the jacket and she hangs it on the hook. Pablo, Juanito, and pedro study in the school, La Prospe. It was lunch time for the three brothers. Is a school for poor students, they don't provide lunch. Pablo had prepare sandwiches for him and his brothers. Every time they eat in the last table because they don't have friends. Carlos goes to the table where the brothers are with an evil face.

"Ha,Ha, HA, HA, here are the brothers that don't have a father." Carlos was smiling. Suddenly Pedro and Juanito start crying,

"Look you made my brothers cry," said Pablo furious.

"Is the truth you don't have a father" Carlos said it again. Pablo was going to hit him but he thought it was not worth hitting someone who doesn't feel the pain of losing his father. He went with his brothers to the bathroom.

"Don't cry brothers" Pablo's face looked like he wanted to cried.

"Why they laugh of our lost brother," Pedro said to Pablo,

"He doesn't know what he says". The brothers return to their classes they were discouraged and sad without wanting to do anything. 2:30 pm classes are over, The brothers take the bus to go back to their house. 2 hours later the mother returned to her house. She was tired of the hard work but she keeps her smile. Right away the mother baked a delicious paella.

"Thank You, mother, for everything" they ran upstairs to do their homework. After a long day, the three boys went to sleep. Margarita decides to go to sleep too. Next day Margarita had a bad fever that she can't move out of the bed. Pablo went to his mother room because he didn't hear her walk by the room like every day.

"Mother you have a fever" Pablo was worried about his mother.

"I can't go to work today son" she was preoccupied.

"I can talk to your boss and tell him that you can't go to work today". Pablo wanting to help his mother.

"Yes please," Margarita responded by stuttering. Pablo picked up the phone and he called his mother's boss.

"Hello," The boss said.

"Hi I am calling because Margarita can't go to work today" His heart was pounding fast. "Tell mother that she is fired. I told her the if she was absent or late again I was going to fired her" He answered with a cruel voice. The boy hung up and looked up with sadness to his mother.

"He fired me right," said disappointedly.

"Yes, mother" Pablo starts to cry.

"Everything is going to be fine" Tries to cheer him up.

"Son go to the pharmacy and bought something for the fever" she didn't look good. Pablo put on his jacket and when to the pharmacy that is one block away of their home. He came back and he helps his mother. Pablo and the other brothers didn't go to school. Pablo put a wet towel on her forehead.

"Thanks for taking care of me son" she was sleepy.

"No problem mom" he answers with pride. Time passed The mother had months looking for a job. One day they were eating when they knocked on the door.

"Sorry for bothering you but you owe me 2 months of rent," he says seriously.

"Excuse me but I don't have money to pay you" Responds with sadness.

"You have one week to pay me the rent or otherwise you would have to move somewhere else," he said mercilessly.

"Please let me stay" Margarita insisted

"No," He said firmly. He left, Margarita was in shock as if she had seen a ghost. The children come together with their mother.

"Is everything alright?" They asked worriedly.

"Yes everything is alright, don't worry" She responds faking a smile. Margarita didn't know where to go to live. "Children pack your clothes in suitcases were going to live in another place," said the mother. The kids didn't ask, they obeyed their mother. They walked and walked for a long time. "Here it is our new home!" scream.

"Mother this house is ugly," said Pablo with displeasure.

"Sorry kids but we have to live here because we don't have money we are extremely poor" It was a little house with holes everywhere impossible that the house does not cool. They left the school and started selling candy on the streets. They are hard times for the family but they don't give up.

"Pedro your sweating" his voice sounded preoccupied.

"Son you have a fever" The mother starts crying. "Pablo where are you going" Her mother screams with tears.

"I am going to ask for money on the streets to help my brother" Responds with tears too. He was asking every person on the streets but they didn't give him money. "Can you help me with a coin sir?" He asks with kindness.

"Move you, dirty boy," He said with contempt.

"Please, my brother is dying" "I don't ask much just some money" He was telling him desperately.

"No". The man keeps walking and does not care about Pablo's suffering. Tired of asking for help he doesn't know how to help his brother. He decides to go back crying as hard as he cans. Sees the church and decides to enter to pray. He kneels in front of the image of Jesus.

"Jesus, I only came to ask you to save my brother" he said crying quietly. He stayed a long time praying. He ran out of the church wiping away tears. Suddenly, as he is walking a nice dressed man with a briefcase runs into the boy and he drops the briefcase. Pablo lifts the briefcase but when he looks back the men were gone. He opens the briefcase and was full of 100 dollar bills. He looked at the sky and he sees like an angel flying.

"Thank you, god, thank you". When back to his home he told everything to his mother. Then they went to the hospital and they cure his brother. With the money the mother put his own business she put a beauty salon. Now the kids go to a private school And they eat the best food of the best restaurants in Madrid.
