Chapter 106 Desires Ii
- I wondered what a 15-year-old girl who had everything money could buy would ask for in a wishing lake. I looked at her, so downcast, nervous, worried about my condition, and I realized that although the Dulevskys had all the money in the world, we lacked the presence of our mother. We were orphans with a living mother and although our father was a wonderful guy, he always worked too much. I still had our mother present during my childhood and adolescence, even if she never made a gesture of affection or even gave me advice. But Élida was raised by her nanny. Had my sister asked our mother never to look for her again? Or perhaps that Ágatha would regret leaving her one day? What if he had wanted his mother to come back and ask for forgiveness and try to make up for lost time? After all, for me it was already too late to resume that mother and son relationship ... But Élida was still 15 years old.
- - And you? – Élida looked at Maria Eduarda – What did you ask for?
- Maria Eduarda looked at me and blushed, opening her mouth but not being able to say anything.
