My beloved Fatima is the one being harmed by me, and when I want to kick them out of my house, I am suddenly kidnapped and they tried to murder me.
This is really bad, very, very bad.
I fall asleep thinking about all this. I wake up, and everything is clearer, it seems like it's day and yesterday was already night, I sit up heavily and see a spectacle worthy of admiration. There is a tall man with a heart-stopping physique, he puts on a palera and on top of it a coat, he is really spectacular, I don't even know what I'm thinking, but I got distracted, I just wanted to tell him that as soon as I can stand up and walk naturally, I would leave, I had deviated from the objective a little.
"Goo…, good morning, I…, I want to thank you, as soon as I can stand up and walk more steadily I'll leave, I don't want to bother you," I say and he glances at me and only nodded before leaving, it's really true that he doesn't want to talk to me, if I hadn't heard him talk to me yesterday, I would say he's mute, very mute.
He left, after snuggling under those delicious furs, I set out to find something to eat, my head is still pounding.
On the small table near a makeshift kitchen, there is a plate with fried eggs and some bread, I was really starving and I ate it, I didn't know if he had left it for me, but hunger endures scolding, so I ate it.
I spent the day like that. That guy never came back and it was scaring me, I put water to boil, I wanted to make a soup, there were some vegetables and they looked magnificent, so when I was about to start my culinary adventure, the man came in through the door, and threw a large piece of raw meat in the small room, it looked like the leg of some deer or something.
I gave an absurd scream, I was very scared, but he just looked at me with annoyance, I think he doesn't like the noise and my screams put him in a bad mood.
"I'm…, I'm sorry, I was just surprised, I'll make a soup," I said while taking the big piece, but it was very difficult to lift it, even so I took it to the small kitchen, cut a piece and saw him take the rest to a small shed that was in the back of the cabin.
My food is not bad, the problem is that I only know how to make two dishes, so I hope my health improves before my repetitive menu puts him in a bad mood, although it is not difficult, he is always in a bad mood, apart from the fact that he doesn't talk to me.
That night my expectations were too high, there was only one bed, in front of the fireplace, and as I had slept there the night before, I assumed that he, that is, the silent grump, would sleep wherever he had slept the night before, but no, he went to the bed and lay down on it placidly, I was standing in the middle of the place not knowing what to do.
"Where…, where do I sleep?" I said calmly, but the reproach came out in the last syllables.
I saw him glance at me, and he moved over on the small bed, oh, no, I wouldn't do that, he was crazy, really crazy, he looked like a serial killer, a very sexy one, but a killer, although he didn't seem like a rapist, but still, I wouldn't do it.
"I'm not going to sleep in the same bed, it's not appropriate," I said while the man, the grump, turned his back on me as if he had nothing to do with it, as if he didn't care if I slept on the floor or not.
I was stunned, I didn't understand what was happening to him, so I contradicted him again, although less daring.
"It doesn't seem appropriate to me," I said trying not to be intransigent, he had saved me from death thanks to him, this was his cabin, that was his food, his bed and I was just a nuisance.
He didn't even move and seemed to have no remorse, so as the floor was not very cozy and the chair in the corner was the most uncomfortable thing I had ever seen, I slid gently next to him, and stayed practically on the side of the bed, more falling than sleeping.
The next day I woke up and was sprawled comfortably on the bed, he was not there, that idiot was gone, but at least it seems that he is not a shady and opportunistic guy.
I woke up and there was the plate with eggs and bread, what intrigued me was where the hell did the bread, the eggs and all that come from, but I would soon find out and I would wish I hadn't found out.
He came back as always after noon, with another prey, but it didn't end there, after I cooked and we had lunch, he spoke after almost 48 hours.
"Now that you're well, you must leave, I'll show you the path you should take back, so tomorrow you will wake up early, as it will take you a day walking to get to the next town," he tells me and I am almost in a panic, of course I want to go back, but not now, it's not safe, I don't know who to trust, although I should go with Silvia, she had always been my good friend, a good person.
"I, I wanted to ask you one more favor, I know I'm bothering you a lot and I want to thank you, you saved my life, but…, if I go back now my life is still in danger, just a few more days, please, I will help in everything, I promise, I will be a help and not a loss," I say desperately, and well, that's how he looked at me with a question mark, although his eyes are very beautiful and I just noticed, or is it that not seeing anyone but him makes me more receptive.
He looked at me trying to find an excuse to get me out of here, I know, I can see in his eyes that he doesn't want me near, he's a half-crazy hermit, although not one of the very bad ones, but I know he wants me away.
"Fine, but you only have two weeks, after that the storm approaches, winter begins and it always starts with a big snow storm, after that you can't go out for months, I hope it's clear to you that you won't be able to go out for at least 6 months.
"Now, since you're going to be here for a few more days, come, I'll show you the corral, the orchard and the oven, if you don't know how to make bread, you're going to learn, so listen to my instructions," he told me calmly while I was scared, I didn't see how to make bread, there was no rolling pin, no trays, the mixer, and the worst thing…, yes, it was seeing how I had to enter the henhouse and steal the children from those poor chickens.
Yes, now I understood that this man had a life scheme and now I was something like his live-in employee and without a salary, but what worries me is that my grandmother describes the wives of before like that.
