Write about
a present that I received; a present in particular, is difficult for me,
because I have many in my memory.
I can
remember one that was very important in my life as a child.
This was in
a Christmas.
In the night my parents distributed gifts for all people of my
family.
They gave me a Barbie. I thought: “it is a joke? My parents know that I
don’t like the Barbie. Why gave me this?” I felt a great disappointment in this
moment, so I thought in cry. I went to my bed and I cried. I said: “I
want a rollers skate”, because all children in my street, had theirs.
My dad went
to my bedroom and he said: “hey, you don’t cry. This is only a toy, there is something
more important in the life. Do you remember the song “el tamborilero”?” I said:
“Yes, I do remember. Why?” My dad said me: “The tamborilero is a child very
poor and only he have a little drum, so, he gives this present for Jesús. We doesn’t
money now, your mom and me were as the “tamborilero”. The rollers skate are
very expensive and the only present that we can give you is a Barbie. Do you
understand?”
Although
never I liked the Barbie, this present is very special. Always I think in this
present when I want something and it isn’t possible.
you did not like the Barbie !!!! I have a Barbie with skates if you want I can give ;)
