This semester I don't want my blog to be so boring, so I will try to write a little book. Well, I think it would be more like a story. I never did it before, so I don't know how it would be like. Let's go.
Margarite would never forget the moment when she left the orphanage. Her older brother had left her at orphanage when Margarite was only one year old. He was twelve and totally alone. He couldn't do anything more. He didn't know where were their parents, they had disappeared.
They both were very young when they left their houses. They wanted to be together but their parents were againts. Jason was a singer and he left his young wife Sophie alone with two little children. She didn't know what to do. There weren't jobs and she didn't want to ask her parents help because she was too pride. Moreover, she realised that they had been right when they had told her that she would regret. And, actually, it happened and she didn't want them to know it. She left her children with a friend for a few days until she could find a job, but she desappeared. Nobody knew where she could be. Mike, Margarite's brother decided to go to find her and for this reason he left his sister this 19 July because he didn't like his mother's friend because she wouldn't care about her. Camila, was Sophie's friend. He couldn't believe it. He tried to find them, but she never get it. Mike has promised himself that he would find her mother and then they both would go to pick up Margarite. Then, they would go to live very far and they would be very happy. Despite he was twelve, he was very mature and intelligent. That day he told all this to the orphanage director. He make them promise him that they would wait for his mother and him and then he went.
When Margarite was sixteen, Mr. Smith decided to tell her all her story. She was very sad but very happy at the same time. Sad because of the fact that nobody came yet and happy because there was a big possibility to find her real family. At this moment she decided the when she could leave the orphanage, she would go to find Mike. She also finally understood why Mr. Smith hadn't had let nobody to adopt her. There were a lot of families who wanted to do it because she was a very nice girl. She had good marks. She was a calm, educate and kind girl.
On 19 July, when Margarite was eighteen, she left the orphanage and she went to find a job and to stard a new, completely different life. She was a little scary, of course, but the thoughts about his brother ecouraged her.
She started to work in a bar as a waitress. Firstly she didn't do it very well, but little by little she started to controle it. In very few days she learnt it and a month later she has already became the manager. She started to live with a workmate, Diana, who ended being her best friend. In the bar she met Charly, a nice boy who was the owner's brother. He liked her very much, but Sophie hasn't paying him much attention. She had a very clear mission and she didn't want anything to think about or something that could distract her. She was impatient to start her brother's search.
Charly had a band. He was the singer and the guitar. His band used to play in the club every weekend. There were quite good. Margarite liked them, but this was all, although he tried to seduce her, she didn't fell in love with him. Charly talked to Diana and asked her for help. He didn't know what to do. He gave her lots of presents, flowers. Ha organized romantic dinners. Margarite could always go to their concerts and she also had all their Cds. Diana told him about Margarite's brother and she proposed him to help her to look for him. Charly thought it was the best he could ever do. He was sure that if they both did it, they would spend a lot of time together and if he got to find Mike, Margarite would accept to marrying him. He planned to make a private investigation. He had a lot of contacts who could help him, so he took on a private detective and then he tried to talk to Margarite. Firstly, she rejected his help because she hadn't anything to pay him with, but then she thought that he was the only person who could really help her. She told him all she knew, it was all that Mr.Smith had told her.
Mike had told him that if he couldn't get back, Mr. Smith should told Margarite averything. His name was Mike Parker and his birthday was the 20 July, a day after Marga's. Their mother's name was Sophie Jonhson and his birthday was the 16 September 1965. About his father he only knew his name: Jason Parker and the band's name was: “Mima stupid thing”, but he didn't understand it. He didn't know anything about their grandparents either.
Charly told the detective all this information and the detective started to investigate immediatelly. He started for the father's band and he discovered that they had slip up because Jason had died. He died in 2002, but he left a lot of money for Margarite, only for her. Marga picked up the money and she payed the private detective. Then they decided to go to a trip because Margarite had never seen any place. They went to France, Italy, Greece and Russia. Marga spent the best moments en her whole life. She enjoyed it a lot, however, she couldn't stop to thinking about her brother and mother. They both had a really good time and Margarite started to think about giving a chance to Charly. He had demostrated her to be a very good boy to love her very much. She felt very lucky.
When they got back, there were some news. The first one was that their friend Diana had had a car accident and she was in coma, and the second one was that the private detective couldn't find anything about Mike. There weren't any trace. Margarite started to get descouraged more and more, but Charly didn't lose hope. They could try a lot of things more. They could publicate it in the newspapers and television. And the detective didn't do all he could do, there were a lot of work, it wasn't easy at all.
One day, Margarite was going back to home, and suddenly a woman went to talk to her. She didn't know who she was but she decided to listen her, maybe it was something relationated with Mike. The woman told her that she had seen on the television about her brother and she remembered him. She knew him. Margarite could't believe it. It was absolutely wonderful! She invited the woman to her house to talk. The woman told her that she didn't know were he was at that moment, but five years ago Mike had been living at her house. He had had some problems and one day disappeared without saying anything. He left his things at home, they were few things, but that meant that he had gone rapidly because possibly he had been having some problems. Some days later, the women saw that Mike didn't come back and decided to look in his room, maybe there were something important. There she found some clothes, some folders, a gun and some photos. In one of those were a beautiful woman with two kids, a girl and a boy. On the back were wrote “Me and my sweathearts Margarite and Mike”. There others in which appeared Mike with some friends, a girl called Elisabeth and few more. In the folders were some documents and photos also. Those documents were about Sophie. They were investigations that he had done and some photos. In one of those folders were something really interesting. He had discovered that there had been some days that he had disappeared. She had been living with an known man. He was her second hasband and a dangerous gangster, althougt Sophie hadn't know that when she had met him. So, it seemed that one day she discovered something terrible that he had done, something relationated with a murder. In that folder were some papers where Mike wrote than some neighbours had told him that Sophie had
wanted to reported him and then, she desappeared.
While the woman was telling all this story, Margarite was crying. She couldn't believe what she was listening. She was so close to find her family. After three hours, the women went home and left all Mike's things to Margarite. She wished Margarite could find Mike and Sophie.
Margarite called Charly and he came to her house. She told everything and he could neither believe it. They both called the private detective so he could look at that folders and could continue with the investigation.
A week later, he discovered that Mike had discovered that her mother was married with a gangster and he tried to talk with her, but finally, he couldn't do it because they probably had threatened to kill him and this is because he got away later. However, this is not all true. He hadn't really desappeared, he had gone to the police and they had been trying to do something but with a lot of care because this gangster was very dangerous. After some days, the police lost Mike's trace.
They feared that the gangster had done something to Mike and he was in troubles. They thought that maybe the gangster had kidnapped Mike and they had to do something. They were losing time, the had to act seriously. The problem was that they hadn't any proof against him and they couldn't go in his house. So, they decided to let pass some time to calm down and to thing a strategy. That was the last news they had about them. Margarite has a little frightened and she wodered why the police hadn't said anything when then han been looking for them. The private detective told her that it was dangerous, they mustn't tell anything.
That night Margarite couldn't sleep. She was thinking about what was happening. There was a lot of coincidences. For exemple, she had come to live in the exactly place where were her brother and mother. The orphanage was in a town at nearly 300 km and she had thought that in a town it would be much easier to find a job and to look for them. In part, she was happy for had found information about them so rapid, but in other part she was a little sad because they probably were in a big trouble.
The next day, Charly and Margarite went to visit Diana, she was still in coma and doctors were thinking that it was probably that unfortunetely she will be in coma for a long time. There weren't any news either about Mike nor Sophie. Margarite was really affected and she asked Charly to spend the night at her house because she was very lonely. Charly was practising all the afternoon and then he went to the shopcenter and bought the dinner, some wine and then he went Margarite's house. There had dinner, drank a little wine and were talking the whole night. They knew new things about each other and they had a good time. When they were together, they felt peace. Charly showed her a new song that he had composed for her a few days ago. It was beautiful and Margarite liked it very much. When he stopped singing it, Marga kissed him. Charly couldn't believe it, he was just made the happiest person in the world. Without knowing it, Margarite had fall in love with him and it was fantastic.
Margarite thought about it a lot, and finally she decided to do something. She went to the gangaster house saying him that she was looking for a job as a cleaning lady or whatever.She thought it would be easier if she tried to do something if she were in the house, or at least she could listen something. The gangster accepted and she started to work there the same day. The private detective saw it baucause Charly had said him to follow her everywhere and immediately went to told the police and Charly what have just happened. He couldn't do anything to stop her. After a while the police said that for the moment they wouldn'd do anything. Charly was very nervous, he wanted to go for Margarite, but they didn't let him.
The gangster locked up Margarite. She was very scared, she didn't understand anything. When she realised, she was with two people more, a boy and a woman. She recognized the boy immediately. She knew that he was Mike. He was the same as in the photograph. The boy and the woman looked at her with coriosity without understandind why she was there. Margarite sat dawn. She was very nervous. She didn't know what to say or what to do. For a while she forgot that she was closed in a gangstar house. So, she said.: “Are you Mike and Sophie”? They didn't say a thing for some seconds and then Mike said: “Yes, I am Mike, but she isn't Sophie.”. And suddenly the woman said: “I am Rebecca, who are you and why are you here?” Margarite changed her face. That meant that that woman wasn't her mum, but she was very similar to the photo she had seen some weeks ago. She said: “My name is Margarite. Does this name say something to you?”. Mike looked at her with a surprising face and the said: “Margarite? Margarite? Do you...Do you...Do you mean that you are Margarite Parker? My sister?” In his eyes appeared some tear. Margarite started to cry. “Yes, I am Margarite Parker. Mr Smith told me that my brother had left me in the orphanage when I was only one and he twelve. He had gone to look for our mum Sophie that had disappeared. When I was eighteen I came here and I started to look for them. One day a women came to my house and she told me that my brother had been living in her house, but one day he disappeared. She showed me some photos where were my brother, our mother and I and some folders with his investigation. Then the police started to investigate, but I couldn't wait more and here I am”. The boy looked her for some seconds and said her “I can't believe what are you saying. Yes, yes I am Mike. Of course I am Mike”. And they finally embraced each other crying. Mike started to say:“Forgive me please. Forgive for to going to look for you. I just couldn't. I wanted to go with our mother, but I couldn't find her. Two days after your eighteen birthday I went to the orphanage to see if you were still there, but you weren't and Mr. Smith didn't know anything about you. I had bought you a present, but I didn't know if you would like it...Then, some friends, which were helping me to find our mother, told me about this gangster and that they had seen a woman who was like our mother, but when I came there I saw some of gangaster's men trying to kill someone and when they saw me, they locked me there. Then I saw that this woman, Rebecca, is not our mother ”. He wanted to ask Margarite about her like, when suddenly Rebecca said: “I know who are you mother. However, his name is not Sophie, now she is Jane. Altough, I didn't know that she had changed her name until now. Now I realize about this.”. Mike and Margarite were looking at her with a poker face. They wanted her to explain all this urgently. So, she started. “I know Jane for ten years. I met her in my club, she was looking for a job. She worked there for a long time. There she met George, the gangster. He wanted to marry her, but she didn't. One day she had a terrible accident and she lost her memory. George went to the hospital and he told her that he was her husband and he wanted her to go home. He didn't want her to find her children and he made her to think that I was a liar when I tried to explain her who she really was. Then, then went abroad for a long time and I couldn't find them. When I knew that they came back I tried to speak with Jane again or at least to know how she was. It was impossible because she was never alone. One day I saw her in their garden and I tried to talk to her. She recognize me. She told me that she had rememberd all but she didn't know how to contact me. She was afraid about George and she didn't know what to do. But, unfortunately, George discovered us talking and then locked me here and I think he took Jane to another house”.
There passed some days. They talked about lots of things. Margarite told them her life in the orphanage. She met a lot of people. However, she lost her two best friends. One of them died and the other was adopted. Mike told her that he had been working for the mafia and this is why he had a gun. He had thought that in this way he could find his mother easily, but it wasn't like that. They were talking and talking and talking, although they were all afraid about what will happen whit them.
One day, they started to hear a lot of noise and also two shoots. They were very nervous. After some minutes, someone opened the door. It was Charly! Margarite ran towards him and she noticed that he was hurt. His leg was covered in blood. He explained that it was George, but Charly killed him. All house was sorrounded by the police, so they finally could go home. They went immediately to the hospital. Charly was losing a lot of blood.
Some day after, the police got to know about where Jane could be. A man who worked for George told all he knew. It was at 500 km. When they arrived there were a lot of men surrounding the place. They got close quietly and little by little they eliminated them. Finally, they get in the house. There were a lot of soldiers and they could catch all them. After they made sure that there weren't someone else, they started to look for Jane. She was shut in a little room and very scared. There went running Margarite, Mike and Rebecca. Jane recognized Rebecca, but she didn't know who the other people were. When they went to their home, they were in separeted cars. Jane and Rebecca in one and Mike and Margarite in another. During the trip Jane asked Rebecca: “Who are they? Why they are here? They are not members of the police, are they?” And Rebecca aswered: “Do you remember you children, Jane? You told me about them a lot of time ago. You told me that the thing that you wanted the most in this world was to find you children. Do you remember, Jane or maybe I have to say Sophie?” Jane was paralized. How she knew about her real name? No one knew about it, no one but... “Oh, my god! Do you mean that they are my children? Please, say me that they are. I cannot believe it. It is like a dream. Are you sure they are my children?” Rebecca didn't know how to calm her, she was so excited. “Yes, yes I am sure, they are Mike and Margarite. Now, you can talk with them and you will know it by yourself.”
When they arrived at the police station, Jane got out of the car and she started to walk towards Mike and Margarite very slowly. She was looking at them and she saw so many similarities with their father and grandmother. They were their copy. She got close to them and said: “Mike? Margarite? My little Margarite? I cannot believe what I am seeing. It is like a dream. I am the happiest”. In this moment they ambaraced and never separated again.
