Sometimes we believe that it is necessary to believe in something superior to us to help us overcome the sorrows of life, I was always a boy of few beliefs, until cancer manifested itself in Emma, every day, every night I asked again and again for his quick recovery, I had unwittingly become a believer of something.

— You come every day to see me at the hospital, should not you go out with your friends too?

— They are aware of my visits, I do not think they bother with me for not seeing them a couple of days, do not worry ...

At that moment his face changed completely, I knew that I should be prepared for a serious response.

— Gabriel... You're the one who should not worry so much, I'll be fine or not just my pogress? You do not have to come every day, I really love that you do it, but I also feel that I take time away, you should go out with your friends and have fun.

— I'm scared Emma, I'm afraid of losing you...

— That's not going to happen, do not be afraid of losing me, Gabriel, I'm afraid for you, I'm afraid you'll lose yourself ...

It was there when I realized the truth of his words, who was I? I stopped playing soccer, I stopped painting and left my friends aside since Emma got sick.

When I got back home, I could not get out of my mind those words that Emma had told me, "she was right" I thought, I was looking at the dark sky of the city, it was totally clear, which was strange due to pollution, they were missing 3 days for my 21st birthday, I was not happy because of the situation I was in. Why stop playing soccer? Why stop painting? They were the questions that I tormented myself on the bus back home.

At home, as usual for 5 years, neither my father nor mother are at home, I really had everything against me to make me feel melancholy, that night I decided to go back to a small painting that I left unfinished a few months ago and I thought again in the words of Emma, I grabbed my brushes and started painting again, it was a small painting, in it was painted a rose which was going to be a gift for her birthday ... For some reason I do not remember because I could never finish it, but now he had to do it and give it to her.
