Victor and Belen. //history based on reality.
Victor, a curious and very studious boy, went to live with his family in a colony called Puerto Morro. In those afternoons, he went to the park, where he found a girl sitting on one of the boats. She looked towards the lake where the beautiful trees were reflected.
He found it very attractive and knew that it was called Bethlehem, because the name was stamped on its flannel. He tried to address her, so that he could chat for a while. Suddenly, Bethlehem was no longer there.
The next day Victor went back. Bethlehem was not there. The days passed and it seemed that she had been swallowed up by the earth. She went again three weeks later and to her great surprise she was able to recognize her from afar.
Long black hair, near the fountain to drink water.
Victor came over and started a conversation with the girl.
Hello," said Victor very cheerfully. What's your name?
Hello, my name is Bethlehem. She answered and asked: "What is your name?
My name is Victor.
Are you new to the colony?
Yes, I am. He answered and asked Bethlehem: "How long have you lived here?
I'm exactly three years old.
And so began that beautiful friendship between them. They were on the court. They began to fall in love.
It is true that Victor camino decided to go to the place where they agreed to meet. When he saw her there, he felt that all the courage he had gathered was going overboard. Her legs were shaking. The words froze in her mouth and Bethlehem, strange for her behavior, looked at him astonished.
Bethlehem, I, I have something to say.
Tell me, Victor, do you feel bad?
No, it's nothing like that. He replied something nervous. I like you very much, Bethlehem, and I want you to be my girlfriend. Do you accept?
Bethlehem was paralyzed by surprise. I could not give her an answer.
Victor anxious to hear it. Until at the end Bethlehem said a word.
yes...
Victor a little nervously approached Bethlehem slowly and passed his lips on hers. Years passed and they graduated from college. Belén and Víctor never returned to Puerto Morrón again. There are still those letters from them and that look at the lake where a love was born forever.
A beautiful story come true.
