The betrayal of my brothers I

I was already 8 years old and I was as cunning as my grandmother and I had taken some tricks from my father, from my mother I inherited the distrust of someone who was two-faced, but I could never know if I could trust my 3 siblings since my older sister always ignored me and as she was already an adult she simply ignored me, Leandro when he was not in the company of Marcelo was quiet and dreamy but the two of them together were somewhat cruel and invented strange things, one day several letters arrived and Marcelo was in charge of receiving them, I was reading some of mom's books and I didn't notice that they both looked at me with a curious laugh, out of the corner of my eye I saw that they read a letter, I wanted to ask but I chose to ignore them and continue with the reading; Since this book of "medicinal flowers" made me curious.

Weeks went by and the twins did the same thing, until one day they asked mom for permission because they were going for a walk and wanted to take me to a new place where there was a beautiful fountain; At first my mother was opposed because she did not want anything bad to happen to the 3 of us, but after so much insistence she agreed and the next day we decided to go out, I wore a nice dress the top is beige and the dress is light yellow, and with that game a dark beige hat with yellow ribbon type bow and my black shoes, they wore black pants with a cream shirt and a black jacket with black shoes.

I was curious about so much elegance from them although I didn't give much importance to it, when we were already retired from the house I heard them talking about girls and they were wondering how their aunt would be, ignore that and I just decided to see the people walking around us and the girls with their beautiful dresses and a nice hat on their heads and their somewhat high shoes, some with big leather jackets and their leather gloves just the same, they looked so elegant and beautiful to me I thought 'I would love to be like them', as we got to the fountain it was really beautiful I watch as they move a little away from me to see a beautiful woman with golden hair almost to her shoulders she was dressed in those long black jackets and white gloves.

I watched her smoke and see how she was talking to my brothers until Leandro called me, the woman when I saw me I noticed how her gesture changed a little uncomfortably and then blinking a little fast she says

Mystery woman: I'm sorry if I scared you, you just reminded me a lot of someone.

Logically my curiosity got the better of me and I asked: May I know who?

While staring at me she said in a tone of slight nostalgia: my mother.

I wanted to apologize but she shook her head as a sign that there was no problem, this woman agreed to invite me something and get to know me better, whenever I asked her name to my brothers they always chose to change the subject and that made me very uncomfortable, but I could not go home alone.

The woman who kept looking at me asked: Does something bother you?

Something that I have is that I show very easily when something does not give me a good feeling or makes me uncomfortable and that happened with this woman, seeing her was like seeing my body screaming "RUN... GET AWAY FROM HER" I nodded and said to her

Me: my brothers won't tell me your name.

She excuses them by saying: maybe they didn't hear you baby girl.

When she said that last sentence my skin bristles and screams at me even more to get away from her, so I look for my brothers with my eyes but without success, I try to calm down and not to panic while I say to myself

Inner voice: 'calm down Zafi, take a deep breath they are close there are just a lot of people'.

That's what I did, I took a deep breath and went looking again but this time slower and I had no success, I had no other choice but to risk going alone, which was not a good idea but asking for help to that woman who I didn't even know her name was like tempting fate.
