Chapter 79
79 A beautiful angel Upon arriving at the village, April asked the guards to take her to the market.
She had never visited one before so she was curious to see what it would be like.
There were many stalls selling fruit, vegetables and many other things at the market.
She stopped at each one and bought something from each one.
As she passed a food stand, she saw two very thin children who were staring blankly at the food and touching
their stomachs.
April had touched her stomach countless times like those children were doing when she was a child, she
understood what it meant, they were hungry.
April approached the food stand and ordered several meat skewers, after paying for them she approached the
children and offered one to each of them.
_ Are you hungry? The children nodded vigorously, their mouths watering at the sight of the food, but they
hesitated for a moment whether to take what was being offered to them.
No one was nice to them so they were wary of the kindness of the beautiful woman standing before them.
With a soft and sweet voice April told them.
_The food is good, there is nothing wrong with it.
The children took the skewers with the meat and immediately put it in their mouths.
They had been orphaned for two months.
Ever since their parents had died, they had been sleeping on the streets because the landlord had thrown them
out of the house they lived in.
Since they had no other family, they had to beg for food in order to survive.

There were very few who gave them any hard bread to satisfy their hungry stomachs, this was the first decent
meal they had had in a long time.
Tears rolled down their cheeks.
April stroked their heads, their hair was dirty, hard, the guards wanted to prevent the princess from touching
those dirty children, but she gave them a stern look.
They were very surprised, she was always sweet, tender and naive, they never imagined that she could make
that kind of look.
She comforted the children and asked.
_ What's wrong? Isn't it hot? _Yes, it's very good.
One of the children replied while wiping away his tears with the back of his hand.
April took out her handkerchief to wipe her tears and asked them.
_You can eat as much as you want, I've bought quite a bit.
After the children had satisfied their stomachs, April asked them where they lived.
The two children looked at each other wondering if they should tell her the truth or not.
In the end, the one who seemed to be the oldest answered.
_In an alley near here.
April had feared it, those children seemed to have been abandoned to their fate due to the state they were in,
but she asked them anyway.
_ And your parents? The children's eyes glazed over, the eldest replied.
_They died two months ago.
_lIs there no one to take care of you? The two children shook their heads.
Abril knew how hard it was to be alone even as a child with no one to help them, no one to care if they had eaten
or not.
She wanted to help them, she didn't want to do like everyone else, give them a meal and leave them behind, she
wanted to do more, Abril remembered that Alessandro had once told her that she could ask for whatever she
wanted and he would give it to her, at that moment she wanted to take advantage of that offer.
She gave them a sweet smile and said.
_ Do you want to cwith me? I'll take care of you.
The two guards thought that the princess was being too impulsive and wanted to stop her.
_His majesty...
Before they could say anything else, April gave them an unfriendly look, silencing them.
She wanted to help those children, not only because she felt sorry for them, but also because she felt identified
with them.
Every tshe saw them, she saw herself hungry, alone, and scared, begging God to live one more day.
The older brother responded.
_ Can't we go with strangers? _My nis April, and you? "My nis Otis and my brother's nis Joe," the
eldest replied.
_ What beautiful names? Your parents must have thought a lot about them, now that we have introduced
ourselves we are no longer strangers, we are friends.
Do you want to cwith me? _But...
April caressed her cheeks, not caring at all that the children's faces were dirty and told them.
_When winter comes they won't be able to live in that alley.
April turned to Otis and said.

winter weather.
Otis was aware of that, without warm clothing and without food they would die with the arrival of winter, so he
asked April while he looked at his brother.
_ Won't he do anything weird to us? _Of course not, | just want to take care of you, make sure you have a roof
over your heads and three meals a day, and that you grow up healthy and strong.
Otis hesitated for a moment whether to accept what the beautiful woman in front of them was saying or to run
away, he was scared, many children had disappeared lately, Otis replied.
_ You're really not bad? _ Do | seem like a bad person to you? Otis shook his head.
April smiled at him, her smile was beautiful, warm, in his eyes April was like a beautiful angel who had saved
them from starving.
_You are like an Angel, kind and caring who doesn't mind touching someone like us.
_ So what do you say? Will you cwith me? Otis looked at his brother, since his parents had died he had lost a
lot of weight and was almost skin and bones, he couldn't let his brother go through that anymore and he replied.
_Yes, we will go with you.
