00:03Also, I'm the oldest MSA girl here because my story happened in the 70s, but trust me
00:09It's interesting enough and you'll learn a thing or two about hope. So please like and subscribe
00:14My life was not exactly good
00:16We could only eat once a day and our house was falling apart
00:19Just like my family our dad was always angry and we were very poor
00:24But there was a time where everything was fine back when my brother Lucio and I were little dad was a good dad
00:29And mom was there. They were the most loving parents in the whole world
00:33They always played with us in the park and bought us toys
00:36We weren't rich, but our family was happy until one day I got fired. They scammed me
00:42What they scammed me we lost everything. He never told us who scammed him
00:47We tried to ask him how we could help but he just ignored us and sold our toys and mom's jewelry
00:52However, thanks to sell ran out and dad didn't know what to do anymore
00:56Maybe we can work selling things or I don't know something. Yeah, dad
01:01We can sell matches or no, what why you can't leave school to go to work
01:06But I said no
01:08We will put you in a public school and your mom and I will see what we can do
01:12So go study or something we fought with dad many times, but he wouldn't let us work
01:17So we gave up at least mom was still there, right? Mom. What are you doing?
01:22Lucio and I had woken up in the middle of the night and found mom cleaning the house like crazy. Oh, I'm just
01:29Cleaning the house darling at 3 a.m. Mom. I know you like cleaning but suddenly she ran to us and hugged us
01:37Promise me you'll help your dad. Promise me. You'll shine brighter than any star in the sky. What are you? Okay, mom
01:44Yeah, what's going on? Just promise me that can you?
01:48We promise next morning mom left the house was completely clean and all her clothes were gone
01:54We looked for her everywhere even asked the neighbors, but no one had seen her. It was the worst day of our lives
02:00We cried a lot and dad wasn't the same after that. He got angry. He was angry every day
02:05So we tried not to bother him. We started to work after school and dad tried to stop us
02:10But after a while, he just made us promise that we wouldn't drop out of school and we didn't talk about mom
02:16But we always hoped that someday she'd come back dad worked cleaning shoes and Lucio and I sold matches
02:22We walked through the neighborhoods after school and at the end of the day
02:25We met at the grocery store to see if we could buy any food
02:28We didn't earn much but we managed to save for one or sometimes two meals a day
02:32And that was a win for us our lives weren't the best but we tried to be positive
02:37She won't believe how much I hey, what happened? Are you okay? I didn't sell any matches today
02:43I went to hug him and tell him that everything is gonna be okay and without him noticing I dropped a $1 bill behind him
02:50Don't worry Lucio. I'm sure tomorrow. You'll sell a lot of matches. I hope so. Wait, what's that?
02:57Look, it's doll $1 today must be her lucky day or something because I have $3 right here
03:03You know what? That means hot dogs. We bought two hot dogs and then we sat on a street corner to eat them
03:09We haven't had a hot dog in almost a year and it was delicious
03:14But our happiness didn't last long. Hey kids, can't you give a bite of that? What no go away. There's nothing yours here
03:21Didn't your parents teach you not to be selfish? It's none of your business
03:26Suddenly the guy ripped the hot dog out of my hands and ran away while laughing
03:30I tried to follow him, but he was running too fast and it started to rain
03:34So I went back to Lucio at least you still have your Oh
03:37Lucio's hot dog was on the floor. Well, our lucky day ended fudge
03:43Sorry, Estella. I always ruin everything
03:46That's not true
03:47The one who ruined everything was that freak who stole my hot dog and threw yours on the floor, but no
03:52No, don't even worry. We'll buy hundreds of hot dogs one day. Okay, let's go home for now
03:57Our dad came back from work that night and he was angry
04:00It sure didn't go well
04:02And when he found out we wasted the money he got super annoyed and locked himself in the bedroom
04:07Everything seemed to go from bad to worse until one day things began to change
04:12I was walking around the upper-class neighborhood selling my matches, but that day the cold was horrible
04:18So I came up with the best idea of all walked into the huge garage of a house
04:22There were hundreds of cars and it was so warm, but oh no, there were people coming
04:29Yeah, all my parents cars at the latest model my favorite one is what the fudge a girl caught me hiding
04:36Among the cars and her expression was really scary. What happened? Is the car? Okay. Yeah
04:43I thought I saw a rat. Come on. We better go to the pool
04:47I was saved after a while
04:49I made sure there was no one there and went out quietly
04:52But the girl from before was looking at me from the garage entrance. Who are you? What were you doing?
04:57Were you trying to steal one of our cars? No, no, I can explain
05:00It was really cold out there in your garage looked like a very warm place. So I went there. That's all I swear
05:08Suddenly her expression changed. She looked less intimidating. Oh
05:12I see. Well, you can warm yourself in the fireplace at my house. It's better. Trust me. Come on, really?
05:19Thank you so much. Yeah, but don't steal anything
05:23By the way, what's your name Estella nice to meet you Estella
05:28I'm Cielo her name meant sky in Spanish and something about that made me smile
05:33She gave me a tour of her house and it was like a mansion and so warm
05:38But I knew I couldn't stay that long. I should get going
05:41I you know, mom always said we need a cleaner. Do you happen to know anyone who needs a job?
05:47What are you serious, do you know someone well me Cielo smiled and gave me your hand you're hired
05:55Come in every day after two. Okay, Cielo's mom didn't like me, but she gave me a chance and the pay was
06:02Amazing though the best part of it all said I got a friend every day after I cleaned up Cielo and I would watch
06:08Movies or gossip about my classmates or her weird neighbors. It was really fun
06:12However, one day when I was going to her house, I saw her fighting with her mom
06:16You should be inside studying not wasting time here. The cleaning girl is distracting you from your duties Cielo
06:23Oh, she's not doing anything mom. I got perfect grades in everything
06:28I was just trying to rest a little on weekends
06:32Well, if you're not in your room in five minutes studying that girl will be fired when her mom left and walked up to her
06:42I hugged her tightly and she cried a little
06:47Thank you, I'll be here whenever you need me
06:53Since that day we became best friends
06:57But her mom fired me after a month and I got back to selling matches
07:02However, Cielo was always sneaking off to talk to me
07:05So I didn't get that sad and even Lucio met her he didn't like her that much
07:10But that was because he was so grumpy for the first time and because of Cielo my life didn't feel so bad one day
07:17I even told her a little about our life. Oh, you've been through a lot Estella
07:22I feel so guilty that my mom fired you. I'm really sorry
07:28It was my fault after all. All I did was gossip with you. Don't you remember?
07:33and
07:35Don't you ever think of running away? Yeah, of course, but we don't have enough money to do it
07:40And what if I tell you that I can help you? No, never. I won't accept any money. No
07:46No, I want to escape from my parents too, but I don't want to do it alone
07:51So I was thinking of telling you and Lucio about it. We can run away together and be free
07:58What do you think? Are you really sure Cielo? I've never been so sure of anything in my life
08:05However, when I told Lucio he wasn't as sure as Cielo. I don't know Estella. We could get into trouble
08:12Lucio, this is our only chance to do it
08:14If mom could do it run away, then we can he also deserve a good life away from dad
08:21Well, we'd have to be extremely careful
08:25After that our plan started we raised as much money as we could with Cielo's help and some weeks later
08:31I went to the train station and bought train tickets to Sweden to leave in two days
08:36Sweden that's where yeah, I hope she's still there
08:40Okay here. I feel like a dog at a chess game. What are you talking about?
08:45My mom I told you about her didn't I? Well, sometimes she sends us postcards from Sweden and you want to go find her
08:52Yeah
08:53But we don't know if she wants to be found if she sends you those postcards it must be for a reason
08:59Isn't it Lucio and I smiled at Cielo?
09:01She was a really good friend the day came and Lucio and I told dad we were going to work
09:06While Cielo told her mom that she was going to the mall
09:09We only carried a small backpack with some clothes. So nobody suspected anything
09:13We met at the train station and Cielo looked at me and gave me a weak smile when the train was arriving
09:18Lucio grabbed my hand
09:25Cielo what do you think you're doing?
09:27A woman ran to us and grabbed Cielo's arm tightly. Do you think you could just run away from home like that?
09:32What's going on with you?
09:34You and dad are always fighting and you only talk to me to tell me to study
09:38You guys never really pay attention to me who put those ideas in your head. Was it her?
09:44I knew she'd be a problem police police leave them alone. They didn't do anything
09:51Run guys a policeman approached Cielo's mom
09:54And before he could notice us Lucio pulled my hand and we ran out of the train station
09:58We hid behind a dumpster and saw the policeman running in front of it after being there for a while
10:03I started to cry again. Shh. Come here. Listen, we can fix it
10:08We still have some savings from your last job. We can know what why we can't do it without Cielo
10:16We can't leave her behind
10:17You're right the same day when we arrived home
10:20We lost all hope of escape dad found all our savings was upset that we hid it from him
10:26So he kept it somewhere else and said it would only be for food
10:29But then winter came and I didn't have any winter clothes. You should wear the jacket Estella. I can stand the cold
10:36I'm like an ice man. Yeah, sure. Oh, come on lighten up today
10:41We will sell a lot and eat hot dogs. What do you say? I don't know. It's fine
10:46I've had enough you have to stop this
10:49Cielo is fine in her nice little mansion eating whatever she wants. Stop worrying about her
10:55She's not well Lucio, you know it she's better off than we are
11:00We didn't talk for the rest of the week and then I got sick on New Year's Eve and Lucia was the one who always
11:05Took care of me, but I knew he was very upset so I didn't tell him anything
11:11Hadn't eaten all day and the cold was getting to me
11:17So
11:21I sat on the corner between two houses and looked at the matches in my hands. I
11:27Hadn't sold a single one and I didn't want to go home with nothing
11:35I looked into the window of a house and saw a family eating roast goose
11:40My stomach roared and I remembered Lucio. I hope he can forgive me
11:46I rubbed a match against the wall and its fire warmed my hands a little but it was quickly extinguished
11:52I did it again and saw Cielo through the small flame
11:57Cielo but she disappeared as soon as the flame went out. So I did it again. But this time I saw mom
12:03Mom, don't go. Please. I miss you
12:09She disappeared as soon as the flame went out and I cried
12:13Then I took all my matches and let them all at the same time and I saw my family
12:19There was Lucio and Cielo eating roast goose. Well, mom was serving it. Mom looked at me and smiled
12:26Come with us Estella. I'm coming mom
12:30Maybe that's how everything ends
12:37Or maybe not I
12:40I opened my eyes and looked around I was tucked up in a comfortable bed and the room I was in was very nice
12:46Lucio was on a chair looking at me. I'm glad you're okay. I was so worried
12:52What happened you collapsed from the fever and you almost froze but I found you early
12:57You were in a coma the whole week. Are you still mad?
13:01The past is in the past and you won't believe it, but I found a really good job
13:06Cielo she helped secretly he grabbed my hand and I gave him a weak smile
13:13We'll be fine Estella. We'll shine brighter than any star in the sky. I got
13:36You
