It was an April afternoon I had taken a shortcut through the field, it is a little traveled terrain, mostly only vehicles pass at night I have no idea why, for me that day in particular was the best option if I would not be late for violin practice and I did not want to hear the teacher's lecture and then my parents.
I was walking fast, when suddenly there was a brown leather bag, I noticed that object there, as I already mentioned that area almost nobody walks there, for a moment I was undecided whether to continue on my way or stop to check the bag, then I decided to take the bag and continued my trajectory.
I arrived just in time to the violin practice, the teacher was not present, I placed the bag very close to me. The time flew by and I was very concentrated in each performance and I performed so well that the teacher congratulated me at the end of the class, which pleased me.
I got up in a hurry, took my things and left the room, suddenly I heard Susana's voice shouting Peter, Peter was the third time I turned around, I'm usually so absent-minded. Susana so beautiful approached me with a big smile at the moment I felt that she came with the intention of inviting me to her party that she would give next week, but she did not give me gently the strange brown bag, I smiled back I said thank you shyly and she just told me this heavy you carry inside weapons, she turned around and left.
In my head began to sound those words of Susanna you have weapons Oh Peter what a mess you have gotten yourself into! How did you think of taking that bag? don't you remember the Japanese advice don't pick up what is not yours, I was endlessly reproaching myself.
Then I started walking towards the field with the intention of leaving the bag where it was, just as I was crossing the street I heard the horn of Bobby's car, my brother was coming to pick me up.
What were you doing, where were you going? - my brother asked me, then he gave me the usual lecture Peter you know you can't be crossing that field it's very lonely and something could happen to you, you're so stubborn.
I lied to him it was better that he would tell my parents where I used to cut through to get to violin practice and they would become so controlling again.
As soon as we arrived home I got out of the car almost running with the excuse that I had to go to the bathroom urgently, I went into the room and locked myself in violation of the house rule of never locking the door, my mother could think of anything crazy, that's why she had imposed that rule on us since we were kids.
But I wanted to know what was in that leather bag and I had to find a hiding place so that my mother wouldn't find it when she came into the room to clean, she is very fussy about order and cleanliness.
I opened the briefcase carefully.....
Era una tarde de abril había tomado un atajo por el campo, es un terreno poco transitado, mayormente solo pasan vehículos en la noche no tengo idea por que, para mí ese día en especial fue la mejor opción si no llegaría tarde a las prácticas de violín y no quería oír el sermón del profesor y luego el de mis padres.
Caminaba deprisa, cuando de repente hay estaba un bolso de cuero marrón me llamo la atención ese objeto allí, como ya mencione ese terreno casi nadie lo transita, de momento estuve indeciso si continuar con mi camino o detenerme a revisar el bolso, entonces decidí tomar el bolso y seguí mi trayectoria.
Llegué justo a tiempo a la práctica de violín, el profesor no estaba presente, coloque el maletín muy cerca de mí. El tiempo paso volando estuve muy concentrado en cada ejecución las realice tan bien que el profesor al finalizar la clase me felicito, eso me agrado.
Me levante de prisa tome mis cosas y salí del salón, de repente escucho la voz de Susana que me grita Peter, Peter fue el tercer llamado que voltee, es que suelo ser tan despistado. Susana tan hermosa se acerco a mi con una gran sonrisa de momento sentí que venía con la intención de invitarme a su fiesta que daría la próxima semana, pero no me entrego gentilmente el extraño bolso marrón, le devolví la sonrisa dije gracias tímidamente y ella solo me dijo esta pesado que llevas dentro armas, se dio la vuelta y se fue.
En mi cabeza comenzó a sonar esas palabras de Susana tienes armas ¡Oh Peter en que lio te has metido! ¿Cómo se te ocurrió tomar ese bolso? no te recuerdas del consejo japonés no recojas lo que no es tuyo, me recriminaba sin cesar.
Entonces comencé a caminar hacía el campo con la intención de dejar el bolso donde estaba, justo cuando cruzaba la calle escuche el claxon del automóvil de Bobby mi hermano me venía a buscarme.
_ ¿Qué hacía, así donde ibas? - me pregunto mi hermano, luego me dio el sermón de siempre Peter tu sabes que no puedes estar atravesando ese campo es muy solitario y algo te puede ocurrir, eres tan terco.
Le mentí era mejor eso a que le contará a mis padres por donde solía cortar camino para llegar a las prácticas de violín y se volvieran tan controladores de nuevo.
A penas llegamos a casa salí del carro casi corriendo con la excusa de que debía ir urgentemente al baño, entre al cuarto y me encerré con llave violando así la norma de casa de nunca cerrar la puerta con seguro, a mi madre le pasaba cualquier barbaridad por la cabeza por eso nos había impuesto esa regla desde niños.
Pero quería saber que contenía ese bolso de cuero además tenía que buscar un escondite para que mamá no lo encontrará cuando entrara al cuarto a limpiar es muy quisquillosa con el orden y la limpieza.
Abrí el maletín con cuidado.....
