Black Diamond
The day under the bridge begins very early, the sun illuminates the place quickly, and from far away you can hear the horns of vehicles passing by. I got up wrapped up in a blanket that Olivia had given me.
"Good morning, boy, get up if you are going to stay here you need to know several things, here everything starts from the first hour of the morning, some people, as you must have realized, do not bathe but those who do so We head back where you make the line, there are two hoses that serve for it, the latrines are next, I tell you since they are almost always overflowing, in the center is the kitchen, we all contribute with food, no matter if it is stolen or if it is expired, we always get something, there are small portions until it is finished, during the day we take care of also getting clothes and anything that benefits us. "Tomas explained.
For me everything was new and I could hardly think of the circumstances, without having any other place to go, I considered that getting used to it would be the right thing to do.
"Wow, I hope I can contribute something because certain places in the city are beyond my knowledge."
"Well boy, get out and get what you can." Tomas looked very calm, as if that was something normal, something that for me was something strange. Although, knowing my old life, I preferred this, much freer.
I hurried to leave the camp even with the clothes I had last night and started walking through the city where the buildings were huge and it seemed that people were rushing from one place to another, some wore precious clothes and others just went unnoticed. After several hours, I found the building of the previous day: "Black Diamond", I approached with caution and observed through the glass of a huge window, the showcases; one part was made up of women's dresses and the other with men's clothing, so you could see upstairs the corporate offices. There I saw how a boy ran to a luxurious vehicle, but none of that mattered to me and I kept walking towards one of the fruit squares.
I still carried my backpack and when I saw myself as a child they did not pay attention to me, so I was able to steal some fresh fruits. I was nervous, but I still managed to get some drinks, mainly juices. I ran to the camp below the bridge. It took me a few seconds to find Olivia, the woman smiled at me and then approached me and gave me a big hug. He had not noticed how late he had become that day.
"I was wondering if you would come back or not, how good you are here."
I kept quiet but that act gave me acertain warmth to my chest. Between us three we shared some things and then, wedecided to give something more to the kitchen. It was very different from myhome, it was my first vagabond day.
