Yumi’s two friends told her that if the new classmates asked where they were from, they should never say that, from the countryside, they felt that was a disgrace, and they also did not want to feel less than their classmates, for them it was important to have the same level, that is, city dwellers. , and be included without difficulty. Tomasa and Celina, when the teacher told them to introduce themselves and where they came from, they said that they were from a big city. There was no reaction from their classmates. When it was time for Yumi to introduce herself, she told them with great pride that she had been born and He lived in the countryside, his parents were coffee and banana pickers. That was magical, the classmates in the class looked at her with pleasure and one of the classmates asked her teacher if they could ask questions, she allowed it, that morning all the concerns were for Yumi, they wanted to know what it was like to live in the country, if she knew planting coffee, which was what she missed most about the countryside, if they had welcomed her well in the city, in short, between question and answer the whole morning passed. When it was time for break they went to her to ask her out, and she was one of the girls who made friends with her the easiest. Her companions at the exit, somewhat upset, told her why she had not said the same thing as them and Yumi responded: My parents taught me to feel proud of my origin, I feel worthy of being a peasant, we contribute a lot to society, We bring food to people’s tables, so why should I remain silent if I am happy to be who I am? Celina and Tomasa looked at her and felt sorry for her friend Yumi. From that moment on they never again denied her origin and wherever they went they said it with great dignity.
