A Matias loved to play ball. It was what he liked to do in life. His mom let him play in the door with his friends and Enrique Joaquín, but only when carried BENONE.
One afternoon, Matu had treated more than BENONE, the mother let out to play around. But neither Henry nor Joaquin had completed the task, and their mother wanted nothing to do with the ball. It was so, despite having carried more than BENONE, Matias got bored and abandoned a puppet.
Sitting on the doorstep, seeing the people go, cars, bikes, boys ... and evening.
It was almost time to go to drink milk when it passed a tall, skinny, very skinny. So weak that their legs were tangled in walking. He had orange hair all tousled, and some little glasses round and green. Underarm had some folders and books.
thought He sees Mati, which is one of those big guys are already the secondary.
When Colorado was the kid on the corner waiting to cross the green light, reached into the back pocket of his trousers, and looking for some money to travel and, when taken out, flew around a pencil as long and as thin as he . A Matu gave much amused to see how he jumped the yellow pencil, which gave around and around until it hit the floor and broke. The boy looked up, saw it was broken and kept going, leaving him on the sidewalk. Matu
Then came to him (in pencil, not the skinny guy) and picked up where it left the tip (broken, but end to end). It was sooo cute! Matu had never seen a pen like this: all black and with beautiful silvery snake went round and round about him. Concentrate on these thoughts
Mati was when she heard her mother calling him to take milk. She looked at the piece of pencil in his hand, put it in his pocket and ran a picnic: the collision of silver would pencil his big secret. Especially since Mom always told him not to pick things off the floor.
After milk, Matu cleaned it up, he took a very sharp tip and put it in his holster at school.
The next day, Matu was about to leave for college when he told his mother:
"Wait, Mom, I think I forgot something.
he ran into the room, opened the bag, opened the pouch and found that silver pen still there. So yes, it was heading to school, ready to release there such a jewel.
- It'll be the envy of all my friends! - thought as he walked from his mother's hand. Matu
sat next to Germain. After Fernanda, the teacher, greeted everyone and told them to take off their supplies, was the best moment: Mati opened his pouch and showed his treasure Germi: silver pen! Germi was stunned to see such beauty.
- lent it to me? "I can try? Will you let me see it up close? "I whispered in his ear.
- But no, Germi! Can not you see I have not premiered? Then you borrow it, "he said Matu, well short to not hear that Fernanda. Of course, so much talk, it was they who did not listen what Fernanda had said
-Take out a slip that we will make a dictadito. Fer
always spoke well, narrowing things: notebook, quizzes. Seem silly, but Matu thought that way everything became easier. When Matu Germi and finally learned the dictation, Matu decided it was a good time to release the stylus. There
problems started. Fernanda
said
-put title "Dictation", and Matthew wrote "Master ugly." Matu did not understand what was happening, but as Fernanda began to dictate, he had no choice but to start writing. What follows is dictated Fernanda took them:
"Yesterday I received a visit from a neighbor. His name is Sebastian. We played a while in the garden. Then, as we were hungry, we asked Mom to serve us milk. It was all very rich, especially the chocolate cake that Mom cooked just for us. "
And this is what you Matías (from the hand of his silver pen) wrote:
" Today the teacher is uglier than ever. His nose is an eggplant and his eyes two fried eggs. When he speaks, it's like cackle. But those who are the hens cluck and Fernanda is more horrible than a chicken. "Matu
When finished writing this, I could not believe what they read his eyes. Just then rang the bell and Fer, sweet as ever, went through all the banks to collect the "leaves of dictaditos."
- What's the matter, Mati? He asked when he noticed that he, instead of going out to recess, stayed rooted to the bench.
-Nnnada, nnnada are-you-miss, "said Matu.
"Anyway ... Fer thought. He sat at the desk to correct the dictates while the kids played at recess. Matu
not stop her. And Fernanda corrected and corrected. Until it suddenly began to turn white ... yellow ... red ... violet ... He raised his head and stared at Mathias, who sat in place. They stared for a while, until Fernanda cried
- Matias Ledesma! I want standing next to my desk now! Fer
muuuuuuuuuuy was angry. Otherwise, at least would have said "escritorito." Matu walked slowly, slower than the last time you went into the doctor to give him a shot.
- What does this mean? Fernanda asked, his face still red with anger. Mati
not know how to explain what had happened. Where to begin? How can you believe? How can we start talking (Because he felt that the voice did not come out of the throat)? Matu While thinking all this time passed and the face of Fernanda became more and more red. Matu For a moment he thought he would explode. When she felt she could say a word, Matu coughed a little, ahem, ahem, and said
-yy-yy-I-I did not have the cul-fault, ma'am, Miss Fff-ffer. Fu-fu, was the la-la-pen ...
- Oh, yeah? Fernanda cried. So lend me your pencil to write a big one. Matu
could hardly take any more tears. But as he did not like being seen mourn at school and just getting the boys were returning recess, endured and endured. He went to his bank to find the pencil and Fernanda took him to put him ... to put it ... the one! Fernanda
grabbed the pen and all the rage in the world wrote: "Congratulations! You got a 10. "Matías jumped for joy. I could not believe. And I could not believe Fernanda. At that moment came Matilde, Mrs. director. All the boys stood and saluted:
-Bue-we-gave-as-you-no-ra-Ma-til-de.
"Good morning, boys," she said, and began chatting with Fernanda, who was still a little nervous. Matu Fer asked to leave his seat and was talking to Matilda. In that Matilda gave him a sheet for the complete Fer with your data:
Teacher Name: Address
teacher: teacher
Phone:
teacher Document Number:
Fernanda was so distracted with everything had happened that did not even notice that grabbed the pen of Matthias to fill the role of Matilde. And Matilda could not believe what they read their eyes
Teacher Name: Matilde is a witch.
Master Address: Matilde has the face of a hippopotamus. Teacher
Phone: Matilde rhino has a tail.
teacher Document Number: Matilde talks like a parrot.
The children were Matilda was turning white ... yellow ... red .... violet ... as she read the role of Fernanda. And Fer was so pale and hard as Mati had been a little while ago.
- Miss Fernanda, the same hope and guidance! Matilda cried. And left the room spitting fire from his mouth. Fernanda shaking followed with the silver pen in his hand. Matias did not know where to go. It felt awful to think it was all his fault. Once
Address, Fernanda did not know how to explain what had happened. Where to begin? How can you believe? How to get started to speak (because he felt that the voice did not come out of the throat)? While Fer thought all this time passed and Matilda's face was becoming more and more red. Fer thought for a moment to explode. When she felt she could say a word, Fer coughed a little-ahem, ahem, and said
-Yy-y-yo-yo-no-blame culture I was, ma'am, Mrs. MMMA-Mmmatt-ttilde. Fu-fu, was the la-la-pencil.
- Ah, yes - cried Matilda. "Then lend me your pencil to write a pretty big suspension. Matilde
grabbed the pen and all the rage in the world wrote:
"To the best teacher of the school, with all the love and admiration of Matilda. "
had hardly finished when the phone rang, and it was fortunate because it gave the opportunity to escape Fer, before Matilda could stop him. It was then with the cards in hand, back to the classroom where the boys were waiting screaming and throwing chalk and paper airplanes.
When hung up, Matilde again found alone in the management, not knowing what to think. He had the silver pen in his right hand. And I watched, and watched him ... And stayed that way until it was time to go. Then put it in the portfolio for further consideration at home, where he had a microscope very powerful.
entered the subway and had so many people who traveled all the time stopped and squeezed. When he reached his station had to be lead to the shoving to get to the door. It was there that, without noticing, dropped the pen is silver briefcase.
Although many people passed on it, and some stepped, still bright and intact when the father got off the subway Matu, about an hour after Matilda, and found him.
- How nice silver pen! He thought. I'm going to take a gift Mati. You'll love!
When dad came home, I called him and secretly Matu said
"I found this pencil on the floor of the subway station and I brought you a gift. But: do not tell mom anything because they will get angry if he finds out I brought you something from the floor. Put it in your holster and you take him to school and brings you luck in testing Fernanda ...
