She has stood out as a professional in the area of ​​special education. Their most common interests are based on the desire to write and develop narrative productions that have never been published before.

Romina, walking down the street, goes to the market, is thinking about what to do to overcome the economic situation they live ... with the purpose of helping her children to study and prepare for a university career. Many thoughts come to his minds that arise from the critical situation that all Venezuelans experience.

When she arrives at the market, she meets a former student who never forgot her, since according to the young man she was a sensitive and very understanding teacher.

Romina looks at him and suddenly says

"You are José, my tremendous ... my restless child!" They hug each other and immediately begin to talk.

Meanwhile, José tells him:

- How to forget my beloved teacher, who showed me in such a delicate way how I should behave in life, I still remember all her advice_ and he hugged her again.

Then Romina replied:

- I also remember a lot about you and let me tell you that you are beautiful, you are already a good man and tell me!

- Tell me what are you currently doing?

The young man replies:

_I study fifth semester of systems engineering and I am preparing a plan to kill Nicolás Maduro ... - Hahahaha and he laughs when he sees Romina's surprised face.--

Romina tells him:

_ Boy do not say that or jokingly they can listen to you and you know that they can take you to prison!

The boy responds:

_Unfortunately my dear teacher is true, but how I would like to make him pay for everything that man has done to us. - José tells him -

-I am 22 years old and I work independently to pay for my studies in systems engineering and help with my house expenses.

- My mother lives in constant worry since my father had to go to Colombia to work and now he is ill and wants to come, but he has to gather a good amount of money to be able to travel. Since when crossing the Simón Bolívar bridge in Cúcuta, the Venezuelan guards, in each alcabala that they stop, charge the passengers and the driver for vaccinations, that is why it is very expensive to return, and that increases my mother's anxiety even more. She is very sad and distressed by my father's illness and lack of money...

- With tears in his eyes, José says goodbye to his beloved teacher and Romina, wrapped in sadness, gathers up her courage and responds to the young man.

- Never allow the situation that all Venezuelans are experiencing to take away your peace, fight for your dreams and every morning when you get up hold on to God to keep you firm and full of great strength ...

Then they hug goodbye, and Romina with a confident expression on her face says:

- And you know ... don't let them take away your peace at any time! Keep going, because I am sure that you will be a winner ...

Suddenly Romina, realizes that it is already too late and has not yet bought anything in the market, however. He thinks that he carries so little money that he can only buy 2 items. That alone was what he was able to buy with his salary as a teacher with 19 years of service.
