Hope and Deception

They had arrived to Naidakan, a country that for Amilkar, was only a temporary refuge, but for

his family it meant the new home; their future, the rest of their life. Walking around the house,

watching his children, he felt unable to plan or schedule future activities. He did not know in

practice the society's usages; through the studies he learned about history and customs.

Amilkar's concern was how to instruct his children when he did not know what this world had

for him and his family.

At one point, he got a phone call that woke up his spirit and enthusiasm. It was an employment

interview offer. He prepared himself, and visited the place he had been informed, punctual and

dressed up as he used to. At the first sight, the interviewer smiled at him in a sarcastic way,

telling him that he did not need such clothes to clean desks or wash floors.
