Life can play tricks on us, show us a dangerous path that seems to have everything to go wrong, yet still seems to be our only alternative. At the same time, it can also show us loopholes that give us hope and the opportunity to do things differently. It is not always easy. In fact, it can be quite difficult, if you don't give up, you can be rewarded in the end.
Alana learned this in a tortuous way, letting herself be guided by her emotions, not only of desire, the will to be happy, but also by fear, which made her path a little longer and filled with stones, which delayed the arrival to her happy ending.
Alana Souza was a beautiful woman, small with her 1.59 height, with beautiful green eyes, straight black hair and dark skin. A simple woman, who has lost a lot throughout her life, but who still faces it with a smile on her face, letting her sadness out only when no one else is watching. She is strong and she knows it, despite her barriers.
The fact that she always walked around smiling and never mentioned any problem in her life in public, made people think that Alana was perfect, just like her life was too, without problems or traumas, but the truth was far from that. She was like any other woman, with her problems and reflections of each day, within the safety of her home.
The difference between her and many others her age was that her torment had started when she was 18 years old. It wasn't just any problem, though. Her first challenge came in the form of an accident. At a short age, Alana was in an accident with her parents and a five-year-old sister, in which she was the only survivor.
The accident made many think that fate didn't seem to be willing to let Alana be just a normal girl, but she was persistent and never gave up on anything despite the trauma and the longing that was ever-present in her chest ever since.
How she managed it, she had no idea, but when she woke up in the hospital and found out what had happened to her family, she regretted not going with them, it seemed unfair that only she was there, alive and with a broken arm, but Alana always overcomes her problems. Gradually that wound was healing.
However, a year later, Alana found out that she could never have children, not even if she really wanted one someday. It was okay at first, after all she was only 19, she didn't think and didn't want to have children at that moment, but time passes.
Unfortunately, as the years went by, things took a different turn. Something inside her was changing and that truth began to be a weight in her life. Not being able to have children interfered mainly with the dating issue, a topic that was not going well at all.
Many a courtship has ended the moment the young woman finally told the truth that had been plaguing her in difficult days. Her first boyfriend broke up with her because he wanted to have children in the future. The last one, who seemed perfect, after all he couldn't have children either and much less wanted that burden in his life, as he always used to say, turned out to be something completely different. Not always what they say in a moment of emotion is usually true, as Alana learned the hard and painful way.
But Alana spent her life smiling, with friends who became her family, who understood her moments of smiling and silence, but trouble would always follow her, no matter where the young woman went. They would never give her respite and all she had to do was face them, head on, no matter how much fear she felt inside.
Sometimes she wondered if she would ever be fully happy, if she could look back at her days and not see the ones where sadness consumed her, but they were questions that for a long time remained unanswered, that Alana learned by living and that is the reason why everything changed.
Alana was 25 and her life was finally going to change and all Alana had to ask herself was how much of her past she could reveal before it was all lost again. Would she give up her happiness for the truth? There was only one way to find out and she was willing to risk it. For the right people, this woman would risk everything.
