Chapter 3 bark like a dog

bark like a dog I didn't write a word in my diary for two weeks.Because, since I fell into the river that day, and then slipped out of bed, sweating and catching cold, I fell ill.Coralto came to see me twice a day.He was so nice to me and I felt sorry for him because I freaked him out that night.How many days will it take for my illness to recover? ... This morning, I heard Ada and Virginia talking in the hallway. Of course, I want to hear what they have to say?It turned out that they were going to hold a dance at home.

Today, I feel so good physically that I want to wake up.Around three o'clock in the afternoon, I heard Catalina coming up the stairs. She had come to bring me refreshments.I was tired of lying on the bed, so I hid behind the door in one of my mother's black shawls.When she came in, I barked like a dog and rushed up from behind her... How do you think she will be frightened? …She was so scared that she smashed the coffee pot to pieces, spilling coffee and milk on the rug my mother bought for me yesterday.Again the fool cried out so loudly that father, mother, sisters, cook, and Giovanni all ran up-stairs, not knowing what had happened.
