A love story


Do you remember Mr. Boggis? Yes the man who used to wear a disguise to cheat people with the objective to make business related to pieces of furniture. Well, time after his failed story with “The Chippendale Commode” in which he had to see his future fortune broken in huge pieces of the commode he anxiously wanted, he had to returned to the reality and follow to devise to cheat people around London getting what he wanted. Well this success changed everything, I will tell you why. Mr Boggis was a smart kid, his parents knew from the beginning he will be really intelligent in his entire life to take good decisions to be the best in whatever he wanted and so he does. Boggis grew up and he was the best in his studies in London and his parents and whole family where very proud of him. But something happened when he was teenager. He met a girl, a beautiful girl as smart as him. They met while they were making charity activities with father McKenzie, the priest of the nearest church in London, England. He saw her and immediately fell in love.They started to chat everyday and every moment they could be together. She fell in love too. They lived the best summer together ever and they became a couple and also friends. Until she had to come back to her country. Yes, she came from Ireland to visit her relatives in London and he didn’t know that, until that moment. When he realized about their reality, he was the saddest boy in the world. She wouldn’t come back ever. She should have to help her father with the company of furniture. Girl’s father has this company far away from Dublin, in a town called Cork where they live too. So they had to come back as soon as possible to Ireland because of the company’s clients. The couple was quite sad but they had to go away anyway because their lives where distant. He was unhappy, very unhappy, and the time passed and his sadness didn’t stop. He started to think lots of ways to travel and be with her, but he couldn’t because he had a future in London, according to what his parents wanted. But his interests changed and he didn’t want to be that kind of professional anymore. He wanted to make up something. Something related to her, something her family would accept and love. That will be… the most beautiful piece of furniture that anybody had seen ever. That would capture the attention of the world, and most important, the irish girl’s attention. But he should start seeing if he could be able to do that kind of talented creations working with specifically wood. So the time passed and he started to work with wood to continue with oak and other kinds of strong materials. He wanted then to demonstrate to his parents that he didn’t want to continue his studies at the university, instead that, he would be an artist. However they hated the idea. Boggis had to take a decision and had to leave the house as soon as possible. He had to organize himself and had to think about some issues that in his past life were his parents’ issues. How could he get enough money for living? With which money he could eat every day? Where he will live? These ones were questions that he wondered for a long time, but well, his love for her were bigger than everything. But his interests changed once again. Time passed and Boggis became the man you knew at Preacher’s Delight story. Actually his job became to be his life! His pieces of furniture were his passion nowadays and all his life was related to his business. His love for the Irish girl disappeared for him… well… that was what he thought and felt. So after the episode of the commode, he realized his job turned a lie because he suddenly started to cheat people and he turned his job only to business and win money instead what was deeply in his heart: creation. So time after the story of the commode that you know, in fact, he decided to return to what he really used to enjoy. He ment his workshop to start with the creation because he knew he developed a special talent. Many months later, he had enough different pieces of furniture to buy or make an exposition. Which would be the best option?
One day he saw on the newspaper about an exhibition of wood pieces of furniture. He received this as a sign and of course and decided to go, because something tells him he had to be there. So the day of the exhibition came and he went with his best pieces of furniture, beautiful pieces made with the best oak and the best details. Being there he realized his work was really different than the others. His were original and made with natural materials with a stamp and not like the others that were simple and commercial. He was free of clients who were asking and buying his work since he came, when suddenly a wonderful woman arrived to his place. He saw her and discovered immediately who was. How do not remember her spectacular blue eyes? Whose shy expression in her face used to drive him crazy the warm days during that summer… it wasn’t any doubt and nothing had changed in their hearts… they were still in love with each other and life wouldn’t get apart again…

The book The Jack Randa Hotel made me think about what I want to my future. Ok I would like to be a professional with a lot of tittles to get a good job. I like the idea about teaching in a University because I could treat with people who will be interested in the language of English no like in a school where the students are there by obligation. So I would like that after my many trips around the world to improve my skills. But the thing is that is not the only aspect that I want in my life. I have been living my life with a wonderful family and they are my support whenever and wherever I am so is also something that I want to have… a family. But how could I have these BIG things good together? Could I? it’s really difficult I mean a good professional getting a lot of job needs a lot of time to do the things. For example a good doctor is working in a hospital full time and he doesn’t have the time for other things out of his work! So that disgusting! But the person that is working part time can take care the house, children, etc. So which will be my choice? That’s a really difficult decision and sometimes we can’t choose too. What about the big mistakes that people do?. So that makes you stop with your plans to the future. I can see that in my parents. My mother was pregnant when she was at university so she had to pause her career. Then she never came back because she wanted to be with her first daughter, also then I arrived so the family was complete. But she couldn’t continue with her studies so she had to wait time later to do it to be the teacher that she is. I think is what she did but I don’t want that. The thing is that I need to find a husband, a great husband to be with me in my family and the things that I want to my future… a husband like my dad. But I think nowadays doesn’t exist…

my future?
