Three poor pineapples… but with the forehead and high
Valeria—the eldest—was studious and strong. From a young age she helped her father in the workshop, cleaning and arranging tools.
Camila —the one in the middle— was brilliant with numbers. She loved doing the accounts every time a client arrived.
Sofia —the youngest— was quiet, loved books, and spent her afternoons reading on the small porch of the house.
The three of them went to school in worn-out shoes and backpacks given to them by neighbors. But they never missed a class.
The day the three were accepted at the National Autonomous University of Mexico in Mexico City, Rafael sat in front of his house and cried like a child.
—I couldn’t give them wealth… I just hope they are good women.
The three of them hugged him tightly.
—Dad, we will not allow you to lower your head for us again.
30 years later…
Valeria became the founder of an important group, a designer specialized in social housing.
Camila directed a technological investment fund and appeared frequently in economic magazines.
Sofia was the director of a private educational chain and was recognized as one of the most outstanding young businesswomen in Mexico.

The day they took his father to live with them in a large mansion on the outskirts of Mexico City, Rafael continued to get up early, prepare coffee and clean the chairs as when he lived in Veracruz.
The old village house remained intact. They didn’t sell it. They didn’t remodel it. It was a sacred memory that nobody dared to touch.
And it was precisely then… when Marisol appeared.
Marisol appeared on a gray afternoon, when the sky over Mexico City seemed about to burst into rain.
