Free A New Life by Lucy Appadoo Page B

time, she had been close to death. She had certainly felt weightless, like being in another dimension. She realised now that the woman had been sent here to give her the message it wasn't her time to go yet. It was an amazing thought. She would hold this situation close to her heart.
                  Valeria's reverie was broken when Roberto arrived and kissed her warmly on the lips. He brought Maria in the pram and lifted her out so that Valeria could hold her in bed. Valeria stroked her daughter's cheek and kissed her lovingly.
                  “How are you feeling, darling?”
                  Valeria recounted her experience, and Roberto smiled. “You have an angel by your side.”
                  Valeria's heart warmed. It had felt surreal and magical. “How are you?”
                  “I'm fine, but missing you.” He winked. “Anyway, the doctors say you don't have to stay more than a few days.”
                  “That's great. I miss you all so much.”
                  “And we've missed you too. More than you know.” Roberto lay beside her on the bed and they gently embraced.
    Valeria looked back over the past year of her life and realised that she'd achieved quite a few things. She thought about how her business was slowly building and how she would eventually need another seamstress to keep up with the increasing orders. Angela was helping out on a part-time basis. Roberto was also starting his carpentry apprenticeship soon, and Valeria was planning to get her driver's licence. She realised that Australia was her new, cherished life and she would be forever grateful to her parents for the experience.
