Josephine, the snake's mom “If I disappear do not look for me,” those were the words that my mom said before I left her house. Lately, she always wanted to be accompanied. I thought as she was 75 years and she was depressed for the death of my father a long time ago, maybe she only wanted to draw my attention. Three days after I called her, but she never answered my calls. After a week, I came back to call her; I texted her, and she didn’t answer me. So, I had to go to her house. When I went into, the house had a bit of a musty smell. Everything was in disorder, I started to worry me, so I climbed the stairs and looked for in her room. I only found to Josephine, her big yellow python, who always slept with my mom, and, now I remember she had grown up since the last time I saw her. In this moment, Josephine was laid in the bed, she was wearing a bathrobe of my mom and she had a mysterious smile. Almost a year after her disappearance, there is no trace of my mom, the police continue finding. My only solace is Josephine, who now sleeps with me and I don’t know the reason, but I think she smells like my mother.
