About a Miserly Father Hello. I will continue writing the character's profiles I told you about last week. Actually I was thinking about it and the word "profile" doesn't fit to what I have done with the mother in a previous notebook entry. I would say is more a brief description than a profile. It is now the turn of the father. The father's name is Rodrigo. He was raised in a middle class family. His father was very strict and his mother was never in home since she spent much time working in a hairdressing. Rodrigo just like his parents, was very religous and conservative. While he didn't love his parents so much he did knew that he had to do it because of the fourth commandment, and his believening in a christian god. He worked in a delivery office, where at first he had to hand out some packages and letters and things like that. He got married with a religious woman (Patricia, the conservative mother). Some months later she gave birth to a girl. The second child -a boy- would come in four years. There were many times during his childhood and youth when Rodrigo thought to himself that he was going to be an affectionate father however both his overwhelming working pace and his concern about family made him forget this porpuse and as time went by, he found himself being as strict as his father was. Although Rodrigo had a respectable income, he was reluctant to waste it, even putting it into bank account. He decided to save the money in the house, inside a deposit box in his bendroom. One day, his young son (tired of his father's stinginess) took all the money away and went on a trip alone. The story I want to write begins when Patricia dies. Rodrigo realize that he didn't spent enough time and money with his family and feel regret about that. What he wants now is to have another chance, to step back in time. Thanks for your help.
