A young woman I work with is an illegal immigrant. She came from Peru following a vision from her Godfather who lives in a mansion around Montu Pichu on the money he earns reading cards and telling the future. Within months of arriving in New York City she met a white man who earned a living as a Queens police officer. He frequented the Mexican restaurant where she worked. It was rocky after a camera caught her and an unrelenting, admiring co-worker getting it on in the storage room. The police officer acted devastated. She vowed to make it up to him. He pushed her away (while still allowing congegal visits). She fell in love. She stayed past her time. It turned out, he was unfaithful to her the whole time and moved in with an older, Columbian woman, in a nice house, somewhere in Long Island. During the end, she tried impregnate herself by collecting the white mans seed from her pants and well, you can imagine the rest. The godfather on the mountain foresaw this, well partially. He told her she would meet a white man in uniform within months of moving to a foreign land.
Months later, while still mourning the white man, (whom she said so closely resembled myself, it made it difficult for her to look at me) she met another. The new man was tall and rich. Although she was only attracted to white men, she hesitated to call him white because he was "Jewess". He had a house in the Dominican and did a lot of business with Spanish speaking countries. He had two yachts. He spoke spanish to her. She fell in love. The godfather foresaw this and said she would bare a child from either a white man in uniform or a rich man, the decision would be a struggle for her.
She tells me she is planning a trip to Miami, with her friends. They will fly down but she will take a 14 hour bus because she cannot board a plane without identification. She's sad I'm moving to Kansas- says I've taught her to speak English. Of course, I hardly taught her anything, only struggled to understand and incorporated hand gestures into my conversations. her back has been hurting her, she just wants to relax and sit in the sun. She says she is taking a break from men. She is healing her heart. She joined a church. The church does not believe in anything her godfather told her. They say it is all evil and now, well, she seems scared.
