The story begins with a man who did not trust his wife. Although they had been married for seven years, he constantly feared that she might misuse money or betray his confidence. Because of this fear, he made a decision that would later change his life forever. Instead of keeping his salary with his wife or managing it together, he secretly sent his entire monthly salary to his mother so she could keep it safe.
At first, he believed this was the smartest decision. He thought his mother would protect his savings and that everything would be secure. Meanwhile, his wife continued living with very little money. Every month he only gave her a small amount for household expenses. Despite this, she never complained. She worked hard to manage the home and make the money last.
His wife, Lucía, was not a glamorous woman, but she was kind, patient, and hardworking. She tried her best to keep peace in their home. Sometimes she sold clothes online to earn extra money. Other times she gave private lessons at night. With the little money she had, she paid for their son’s school, the rent, electricity, gas, and food. She carried many responsibilities without asking for more.
