Prologue
THE CALL

The day was cloudy and the breeze touched Isadora's face while she walked slowly along the narrow streets of Bilbao. Soon, saw the church that found other day. Realized that, there was one design of a shell and an arrow. That image attracted her eyes like a magnet. The sweet and soft voice was manifested again:

"Pay attention to this arrow. Is a indication of the way you need follow to find what you seek. This is the way of the signs ..." The Way of Santiago”

Isadora stood for a few minutes in front of the arrow, thinking about those words. She looked around and saw no one. The streets were totally desolate and there was just her, her thoughts and arrow.

She looked at the sky and observed the contrast of the sun's rays passing through gray clouds, with a great light expanding itself in this afternoon. Isadora smiled seeing that wonderful landscape, wondering how God will also seemed to enjoy playing with his brushes and paints on the onscreen of universe, changing the color tone and contrast in brightness.

At that moment, she saw a green hill and the beautiful landscape. Admired, with a sense of peace and happiness, and looked at the horizon and the entire scenario and said to herself:

"Yes ... That's it ... I'll search what calls me!"

AS OF DIAMONDS

A great gold shines strongly before us.

The gold is a material element.

The energies and things take shape that we can touch and see in the exterior world in a concrete way.

Some days later the phone rings, it was Fernanda.

"Hi, it's fine" - Fernanda said, excited.

"Everything good! How are you? How long! "- Isadora said, happy to hear her friend's voice.

"It's true! When you come to visit me? "

"I'm resolving some things here, I believe that until tomorrow I can give you one answer."

"Come soon, I miss you ... I have many new features!"

"Me too. I'm in a beautiful city, however realized some strange things ... "

"Hum .. I think you should come out of there! "

"Take it easy, in one week I'm going. I want to see you! '

" I waiting for you !" - Fernanda said.

Isadora and Fernanda were following different ways at that moment, and occured to Isadora invite her friend to make the way.

"Could be fun ..." - she thought.

Soon after, Isadora recive one called by Javier from Malaga

"Hello girl, how are you? How is Bilbao? Do you liked"

"Okay, but I want to to request my transfer to another city. I'm getting a little bit uncomfortable here. "

"I told you ..." - Javier said, with a fatherly tone.

"I know ... how about Valencia? "- asked Isadora.

"It's a great city, but I have no vacancies there. I've got a vacancy in Granada, which is nearby. It is a touristic town, good for business. "

"I do not know ..."

"I like Granada. The people who working there liked enough."

"Could you transfer me ?"

"I'll check. Call me at the end of the day, I'll see what I can do."

"Combined"

Claudia was out with some friends who did that afternoon and Isadora returned home. Came into the room and looked at the screen that was behind the door. Raised it and propped it on the chair that was near the mirror. She walked away and looked at the screen for a few minutes. She approached slowly and stroked the screen with your hands, feeling the warmth of the fabric. Trying feeling the screen, the image of Mark came up with his voice saying: "- You should rethink your work!"

The memories of those words and his sarcastic, laughter make the sadness and sense of helplessness block the good feelings. Getting back yourself, she put the screen back on behind the door. "- I can’ t break free myself ... I need more time! "- she thought.

With slow steps Mrs. Helen stepped up to the bedroom and saw that Isadora was sitting on the bed, with head down.

"Can I enter, girl?"

"Hi Mrs. Helen, yes you can." - said, wiping away tears.

"Can I help you? Are you missing home? "

"Yes, I am." - Isadora said, wanting to disguise the sadness.

"But is that all?"

" Yes, you can stay peaceful. I'm a little sensitive today, that days... you know..."

"Be calm. Here in Spain we said that

"Every one passes for what need passes". Sometimes destiny wanted to teach something ... "

"Yes Mrs. Helen, but the heart neither always listen the reason."

"I know baby, I have more than sixtheen years old, I am widow, I have children and I know about the life. Can I be of another generation, but I know little things about the heart and about the people. "

Mrs. Helen approached to Isadora and took her hand.

"Do you write with the right hand or left?"

"Right hand."

She turned palm of hand upward and spent some time observing, and talked seriously.

"You have a water hand . You are intuitive, compassionate and emotional, with notable artistic skills. "

"You understand about chiromancy? - Isadora said, impressed. "

"Let me see what are saying your lines."

Rubbing the hands lightly, feeling the energy and looked at the lines.

"You have a healthy ego, and balanced leadership skills, and sometimes,, assume more responsibility than is necessary ... wants to embrace the world. It's sociable, with good artistic sense and has great communication skills. At the heart line, I see that you have a great underlying harmony with the people and higher emotional sensitivity is faithful and passionate. It's fun and sociable, but tends to be idealistic in your relationships ... beware ... sometimes you are very picky! "

Mrs. Helen stopped talking and kept reading the lines. Isadora was intrigued, but left she free to say what she saw. Know that could not interrupt the intuition already know how it manifested itself, and should be respect your time. So Mrs. Helen kept her reading slowly.
