The weather was hot that morning in Ituzaingó city. The forecast announced that it was going to rain during the night. That was the reason why Mrs. Maria saw a long active file of ants carrying pieces of leaves to their homes. That situation worried Maria because she thought about her favourite roses. In desperation, she went to the garage to get the ant poison.
When Maria came back to the garden, she saw her roses completely eaten by the ants. Those roses have been the last gift that her mother had given her before she died. Suddenly, a feeling of gloom and depression involved her. She went to the kitchen and prepared some tea but instead of sugar she used the ant poison. Without hesitating she had two cups of it.
During the afternoon the hungry red ants entered Maria’s house as always and went around the death body.
“Why is she so quiet?” asked one of the ants.
“Oh! Mrs. Maria has died!” shouted another ant.
“What‘s wrong with that?” said little Red ant “It makes room for new people”.
