Night was falling in Lagoa da Italianinha, and Fábia, a beggar known as "mendigata," was very hungry, as she hadn't eaten all day because she had no change.
She was near Quitéria's snack bar, where she, her daughter, and some siblings lived upstairs, one of them being Cássia, the eccentric one.
Cássia saw Fábia from afar through the window, picked out some food, went downstairs, and delivered it to the beggar. Fábia said:
"My goodness, how did you know I was hungry?"
"I don't know, I just felt it..."
"Thank you so much, Cássia, I don't even know how to thank you."
Cássia also gave her 20 reais and said:
"This is for you to have dinner later and breakfast tomorrow. If you need anything, I'll talk to Quitéria."
"Thank you so much."
Cássia returned happy, having helped those in need, while Fábia enjoyed the food, quite content. Fábia even said:
- They say she's a little crazy, but what she lacks in craziness, she makes up for in a kind heart...
