One Saturday in Lagoa da Italianinha, Cassia left home without telling anyone and went to a place no one would expect: she went to a mud pit and dove into it until she was completely covered in mud.
Some people passed by and laughed at her. Cassia said:
- What are you looking at???? My happiness can't be a joke to anyone.
One of the women said:
- Is your happiness getting covered in mud like a pig?
- Getting wet, getting dirty, getting covered in mud, getting rained on, that's happiness for me, yes.
- Poor thing, so disturbed.
The woman left, and Cassia didn't even care about the criticism and continued having fun. At the end of the afternoon, Cassia arrived home, and Quitéria, her sister, said:
- What's that pigsty smell, Cassia? And why are you all muddy?
- I had so much fun in the mud, I loved it!!!!!
- Well, take a bath to get rid of that stink!
Cássia went to take a bath, clothes and all, and washed off all the mud. But she couldn't stop smiling.
