Nadie Me Contestó

Ana María era una niña muy inteligente; ella tenía 2 años de edad. Un día, jugando en su casa con sus juguetes, se encontró un teléfono. Lo tomó en sus manos, al igual que unos lentes de color morado de modelo retro de los años 60’s, que después se los puso. Y luego, según ella, empezó a hablar por teléfono.

La niña, decía: ”¡Mamá, buenoooo! ¡Nana, buenoooo! ¡Papá, buenoooo! ¡Samy, buenoooo! ¡Regi, buenoooo!”. En ese instante, su madre la escuchó que estaba tratando de comunicarse con su familia; pero Ana María no tuvo contestación por parte de nadie.

Entonces, ella le preguntó: ”¿No te contesta nadie?”. En ese mismo momento, la pequeña volteó a ver a su madre, diciendo: ¡Noooo!, y abriendo sus brazos, al mismo tiempo, repitió: ”¡Noooo!”.

De inmediato, su mamá le volvió a preguntar: ”¿No te contestaron?”. Y la niña, de nuevo, dijo: ¡Noooo!, pero esta vez, la astuta pequeña, se quitó los anteojos morados al contestar, y luego se los volvió a poner con un gesto de preocupación.

La madre de Ana María se soltó riendo al mirar la reacción de la precoz niña.
