Angolan Short Stories: The bag full of dreams

The bag full of dreams

Finding an almost undamaged bag in this amalgam of smoking debris is like a dream come true for him. What could it contain? Did the owner forget something valuable in it when he threw it away? Is today his lucky day? His dreams vanished quickly, the bag has nothing to offer him. All that remains for him is to continue walking barefoot through the smoldering ashes, looking for anything that will finally sparkle in his eyes and bring a smile to his face.
