I liked my master a lot but kept it in a secret because he was married. One night there were only two of us and I confessed to him. He responded to me, and we spent a passionate night, without protection. I was afraid of possible consequences and prayed to Saint Bruno. The saint worked the miracle and I didn’t get pregnant. Otherwise the mistress would have been furious and would have fired me. I bring this humble retablo.
