Poate sunt pdsdri, de vreme ce au aripi! Un timp i-a tot cdutat cu privirea, crezdnd cd ii poate vedea pe undeva, prin apropiere.

Or maybe they are birds, since they have wings! She has kept on searching for them a while, thinkingthat she might see them around. But what could the girl possible find since she hasn't really known what angels are and how theylooklike?

OricAt cercetd, nu descoperi nicio inimd. se Bunicule, eu nu-mi vdd inima in oglindd! Roagd-te la ingerag sa-!i arate inima gi el!i-o va ardta. Raluca se asezd in genunchi, igi impreuni mainile in fata pieptului, dar mai departe nu stiu ce sd faci. il privi nedumeritd pe bunic, "What do you mean by pure heart? Should wash it as wash my face?" "Yes..., in a way..., but not with water and soap. The heart has to be washed of lying, meanness, attger, insolence..." "Do have a pure heart?" " don'tknow. What do youthink?" "Howcanlfind out?" "Lookinto the mirror!" Raluca ran to the mirror, but she saw just the same chubby face she has been familiar to. Even though she examined herself closely, she couldn't find any heart. "Grandpa, don't see my heart in the mirror!" "Pray to the little angel to show your heart and he will." Raluca knelt dowry folded her hands in what to do to grandpa intrebandu-se ce sd spund si cui, fiindcd nu vedeapenimeni. Cum sd mi rog, bunicule? sopti ea in cele din urmd, rusinatd.

Raluca rosti in soaptd rugdciunea, fiind atentd la fiecare cuvant si, dupd ce termind, wondering what to say and to whom, since she hasn't seen anybodythere. "Grandpa, how shall pray?" she asked ashamedinthe end. "Just like this, dear good child, follow my words: Angel, you, mykttle angel, You who're sent to me by God Alwaysbe alongmy soul And teach me how to do the good. am small, you make mebig, amweak, youmake me strong. Everytime you, please, follow me, And of evil, please, protect me Amen." Raluca whispered the prayet, paying attention to every word and at the end" she
