While relaxing in Santiago de Cali- the largest city in southwest Columbia, Camilla had the privilege of being invited to a fancy ball, because of the connections she had made in the country. Many important heads of state were going to be there, including a handsome military man named General Grandes. As she descended the wide staircase to enter the ballroom, she was wearing a long black evening gown. She felt like Cinderella just before being introduced to her charming prince. Gracefully Camilla descended the staircase. As she did, her eyes suddenly met those of the General's. He was captivated by her, seemingly powerless to release his gaze from her
beauty. They danced and talked throughout the night as if they had known each other for decades. Both were a great match- not only physically but intellectually as well. It had been awhile since Camilla had felt this close to a man. She realized how much she had missed keeping company with a person of the opposite gender. In what seemed like no time at all, General Grandes had swept her off her feet. They had a speedy courtship, leading to a quick marriage. But sadly, Camilla discovered she didn’t know the General as well as she thought she did. Real life is rarely like fairy tales. As it turned out, he was also married to two other wives who lived in different places. When Camilla found out the truth, she knew it was time to return to the states.
