April 2 | 365 Days of Writing Prompts | Prized possession: Describe an item you were incredibly attached to as a child. What became of it?
In my childhood, every day before bed — I cannot precise at which time — the national TV would broadcast a small clip for kids, I don’t know if they still do it. The purpose of this clip was to say that was time to go to sleep. In my time, it was called Vitinho (diminutive for Vitor (Victor) in Portuguese).
Back then, I had a piece of merch of Vitinho, it was a small pillow (not made for sleep on). For every place I went, I would take Vitinho with me. When my mother wanted to wash it was a drama, I am not sure if for some time I had two pillows, one was a backup for the washing time.
