A mother opened the door to her home after a long day at work and found something she wasn’t expecting.

Her daughter, just 9 years old, Prisci Noriega, was waiting for her with the food prepared. Without anyone asking her to, the girl had decided to give her mom a break, as she goes out every day in search of a better future for the family.

Prisci couldn’t hold back her tears. Between sobs and with a trembling voice, she said: “You’re crazy, you can’t wait for me like this, you’re 9 years old”. The little girl replied very simply: “Because I love you”.

The moment was shared by @prisci_noriega on Instagram and surpassed 14 million views. Thousands of people left comments saying their eyes filled with tears.
