Andrés knew himself to be a warrior.
Nevertheless, with his origin-home
evaporating, his business in ruins,
his bed empty of a lover, his art
leaden and dim – loss and emptiness
rushed in, threatening to overwhelm
his pride.
The visage of his father flashed. He heard the dead man’s bitter curse: "Thirty-nine years old and fucking worthless – I knew you’d end up like this."
Rallying, Andrés whispered, “My house on the mountainside burned down. So? The foundation is untouched. Get out of the way.”
His car sat at the curb fifteen feet along, loaded with possessions for summer. He strode to it with grim confidence, climbed in, set it alight, and shot into the stream of vehicles rushing to leave the great city through a tunnel under its river.
