Quote by Héctor Torres

“Las medias, la franela, el sostén, parecían casas arrasadas por un huracán. Del otro lado del mundo la mamá insistía en decir cosas que ella no lograba descifrar. Se paró frente al espejo y se sobresaltó. Cada día lo mismo. La chica desnuda frente a sí le parecía tan distinta a la que era apenas uno, dos años atrás. No dejaba de asombrarle con qué prisa le crecían los pechos, con sus manchas oscuras que se derramaban espesamente, como sirop de chocolate.”

“His leg throbbed, but his heart felt lighter, and for the first time in years, the world seemed to be filled with possibility. “I love you,” he said. And he thought to himself, That makes five. Five times he’d said it. It wasn’t nearly enough. “And I love you.” She bent down and kissed his leg. He touched his face and felt tears. He hadn’t realized he was crying. “I love you,” he said again.”
