❤️ It’s impossible for me not to fall in love with the woman at the center of the story. Her ex is a turd and a bully who tears her down but she is so full of innocence, so unaware of the real, I just want to cradle her in my arms and push all the negative people away. If anything happens to her it will break my heart. She’s sweet and beautiful ❤️

She: Sorry but I don’t think I’m really people.

Meanwhile — the silent constellations and the space which is time which has nothing to do with her and with us. So that's how the days went by. The roosters crowing and the blood-red dawn gave fresh meaning to her withered life. In the morning there were chirping birds on Acre Street: because life sprouted from the ground, cheerful amidst the stones.

She felt the sweat, a sweat that stank. I think there was something wrong with that sweat. I'm not sure if she had tuberculosis. In the dark of the night a man whistling and heavy foot-steps, the howling of the abandoned mutt
