At the point when she was in her room, Monica kept the draperies drawn and the shadows cast
by the furniture influenced in the glinting light of the end table light, as though they were
ad libbing weird moves to the beat of that gothic music. Mónica's region,
gotten away from reality because of an exceptionally specific relativity burrow that she had
worked for herself forcibly of will, stayed external the standard that directed the rest
of the house. Up to that point, his mom's melody of grievances didn't contact him, nor did
the servant's timeless murmuring, nor the infantile conversations of his siblings.
I was nestled into the side of his bed, my head kneeling down, caught up with sitting idle,

ambient sound, I almost certainly recall, could be The Cure or something almost identical.
Something exceptionally evil, without a doubt, a tortured melody clearly, performed by
some young fellow wearing grieving from head to toe, the sort of record that Monica

—«At 36,000 kilometers from the earth — she read — there is a geostationary circle,
fixed to the climate since it moves at a similar speed as the Earth: the Cemetery
Circle, as it is known as the one to which the satellites are sent when they lose their valuable
life. All satellites have an energy of
On the off chance that I consider Monica and her heavenly body, I envision tremendous telescopes competent

There is matter that sparkles in the universe, indeed, those stars that emit light and

provided me with a look of entertained predominance.
"I don't have the foggiest idea about why you read that refuse," I told him, scowling, not on the grounds that I
truly accused his preferences for perusing but since I needed to certainly stand out. It was one
of those numerous progressive evenings that I spent at her home, so many that Monica no
longer felt a sense of urgency to focus on me. His room was mine, that's what I knew, and I could
do anything I desired in there. Obviously, Monica wouldn't give me a discussion.

Now and again I think, Monica, any place you are, that exactly the same thing has
happened to me. That I was sent into the world with a mission: to convey
with different creatures, to trade information, to communicate. But then, I have been let be,
encircled by different creatures who explore confused around me in this climate

them to that circle, where they will stay fixed in space without the requirement for any
motor to hold them in place.» That is, to figure out us, that the unfortunate satellites
resemble elephants that go to bite the dust in their normal necropolis. It's not without its
lovely side, looking at the situation objectively. Envision, Bea: some tremendous garbage whose principal work
was correspondence, quiet, secluded everlastingly, encompassed by a multitude of comparable garbage
that will always be unable to impart from this point forward. Astounding, correct?
Ponder that now, Bea, such countless years after the fact. You haven't seen Monica in
four years. Ponder the isolation of satellites, the orbital isolation. Deserted
by those they once served. Neglected and cold. Encircled by the most infertile

to such an extent.
There were different reasons that my dad didn't think and that incited
me to place in the middle between. I felt the city like an enclosure, the years I occupied it squandered.
There were numerous things that my dad had close to zero insight into the existence he had driven there.
I have perused these equivalent words that I rehash in books. Some were composed a
quite a while back, others were distributed a long time back. Since all things considered,
all that is reviewed closes being a commentary to something composed previously.
There is just a single subject, life, and life is consistently something similar: a similar radiation
saturates the whole universe and isn't related with a specific item. All
our activities, every one of our loves, are redundancies of others that have previously happened and
to that end we will continuously track down the response to a portion of our inquiries in a book. The
issue is that we won't comprehend anything composed until we have encountered it
somehow, and I can't help suspecting that now and just now am I starting
to comprehend phrases I read some time in the past. Presently I comprehend that the city follows me,
that I generally walk similar roads, and that it is important to uncover agony so
that it doesn't decay under my feet. Therefore I pass on one city and return to
another, in light of the fact that I realize that where it counts I in every case live in a similar one. I assumed I
abandoned the affliction and I have perceived that I convey it with me, and presently I return to the
I'm 22 years of age. I left Madrid at eighteen on the drive of my dad.
Since I wasn't extremely clear about how I needed to manage my life, and considering
that the pressures between my mom and me were starting to turn into
unendurable, couldn't it be really great for me to disappear to read up English for a year? For
once, only a single time, I concurred with his perspectives, since I needed to leave as well, I needed
to take off from my home lastly neglect to focus on my dad and mom. I'd been needing
it for a really long time and I won't turn down this open door now that it was being
served to me on a platter.

Try not to attempt to cover the aggravation: it will spread through the earth, under your feet; it
will saturate your drinking water and toxic substance your blood. The injuries are shut,
however, there are in every case pretty much apparent scars that will annoy again when the
weather conditions changes, helping your skin to remember their reality, and with it the blow that
caused them. Also, the memory of the blow will influence future choices, it will make
futile feelings of trepidation and hauling bitterness, and you will grow up as a dull and fearful animal.
Why attempt to take off and abandon the city where you fell? In the vain expectation that
elsewhere, in a milder environment, your scars won't hurt any longer and you'll drink
cleaner water? Surrounding you will rise the actual vestiges of your life, on the grounds that any place
you go you will take the city with you. There is no new land or new ocean, the existence that
you have ruined is ruined in any region of the planet. I'm 22 years of age, and
I talk through the mouths of others.
