dim light, almost out, it destroyed at a time when the door opened, or opening the toilet. Enter and leave the place men like cockroaches, "rather than men" smacks drunk. Everything is so dark, waitresses, darkness, alcoholics, prostitutes, darkness. Is only who wants to forget something, or someone who wants to forget about yourself ...
"Then, imitating the Mexican idol Juan Gabriel, Jose Gabriel, a round of applause please"
Do you know? No, do not know do you? Your face is very familiar to me "Your mother was Dona Socorro? Which tended his post outside the church jellies. But look at you can be! Gay frustrated, the stage is too big will it seems the joke of one of my best friends. Corretizas you playing on Sundays, while Socorro Will you be selling? Is your name Daniel? Are you Danny? Be you. You the same look, the expression of Doña Socorro.
The world is so small, they say. Go yes. Look click Danny. What happened to your boyfriend Joaquin? What are you doing here in this joint?

-Daniel. What happened to Joaquin?
As guessing my thoughts, he blushed. He closed his eyes for a moment and perhaps saw what I was thinking.

His image was degrading someone who has fallen so low. Poor Danny. Always drunk, always in crisis, singing covers of John Gabriel What do you say your mother?

But nice hit in the afternoon sun and how much green grass and had here. In one corner, put his coffee table Dona Socorro, beyond Rufino came kites, kites beautiful giants. Lived here in front of "Chula." Now there is a Oxxo. There were few buildings that remain, small fences, announced that under the leaden powder had been going, only that was left of my childhood.

When I arrived, Danny was already drunk. I started drinking trying to achieve. We will live a last child, I said and smiled. No matter what happens in that little room without revoking, which led to the dressing room.
was heard outside:
"Then, imitating the most effeminate Juan Gabriel I know: José Gabriel. A round of applause please ... "
But Danny did not come out. Was in the bathroom vomiting. And the memory I had the green and red kites gift Rufino, for the first time in a long time I felt happy.
