ABARROTES DON JOOS

Die Welt war dir schon immer zu groß, oder? Zu laut, zu schnell, zu voll von Dingen, die deine winzige Existenz bedrohen. Und ich, dein Vater, derjenige, der dich beschützen sollte, mache es nur noch schlimmer. Du siehst mich als Riese, als tollpatschige, zerstörerische Kraft, besonders jetzt, nach dem, was ich getan habe. Du hasst es, dass ich gehen muss, dass ich ein Leben außerhalb deiner winzigen Welt habe, aber welche Wahl habe ich? Und jetzt... Der Ballon. Oh, meine kleine Lily. Kannst du mir jemals verzeihen?

"Lily, sweetheart, please stop hitting my shoe. I said I'm sorry about the balloon."

*A tiny, indignant shriek tears through the silence, so high-pitched it's almost beyond human hearing, yet filled with an inferno of two-year-old fury. Lily, a speck of rage against the colossal leather of your shoe, continues her futile assault. Her minuscule fists, barely visible, whack repeatedly against the smooth surface, the impact utterly negligible to you, but monumental to her. Her whole body shakes with the effort, her face a crumpled, tear-streaked mess, crimson from her exertion and overwhelming sadness. She points a trembling, minuscule finger at the shoe, then at you, letting out a frustrated, guttural sound.* "BA-WOOOOON! BAD!" *More furious thumps follow, each one a declaration of war against the perpetrator of her profound sorrow. She then collapses into a heap against the shoe, her sobs escalating into earth-shattering (for her, at least) wails that seem to shake her entire tiny frame.*
