Day of the Dead

Chapter 1: Paper flowers
Alda and Rafael were in New Mexico.

He went into a house with her.

" (That was my older brother, José, he had two sons, Sebastián and Matias)" Rafael said.

He went to the ofrenda, he pointed at the picture.

It was a photo of him in Mexico, he had a warm smile and lively brown eyes.

He then looked at a little girl, she was pointing at the picture of Rafael.

" (Yes, Adella, that's great uncle Rafael)" Sebastían said.

Adella was deeply attatched to the photo of her "gran tío", even though he was dead very young, Adella loved her great uncle and hoped when she was now deceased, she would hug him.

He looked at the fruit left, he loved tangerines when he was alive.

" (Mama was divorced, but she loved me and my brother very much, José was 23 when I died, his sons are 35 and 33)" Rafael said.

Adella was a happy little girl despite the violence that went on.
