Emperor’s Daughter Ch. 14

Chapter 1

Chapter 13

Callie’s first birthday comes, and Natalie comes back up. A little stuffed Apollo doll in her hands as she walks in and gives it to Callie. Callie smiles and starts giggling hugging the doll tightly in her hands. Silena hugs tightly to Johnny, who turns up and gives Callie a little rattle. That she immediately starts to shake as hard as she can. Silena gives her daughter a book on Greek mythologies. A children’s book with lots of pictures. Brenda gives her younger sister a kiss. “I lub you” She says. “I’ll take care of you” They have cake and ice cream and Brenda makes a mess all over her self. At the end of the party Johnny and Silena share a long heartfelt kiss. “I can’t wait to call you and the kids mine?” Silena smiles. --- 2 months later it’s Brenda’s Birthday. “Your kids have their birthday’s way to close together” Natalie complains when she walks through the door. “It feels I was just here!” Her belly is just starting to show she’s now in her third month. “Yeah sorry I’ll plan my births a little better next time” Silena says. “Hush Cass, you know what I meant” Natalie says with a shrug. “You know I love you.” “Auntie Natalie!” Brenda cries running up to give her daughter a hug. “You’re here!” “Yes, I am, and how old are you now princess?” “I’m Four!” Brenda says holding up four fingers. “Momma says I’ll be starting kindergarten in a year! I’m just in preschool now” She says. “Little Callie is just in daycare, she’s too little to go to preschool like me!” She says proudly. Brenda is wearing her nicest jeans with a green sweater. In her arms is the Tyr doll she’s had since she was two, it’s obvious it’s been through some rough times. There are patches all over it where Silena has had to sow it back together. “Do you want to show Natalie your doll?” Silena asks softly. “It’s the Norse god Tyr” She says. “Momma reads me stories about him sometimes, she says it’s im-important, that I know Norse Mi-myth-Mythology.” Natalie kneels and gives Brenda a big squeezing hug. “And what’s your favorite” “When Thor has to wear a dress, so the giant man can marry him” She says with a laugh. “It’s so funny.” Natalie nods and gives Brenda a kiss on her head. “Can you show me where Callie is?” Brenda takes Natalie’s hand and leads her to the other room. “She deserves to know her roots” She says to Johnny. “Who knows? It could help her one day.” “I know” Johnny says. “But those myths can be a bit bloody” “I know, I’m going for the most kid friendly versions I can. Telling them in the most kid-friendly way I can, I plan to do the same for Callie when she get’s older.” “What did you get Brenda this year?” Johnny asks. “A collection of figurines, that range from wizards to hunters, to rogues. “With all the play fighting she likes to do I thought it would be something she likes.” She smiles up at him. “You?” “A collection of toy vehicles.” The party goes on, Natalie gives Brenda a toy Sleipner, Odin’s mighty steed, that has eight legs. Brenda immediately puts Tyr on it and starts pretending, she uses the other figurines in a made-up story she came up with in her mind. Using the toy cars and planes and vehicles as carnage in her destructive path. Callie takes one of the toys and tries to put them in her mouth, but Selina rips the car out of Callie’s hand and gives her the rattle Johnny gave her two months before. “When’s the wedding?” “In ten months” “I should be fine” Natalie says. “I can find someone else” “Please, I’ve known you longer then anyone here, it has to be me, after all the crap you’ve been through, I want to be apart of the biggest night of your life.” “I think the birth of my two kids trumps that, besides travelling with a baby is difficult…” “I’ll have Fred with me” “Yeah speaking of Fred…” “I can do this Cassie, please have some faith in me?” “Ok, I do, I’m sorry” She says raising her hands in surrender. “I’m sorry.” “Yeah you better be” Natalie gives her a hug goodbye. “See you at the wedding.” “By!” --- Planning a wedding hurts her head. Johnny is sitting on the floor with his own wooden sword pretending to have a sword fight with Brenda. While she looks through different venues for the wedding reception. “Can’t decide on a venue, I want to at least have it cut down to my final ten before I go to bed tonight” “How many people are we inviting.” “Natalie” She says. “Since she’s my maid of honor. I think she’s bringing Fredrick and Annabeth as her +2, apparently Fredrick’s been acting a bit morose.” She says with a roll of her eyes. “Natalie is pregnant with the Norse demigod?” Johnny asks pretending to dodge Brenda’s attack. “Annabeth the Greek demigod?” “Yes” She says. “Anyway that’s 3 technically four if Magnus is born before the wedding” “There are my parents” Johnny said lunging slowly his wooden sword hitting Brenda’s own sword. “That’s six, plus JD and his wife that’s 8” “My kids, that’s ten.” “Isn’t Brenda in the wedding, she’s the flower girl” “Yeah speaking of, are you going to have a ring bearer?” “I have a little nephew, I wanted to ask” “That’s 11 plus his parents that’s 13” “My grand parents that’s 15” “You’re friends from the Nome, sorry the entire Nome so that’s another 20, so… 35” “I have a few friends outside the Nome too, people I met in college, and people I met at work.” He says, and Brenda stabs him in the side. He groans and pretends to die to Brenda and her mother’s amusement. Johnny works at as a DJ at the local bar, and, occasionally does gigs at local clubs with a few of his buddies in the House of Life. He plays acoustic guitar and sings in the band. It does not pay much, but it pays enough. “Should have thought to make friends while I was in the orchestra, I could totally invite a few over.” She says with a sigh. “My side is going to look so empty” she says forlorn. Johnny jumps up and picks and Brenda who squeals in delight. “We’ll divide wedding differently so there are people on both sides” He says kissing her forehead. “Why did my family have to be a bunch of jerks?” “I’m not marrying your entire family, I’m marrying you and if your family couldn’t see the amazing woman you are then that’s their problem” “That one looks pretty” Johnny says picking out a venue. The room is cream colored and has a maximum of 100 people. “I have some friends from when I studied in Egypt, and I know Desjardin is going to be pissed if I don’t invite him. An invitation to Iskandar couldn’t hurt” She feels uneasy, while Johnny’s parents accepted her with open arms, (However hesitant they may have been at first” And the rest of Texas has accepted the fact that she has roman blood and two demigod kids she’s not entirely sure the rest of Egypt would be so accommodating. “Stop it, Iskandar is not as closed minded as you fear he is, Desjardin is not going to dare go against the chief lector and literally everyone else does not matter.” Johnny says kissing her on the for head. “Is mommy ok?” Brenda asks. She smiles at her daughter. “Yeah, daddy and I are just figuring things out for the wedding?” “Is that when Daddy will become my real daddy?” She says her eyes lighting up. Silena laughs and nods her head. “Yes, Brenda that’s exactly what that means.” --- The months pass, Silena agonizes over every choice. Where to honeymoon, if they should honeymoon, what to serve, where to host the actual wedding, what kind of wedding to have wedding. Suddenly the wedding is here, and she’s scared. Not that she’s making a mistake marrying Johnny but that something will go wrong. She’s nervous and anxious. “Ready?” Natalie asks. She’s in a Lilac dress. “Where’s your son?” She asks. The boy is now five months old. IT’s now June, Callie’s birthday is coming soon, she’ll be two. She thinks of how Callie has already started talking, can sit up, is already eating full foods. And Brenda is starting kindergarten soon. She remembers Johnny playing with her. She remembers Johnny making funny faces at Callie, making her laugh. She smiles. Yes. Marrying Johnny was right. She has no qualms about doing this. “He’s with Fredrick, Sitting with Annabeth in the front row.” “It was nice of Johnny to open a portal, so you could get here easily.” “Yes, it was,” Natalie acknowledges. “We really shouldn’t keep him waiting, forcing him to wait any longer to see the woman he loves looking lovely in that wide wedding dress.” The dress is white, her sleeves start off the shoulder. A string of pearls dangles from her neck. It belongs to Natalie. She’s wearing her bracelet that can transform into a shield. In her hair is her hair clip that can transform into a sword is fastened to her hair. Blue stones are glued to it. Her bouquet is filled with daisies, the blue lotus, roses, and lilies. She’s clutching them tightly and Natalie smiles and Silena turns and follows Natalie out the door. --- The wedding goes by in a blur. She spends the entire wedding eager for it to be over, so she can finally call Johnny her husband. They recite their vows. There the simple traditional vows that most people op to say. Silena is not as good with words as she is with music, and nothing she could say could beat the vows that have been there for several generations. She speaks calmly and surely giving her vow that she will love and cherish and love him for the rest of his life and Johnny is promising the same. She can feel her heart fluttering when Johnny takes her hand and slips the golden wedding band on her ring finger. “With this ring, I thee wed” He says softly. She places the wedding ring on his finger. “With this ring, I thee wed” She echoes him. Then the reverend announces. “I now pronounce you man and wife, you may now kiss the bride.” Johnny places a hand on her waist pulls her close and kisses her so deeply that she loses her breath for a moment. --- The reception afterwards is hectic. She stands outside in the hot sun receiving guests many whom she doesn’t know. Fredrick looks like a dear caught in headlights as he walks up with Annabeth. (Magnus Chase is in Natalie’s hands, under the shade of a tree.) Brenda is standing beside Selina shaking hands with everyone that comes by. Callie is already inside with her step-grandparents. Brenda wanted to stay with Johnny and Brenda since she’s a flower girl. But Callie was still a baby, and though she is a demigod she didn’t want her to be overheated so she asked Johnny’s parents to take Callie inside. “Brenda if he gets too hot, you tell me immediately ok?” She says as she shakes hands with an elderly man and a man with dark skin and black hair walked up to them. “Chief Lector Iskandar” Johnny says to the old man. “I’m so glad you could make it.” Iskandar is smiling. “There was no way I could miss a wedding such as this.” Iskandar says, his voice has a heavy Egyptian accent. Iskandar smiles at Selina. “I hope you are happy here” He says. “A girl with a burden as yours deserves the chance to have it shared.” “I would not wish my burdens on anyone Chief Lector” She says respectfully. “But I thank you.” “Have you met Michel Desjardins?” He asks motioning to the man beside him. Desjardin gaze is cold and uncaring. Selina can’t help but shrink under his gaze. Johnny holds her hand. Brenda clues in immediately and cuts in. “Stop making mommy scared” Brenda says, and she stomps hard on Desjardins foot. Desjardin gasps in pain and clasps his foot. “Brenda!” Selina cries picking Brenda up. “Say your sorry” “He was scaring you!” Brenda cries. “Never the less he did not deserve that, say your sorry” Brenda pouted. “I’m sorry” She forces out. “I want to go inside now” “Go” Natalie stands in. “It’s getting to hot, I’ll take her to her step-grandparents” Natalie says. “I’m not a baby” Brenda pouts she says stomping inside. “Nice child” Desjardin says sarcastically. “She seems to really care about her mother, it is a wonderful thing” Iskandar cuts in. “That should be acknowledged even if her show of her loyalty was a little to forward.” “She’s never done something like that before” Selina says. “Hmm” Desjardin says before he walks in with Iskandar beside him. --- “So, you’re Roman” Desjardins says. “A fact I hate more then you do.” She assures Desjardins. She’s not surprised he knows she hadn’t kept it a secret after she had told Johnny. She had even told Johnny to tell any one ‘who should be made aware.’ The entire Texan Nome new, as did Iskandar and Desjardin. But other then being made aware to the other Nomes that other mythologies are indeed real. Not much else was made aware of her background and her kids background. “Who already as two kids from two different mythologies, must be the Roman conquering blood in you.” “Get to the point” She says to him annoyed. “Betray the House of Life and you will answer to me.” “I betray the house of life, I’ll hand you my own sword.” She says. “Cassie!” Natalie calls running out to her. “Come on, what is the point of giving a speech to the bride and groom, if the bride isn’t there” She gives Desjardin a look. “You should sit too” “Thank you” She whispers once she’s out of Desjardins sight. “No worries” Natalie says. “Take a seat by your husband.” --- “So as most of you know, I am the brides best and only friend.” Natalie turned and stuck her tongue out at Selina, who returned the gesture. “I met her when she lived in Boston, already pregnant with little Brenda, she would stand out in rain and snow, playing her violin, making as much money as she could, trying to support herself. She endured all the glares and disgusted looks she got as her baby grew within her, and she never rose to the insults. She continued to play. Then after Brenda was born, I would take care of her, or my mom and dad would, ‘G-d bless their souls.” She says, Selina’s eyes started to tear up. “She tried to push me away, scared of what would happen if I got to close, so she told me her secret, told me that her father abused her, her first love was killed in front of her, her mother was killed, and still she found reason get up in the morning. I can still see it, she thinks she’s a coward for running away, but honestly to me… she’s the strongest woman I know.” Silena bit her lip. “Then she got a job as a violinist in an orchestra in New York, and met Callie’s father, and I thought, maybe she had nothing to worry about, maybe she’d finally be happy, she could stop worrying, she could be happy.” “I only wish I could beat the crap out of the guy who broke up with her over a fight, no scratch that, I wish I could beat the crap out of both the guys who broke her heart. But She did not beg, she did not cry, she let them go, and moved on.” “When she met Johnny, I could hardly hope that maybe she would find happiness with you, oh she had met other guys, that weren’t fathers of her children, but it seemed the second she mentioned that she had two kids by two different fathers they would find a reason to walk away. I found it a good sign that Johnny did not walk away, I found it even better when he treated Brenda with respect. He was understanding and kind, and he made Silena’s face light up brighter then the sun, she was the happiest I had ever seen when he asked her to marry him. He loved Brenda and Callie like his own children.” I love her kids, Brenda is feisty, and loyal, and a joy to be around. And I cannot wait to see the little spitfire that Callie grows into. They are all treasures and I am so happy that they get to have a father to help raise them.” Natalie sighs. “I hope the best for you two, after everything you’ve been through, Silena Cassie Julia Claudia Romano Maglieri,” Silena’s eyes widened at the use of all her previous names. “You deserve only the best.” Silena stood and gave Natalie the biggest hug she could. --- After that there was a quick speech from the Best man JD who gave a short quip over how Natalie’s was far better then his mainly because Johnny didn’t have a tragic backstory. But reaffirmed sweet things like Johnny was happiest he’s ever been, and they deserved to be together. It was cake, and dancing, Johnny danced with his mother and though Silena could not dance with her own father she decided to instead dance with her eldest daughter. Brenda was clumsy, but she had fun being spun around by her mother. After the parent-child dance Johnny and Silena danced together. “I love you, Lena” He whispered to her. “Forever and for always” Silena gave Johnny a long kiss, oblivious to all the people watching. “As I love you, Jonathan.” --- Brenda and Callie had been arranged to stay with their now official step-grandparents while Johnny and Silena went on their honeymoon. They went to Egypt and had phone seeing the sights, the pyramids, and he took her to see the special tour of the Hall of Ages, in the first nome. She watched in surprise as she saw her wedding play right in front of her. Iskandar let them sleep together in the nome, and she met some of the newest recruits to learning Egyptian magic. They spent a week in Egypt seeing the sights, before they headed off to Rome. To see Silena’s past. She saw the ruins of the palaces still standing, she saw the colosseum, she heard things about her father a former emperor that made her nearly cry. She saw everything Rome had to offer, and after those two weeks the two of them returned back home. --- A year later she gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. She was surrounded by Natalie and her husband, and her two perfect kids. It had taken a long time to get to where she was going, but she finally felt happy and safe. “Kamilah O'Hare” She named her baby with a kiss to the baby’s forehead. “Little Ilah.” Perhaps not everyone in the community likes her, perhaps they are a little distrustful of her, but so long as her family is ok, and they are like. Silena Cassie Julia Claudia Romano Magileri can handle just about anything that stands in her way. For the first time in a long time, she’s not just the emperor’s daughter. She’s a mother, a wife, a friend, a violinist, she’s strong, she smart, she is so deeply in love and is loved in return. And she wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world.

Christy Carlson Romano Involved In Something With Disney Channel’s Kiff

Disney TVA unveiled it’s 89th series overall Disney Channel’s Kiff and has many people talking about how cute of the concept however it seems that a old member from a old popular Disney Channel show is coming to the world of Kiff and Barry in one way, Christy Carlson Romano from Kim Possible posted on Disney Branded Television the following message on the series announcement on Instagram

Not the first time she is going to probably voice or sing in a show with a female lead who has orange in her color and that her name starts with a K! ;)

Probably she will voice a character or be the series main voice for the lead character Kiff or maybe sing the theme song and end credits however is nice to see like Brenda Song with Amphibia a old Disney Channel star returning to the humble begginings of their career

Time will tell..

#Kiff #Disney's Kiff #Disney Channel #Lucy Heavens #Nic Smal #Christy Carlson Romano #Kim Possible

An October That Ends in August - Part 2/3

Chapter Two

“Peter, did you hear-- Kerry’s a lesbian.”

Peter responded, but didn’t look up from the journal he was reading as Shirley got a cup of coffee. “Good for her.”

“I guess that she and Kim Legaspi were going out, but, it blew up because of Romano.”

That got Peter’s attention, “Excuse me?”

Shirley held her hands up, “I’m just repeating what I heard. I’ve always sorta liked her. No nonsense. We could use more of that in this hospital, and less… shenanigans. Less coming and going… fewer… interpersonal relationships within a department that implode.”

She gave Peter a look that he totally missed as he stood. “Thank you Shirley.”

She watched him leave the lounge, “She actually listened to the nurses and support staff…”

oOOOOo oOOOOo

“We must do something about this Mark.”

Mark shook his head, “You don’t even like her Elizabeth.”

Elizabeth bristled, “That isn’t true Mark. I didn’t like how she handled your tumor, but, the rumor is that her vacation was actually a suspension. And I will not let that happen to a co-worker. To a female co-worker. Obviously Romano is making another play for the Emergency Department head job. Again.” She met Mark’s eyes, challenging him, “Is that what you want Mark? There are worse things than Kerry Weaver.”

oOOOOo oOOOOo

“Carl, is it a good idea to rile Doctor Romano?”

“Oh, you mean in response to the fact that he suspended and fired my subordinate without a word to me either time? Oh, he’s not going to know what hit him.”

The psychiatric nurse gave a pregnant pause, “I believe he’s trying to get Kerry fired too.”

“Nope. I like her. That’s not going to happen either.”

The nurse blinked, “You like her? No one likes her, liked her, except for Kim… Dr. Legaspi.”

“Enough. I like her enough. I’ll be in Romano’s office if anyone needs me.”

oOOOOo oOOOOo

“Randi. What did you do?”

Randi put on her most innocent look, and turned, “Who me?”

Abby crossed her arms over her chest, “Someone or someones from almost every department is about to descend on Robert Romano’s office furious and all for different reasons.” Abby paused, “Randi.”

Randi was silent for another moment, then shrugged, “Look. She’s always been good to me. Kerry has. In this dump heap she’s my favorite person. We started around the same time, and while she’s a hard taskmaster, she’s also always fair. I-- she’s my friend. I think.” Randi smirked, “I did get her the Chief of the ER position,” her grin dimmed, “and she’s in pain. Getting-- Romano-- off her back. It’s the least I can do. And, I didn’t lie to anyone, I was just a little birdie whispering in their ears.”

Abby shook her head, “Remind me to never be your enemy Miranda Fronczak. You’re… a force.”

Randi gave a bow, “Thank you very much.” She changed the subject, “I think Luka was looking for you.”

Abby put down the chart in her hands, “Later. I’m going to go watch the fireworks. You coming?”

“Frank. I’m taking my break.” Randi put her arm through Abby’s, “So, are you straight or a bit bendable Abigail Lockhart?”

“What?”

Randi laughed.

oOOOOo oOOOOo

“Are you sure Kerry?”

Kerry nodded, “I will be forever grateful for what working at County has given me. What I’ve learned here. Who I’ve met here.” She quirked an eyebrow, “Even what I’ve learned from you Robert. But, my time here needs to come to an end. Sure. I could try and fight for a bigger role. I’d win too. You wouldn’t know what hit you. It’d take me…” she stared off for a second, “...two years at the most. But, it wouldn’t make me happy.”

Romano shook his head and sat back in his chair, “The blonde. Legaspi. She’s not worth it Kerry.”

“Why, because she turned you down?”

“Because she’s a pretty one, and we’re not. We’re the hard workers, the plains, the ones with the money and power. The pretty ones, oh, they’ll like you for awhile, but, then they’ll be gone, leaving your destroyed heart behind.” He was silent for a moment, “You’re the flame, steadfast and true, she’s just a moth that will either fly away or die. No matter how much you love her, she will never love you as much.”

Kerry stood perfectly still for so long that Romano pushed away from his desk and stood. “Don’t give me that look Kerry. I’m obviously not talking about myself. I’m the Chief of Staff at County General Hospital in Chicago, not to mention a damn amazing surgeon. I want for nothing, and have sex whenever I want it. Don’t feel bad for me.”

“I hope that you can heal from whatever, whoever, hurt you Robert.”

Romano stopped in front of Kerry, “Now. What’s going to happen is that I’m going to give you platonic and in no way sexually harassing hug. And if you ever tell anyone, I will kill you.”

Kerry was stiff as Romano wrapped his arms around her. After a moment, though, when it became apparent that he was simply doing what he said he was going to do, she reciprocated, hugging him back. Then they separated. Kerry spoke, “That was weird.”

Romano nodded, “It was, let’s never do it again.”

Brenda’s voice came over the interoffice intercom. “Doctor Romano, there are… quite a few people waiting to talk to you. And they don’t seem to care that you’re in a meeting.”

“Kerry. Good luck. Perhaps you’ll have better luck with your pretty one than I did.”

Before Kerry could respond the door banged open and everyone that had been outside streamed in. From Janet Coburn, to Peter, to Elizabeth, to Carl, and even more. Kerry slipped out in the melee. As she got past the doorway she turned back towards the office. She put her fingers to her chin and then moved her hand towards Robert. The ASL sign for Thank You. Robert inclined his head and focused on his office intruders and their demands.

Kerry found Randi by the elevator and pulled her into an empty conference room. Randi smirked, “Gonna ravage me?”

“You will fix this once I’m gone?”

Randi nodded, her face serious, “I will. I-- there are many people in this hospital who will be sad to see you go. Some here even like you.”

Kerry put a hand to Randi’s cheek for a moment, “Thank you Randi. You’ve always been there for me.”

Randi swallowed, “I’ve always considered you a friend.”

Kerry shook her head, “No, no…” she hugged Randi, “We’re sisters Miranda.”

They parted and Randi cleared her throat a couple of times, “That… make sure to call me when you get there. When you get back together too.” She smirked, “Maybe she has a brother.”

“No, her brother Thomas Jr., TJ died in her arms when she was a kid.” Kerry grinned, “She does have a twin sister though, Carol.”

Randi opened and closed her mouth, “Identical?” Kerry nodded, “There are two of them?”

Los mejores libros de 2019 han sido escritos por mujeres

Los mejores libros de 2019 han sido escritos por mujeres https://ift.tt/2YVJftV

BARCELONA — Este año termina con el regreso a nuestras librerías de dos referentes de la literatura contemporánea. La editorial Adriana Hidalgo reivindica a la argentina Hebe Uhart con las más de mil páginas que suman Novelas completas y Cuentos completos. Y Alfaguara rescata la mejor novela de la mexicana Elena Garro, Los recuerdos del porvenir, incluyendo en el volumen textos de Gabriela Cabezón Cámara, Isabel Mellado, Lara Moreno, Guadalupe Nettel y Carolina Sanín, a modo de manifiesto colectivo hispanoamericano.

Si durante estos doce meses se ha acelerado exponencialmente la reconsideración de la importancia de las grandes creadoras del siglo XX ha sido, en buena parte, gracias a la visibilidad y el reconocimiento que han obtenido obras extraordinarias escritas por mujeres. Finalmente, han empezado a ocupar el lugar protagónico que merecen. La mayoría de los mejores libros publicados durante 2019 en nuestra lengua son de autoría femenina. Aunque pertenezcan a países, tendencias o géneros distintos, comparten un lenguaje de alta intensidad, con carga tanto poética como política, y el interés por las relaciones corporales y familiares, casi siempre atravesadas por la violencia.

Se trata de ficciones que denuncian la violencia de género o la desigualdad en las sociedades humanas y —explícita o implícitamente— en la esfera editorial y en la historia de la literatura. La cuarta ola feminista y el sentido común han empezado a coincidir. Gracias a la insistencia de los grupos activistas y a la conciencia de la academia y del resto de instituciones —políticas y mediáticas—, la reivindicación se ha vuelto tanto conciencia como tendencia. La industria de la edición ha tomado buena nota de ello. Y las escritoras emergentes se están beneficiando, con ambición, de la confianza que el nuevo ecosistema está depositando en ellas.

El libro más fascinante que he leído este año es La compañía, de Verónica Gerber Bicecci, un brillante ejercicio de apropiación y remix que, a partir de los fantasmas de una familia, se adentra en las ruinas de la minería en México. Está en sintonía con el último ensayo traducido de Donna J. Haraway, Seguir con el problema, porque tanto la escritora y artista mexicana como la pensadora estadounidense recurren a la hibridación de lenguajes, a la síntesis entre campos distintos del saber y a estrategias de la ficción especulativa para llegar al núcleo más creativo de nuestra época, el que ignora todas las fronteras.

Muy probablemente sean Nuestra parte de noche, de Mariana Enríquez, y Desierto sonoro, de Valeria Luiselli, las dos novelas extensas en español más importantes del año. Coinciden en la voluntad de recuperar, mediante relatos de viaje, la ambición formal y estructural de las grandes novelas latinoamericanas de la década de los sesenta. Pero difieren en sus estrategias: mientras que en el volumen de la argentina Enriquez, de género fantástico, predominan el narrador omnisciente y los diálogos clásicos; en el de la mexicana Luiselli, de corte realista, encontramos un sofisticado artefacto narrativo, con múltiples voces y planos. Comparten el foco en las complejas relaciones entre padres e hijos y la obsesión por los desaparecidos.

Sobre los mismos temas versan las tres breves primeras novelas que más han destacado este año en América Latina. A la madre de la protagonista de Cometierra, de la argentina Dolores Reyes, la ha matado su padre. En Nuestra piel muerta, de la ecuatoriana Natalia García Freire, Lucas dice: “Su cuerpo, padre, que ahora encogido se debe parecer más al mío de lo que los dos podemos imaginar. Como un espejo esta tierra. Yo de un lado. Usted del otro”. Y en Casas vacías, de la mexicana Brenda Navarro, leemos: “¿Qué es un desaparecido? Es un fantasma que te persigue como si fuera parte de una esquizofrenia”. Los supervivientes narran heridas profundas, en los tres casos, en primera persona. La desaparición y la muerte son, para ellos, las otras dos dimensiones de la vida.

El verano en que mi madre tuvo los ojos verdes, de Tatiana Ţîbuleac, es otra novela poderosa que aborda el difícil diálogo familiar. El narrador acompaña durante sus últimos meses a su madre, enferma terminal, mientras construye un discurso inestable que oscila entre el odio y el lirismo. Que la narradora moldava haya logrado su reconocimiento internacional con ese libro —ganador del Premio de Literatura de la Unión Europa— señala que la maternidad, observada desde todos los puntos de vista posibles, es un viejo argumento universal que vive su mejor momento.

Los contrastes de las relaciones de pareja también son explorados en la literatura de nuestros tiempos algorítmicos. En los relatos de Mi marido es de otra especie, Yukiko Motoya —la escritora más premiada de la literatura japonesa actual— reactualiza la tradición kafkiana para diseccionar con distancia y muchísimo humor la institución del matrimonio. Y la canadiense Anne Carson, que ha pensado en serio la pasión desde la Antigüedad hasta hoy, firma una obra maestra, La belleza del marido. Pocas veces el amor, los celos, la infidelidad o la separación han llevado tan lejos el lenguaje poético: “Y de las verdaderas mentiras de la poesía / se filtró una pregunta. / ¿Qué une realmente a las palabras con las cosas? / No mucho, decidió mi marido / y procedió a usar el lenguaje / del modo en que según Homero suelen los dioses”.

Si en América Latina y otros países del mundo han brillado las ficciones escritas por autoras, en España han sido dos libros de ensayo los más comentados. Se trata de El infinito en un junco, de Irene Vallejo, un viaje muy libre y muy sabio y muy digresivo por el mundo del libro desde la creación de la Biblioteca de Alejandría hasta la caída del Imperio romano; y de El enemigo conoce el sistema, de Marta Peirano, una exploración incisiva y amena de las tácticas que usan los gigantes de internet para espiarnos, cuantificarnos y traficar con nuestros datos.

Son, a simple vista, dos obras antitéticas; pero yo las veo complementarias. En nuestras vidas negocian y conviven el papel y el código, las pieles y los píxeles. Las relaciones tóxicas y el machismo existen tanto en los hogares o los ámbitos laborales como en las redes sociales o la televisión. En la mayoría de los libros más influyentes de 2019 han predominado los cuerpos, la familia y los territorios físicos; pero es muy probable que ya estén escritos los que el próximo año abordarán también la otra mitad de lo real, la de los algoritmos y las pantallas.

Jorge Carrión (@jorgecarrion21) es escritor y crítico cultural. Su libro más reciente es Contra Amazon.

Emperors daughter ch. 12

Part 1

Part 11

A/N The song being song does not belong to me, it’s Tomorrow written by Chris Young and it does not belong to me. I just thought the moment fit Apollo and Cassie’s situation very well.

“Don’t wanna Move!” Brenda exclaims, she’s sitting on Cassie’s bed pulling all her clothes out of the bags. “I’m sorry mia combattante,” She says softly, “But we have too” “No, no, no” “Yes Brenda” She says softly. “No!” Brenda cries. “No, No, No” She crawls onto the bed and holds her little girl tightly in her arms. “I know, I know you like it here” She says softly. “I do too, but I think in time you’ll see it was for the best.” But Brenda is struggling in Cassie’s hold, and hitting her arms. Brenda is quite strong for her age, so Cassie knows she will have bruises in the morning. She pulls her daughter away. “Brenda, I know your angry and upset, but you do not hit mommy” She says sternly. “Hitting hurts.” Tears are falling down Brenda’s eyes, her cries start to get louder, and she instead of banging on Cassie’s arms starts to bang on the bed. Cassie let’s her, if she was Brenda’s age she probably would have started crying too. Cassie crawls behind Brenda and puts the little girl on her lap. “I know sweetie, I know.” --- She places Brenda in the play pen, she would have let her sleep in her bed, but after all these years she’s still scared she’s going to accidently smother the baby if she accidently rolls over. She looks around the apartment. All their stuff is packed into little tiny boxes, the moving truck is coming by tomorrow at six, to take them to their new apartment in Dallas, and she starts her new job as a waitress, on Sunday.” She had auditioned for the orchestra in Texas, but they did not like her music, and besides a nine to five job would allow her to spend more time with her daughter something she was severely lacking before. She feels a warmth at her back and sighs. “I thought you never wanted to see me again.” “I don’t” Apollo’s gruff voice announced. “I just want to make sure you’re not over staying your welcome.” “No, Apollo” She sighs. “I’m leaving tomorrow as planned.” Apollo’s eyes seemed to almost glow in the dark as he takes her in. She stays still for a long moment before the intensity of his gaze dies down and he nods. “Good” “I’m sorry” Cassie says the words burn in her throat, she’s proud, and arrogant, but she refuses to be like her father, and the only way she can even start to repair that damage is to apologize. Apollo says nothing, for a long time they just stand their, she’s tense and scared, she wraps her arms around her torso. The fight on Brenda’s birthday was a long-time coming, she sees that, she knows that, she’s to secretive, and he’s far to arrogant. It was stupid to think either of them would last. But she also doesn't want anger and resentment to be the last thing either of them remember of eachother so... she starts to sing. “Tomorrow I'm gonna leave here I'm gonna let you go and walk away Like every day I said I would And tomorrow, I'm gonna listen To that voice of reason inside My head telling me that we're no good” She starts to sing. Apollo pauses and his eyes go wide. “But tonight, I'm gonna give in one last time Rock you strong in these arms of mine Forget all the regrets that are bound to follow We're like fire and gasoline I'm no good for you You're no good for me” Apollo sings softly and he walks over to her and they dance around the small room. It’s not forgiveness, but for now it’s a small reprieve in the darkness of the night. It’s dangerous, and so very stupid, but she’s scared and frightened, and she doesn’t want to be strong, she doesn’t want to be smart, she wants to be stupid and weak, she wants to spend her last night in New York in the night of someone she knows. “We’ll only bring each other tears and sorrow But tonight, I'm gonna love you Like there's no” Cassie whispers into Apollo’s ear. “Tomorrow I'll be stronger I'm not gonna break down and Call you up when my heart cries out for you And tomorrow, you won't believe it But when I pass your house I won't stop no matter how bad I want to” Apollo cuts her off and smiles, and for a moment she thinks she can see tears in his eyes, a life time of regret. She knows it would be wrong to think that their break up would be something he regrets but the thought is comforting non-the less. “But tonight, I'm gonna give in one last time Rock you strong in these arms of mine Forget all the regrets that are bound to follow We're like fire and gasoline I'm no good for you, you're no good for me” Cassie wraps her arms around Apollo’s neck and the spin around slowly in place. He takes her hand and twirls her around as she sings. “We only bring each other tears and sorrow But tonight, I'm gonna love you Like there's no tomorrow” Apollo sings she loses himself in his voice, and tears fall down her face. “Oh, baby when we're good, you know we're great But there's too much bad for us to think, That there's anything worth trying to save” Cassie continues. The god and the mortal, it could never have worked out. She can’t help but remember when she used to laugh, when he was understanding, but she can also remember the anger and the resentment. “But tonight I'm gonna give in one last time Rock you strong in these arms of mine Forget all the regrets that are bound to follow We're like fire and gasoline I'm no good for you, you're no good for me We only bring each other tears and sorrow But tonight, I'm gonna love you like there's no” Apollo says and he lifts her off her feat and brings her the bed and he lies back. “Tomorrow, I'm gonna leave here I'm gonna let you go and walk away Like every day I said I would” Cassie whispers into Apollo’s ears before she kisses him. Tears falling down her cheeks. The next morning, Apollo is gone. When Cassie notices she does not cry, she gets up and prepares herself for the long road ahead. --- She was already in the process of changing her name when before she moved, but it still takes a while before she can get used to people calling her by her new name. Selina Maglieri She brings herself to a salon and dyes her hair blonde but keeps her eyes green. --- She enrolls her daughter into a daycare, and she starts her job as a waitress, it’s easy in some ways, but it’s hard in others, some people speak to fast for her to place their orders. And on her first day she drops to trays, and the boss tells her sternly that lost food will be coming out of her paycheck. It’s frustrating, there are hundreds of costumers, and several of them are impossible to please. The pay is tiny, and she doesn’t get much in the way of tips because she’s knew and still starting out and well she sucks. But the hours are nice and honestly that’s the only thing keeping her going right now. At five o clock she almost breathes a sigh of relief. She clocks out takes home the few meager tips she managed to collect and goes to pick up her daughter from the daycare. She doesn’t have to practice, so she decides for fun to take her daughter to the playground nearby She takes her daughter on the swing set, and she swings Brenda up and down. “You’re swinging” She says to Brenda. “Swinging” Brenda echoes. She laughs as she goes up and down. She loves the sound of her daughters laugh. She takes Brenda to the slide and Brenda is not scared she is happy and she goes down the slides by herself. From what Cassie can tell They play for a few hours before she must take Brenda home, for dinner. --- It’s a whole month before she realizes something is not right. A part of her is hoping that she’s wrong, but she’s late, and the only other time she was late was when she was pregnant with Brenda, so she goes to the nearest pharmacy and buys a pregnancy test. She tests it that night when Brenda is asleep and when the stick turns positive, she does not cry, she stands back up takes a deep breath and lets it out. “I did this once, I can do it again” She says before she leaves the bathroom. --- Her boss isn’t all to pleased, but she’s not fired, and as long as she’s still taking home a paycheck she will endure all the yelling she needs too. She starts putting as much money as she into her savings, fortunately she still has a good amount of money from when she was in the orchestra, so she’s not to doomed, not yet. --- She’s been in Dallas all of 6 months, she’s showing pretty well, and she get’s looks from the neighbors whenever she goes to the nearby store. She’s picking up some groceries, when she meets him. She accidently barrels straight into him, she’s looking at the aisles looking for carrots, and doesn’t see him until after they’ve bumped carts. “I am so sorry” The man says. His skin is olive toned, and his eyes are a nice deep brown, his hair is short pretty short maybe an inch away from his scalp. “I didn’t see you there” He has a nice southern accent. “No, it’s my fault I didn’t see you either.” She says. “Cute kid” The man says. “She yours?” She smiles and nods. “Yeah.” “Hey” He says bending down to talk to the baby. “What’s your name?” “Brenda!” She announces. “I’m two!” She says holding up two fingers. “Big number” The man announces. “For a big girl.” Brenda beams. He turns around and introduces himself. “I’m Johnny O’Hair, what’s yours ma’am?” She smiles and holds out her hand. “Selina Maglieri.”
