Excerpt



Hypothetical World



The end of the week passed by slowly, until the weekend finally arrived. Covering the city with promises of rest, fun or simple happiness.Paulette spent her morning inside her bedroom, under house arrest for a reason she did not exactly remember: maybe it was because she forgot to make her bed in the morning, or skipped lunch or dinner playing outside, or this time she was too long in the shower.  For whatever reason it was, she did not remember anymore and would probably do the same things again on the following days.  Happy to be able to run out of the house after lunchtime, thirsty for sunrays, she did not think about it anymore.

The sun going down over the city was orange due to the air pollution, but this did not made the color less beautiful for Paulette. Some beautiful things we see are created due to not-so-good circumstances, but they are not less beautiful or magical for our eyes; at least, this is what we think until we know what creates them, but most times even after we know it…. Sometimes, to know why, increases their beauty, as would they be survivors from a post-apocalyptic time.
