The sound of the rain had woken María Rosa a few minutes before her usual time. The eternal race played by the water droplets was hypnotizing. She made bets on which one would reach the finish line first.
She felt the baby's kicks in her belly and remembered her childhood in Paraguay. What she missed most about her country were the San Juan celebrations: sharing with neighbors, eating delicious food, and playing around the bonfires. Of all the customs, her favorite was the casamiento koygua, a tradition that parodied marriage.
