24 - 14 / El Atroz

(eng.)

Once upon a time there were two sisters. Or something like that.

Maybe there was never a “once”. Maybe it was always like that: two sisters, twins, but with a curiosity: on their necks were two numbers tattooed. One on “24”, and the other on “14”.

In the midst of these young women was the father. The manager. The one who brought them into the world. The one who educated them intellectually. The atrocious one.

The sisters lived in a giant house. A mansion of the poor. There, the father visited them every night. He read newspapers to them.

In the world there is no solitude greater than madness. So said the Poet.

They called her father “the atrocious one” because he beated them. Yes. He was a man who spoke through his fists.

Both 24 and 14 had been thinking about suicide. But they gave up. They preferred to wait for the great moment, for that dream that always haunted their heads: the natural death of their father.

They prayed for syncopations. For strokes. For terminal illnesses. Anything that would take the father's breath away.

On a stormy night, during the winter, the giant house filled with water. Much of the living room and kitchen was flooded. Everything smelled of moss.

Suddenly they knew. They looked at each other. They shared the same longing.

In that evening of water, of liters and liters of heavenly fury, they deceived the atrocious one. They made him leave his room. They got him to descend.

THEY DROWNED HIM.

On the next day, 24 and 14 reached a new level of happiness: that of contemplating their former father, now turned into a dry cake of blue mass; pale.
