“Ay, pero we might have a tiny problem.”
Visiting the Land of the Living had become something Héctor looked forward to every year. Instead of feeling the looming anticipation of failure, he felt the bursting excitement of knowing he would cross the bridge. He knew he would see his familia y his chamaco. Santa Cecilia had always been a small town, but it was exploding with creativity and life. His visit this year, however, had taken him down a different path. Un perro had been staring at him, tail wagging, little body hunkered down for playtime. Despite better judgment, Héctor couldn’t resist humoring the canine. Animals were known to have a better sense about them, able to see spirits more than the living.
Which was what he was currently staring at- a living boy.
“You see, you are looking at me like you see me, pero that is imposible.”
