La verdad es que yo te e tratado mal. Mal porque tengo miedo. Miedo porque yo era como tú, llena de ideas y verdad, y por mi sabiduría lo perdí todo. Tú no eres Malcriada. Lo que pasa es que tu sabes demasiado." __In the middle of the Caribbean Sea, aboard an illegal voyage from the Dominican Republic to Puerto Rico, a twelve year old learns her name, a former cacao farmer finds a constellation on his lover's thighs, best friends become strangers and find the essence of themselves in the face of deception, an old man exchanges his homeland for a New York City bodega storefront, preteen boys grapple with authority, female cousins come to terms with their first shared sexual experience, an alcoholic woman finds serenity at the bottom of the sea, feminism is deconstructed by opposing views, on the back of a motorcycle, self-awareness is found, and a woman discovers that healing is a series of choices.__ "My mother didn't teach me dependency, I want to yell and enunciate. I cannot force myself to need you. Mami taught me to use my tongue like a sword, and I haven't sharpened it in years. Too afraid, I find myself, to pain him, to say things that might strike him the wrong way. Some feelings just don't translate. " __ " You know that Malcriadas can love the world awake.
