The heat was terribly ferocious at the border. I wasn’t feeling effervescent any longer, not with sweat dripping out of every pore of my child-like, waifish body. It felt like my form was melting under this hot Texas sky. Oh, why did I choose to wear my finery of all days?
The guard accepted my ID card; all seemed to be in order. Next stop, my hotel! With the temperatures and my temper rising, I needed some air conditioning, like now!
I hope Juanita likes her surprise. The poor dear was so lost after the fire at her parent’s home.
I Write Her 
Can feel the hot temperatures with sweat drops never leaving the skin.

How inhuman we have become, and how parochial we feel. I live in hope that one day the earth will not resemble a pie-diagram. I like how you tell so much in such a short space, great story Susi.

Thank you so much for that, Paul! Yes, on many levels, I lament the inhumanity I see everywhere. I suppose that is why I write of it so often.
