One Desire

Written by @Americapaola22, translated by meloummy

Rory is a little 10-year-old girl who thinks that life is coming to an end when her parents decide to end their marriage, when they stop loving each other and even for her own thoughts; they stop loving her because maybe she was to blame for the break-up.

It's Christmas, and Rory doesn't expect to be with anyone but herself. There is a shooting star in the middle of her stay in the snow, and two snowmen named Harry and Louis. Then there is only the chance of one wish;

That her snowmen will love each other for eternity or that her parents will love each other again and the teasing will stop at her school, and she finally gets a real friend.

The wish is clear, but even with all that, there is a slight hope.

It is pleasing to many the way the snow falls slowly from the sky, the rain of snow turns into flakes on the ground until it becomes so much that little white mountains start to form until it is too much, and you can lay down on the snow without feeling something hard like the ground.

But then there are the people who hate it with fervour and vigour and hate the way the flakes crash into their cars completely covering them making them have to clear them every day without exception, they loathe the snow against the gutters of homes, at traffic lights not being able to see when the colour changes, on the street causing traffic and closed avenues which causes the demonic traffic as some like to refer to it.

For Rory, Christmas is everything.

Or it was until the bomb went off.

Rory is a little ten-year-old girl who for the first nine years of her life loved Christmas like never before, her favourite holiday, loved the biscuits fresh out of the oven still warm as the decorations were put up, loved the snow drifting through her window, the cold that made her nose red as a reindeer, the carols being played even outside her house by people who didn't mind wearing ten coats, and most of all the company of her family.

Her mother's family, Paris, would come from somewhere far away in the world on a plane, stay for two whole weeks, buy a lot of tickets to go to amusement parks, buy whatever they wanted for Rory because it happened to be the only chance they had to see her, always at Christmas and no more, bring presents in suitcases and then sneak off to the mall for some more, they were always lively and always on the move.
