Some stories are supposed to be told, but sometimes, people prefer not to.
As a narrator, I learned that the people who read my stories tend to think that I am the author. I am not the author, I’m just a person who likes to tell you stories or basically gossip them for you. What I’m about to tell you have not been written before because people were really afraid of doing it. I don’t know why they preferred to pretend that nothing happened and act in front of their children so they didn’t notice what was really going on.
In a country called, Rico Puerto, adult males were developing a disease called depression and they didn’t know why. They started to get really worried because they were the ones who took care of the house, wives and children and they didn’t want to not fulfill their work at its best. In order to find what was really causing them to be extremely sad, they did a little bit of a research. As a result, they noticed that when the sunlight was dim they felt a painful sadness, but when light was brighter they felt better. They had found the reason of their disgrace, the Sun, and decided to speak to him. Sun was the kind of person that you don’t want to have as an enemy because he can be really vindictive, but the adult males needed to have an answer for his behavior. They did know all of the risks that implied talking to Sun and one of them was getting burned. The ricopuertans went to Sun and received the answer they didn’t expect; he said that he was controlled by some person and that he couldn’t control it. He said that he had a task of changing circadian rhythms because the one who was controlling him wanted to drive adult males crazy.
The adult males decided to move out of Rico Puerto to a place called States United. They heard that life over there is much easier and that they would have higher salary. Some of them moved from Rico Puerto alive because they escaped through Mayawest, but other people couldn’t. When they tried to abandon the country a big flame from the Sun hit them and their family and, as a consequence, they died.
The people who got out of the country made a pact of never telling the story that I am narrating to you. I know that you may be asking yourself why I’m telling this if I made a pact. The answer to that question is that I never did a pact with anyone, because I was the one who created this whole catastrophe. I lied to all of you in the beginning of the story and I have to say that I enjoyed it. As an advice, never trust someone until you really know them.
