Everyday
The alarm goes off. I have to wake up. I have to go to work. I stand up and follow my usual routine. I take a shower. I dress and I make a sandwich with ham and low-fat cheese. I don’t want to have heart problems like my father and my father’s father and his father before him. I put my stuff into my backpack. Same stuff as yesterday. I put the key into the keyhole with the usual difficulties and I am off.
I get to work. I read the every-day paper. I take a glimpse at the first page, looks like something is coming towards the earth, following its orbit, weird. I go back to my normal life, nothing feels weird to me. I have to write some sort of short story for my boss’ kid. What do I know about that rubbish. I’m an accountant. I deal with numbers. What a useless bastard. He cannot even do his own homework. I’ll do it later. I want to go out for a cigarette, some procrastination won’t do any harm to anybody. I go out. It’s raining, tell me something new. Damn, I forgot my umbrella. Ugh, there’s that horrible cat of the janitor. I hate him, he’s always walking around as if the building was his. No one ever says anything. Disgusting.
I go back inside. I walk towards my cubicle and on the way I walk pass the meeting room, it has a huge window. Something catches my attention, I go back, I look out the window, a rainbow, unusual. I look to the right, there’s a bug on the floor, upside down, struggling for his life. I look up, Verwandlung written on the blackboard.

Chava: Me gustó muchísimo el cuento. Es excelentemente conciso (y se que mientras más corto es el texto, más difícil es escribirlo). Además me gusta mucho el estilo, corto, breve, lacónico pero que logra tener una rítmica increíble. Visualmente, el texto es muy atractivo, con tantas « I » que, ellas solas, funcionan bien como bases para construir la música del texto. Y me fascina la imágen del arcoiris saliendo de un mundo gris. Es genial.
