Cricket!!!

Son niños en plena adolescencia. En ese momento de la vida no somos especialmente bonitos, un poco deformes, sin ropa de moda y no da cuenta si están limpios. Cricket !!! Aquí sólo realmente quiere dejar salir el vapor, entrenar el cuerpo para moverse. Sudor que se mezcla con lo de tu amigo o enemigo, piel contra piel. Y mientras veo a los chicos juegar, que cometen errores, caras de sorpresa del oponente y de sí mismos, entiendo que, incluso antes de… Read More

Casa, trabajo,… Read More
