Los Abuelos, Two Bright Minds

Juana Medina

There’s nothing I love more than having onces with my abuelos. While they drink coffee and eat achiras, I drink chocolate milk and eat calados with butter and honey.

We sit in my abuela’s studio, facing the large windows that make it the warmest room in their house.

Resting our plates on her drawing table, we see way beyond their garden, as the Andes Mountains become gigantic shadows and the sun disappears.

* * *

I often worry about my abuelos. My abuelo says they are not that old. But I know they aren’t young. Also, Abuela’s heart isn’t strong. She got sick when she was little. She was so horribly ill that days of high fevers affected her heart.
