Chapter
What Might Have Been
What Might Have Been begins with the sun blazing down on an otherwise lazy Sunday, the kind of day designed for doing nothing at all.

Un Morso doo Pang begins in a quiet, firelit room, where Tessie repeats a foreign phrase with hesitant precision.

Angie, patient and grounded, corrects her gently, encouraging not just her pronunciation but her self-belief. Tessie’s lips form the words again, this time with more clarity, her eyes lit by something deeper than understanding. It’s hope.…-

To The Reader
To The Reader, this opening note is not just a formality but a pointed defense of truth against the spread of fantasy. The writer, J. de Luna, steps forward not only as a storyteller but as a witness determined to restore dignity to a tale that has, in his eyes, been twisted into nonsense. A version of Lazarillo's life, recently printed and circulated, told of him falling into the sea and transforming into a fish—a tuna no less—complete with underwater battles, a scaly wife, and tuna offspring. To…-
