Author's Note:
Dear Reader, thanks for picking up this work.
A few things I would like to say before you begin.
First of all, these stories are meant to be Magical Realism works. Please tell me if it's clear. They are a work in progress, so I would very much love it if you could tell me what makes sense and what doesn't.
Some of these short stories are sometimes not "stories" in the normal sense of the word at all! For example, "A House of Sorrows", the only one up as of now, is meant to portray the tragedy of the War on Drugs, not a particular response to it or a specific character's actions.
