Sofia's return.

One of those weekends when boredom sets in, Sofia decides to go to Paloma's house to invite her to do something unusual, "canopy". A sport where people glide through the air at great heights by means of cables held by the corners that pass between the branches of the trees. Her eyes were startled, her heart accelerated its rhythm and vulgar words of offense and rudeness came out like bullets to kill Sofia. Paloma could not believe what she was asking, how could her friend who knows her so well suggest such a thing, knowing that her worst fear is heights? Paradoxically, her name was not at all appropriate for such a situation and Sofia in an ironic tone said: Paloma and began to laugh out loud. The atmosphere was tense for only a few minutes, until Sofia could explain herself well. She just wanted Paloma to accompany her. As friends, they began to say their affectionate insults to each other and prepared to go on an adventure.

On the way Paloma was a little tense, and the trip, which was not a short one, made everything worse. She was already anxious to get there and even though she wasn't going to ride the canopy the nerves were eating her up inside. Sofia noticed and invited her to listen to music with her.

Ohhhh and that song? - exclaims Paloma asking her to repeat it.

As if by magic, in seconds they learned the chorus and both friends began to sing it over and over again:

"...I'm going to live life, I'm going to daydream and so fly towards a new day where happiness and emotions are already waiting for me..."

At last, they arrived at their destination. Paloma asks the guide to give her two pieces of equipment and tells her not to worry, she is going to ride with her friend who has experience. Sofia does not believe what she is seeing and hearing. A feeling of joy and at the same time fear ran across her bristling skin. She never asked her to ride together and didn't know what to do. Would Paloma be playing? It seems the song had some effect on her.

Paloma says - What's with that face? Take it off, it looks fake and these teams don't ride alone.

Sofia reacted in surprise, and with trembling hands began to secure all the protective equipment.

The moment had arrived and the coupled friends, Paloma tied to Sofia, were thrown down the cable. With their arms outstretched and their eyes tightly closed, they felt as if they were cutting the air with their faces at the speed at which they were sliding. They had such a feeling of freedom, happiness, and joy that they would not know how to describe that moment. They never screamed out of fear, they sang over and over again the song that had taken over their minds the whole ride.

"...I'm going to live life, I'm going to daydream and so fly towards a new day where happiness and emotions are already waiting for me..."

Suddenly, the weight under Sofia disappeared, the safety equipment was released and Paloma fell with no chance of anything. A beautiful landscape that seemed miniature because of its height slowly began to show the details before her eyes, which were blinded by its impact on a large rock. Sofia looks up at the sky and makes a half-smile...

Like a spring Paloma jumps out of bed and with her hand on her chest tries to relax. She has just woken up from a nightmare and her breathing is agitated. It seemed unbelievable to her that dead Sofia had come to take revenge in her dreams. He had already buried that past and he didn't want to know anything about it, so he got dressed in his casual clothes and went to breakfast to go for a run like every day.

He starts his routine with lots of energy while listening to his favorite playlist, but this time a recurring melody overshadows the songs on his phone. He starts humming it over and over again trying to remember where it came from. As a flash of light quickly comes to his mind, it was the song he sang with Sofia while they were sliding down the canopy in that tragic dream. She can't deny that she liked it very much so she remembers the lyrics and begins to sing the chorus loudly, but in a different way:

"...I've already died and my life is to wander awake and so suffer every day, in an eternity of which I am already prey..."

Quickly Paloma stops and becomes aware of what she said while singing, which was not the lyrics of the song. She is bewildered and looks around her where people look at her but do not see her. In an act of desperation, she begins to scream loudly and no one hears her. She could not take it anymore, she was hoarse and that panorama became clear to her. She closes her eyes and squeezes them tightly, making tears run down her cheek.

I don't understand, how did she do it? - Paloma asks herself
