Mexicano | Dead Inside | I say what I mean

I hate how accurate it feels

[Asanwa.sol @Chizitere_xyz]

David sits in his car. The engine is off, but he hasn't moved for ten minutes.

​He is parked in the driveway of the house he pays for, staring at the front door. Inside, the lights are warm. He can see the silhouette of his wife, Sarah, moving in the kitchen. He can see his daughter watching TV. It looks like a perfect life.

​But David isn't soaking it in. He is hyperventilating.
​He grips the steering wheel until his knuckles turn white. He is taking these ten minutes to put the "mask" back on.
​At work today, he lost a major client. The company is downsizing. He might not have a job in three months. The panic is a physical weight on his chest, crushing his lungs. He wants to walk inside, fall into Sarah’s arms, and say, "I’m scared. I don’t know if I can keep holding this up. I need you to tell me it’s going to be okay."
​But he doesn't.

​He remembers three years ago. His mother died. He broke down in front of Sarah. He cried. Really cried. He saw the look in her eyes shift. From comfort to fear.

The "Rock" had crumbled, and she didn't know how to look at him anymore. The attraction faded for months.

​He learned his lesson: He is allowed to be sad, but he is not allowed to be helpless.
​So, in the darkness of the driveway, David swallows the panic. He fixes his tie. He checks his reflection in the rearview mirror and practices the smile. The "I'm fine" smile.
​He opens the car door and walks inside.

​"Hey, honey! You're late," Sarah says, not looking up from her phone. "Did you remember to transfer the tuition fees? The school sent a reminder."
​She didn't bother to ask how he is.

​"Yeah, I did it," David says, kissing her cheek. She accepts the kiss, but she doesn't lean into it. That moment, he felt like he is just part of the furniture. A utility provider that keeps the lights on.

​Later that night, in bed, David reaches out. He runs his hand down her arm, starving for a touch that isn't transactional. He just wants to feel desired. He wants to know he matters.
​Sarah sighs. A heavy, annoyed sigh. "David, I'm exhausted. The kids were a nightmare today. Can we just sleep?"

​He pulls his hand back immediately, humiliated. The "Beggar Dynamic" kicks in. He feels gross for even asking. He turns his back to her, staring at the wall.
​Lying there, in the house he built, next to the woman he loves, David realizes the terrifying truth:
​If he died tomorrow, they would miss him.
But if he went broke tomorrow, hmm...
​He realizes he isn't loved unconditionally like his daughter or the dog. He is on a performance contract. As long as the payments clear, he is allowed to stay.
​He closes his eyes. The panic returns. But he stays silent.

​Because the only safe space he has left is inside his own head.

Y lo ecuatorianos se preguntan por qué sus jugadores estaban cagados…

Desde ahí ya iban perdiendo.
El Azteca se los comió.

Están ante estrellas mundiales que probablemente jamás vuelvan a ver así de cerca y los abuchean.

MI PUTISIMO PAIS. ESTA ES MI GENTE.

Te das cuenta que todos compraron el discurso yankee en contra de México y que no dicen absolutamente nada de que a Iran lo mandaron a dormir todos los días a Tijuana, que a Inglaterra le robaron sus pertenencias en Kansas City y los tiroteos cerca de las bases de entrenamientos.

La neta les voy a decir algo así de huevos, creo que el domingo será algo épico épico y no mamadas.

No veo a México apretando el culo ganando 1-0 o haciendo la heroica en penales, veo a México ganando 3-0.
