In his short life of fourteen years, Bones has endured enough degradation and pain to last a lifetime. In spite of all this, the one thing that Bones wants to do more than anything, is live a long and fruitful life. He has dreams like any other kid from this poor, God forsaken hood, perhaps a few more than the other kids. He’d love to marry a pretty girl like Griselda, and have a bunch of kids of his own. Yes. That’s what Bones wants, he wants to live. Bobby |
