Of the fourteen eunuchs sharing the bedroom, only three felt something was missing. From those three, only one, Juan Pablo, dared to speak up. “Am I less of a man, today?” he would ask. “Yesterday,” his roommates would say, “you were but a boy. Tomorrow, the game will end, set and match.”
I read it once, and then I looked up what "Eunuch" meant, and I read it again. That was something. Good stuff.
