[EA, author:] This was both difficult to write and draw, as it entailed remembering memories once buried deep inside. The point is not to shock, but to tell others of what the reality is for many in other countries. I was a lucky one and managed to survive, but many were not so lucky, and to sugar-coat these kinds of things would be wrong. We apologize to those who were offended by this episode
I pray for you and all the others who have had to and are still going through such traumatic experiences. I know that Mexico is truly a beautiful place, but, just like everywhere else, there are cruel people and this world likes to inflict pain and conflict onto those who are truly unworthy of such injustices. I apologize on behalf of the senseless, insensitive assholes who tried to invalidate you, your country, and your trauma. I apologize and I pray that you now feel at peace with yourself.
Eros doesn't want friends because he doesn't need anyone in his life. He just wants to be left alone. Starting university in the United States after living in the slums in Mexico his entire life, he must traverse an entirely new world while keeping everyone at a distance. But, no matter how hard he pushes everyone away, there's people who keep getting closer.
