The power went out and the whole street sat on its front steps

emily_lalibertad · Parque Central, La Libertad · Oct 12

The power went out at dusk in La Libertad. The whole street ended up on their front steps with candles, radios and plastic chairs. A neighbour I did not know passed me a cup of coffee. Someone started a story about a storm from years ago and it went on for three hours. When the lights came back, nobody went in right away. We sat there another ten minutes in the light. I do not remember the story. I remember the coffee, and that nobody wanted to be first.
