Vedika Pinto, ah-ji. My daughter Juliana showed me her picture on the phone — all mud and sweat, holding that hockey stick like it was a part of her arm. I was folding the night-shift linen at 3am, thinking of that knee I bandaged last week that wouldn’t stop bleeding, and I remembered my mother’s saying: *"Bokddem naka, ghoddiek zai."* Don’t need a boast, need a wound that heals right. Let them give her the ground and the goalposts; she’ll teach the rest of us what a straight spine looks like.
