After Antarctica, the next leg would take Rei north to Calama & San Pedro de Atacama. He wanted to see the decommissioned Vera C. Rubin Observatory and set aside several weeks to explore the region. From there, he would return to Calama, fly into Arica, and take a robobus.

For the first time since Windy, Rei felt like he was moving forward. He and his parents planned the trip in detail. Rei would fly into Santiago and acclimatize. He'd explore the city, visit museums, do the tourist things. From there, he would head south to Punta Arenas.

He downloaded Spanish into his wrist computer for the translator, but chose to learn it himself. Each day he practiced Spanish, drilling the basics. Dónde está el baño. Cuánto cuesta. Necesito ayuda. Simple, practical words. They weren’t for depth, just enough to get by.

"That’s something you’ll need to handle before anything."
Rei’s shoulders sagged from relief. He rose, hugged his parents and whispered, “I love you. Thank you.”
Even in 2060, passports still took 6 weeks. The delay gave Rei breathing room to absorb the details of the trip
#BookSky #ReisStory #scifi

"Go see Antarctica before it’s completely gone. The ice won’t last forever.”
For the first time in a week, Rei smiled “That sounds great. You’re both really okay with it?”
Ruth nodded. “Yes, we’re okay with it. We’ll even help plan the trip. But you don’t have a passport"
#BookSky #ReisStory #scifi

"That sounds like what I need too. What do you think?”
Ruth nodded. “Your father and I went there years ago. We went to Santiago, saw penguins in Punta Arenas. We even made it to the Falkland Islands.”
“If you’re going to go, you might as well go all the way,” said Edward

We end with Saquon Barkley: all about redemption, resilience, and rewriting the story on his own terms.

Philly style. 🦅🔥

“My business is doing fine, and with you getting a scholarship, I think we can swing it. I know you said you didn’t know, but any clue what you want to do?”
“Helen suggested a trip to the tip of South America. She said it made her feel small and whole at the same time. "
#BookSky #ReisStory #scifi

Edward shook his head. “To do what exactly?”
Rei shrugged. “I know it’s cliché, but I need to find myself again. Seeing Windy threw me off, and I don’t know how to explain it. I just need to figure out who I am, outside of all that.”
Edward glanced at Ruth who shrugged.

Next up in the “comparing the Philadelphia Eagles to my book characters" series:

Howie Roseman, the ultimate puppet master. Pulling the strings… in all the best ways. And we love him for it. 🦅📚 #BookSky #sciencefiction #scifi

“I don’t want to get into it, but…”
“But what?” Dad asked.
Rei let it out a long sigh. His mind raced through how to phrase his question. He finally decided the simplest approach would be the best. “Assuming Syracuse lets me defer, what would you say if I took a year off?”
#BookSky #ReisStory #scifi

“And Hiroki’s headed there,” Ruth offered brightly.
“Yeah. That’ll be good. But…” Rei set down his fork.
“But what?” Edward asked.
Rei stared at his plate then lifted his eyes. “I don’t know if I’m ready.”
Ruth tilted her head. “Ready for what?”
“To go.”
Rei looked away.

Every story has a villain. Want to guess who the villain in the Philadelphia Eagles story is? #BookSky #sciencefiction

“Which one would you rather go to?” Ruth asked.
Rei poked at his food. “I don’t think I have a choice.”
Edward frowned. “What do you mean?”
“SU offered me a scholarship to be on the swim team. I was planning to walk on but this means it’s for real, right from the start.”
#BookSky #ReisStory #scifi

Rei sighed. “Well, you’ll be happy. I didn’t get into any of the Cali schools.”
Ruth & Edward exchanged a quick smile, then caught themselves.
“But,” Rei added, “I did get into Michigan & Syracuse.”
“That’s great, Buddy!” Edward beamed. His father had gone to Michigan.
#BookSky #ReisStory #scifi

Still, Rei couldn’t make peace with it. He wasn’t ready. The hurt was too raw. That night at dinner, Rei decided to broach the subject. He took his usual seat as his mother set down one of her prized chicken recipes.
“So. We know you got your acceptance letters. Tell us."

One of the coolest things about creating this world, is that I've been able to work with my brother as the illustrator!

Special shoutout to Bruce Brachman for the incredible artwork and bringing this world to life. #Booksky #sciencefiction #scifi

On the 4th day, his inbox pinged incessantly. It was good news, bad news. The California schools had passed. But the University of Michigan and Syracuse said yes. Syracuse sweetened the offer with a nearly full swimming scholarship. Fate seemed to be nudging him toward it.
#BookSky #ReisStory #scifi

The memory of those weeks felt like a film scorched by overheated lamps. The calming hum of the house’s air filters filled the silence, a faint buzz that echoed the static in Rei’s chest. Every memory of Windy’s laugh felt like a sharp shard, lodged too deep to pull out.
#BookSky #ReisStory #scifi

Rei arrived home from LA a broken young man. It wasn’t permanent but it was fresh. When his parents asked about the trip, he shrugged it off. “It was… OK.” No matter how much they probed, that's all he offered. He spent a few days alone in his room, staring at the ceiling.

Before we travel to South America, I thought I'd give you a peek at what the book looks like in full print, rather than little snippets at a time. Tomorrow, we'll head south. I promise!
