I don't know about her matrix, but I'd have let them kill me in the womb, so as not to come out into the world at all, miss."

Aureliano José had been destined to find with her the happiness that Amaranta had denied him, to have seven children, and to die in her arms of old age, but the bullet that entered his back and shattered his chest had been directed by a wrong interpretation of the cards."
