"You're so small," Hera's mother would often remark. "A speck. Always hiding. Always running away." Her mother, thin to the bone, wore long skirts that came down to the floor. Her unearthly aura was magnified by this combination--a weightless being, floating along the ground.
Hera had never viewed her mother as quite human. It wasn't that her mother didn't yell like everyone else, because she hollered quite loud. It wasn't even that her mother didn't hit the television set when it malfunctioned, because she did. Her mother cried and screamed and became angry, just like her father, aunts and brothers. But she held everything in the house together. She held the mess, the fights, the empty bank account, and the broken television set to her breast, and carried it all. When her father began his descent into bed, her mother shouldered that too. He had been felled by a creeping cough, relentless fatigue, and eventually, sadness. Nobody else, that Hera had seen, was capable of carrying such misery around.
Hera didn't think much of it, but she never cried, screamed, or got mad. She hid. She was tiny for ten, so perhaps her brain told her: this is the best plan. This is Survival 101, and I am Amygdala, your professor. Hiding will protect you. "Skittish little Speckster," her mother would say, fretfully, "a bird." In hindsight, Hera supposed she was quite a contrast from her two older brothers. Big, with something to prove. Hera couldn't think of anything to prove, so she made herself invisible. Most often she stayed behind the stuffed living room chair when she could. Playing with finger strings. It was the best place to be.
