In Adela's Eyes, Part 1 - Eleni Noah
"He was no longer angry, but he would have preferred to be because what had settled inside him and wouldn't go away was even worse".
Eleni Noah has a notebook where she jots down loose ideas that catch her attention and have the potential of a story. That’s where she found the line “a rancher who cries when no one sees him because he feels lonely”.
She remembers writing it down after hearing the anecdote from a friend. His brother, a rancher, had confessed he felt very lonely after a round of beers. Eleni and her friend laughed about it, not in mockery but because of the peculiar picture. Then they both reflected on the power of loneliness to break people’s pride. And also how important and precious was it to have someone to share life with. You couldn’t buy it with all the gold in the world.

ABOUT TWO SOUTHERN CORNERS
We are Nelly Sarpong from West Africa and Eleni Noah from South America.
The idea for Two Southern Corners was born a year ago after we met and became friends at a dinner party. We instantly connected thanks to our common passion for writing.
After Covid hit the world, and we all had to quarantine, we started talking about how we could write consistently. Then the idea of having readers (like you) lit up like a bulb. The thought of you, eager and waiting every week for one of our stories, inspired us. So, you, our dear reader, are the heart of this site. If it weren’t for you, none of these short stories would exist.
The name of our site is pretty simple yet interesting. Paraguay and Ghana are both in the southern part of the world and on almost exactly opposite sides. Also, even though Latinos and Africans live so far away, we found out we have so much in common; never-ending summers, bright personalities, vibrant cultures, and even similar ways of thinking. That’s the spirit behind the name Two Southern Corners.
