    QUERENCIA
    noun
    1. Affection professed towards someone or something.
    2. Tendency of man and certain animals to return to the place where they have been raised or are used to going.
    Querencia is a metaphysical concept in the Spanish language. The term comes from the Spanish verb "querer", which means "to desire."

    Mina has only wished for three things in her entire life. The dance – the most important part of her, the extension of her body and the reason for her breathing, her most intimate and expressive language –, her biggest loss. Success, which was taken from her before her hand could even touch it. And being a good mother, which she still didn't know was within her reach or not. But.

    Now she's close to her thirties and maybe she's wishing something new. Perhaps this desire isn't necessarily new. Perhaps not something, but someone.
