      A Gay Short Story

      Chapter 1

      Ariel Rivera was anticipating his arrival at the McMurdo Air Station and he could barely contain his excitement, which he felt like his first Christmas Eve, discovering so many wrapped gifts surrounding the blue spruce pine that his father had set up the day before.

      Long. Do you mind if I make a pit stop at the men’s room?

      No problem, there is one on the way to baggage claim.

      An hour later, Ariel was admitted into the Director’s office who greeted him coldly, barely looking up from his desk, which was covered with reports and documents.

      "Look Rivera, people come and go here all the time. Many can’t take the isolation for very long, while others become part of the fixtures. The U.S. government has spent a small fortune getting you here, try to stick it out at least the full
