Soul
“It’s Maria. Her smile is huge.
“Cara bonita, you are a sight for very sore eyes.” She sits in the chair next to me, clasps my hand in both of hers then pulls them to her cheeks. The olive of her skin is a stark contrast to the pallor and bruises of my own. A long breath escapes her lips. Two tears fall delicately down her cheeks.
“No,” I shake my head. “I’m okay, really.” Those full lips of hers tip upward slightly but can’t seem to hold onto a smile.
“Gigi, we almost lost you. Ido.... Gone. I cannot lose you. You, the girls, you’re all I have.”
I frown. “That’s not true. You have Tommy and Phil, and Chase.”
She laughs before her ice-blue eyes focus on mine and she gets very close. Her nose touches mine and she nuzzles it then rests her forehead against the crown of mine. “It’s not the same, and you know that cara bonita.”
I do know that.MoreLess
