Cisco wrenched the stubborn plug out of the ’97 Bronco. Oil splattered his cheek and the Quaker State cap that he always wore backward to keep the bill out of his way. A muddy brown stream ran out of the car while Enrique yammered about some hottie in Lawn and Garden. The Cuban radio station sputtered news from Havana.

Cisco scrubbed at his cheek with the sleeve of his work shirt. “Shut up.”

Enrique peered down at him through the gap in the grate. “Qué pasa, man?”

“You’ve got a wife. When you going to act like it?”

Enrique’s eyes narrowed. “Oh, like you’re livin’ the life of a priest—” He reached for the oil hose.

Cisco gave him his back and palmed the plug.

He wasn’t cheating on Avra. They were over. Why did he feel like a worse swine than Enrique? Maybe it was the run-in he’d had with Jesse yesterday. Where did Jesse get off telling him how to run his life? He grunted at Enrique to start filling the tank.

“Cisco.”

He looked up. Isabel leaned against the chain-link fence and peered down into the hole at him. He jogged up the steps.

He motioned toward her blue Walmart uniform. “What are you doing in that?”

“I quit Stavro’s. Got a job as a checker.”

“Great.” He smiled to make it more convincing.

She pushed off the fence and walked toward him. She stopped two inches from his toes and planted a wet kiss on his lips.

His eyes swept the car bays to see if anyone noticed. Enrique shot him a smug look.

“I thought we’d be closer,” she said.

His gaze settled on the lace and the roundness peeking from the gap in the open smock. One brow quirked at him. She knew exactly what she was doing. “Later.” She tucked her hands into her smock pockets, pulling the fabric smooth against her body, and walked away.

Like a marionette, he watched.
