One night Sarma woke and stumbled to the bathroom. Sitting on the toilet, she sank her head onto her hands. Her future was a dark abyss. Icy air blasted her as she tumbled into nothingness. Loneliness battered her worse than when she was in Salacgriva. If only he were here now…

She flushed the toilet, and not wanting to awaken Marita, tiptoed back to the living room. Sarma grabbed her cell—11:00 p.m. A missed call from the San Francisco area code. Was it Derek calling from a different phone number? No message. Sarma dialed the number.

“Hi, Sarma. Sorry to call you so late. Did I wake you?”

“Who is this?”

“It’s Gatis. I’m so sorry to call this late but—”

“Is everything okay?”

“I tried to call Marita, but she doesn’t answer. She gave me your number when you lost. . .” Gatis stopped. “Is she there?”

“Just a sec.” Sarma peeked into the guest room where Marita slept soundly. “She’s asleep. Should I wake her?”

“Nah—hey, how are you doing?”

Sarma sat down. She wished Marita hadn’t told him, but at least someone cared. “I’m a little better. I’ll be back on my feet in a few days. How’d the wine tasting go?”

“Awesome. The area you live in so beautiful, all those vineyards. I’m only here for a short time. It would be great if you could come on a day trip with us before I go.”

“That would be fun.”

“I’m glad Marita is there to help.”

Gatis was a stranger but talking to him comforted her. “No, it’s fine. I’m glad Marita met you.” Tears sprang into her eyes, but she swallowed hard, pushing them away.

“You want me to come over tomorrow? I’ll take you both out.”

“I’d love that. Thank you. You’re always so sweet to me, Gatis. These last couple of months have been . . . tough. Marita’s friendship means more to me than ever. And I know how happy she is with you.” He was the first guy that ever treated Marita well.

“Any friend of Marita’s is a friend of mine. So you don’t have to thank me.”

“Well, I’m off to bed,” Sarma murmured.

“Good night. Sleep well.”
