Without the need of a watch Tacoma knew it was well past noon, well past doom. Mama Marcella had caught back up with him, and stood next to the young man she loved as if he was her own child. She put a hand on his shoulder and gently said, “Let’s go back to the cave and check on them… perhaps Slash was able to…” The grip he had on himself faltered, and the agony he had successfully repressed rushed out of him.

Mama Marcella wrapped her arms around him as he tremored in despair. He couldn’t consider going back to that cave, it would mean he had to face a reality that he could somewhat disregard. Wiping the tears from his face he attempted to readjust his posture, “I can’t go back there and see them… like that… I can’t have that be the last picture of them in my mind.”

“So what are you going to do, chico?”

“I don’t know, just leave me here. Go back to the cave and tell the hyenas I thank them but I ain’t coming back. Goodbye Mama Marcella.” She didn’t have to be occasionally able to decipher thoughts to read between his lines, “Aye, and what about Seattle? You think if you just let yourself perish you can just go be with her in the crossroads eh? It doesn’t work that way Dagoma. If you set yourself up for death it will be just that. Death, no mas, finito.”

“That’s the best thing going. I’m sick of everyone I love kickin’ the fucking bucket. Cece, Raider… Hel…Helen… and Men…elik…” his head slumped, “…at…at…this rate I’m surprised you and Slow Poke are still alive, I won’t go through this shit no more. I can’t … goodbye Mama Marcella.”

Her wrinkled hand trembled before she raised it and slapped Tacoma across his face with so much might that her palms stung afterwards. “Tighten up chico, you think it’s just about you eh? Wah-wah-wah…” she mimicked his voice in a mocking tone but the tears on her face were far from sarcastic. “What about me Dagoma? Did I not love you and Seattle like you were my own? Was Pedro not my flesh and blood? Starburst, well ok you win some, you lose some… but what about Helen, eh? I taught her what took me 1000 years to learn in… and…and…the baby…” Mama Marcella jaw began to vibrate “… and now you want me to lose you too? No, no, no, fuck you niño, I’m not going nowhere. You wanna sit here and let yourself die, well I will too then!” she crossed her arms in anger signifying she would not leave. They were at an impasse.
