Back at her apartment, Elena took some time to rest and read, only walking over to the restaurant in the very late afternoon. Alvin slumped on the porch, enjoying the sunlight. Roberto washed dishes, singing along to the radio, and Ivan scraped a bowl clean with a spatula. He looked fine, and she realized that she’d been worried that the drinking would make him binge. “You didn’t have to come in,” she said.

Ivan shrugged. “I know.”

“Is Hector here today?” she asked.

“Tomorrow,” Roberto said. “He has Sundays off when he can. Likes to go to mass.”

“Does he have a sister?” Elena asked.

Roberto raised his head. After a moment, he nodded. He touched his temple. “Ella es adivina.”

Fortune-teller. “Will you see Hector tonight? Will you tell him for me that I want to see her?”

Roberto nodded. He rinsed the bowl and put it away. From his pocket, he brought out a cell phone and punched in the numbers. Elena left him to it and went to the office. She had paperwork to do.

There was an email from Mia, of course. Ripe anger bloomed in her throat and she was tempted to delete the post unread. Instead, she stabbed the button to open it.
