Rafael held a hand out to her, and she crossed the room to take it. “Thank you, my dear.

It was uncalled for, and I hope you accept my deepest regrets. Maybe, if you come back, we can have a better time.”
Her gaze sought Duncan, and he stood there, his mouth hanging slightly open. A piercing wail from the bathroom drew their immediate attention. Lupe stood, holding her apron over her face, sobbing into her hands.

“Why didn’t you tell me he’s going to die?” She covered her face again and sobbed her heart out.
“No, he’s not. Why would you say that?” In desperation, Rebel looked at Duncan for help.
