She nudged Jason toward the bathroom. With a boyish grin, Jason cupped Estrella’s face in his hands and planted a quick kiss on her lips. “Honey, just wait for me, okay?

But no matter how much he called her name, she only seemed to sleep deeper.

Jason felt as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over him-chilled to the core.
