"What happened there?" Cheryl asked, scooting closer.
Ivy didn't answer immediately; her heart was still hurting. She turned away, gazing out the car window.
"Are you okay?"
The concern in Cheryl's voice got to her. Ivy turned quickly, offering a faint smile. "Yes, yes, I'm good," she said. "I'm... just in shock."
And in pain, but she didn't add that.
Cheryl squeezed her thigh gently. "Sorry. I-" She was interrupted by her baby's
COOS.
She adjusted him, opened her blouse, and gently guided her nipple into his mouth.
Ivy looked away. She knew she was supposed to be uncomfortable with the sight, but instead, she felt moved-awed by the beauty and technicality of it. And maybe, a little jealous.
If there was one thing Cheryl had that she didn't, it was unconditional love. To be loved without fear. To be loved without remorse.

Ivy lifted her head to see what had made him shout. Across the road, a car had collided with a jeep.
The occupants-which Ivy guessed were an old man and some young children- were talking to a television reporter.
"That looks serious," Cheryl said, leaning forward to see.
Ivy glanced at her, surprised she was even aware of her surroundings. Maybe the depression was wearing off, she thought.
"So many reporters," Jonathan said, slowing the car so they could catch everything.
Ivy turned back to the scene, noticing the other journalists vying for the old man's attention.
"If there are this many reporters, the accident must've been serious," Cheryl said. She had finished feeding her son and was tapping his back softly, like a
seasoned mother.
"Absolutely," Jonathan agreed. "Either serious or-"
"An important person was involved," Ivy and Jonathan said in unison.
Ivy's chest tightened. Only one name came to mind/"Theresa."
Quickly, she pulled her phone from her back and dialed Theresa's number. It rang twice before it was answered.
"Hello?" It was Hector.
"Hey, Hector," she said, panic rising in her voice. "Where's Theresa?"
"She's sleeping."

The panic intensified. "Is she... okay?"
"Not really," Hector replied softly. "But she's good. Just upset."
Upset. Not hurt. Good.
"Alright," Ivy exhaled, relieved. "Thank you, Hector. I'll call again later?
