Chapter 2

Antonio pushed open the door and found Grace on the floor, vomiting.

For once, he showed a bit of softness. "Hey, what's up? You okay?"

It felt like a formality, polite but not genuine.

If it were Yesenia, he'd be rushing her to the hospital in a heartbeat.

Grace struggled to her feet, looking as pale as a ghost. She had no energy left to argue. "I'm fine," she said flatly.

Antonio nodded, looking relieved. "Yesenia's not feeling well, and she burned her hand making soup. How about you make it for her every day? She'll forgive you for talking smack."

Grace sneered, "Me making her soup after she caused Talia's death? I'd be happy to chop her up. I-”

A loud slap shut her up.

Antonio's disappointment was clear.

"Seriously? You call yourself a mom? How can you say stuff like that? Yesenia's dad saved us, and now she's on her own. Can't you just leave her alone?"

Yeah, Yesenia was "on her own" with Antonio's full support.
