    On Sunday night Lucia didn't eat after midnight.She lay on her back staring at the ceiling with an empty stomach and a louder head. The house was uncomfortably quiet with no warmth in it. At least to her.She thought about the needle they'd put in her arm tomorrow.The hormones. The appointments. The whole cold clinical process of something that was supposed to mean something real to someone somewhere. Her Alex.She had always vaguely imagined having children someday with someone she loved and in a home that was hers when the right time cone and with her own choice fully.

    Lucia did as she had said.She called Alex at ten PM while sitting on the edge of the bed in Diego's guest room. She couldn't possibly sleep in his room. She'd rather sleep in the toilet than beside him.It rang like three times before he picked up."Hey." His voice was somehow like he wasnt really happy. How could he even be?"Hey." She exhaled. "I said I'd call.""You did."Then an uncomfortable silence set in . "How's the house?" Alex asked. "It's actually very big." She looked around the room with it Cream walls, soft lighting, everything tasteful and impersonal. "But it feels foreign.""Are you okay?"The question was simple but the answer wasn't because she is clearly not. She just wanted to go back to the love of her life."I'm managing," she said.Alex didn't say anything at first but she could hear his breathe.
