  • THE DON'S MAID   Chapter 29: THE BOWL

    Sal flipped every soup bowl until we got to Elena’s bowl and under it there was a small folded paper and it said Hi Maya. It’s me. The one who loves Sal more than you ever could. And I’ve been in this house longer than you.Everyone looked at Elena.Elena stood up shaking."It’s not me. I swear it’s not me. I didn’t write that. Why would I put note under my own bowl, that’s stupid, I would put it under someone else’s bowl"But Sal’s eyes were already on her and his eyes were not husband eyes, they were Don eyes."Elena, you were in this house since you were 14. You had dinner here every Sunday with my father. You know blind spots. You know lake house. You were at docks tied up but you weren’t tied tight, Marco said rope was loose."Elena cried "Because Daniel is 19 and doesn’t know how to tie rope, not because I — "Marco interrupted."Boss, I checked cameras from tonight. Elena’s car. She arrived at house 2 hours before you. She said she was kidnapped for 2 days but her car has fresh

    I stood upstairs with the photo in my hand shaking so hard I couldn’t breathe and downstairs someone laughed again, a woman’s laugh, and I heard Sal say "Mama more bread" and Elena say "This soup is good" and Ana say "Thank you" and I knew whoever took that photo at the docks was downstairs right now eating soup with my daughter asleep in my arms.I walked downstairs slowly with sofia in my armsPhoto hidden in my pajama pocketEveryone looked upSal smiled tiredHis mom stood up "Maya you should eat."I looked at each face.Ana - crying still, holding her mother’s hand tight.Ana’s mother - old, praying till, hands shakingElena - hair messy, lipstick gone, eating soup like she hadn’t eaten in 2 daysMarco - standing by door, not eating, guarding.Sal’s mom - servingWhoWho took photo of me hugging Daniel at the docks tonight.Only people there were us and police.Unless someone at docks was hidden watching.Unless someone told Daniel where to hide Elena’s photo on his wallUnless s

    Midnight.The docks smelled like fish and diesel and cold water and Sal held my hand so tight I lost feeling and Marco was behind us with 3 men hidden in the shadows and Ana was in the car with Sofia and Sofia’s grandma and Leo because Sal said "No child sees this, no matter what" and I agreed because I didn’t want Sofia to see the place where Victor died come back through his son.Daniel was waiting in the old fish factory with one light bulb swinging and Elena tied to a chair in the middle and her mouth taped and her eyes red and swollen from crying all day and next to her was Ana’s mother, tiny old woman tied too but not taped, just crying quietly praying in Spanish.And in the middle was Daniel.Same nose as Victor. Same jacket. Black leather with red stitch. But younger. Skinnier. Trying to be hard but his hands shaking holding a gun that was too big for him."You came," he said and smiled but it wasn’t smile, it was Victor’s smile copy pasted. "I thought you wouldn’t come, Maya.

  • THE DON'S MAID   Chapter 26: THE HEADLINES

    Sal drove so fast on the lake road that the trees blurred and the fog ate the headlights and Sofia kept saying "Papa fast, Papa fast" like it was a game but it wasn’t a game because the black SUV with no plates behind us stayed exactly three car lengths behind no matter how fast Sal went and when he sped up it sped up and when he slowed it slowed and I knew that game, I knew that game from 5 years ago when Victor used to follow me before he tried to take me.My phone buzzed and it was the same unknown number and it was a photo of our car from behind taken right now by the car following us and the text said Stop running Maya you know you want to see me and I showed it to Sal and his jaw clenched so hard I heard his teeth.He called Marco on loudspeaker and said "Lake road north black SUV no plates following for 10 minutes" and Marco said "I’m 20 minutes away don’t stop keep driving to main road I’ll cut him off" but 20 minutes was too long, 20 minutes on this road at 4am with Sofia in

    I called Sal and he came running and he read the note that someone had put in Sofia’s pocket and he went white like all the blood left his face and then we heard Leo barking like crazy in the glass garden again and Marco was already running there with his gun and his mom grabbed Sofia from me and said "Inside, panic room, now" but I couldn’t move because my hands were shaking holding that little piece of paper that had been inside my daughter’s clothes, inside her pocket, where her little hand goes when she collects rocks.Someone touched my daughter.Someone touched my daughter and put a note in her pocket and wrote Chapter 25 will break her.Me.Her.It meant me. It was going to break me.Sal ran to the garden.I ran after him even though his mom yelled "Maya no" because I’m her mother and if someone touched her I need to see where.In the glass garden there was nothing at first.Just Leo barking at the bench.Then Marco lifted the bench again and under it there was a second box.No
