Chapter 107

• The hours had passed, and I was still locked in my room. No one bothered me, and I was sure it was because Lita most likely told them not to. Otherwise, Luis or my dad, who jumped at every opportunity to see me—would’ve said anything by now.
• “Siena is asleep.” My mom whispered as she walked in with a cup of tea. It was already late, and she had taken care of Siena for the entire evening. “I don’t know how to thank you.” I smiled and grabbed the cup from her hands.
• “I’m not doing you a favor. I’m taking care of my granddaughter—I should be the one thanking you.” She spoke and held her hand against my cheek. “I’ve missed so much time with you, but Siena reminds me of you, so I feel like I can make up for it.”
