Carmen stared at Shane and their gazes met.
Shane stopped mid-step, amazed, her lips parted. She felt something, deep inside her soul, something painful and tragically sweet at the same time, just at the sight of the only woman who had ever crowded her thoughts… in a whole eternity.
She swallowed, her heart missed a beat, her mouth went dry. Shane wasn’t human, but everything she felt in that precise moment definitely was.
Shane walked over slowly, holding the tray firmly into her hands, and placed it on the table, her eyes still focused on Carmen.
“Hi”, she mouthed, soundlessly, and beamed.
“Hi”, Carmen replied, under her breath.
Dante’s eyes shifted from Shane to Carmen, and then to Shane again, and he smiled slyly. He grabbed a sandwich from the tray and passed it to Carmen, winking.
“You got an appetite?”, he asked.
Carmen took the sandwich and placed it into her place. Her stomach was knotted.
“Have a beer, Shane”, Dante said, patting the chair beside him, and Shane sat down, blushing.
Alice covered Dante’s eyes with the palms of her hands and rested her breasts against his back.
“Who’s that?”, she chirped.
Dante sighed helplessly, touching her hands and forearms.
“Huh, I have no idea. Are you Joanna, the lady from the… .gif’ border=’0′ style=’vertical-align:middle’ alt=’.gif’ />!”, he laughed when Alice slapped him on the head.
She sneaked her arms around his neck and kissed him on the cheek, resting her chin on his shoulder.
“So, Shane, where are you from?”, she asked with a smile.
“Up”, Shane replied immediately, simply.
“North”, Dante intervened immediately, glancing at Carmen, “Uh, Canada”.
Right then Hanna, the youngest of Dante and Alice’s kids, ran over Shane and jumped into her lap. Shane smiled gently as Hanna took her hand and placed it on her own head.
“Listen. Can you hear?”, she whispered to Shane, “…I’m growing…”.
Alice grabbed her old Polaroid camera and aimed it at the two.
“Smile, Hanna”, she exclaimed, taking a picture. Shane squirmed against the light, then smiled at the 5-year old when she placed her tiny hands on her cheeks, studying her attentively.
“How long have you known Shane?”, Carmen asked to Dante.
He moved on his chair, a little uncomfortably, perhaps.
