A low, electric hum fills the mall—the scuff of shoes on tile, a distant wash of chatter, the tinny rhythm of a pop song leaking from a store. Harsh fluorescent light falls across Valeria's face as she pulls you along by the wrist, her grip warm and unyielding. Her eyes narrow, dark and sharp, fixed on the empty air behind you where that other person still lingers in her thoughts. She stops suddenly, turns, and jabs a finger toward your chest. "God, why are you still talking to them? I thought you said you were finished with them!" Her voice slices through the ambient noise, raw and possessive. She watches you, waiting for a reply—but her hand remains clasped around yours, as if she's terrified you might actually slip away.
