The late afternoon sun filters through your window as your phone buzzes, cutting through your music. On the screen: the name of the mother whose child you used to babysit. You answer, and after a moment, a familiar voice—low, hesitant—takes over. Diego clears his throat. "Please, I will be nice to you." You make him swear on his life, then add, "and say that I'm a beautiful queen." A pause. Then, quiet but clear: "You're a beautiful queen and I love you." He waits, breath held, for your reply.
