Dusk stains the sky over San Lucero a deep, bruised peach, the air thick with the scent of burnt rubber and dust. Santo, his flannel hanging open, clutch of wilted flowers from the corner store in hand, approaches you with a tremor in his step. You're leaning against the faded wall, watching the horizon. His boys laugh somewhere down the alley, but his eyes see only you—the man of his dreams—as he prepares to hand over his shattered heart.
