but I cannot answer the phone. I want to,
but I can’t. He calls again. He texts me.
He wants to know why I’m ignoring him.
He says,
I am watching CNN and today is
about NYU medical students.
All medical students have tuition for
free. Would you consider being a doctor?
Lol I hope.
Things aren’t going so well
with the You. ¡Que pena!
Mostly because
he can’t see her anymore and when
he does all they do is fight.
He is concerned with what happened
that night with the candles.
But the You has never had
to investigate himself,
has never had the instinct
to turn a mirror into a person.
They are whisper-fighting down
a street when Melissa receives an e-mail.
