Chapter 19: The Rehearsal

The gift bags slid in my arms.

Through the gap in the door, I could see the back of Esteban's head and the wall of screens.

He wasn't moving.

"Show me," he said.

"Not here, big guy." Curtis's voice was all sympathy. "Not at her shower. It's not pretty. After the rehearsal, when it's quiet, I'll show you everything."

I pushed the door open.

They both turned.

Curtis's face did nothing at all.

That was how I knew he'd heard me in the hall.

"Kiddo," he said. "Didn't see you there."

"Show him now," I said.

"Marisol." Esteban's voice was rough. "Go outside."

"No. If he has something, he can show it to you right here, with me in the room. There's nothing on that camera, because nothing happened."

Curtis shrugged.

"Then you've got nothing to worry about," he said. "Do you?"

Esteban looked at me.

For one second, I saw it on his face.

He didn't know.

He'd been drunk, and he'd never once been sure of that night.

He walked past me without a word.

Through the window, I watched him cross the terrace to Jocelyn and kiss the top of her curly head.
