“Do me good to get away from all this computer stuff,” Daddy says. “Move someplace where the pace is slower. Maybe make some friends. What do you think?”
“I think you’re doing it for me,” I say.
“Why not?” Daddy says.
“Oh, Daddy,” I say. And I cry. And I kiss him. And then I kiss José. And he does his duck and blush and has to get up and leave the table. And I go after him, and when we come back and sit down together, everybody is acting like nothing has happened, which is cool and the way it should be.
“You know what, Aunt Ariel?” I say. “You were wrong about home. It isn’t the place where when you have to go there they have to take you in. It’s the place where, when you want to go there they want to take you in.”
And my home just got very huge indeed.
Blesséd be.
