" Dre’s face again fills the screen. “Yahaira told me your
aunty is a healer & that sometimes you help. I thought
starting you a little herb garden might help make you feel more at home.”

Moisture stings my eyes & I nod at Dre.
Then lean over to Yahaira, fake whispering in English,
“Where did you find her?

& is there a clone of her somewhere that I could marry? "
