head.
    “What?” he said.
    “It’s sleep like the dead.”
    “Same thing.”
    She took another sip, her mind following her body in waking. “Why are you naked?”
    “Is there something wrong with how I’m dressed?” He turned to the side, slowly showcasing his body, and she laughed at his silliness. “This is how Portuguese men spend their mornings.”
    “Naked?”
    “Yes. Every morning. Every single one of us.” He sat down on the bed. “You should try it.” He took the mug from her hands, and unraveled her from the sheets.
    “Should I?”
    “Yes, you should,” Bruno said, nodding his head.
    She watched his lips; they were mere inches from hers. He leaned in and kissed her softly. He tasted like coffee and more mornings like this. His strong hands cupped her face, and her body went weak under his touch.
    Reality broke in with the sound of her buzzing phone. Jack.
    “I need to get this,” she said.
    Bruno’s face changed to something she didn’t like. “Sure. I should probably check in too.”
    She swiped her phone from the nightstand and walked into the bathroom, dragging the sheet behind her.
    “Hello?” she said softly into the phone.
    “How’s it going there?” Jack’s voice sounded controlled and deceptive, like lava creeping down her skin and searing every inch of her flesh.
    “Fine. How are the kids?” She could hear Ava and Max in the background, arguing. “Can I talk to them?”
    “Sure.” Jack held the phone away from his ear. “Who wants to talk to Mommy?”
    “I do,” She heard Ava say. “No, I do,” Max shouted.
    “Stop fighting,” Jack warned. “Ava, you first, honey.”
    “Hi, Mommy.” Ava said into the phone. “Are you having a good time?”
    Karen’s breath caught. Was she having a good time? The thought of lying to her daughter chilled her bones. “Yes, honey,” she croaked. “Let me speak to Max, OK?”
    “Ok, Mommy.”
    Karen heard Max grumble in the distance. “I don’t to want talk now,” he said.
    “Talk to your Mother,” Jack demanded.
    “Fine, Dad.” She could hear Max’s feet slap the marble floor as he walked to the phone. “Hi, Mom.”
    “Hi, Buddy. Everything OK?”
    “Yeah, Mom.”
    “Ok, Sweetie. I Love you.”
    “Love you too.”
    Max handed the phone back to Jack. She wished he hadn’t. She didn’t want to hear the apathy in his voice. “Everything’s fine. I’ll be home Sunday,” she offered because he didn’t ask when she left. “Tookta is off this afternoon so—“.
    “I already told her to go home,” Jack said cutting her off. “I want to spend time with the kids, remember?”
    Her muscles tensed hearing how eager Jack was to stay home when she wasn’t there. “I remember,” she said a little too low, hoping that her shaking voice didn’t betray her.
    “Tell him I said hi,” was the last thing she heard before ending the call.
    “No,” she said into the dead phone.
    Karen emerged from the bathroom to find Bruno dressed in shorts and a tee shirt. His face looked strained. She wanted to ask him what Marianna had said, but left it. Without words, the air between them filled.
    She approached the bed, to where he was sitting. “Am I your first?” she asked him.
    Bruno nodded. “I’ve never done this before. Marianna and I, we—” he started but stopped and Karen was relieved. She didn’t want to talk about his wife, or her husband. She just wanted to be with him until she wasn’t.
    He looked up at her, his eyes wide and trusting, yet suddenly youthful. “Am I yours?”
    She shook her head.
    “How many?” he asked. “Never mind, I don’t want to know.” He got up from the bed and walked to the sink. He filled a glass with cool water and drank it down. He wouldn’t look at her.
    Embarrassment washed over her, as if she was back in high school all over again, fighting for her reputation. “Just one other, Bruno,” she said. “Not that it’s any of your business.”
    She padded to her suitcase and
