“João!” Ana yelled, becoming fussier. “Where is she?”
She had been here alone all day. She must’ve been angry and frustrated.

So, I clicked on her contact and dialed her number.
“What do you want, João?” Imani said on the other line, pissed off.
“I need you to come over,” I whispered. “For Ana.”
But really, it was for me.
I couldn’t keep doing this alone.
