Epifanio wants out, but Camila doesn't agree. He tries using force, but her mind is set on being free. They love each other as much as they hate each other. Her downfall is her stubborn pride. Will love help them come to terms, or will it be a full...
"You seriously don't remember slapping her at all?" Rosario asked.
"No! I don't! For a split second, it felt like time froze and the next thing I knew she was facing away from me. I don't remember doing it at all......." Epifanio answered.

He knew he fucked up this time. He really didn't know he slapped her. Sometimes he would do things he never realized he was doing. This was a first. Epifanio never hit Camila once, and now he had. Now Camila was going to think all he would do was abuse her.
"You're going to have to tell her you messed up bad this time, and I mean very bad," Rosario told Epifanio. "You need to say it in person, not over the phone. It will mean more."
"She'll most likely try to run away. There's no point in trying."
"If you don't try then things will never be fixed between the both of you. You love her with all your heart, and yet you manage to let hate blind you into forcing yourselves apart. You need to tell her you love her, you're sorry, and you want her to come home. And some other stuff that you should have explained to her rather than me but we don't talk about that."
"So I'm just supposed to go up to her and say I'm sorry I want just mad, I love you, and I want to have intercourse with you? Is that it?"
"I'm not sure how to respond to that..... But I can tell you that you either make up, or this lasts forever."
"Not necessarily. There is another way it will end, but it isn't pretty. I regret doing it now because I'm sure she'll sign at this point."
"Sign? Sign what?"
"The divorce papers I gave her."
"You did what?!"
"I meant to tell her that I didn't want to keep hurting her emotionally and now physically when I gave them to her. Not what I had."
"What did you say?!"
"I wish I hadn't said it."
Rosario finished talking with Epifanio and went home. She'd be staying in Mexico for the next few days to stay with her kids and grandkids. She hadn't seen them in a while and Camila gave her permission to take some time off of work to see them.
Camila was trying to get a flight home. The lines were especially long. Suddenly, everyone started to leave. She kept moving forward when a woman took her arm. She told Camila that there would not be any flights for the next few days until the airport found out what was going on. One of the planes had exploded. It was Camila's plane.
Rosario allowed Camila to stay with her until she could get back to Texas. Rosario would take Camila with her every now and then to make sure she got up each day. Sometimes Camila would watch the kids when everyone else went out for the day. They would always call her Nana Camila, even though she wasn't their real nana.
