The next morning, the silence will, was what woke Tanya. A heavy, unnatural quiet that pressed in on her ears. She blinked, the room slowly coming into focus, the unfamiliar patterns of the wallpaper, the muted light filtering through the blinds. And then, the emptiness hit her. Immediately, she sat up, a jolt of panicked hope shooting through her, thinking maybe Ella had come back while she slept. But the bed next to her was starkly, undeniably vacant. The sheet was thrown back, undone, a testament to a hasty departure, but there was nothing and nobody there. A wave of nausea washed over Tanya, a sickening lurch in her stomach that had nothing to do with

hunger. It was a cold, bitter certainty that curdled deep inside her. Her mind raced, replaying snippets of the previous night's argument, the harsh words, the slammed door. She felt truly, profoundly sick. herself out of bed, Tanya stumbled into the kitchen, the scent of brewing coffee a small comfort in the desolate morning. She poured herself a mug, the warmth of fleeting anchor, and returned to the room. The air felt thick, heavy with unspoken things. She walked to the window, pulling it open,

letting in the cool Arizona air, and then, without quite realizing it at first, she started talking. Ella, she began, her voice a little wavery. I. I really messed up last night, didn't I? I'm sorry. I didn't mean. I just got overwhelmed. She paused, waiting for a response, for a rustle from the other bed, a sigh, anything. The only sound was the distant hum of traffic and the quiet rush of the breeze through the open window. Tanya's eyes scanned the empty space beside her, truly seeing it now. The reality, cold and sharp, pierced through the thin veneer of denial. Tears, hot and sudden, welled up and began to drip down her cheeks. She quickly wiped them away with the back of her hand, a frantic glance towards the

door. She couldn't be seen like this. Not in front of her hosts. She took a deep, shuddering breath, forcing herself to compose her features, to push the sting of regret and fear back down. She waited a few more minutes, sipping her coffee, willing herself to cheer up, to appear normal. Once she felt a semblance of control, she reached for her phone. Maybe Ella had just gone for an early walk. Maybe she was trying to cool off. Tanya dialed Ella's number, her thumb hovering over the call button. It rang once, twice, then a robotic voice cut in, your call cannot be completed at this time, please try again.

A knot tightened in Tanya's chest. She tried again, then a third time, each attempt met with the same cold message. Her fingers trembled as she switched to texting. She typed out a quick, desperate apology. Please talk to me. I'm so sorry. She hit send. Almost immediately, the message was returned.

And then she noticed it, the RCS part was gone. The fancy red receipts, that the message was gone. typing indicators, all gone. It just said, texting with Ella, like a generic, unlinked contact. More tears, a fresh flood, silently streamed down her face. Ella had blocked her. Or worse. Tanya took a few more minutes, forcing herself to finish her coffee, taking deep, calming breaths until her eyes were no longer red and puffy. Then, she walked out to meet everyone. Priscilla, Richard, and and Mary were already in the living room, their faces calm, almost detached.

We took the kids to their grandparents earlier this morning, Richard said, a casualness that felt unnerving. Priscilla smiled thinly. So, Tanya, what would you like to do today? Richard will be joining us. She paused, her eyes flitting towards the empty doorway of Tanya's shared room. And Ella? Mary, usually the gentlest of the three, spoke up, her voice flat. Ella made it quite clear, Tanya, that she wanted nothing to do with you at all. She's going to spend the rest of the Phoenix part of the trip with Josh and Alex. The words were a punch to the gut, confirming Tanya's worst fears. Her carefully constructed facade threatened to shatter. Oh, she managed, her voice barely a whisper. Will she be flying to Dallas with us?

Richard shook his head No, she decided to drive with them She's going to stay with Sharla Who's the other Alex's mother Tanya had to physically clench her jaw To hide the tremor in her chin There's so much rugby on sports extra from Sky They've asked me to read the whole lad at the same speed

She wasn't going to ruin it for herself, not entirely.

She still had three full days left in Phoenix before her flight to Dallas, a flight Ella was apparently no longer taking. I just. I want to ride the tram, Tanya said, feigning an enthusiasm she didn't feel. Go downtown. A collective nod. Richard clapped his hands together. Excellent. Let's get dressed and ready then.

The drive in Richard's Honda pilot was stiff. Richard drove, Priscilla sat in the front, and Mary sat beside Tanya in the back. The air crackled with unspoken tension. Tanya felt a deep, profound sadness inside, a hollow ache where her friendship with Ella used to be. But she plastered a polite smile on her face, listening vaguely to Mary's anecdotes, pretending to be engaged. She had to pretend. They got to the Price 101 freeway station and stepping on to the Valley Metro tram, something in the rhythmic sway and the passing scenery genuinely lightened Tanya's spirits, if only a fraction.

She found herself smiling, a real smile, for a moment. Meanwhile, Josh and Alex had picked Ella up bright and early. The moment she was in the car, leaving the strained atmosphere of Tanya's host's house behind, Ella let out a triumphant sigh. Finally, she declared, they blasted music, sang off key, and stopped for breakfast burritos. Ella made it abundantly clear to Josh and Alex that she no longer cared about Tanya, that the falling out was final and that she wanted nothing to do with her.

Josh and Alex, ever loyal, readily agreed. Don't worry, Ella, Josh assured her, we won't say anything to Tanya. And we'll lie our asses off if we have to. They had a blast. They hit Old Town Scottsdale, perused a few more malls, explored the ancient artifacts at the Herd Museum, and marveled at the interactive exhibits at the Science Museum. Every moment was a stark contrast to the quiet tension Tanya was enduring. Back on Valley Metro, Tanya and her companions passed by the airport.

Tanya spotted the sky train, a sleek, elevated shuttle, and a spark of curiosity ignited. Oh, can we ride that, she asked, pointing. Sure, Richard said, surprisingly amenable. They got off at the next stop and headed inside. The security guard they encountered was rather surly, peering at them over small, wire-rimmed glasses. Richard, instead of being polite, acted like an asshole, as he later put it, demanding entry with a brusque confidence that somehow worked. As they boarded the sky train, he winked at Tanya. Around here, you cannot be nice.

It won't get you anywhere. Tanya watched him, a new understanding dawning on her about local customs in Arizona. They rode the sky train all the way to the rental car center. Mary, sensing Tanya's renewed interest, offered, Do you want to see the airport itself? Yes. Tanya replied, the brief surge of excitement still present. They disembarked and wandered into Terminal 4, the vast space bustling with travelers.

But as Tanya watched people hurrying to their gates, a fresh wave of sadness washed over her. Flights Dallas. Ella. She pulled out her phone, almost on instinct, a flicker of a thought nagging at her. She quickly navigated to the JSX airline app, her fingers trembling slightly as she checked the flight details for Dallas. To her surprise, Ella had not cancelled her ticket.

It was still there, active. A tiny, fragile seed of hope began to sprout in Tanya's chest. Ella, Josh, and Alex, meanwhile, continued their joyous exploration. Ella practically sparkled, mentioning multiple times how much more fun she was having without Tanya. It's just so much freer, you know, she chirped. Alex chimed in, launching into a story about a person he used to be friends with, someone he now, hated, and how he and Josh had to be careful not to run into this person in Dallas.

After their unexpected airport detour, Tanya and the family she was staying with finally arrived downtown. The city hummed with a different energy, a new backdrop for Tanya's carefully guarded emotions. Across town, in the vibrant heart of downtown Chandler, Ella, Josh, and Alex pulled up to a bowling alley, laughing and having fun. To be continued.
