Day of the Dead―A Romance
"I'll see you in a few days. I won't say good-bye, then, but hasta luego." Until later. A later that never came. After visiting his sick mother in Mexico, Arturo didn't return to San Francisco. With an expired tourist visa and a lover and business to get back to, he risked reentering the US illegally but never made it across the border.
Haunted by constant thoughts of Arturo, Joe has to carry on in his absence and the lingering despair of loss as he relives their past. His responsibilities to both their restaurant and to Chava, a troubled, hot-tempered young man they'd taken in, demand Joe pull himself together.
But Chava's past is never far behind. Caught in the middle, Joe must make a choice. In the aftermath, he decides to visit Arturo's parents. It's a desperate bid for peace, but Joe isn't sure revisiting his memories will be enough to help him move on, even when later finally arrives on the Day of the Dead.
