Chantico awoke with a start in the middle of the night. Being a light sleeper, it wasn’t unusual to wake up at the sound of her sister or parents getting up to pee or just their snoring. But this was different. She heard something outside the house, creeping closer. Then a sound at the front door! Someone was trying to break in! She sank under her covers, her body frozen in fear but her thoughts racing.



The tension between Artie and Coatlicue did not completely go away, but at the moment it was overshadowed by the pure joy of becoming new parents. They were both willing to put aside their own difficulties to ensure they could give the best lives possible to Metzli and Chantico. Of course, this included some changes to their baby preparations. Now they needed another crib, twice the amount of diapers, and twice the energy, love, and attention.
