We argued on the phone.

It’s hard for me as well, Jonás. Believe me. I never met her. I’m trying to support you from here. Through you, through your dad and Marina, I love her too. Believe me. If I could do something I would. Believe me.

I’m going to try something. Let’s see if this notebook works. Ana? Ana, can you hear me?

Ana. Ana, dear Ana. I love your son. I would have liked to meet you, to call you on the phone, to chat. Really? Me too. Of course, I would have brought you a book. Yes, absolutely, we’d be in the kitchen. Jonás tells me it’s the place you like best. I like being there too, it’s beautiful when the afternoon light comes streaming in through the big windows. We had lunch in there last Sunday. Yes, Rosario has it all under control. There are often containers of food in the fridge from the day before. I’ve learnt some of your recipes from Rosario. By the way, the Catalan crème brûlée we had last Sunday was delicious, how do I make it? Thanks, I’ll have a look in the drawer. The house is tidy. Marina’s really well. Relaxed and well. Yes, all good with him. Jonás – Jonás? Honestly, I don’t know. I think he’s afraid of being abandoned. But how can I explain that you didn’t abandon him? How can I explain that I’m not about to leave him, that I don’t want to leave him?

Do you think I could go anywhere?

Where?

Am I getting closer or am I getting further away?

Do these stairs go up or down?
