Tienes que seguir así, hermosa,” she grinned at herself in the mirror, the Spanish crooning affirmation as she slid into the driver’s seat. 122. Juana drove off, windows down, humming to the radio as the world outside blurred into streaks of summer sunshine. 123. At the nearby market, Juana parked, slid on her flip flops, and made her way to the automatic doors. 124. She grabbed a shopping cart, placed her hefty purse neatly inside, and shoved her sunglasses up to her forehead. 125. First, the produce aisle: Roma tomatoes, jalapeños, serrano peppers, white onions, cilantro, and limes tumbled into her cart. 126.

With a heaving push, she hauled her cart toward the checkouts, weaving past a toddler and a slow-moving abuela. 133. At the front, a cheerful young cashier greeted her and started scanning. 134. When Juana placed the beer on the conveyor, the cashier paused: “Can I see your ID, ma’am?” 135. Juana bristled. “¡QUE! I fifty-seven year old, you no need my ID—no necesito! Look, all this—” She spread her fingers, waggling her wedding ring. "I buy for my familia!" 136. The cashier grinned, shaking her head, waving Juana on. 137. Beaming, Juana paid, then loaded her groceries into bags and stacked them into her cart. 138. She tugged her sunglasses back down, swaying out into the heat. 139. She returned her cart, fanning herself with one hand in the sticky sun. 140. The sunglasses dropped low, Juana squinted at the car and grinned. 141. She set the bags into the backseat. 142. Sliding behind the wheel, she pulled a cold Corona from the case, imagining the first sip. 143. “Ooh, when I get home, I open uno Corona…mucho mejor than Modelo in summer,” she giggled to herself, tossing the keys in the cupholder. **Story continues:** 144. Juana cruised back through her neighborhood, humming rancheras with her radio. 145. As every tune cycled by, she remembered gossip from last week at the store—those ladies would love her spread she planned. 146. Pulling into the driveway, she yanked the keys and wobbled her armload of groceries up the walk. 147. Her flip flops made a rhythmic shush on the concrete. 148. She fumbled with her keys, bags in hand, but finally let herself in. 149. The house was warm, the scent of cinnamon and cumin lingering from last night’s dinner. 150. Juana set the bags on the counter, wiped her brow, and laughed—thinking how heavy even a short shopping run felt these days. 151. She cracked open the cold Corona, fizz erupting beneath her thumb. 152. With the first tangy gulp, she felt stress vanish from her shoulders. 153. Juana put away the groceries, humming, stacking cans in rows, hanging the tortillas neatly on a hook. 154. She flipped on the radio for a little company, the kitchen window sending streaks of sun across her tank top and shorts. 155. The short break, though, was interrupted by her phone. 156. Mateo’s voice came through, excited but anxious, “Mama, can you bring Uncle’s phone charger? He forgot it at home!” 157. “Ay, Mateo, you always forget. I get it, mijo—wait five minutes! Always los hombres, forgetting things!” she declared, shaking her curls. 158. She padded into Mateo’s room, found the charger and slipped on her purse again. 159. Before heading out, Juana checked herself in the hallway mirror, smoothing her bun and tugging her tank top’s hem. 160. “Juana, siempre olvidando cosas—hurry up, mujer!” she called at her reflection, scolding herself in her accent. 161. She pulled her sunglasses once more to her forehead, locked up the house, and headed to the car, grabbing the charger on the way. 162. With a practiced motion, she slid into the front seat, draped the sunglasses instantly over her eyes, and started the engine. 163. As Juana drove, the outside world whirled by, but something deep in her heart stirred uncertainly. 164. A tiny fragment—no more than a shadow—of a memory flashed across her mind: the feel of small, smooth hands, a child’s laughter, a name at the edge of hearing—Caleb. 165. But in the next second, the thought was gone, lost in the warm hum of Spanish music and the grown-up worries awaiting her at home. 166. Juana set her jaw, chin up, vowed to enjoy the rest of this sunny afternoon. 167. After all, life was full—she had her son, her family, her laughter, and herself. 168. The days ahead were for her, and for Mateo. 169. And so Juana drove on, never knowing she’d ever been anyone other than herself. 170. In the mirror’s reflection, only Juana Ruiz smiled back—flushed of cheek, curls piled up, ready for whatever came next. 171. The summer sun gleamed off her rhinestone flip flops as she giggled softly, the memories of her son and her world all she could ever recall. 172. Somewhere, that brief unimaginable moment faded to nothing more than a story that could never be told again. 173. But for Juana, it was simply a beautiful, busy, ordinary day. 174. And home was ready and waiting for her and her son. 175. With a final sip of Corona, Juana sang along with the music, her red nails drumming time against the steering wheel, while the world glimmered, full of small, bright wonders. 176. The end.
