As soon as you let go — the person instantly comes back. As if they feel it: they are no longer a resident of your heart. I had just decided that he was my past. A mistake. Pain. A lesson.

"So — a single mother," Tarnavskyi says, looking at her with open mockery, with unmistakable condescension. "I don't recall you mentioning that particular detail."

She wants to run to the ends of the earth from a man who sees a woman with a child as damaged goods. And at the same time, to beg him to give her a chance — because she needs this job like she needs air. "And on top of that, an incompetent doctor. Give me one reason why I should keep you in my department. This is not a charity."

"You said you'd lost your job, had no roof over your head, and Child Protective Services took your kid…" "I'll manage." Her snub nose tilts higher, pure defiance. "Don't make me laugh. You know exactly how the game is played. I can make the whole mess go away — a roof, money, a job." "And what's the catch?" "You are." "So you want me as your kept woman?" "Call it what you like. I prefer something more diplomatic: a mutually beneficial arrangement." "You won't even pretend otherwise?" "I deal in straight talk and honesty." "Then here's mine: no."

I walk down the hallway and stop dead at the door to the children's room. The girls are sitting on the floor, examining the toys I brought for little Hannusia. "Kostik says every child has a dad," the older one says, her tone businesslike as she stacks the blocks. "He's just lost for some of us. When my dad is found, he'll bring me pretty toys like these too. And I promise I'll share them with you. You share with me." The younger girl swats at the tower and the blocks scatter everywhere. "I wish he'd show up already," she sighs. "Otherwise I'll grow up before I even get to play with them." I turn back to Olena. "How old is Olya?" "Six — she starts school this year." I should ask the obvious question, but it feels like there's sand in my throat. No words will come out.
