Snippet

IT WAS THE FLOWER GARDEN THAT DID MARIA IN. Hubbard agreed
to till up his mother’s old flower garden that had gone to seed for a
new garden. Maria, through Emily’s translation, had requested a
fun summertime activity.
Emily was a born salesperson. “It will teach me responsibility if I
water it every day. I need that bad.”
The flower garden was followed by an irrigation request for the
home’s vegetable garden.
Neither of the planting activities was unusual for a farm. That’s
not what drove Hubbard to act. What troubled Hubbard was that
Emily now referred to them as Maria’s flower garden and Maria’s
vegetables.
There was no time to waste. From his tractor, Hubbard called
Mr. Carlos and told him that Maria wasn’t working out. After his obligation
at the Tomato Festival, they had to find new work for her. Mr. Carlos
didn’t understand the connection between Maria and the annual
event, but he reluctantly agreed to look for a new opportunity for
the girl.
Hubbard feared he would eventually screw up with her. She
was always within arm’s reach and he was too damned attracted to
her. Sometimes the pain of his growing desire made him feel like he was
burning alive. It made him want to drink to deal with it. That’s why

she had to go.
