Who the hell understands women? If any man does, will he please raise his hand?
All he had done was innocently do what he had always done, and she turned around and got pissed off!

Granted the tip he slipped in her pocket was ten times what he usually tipped, yet Larry was perplexed as to why he found an envelope addressed to him under his room door with the $200 he had tipped Lupita. That is all, not a word, and she had avoided seeing him for the last week, sending another employee instead to his room.
He bribed one of the hotel workers to get her address and telephone number, and the time she would be leaving from work which he had stupidly forgotten to ask her.

It was not as if they had established a lengthy verbal rapport. They had focused solely on the expression of their corporal language, which had been eloquent and prodigious. The chemistry and instant attraction they felt, had surprised them both for it was unexpected. It was worth the trouble of finding out what made her react so cold now.
His smile when he spotted her coming down the block slowly evaporated when he saw the tangible fury in her onyx eyes.

If only looks could kill…
Her heavily accented English was practically incomprehensible when she went into a tirade about not being for sale…at least that is what he could make out of it. He tried to apologize by saying, he did not mean to offend her, and that he was very sorry.

- “Yo muy, muy sorry - ok? Yo muy stupid (pointing at himself). I didn’t know…Yo no saber?”
He tried to make her see he did not mean to offend her. When it was obvious smoke was still coming out of her ears. He tried his corporal communication technique, and kissed her. This tactic eventually did melt her defenses, as she succumbed to the all too sweet and wickedly delicious kiss.
Make up sex is even better, and it only improved during the following weeks for the intense passion they shared, was tempered by a genuine tenderness as well.
The ebbing sun was setting, leaving a canvas of multiple colored sky, with hues of pink, lavender, and amber. Lupita urged him to make a wish quickly, before the sun entirely disappeared on the horizon.

Larry did just that as they were floating naked in the ocean embraced and playful as dolphins, this seemed more real somehow and touching. Larry felt a moment of deep contentment as he looked at the setting sun. The buoyancy of the warm water brought them ever closer together in their tender embrace.

He wished this moment would last forever.
The following day which was Sunday as well as Lupita’s day off, Larry had agreed to spend the day with her in the plaza, where most of the locals spent their Sundays' promenading, and dining out.

When the bells of the massive church announced the beginning of the next mass, Lupita enthusiastically asked Larry to go with her to church. He explained he was not a church going person, and she said it was ok, that he only had to sit in the back row for a little while, while she prayed a little bit.
Larry thought of it as a sightseeing tour of the beautiful and intricately constructed cathedral. He humored Lupita by going in with her and exploring the inside of this cavernous church as she knelt before the statue of the Virgin Mary.
Larry approach a giant crucifix with the ceramic image of Jesus Christ nailed to the cross. This image simulating a bloody Jesus, scarred by multiple lashes, and to top it off for effect, wearing a full crown of thorns interred into his scalp, which caused trails of blood to drench his face. Last but not least, massive nails securing the image to the cross. This image sported a pained expression molded as if to show the suffering of the world, carried on his shoulders.
Larry thought this was spooky, yet he was transfixed by the image somehow. After a observing this crucifix for a while, Larry had a revelation.
This was the image of a man - a man of flesh and blood - who had known beforehand of the terrible sacrifice and pain he would endure. He could have easily changed the outcome by escaping, or even performing more miracles to change the people’s perception of him, and diffuse their fury.
Larry was a man who knew he was dying soon too. He should not be afraid, yet he was - he was only human. Yet again, he was sort of glad that he knew. He was glad that he had found love, and that he had wrenched some happiness out of his stale existence to live the last chapter to the fullest.
