smiled, remembering the first time he’d seen the olive-skinned young man.
Leopoldo Maria Santos. The hotheaded Latin that blew into his life with the
force of the hurricanes that hit Leo’s homeland. He had strutted into Sky’s
dorm room three days before classes started, freshman year.
“Hi.”
Skyler’d waved from his perch on the bed. He’d been dressed in shorts and a
tank top, trying to stay cool in the muggy early September day in Philadelphia.
“You a nursing student, too?”
“Yo? Hell no. Not that I have anything
against nurses, but aren’t they usually women? Teacher. That’s what I want to
do.” Hmmm, clearly not from around there, not with that accent.
“Nah,
men are nurses, too. Maybe it’s not as common, but I’m hoping that’s in my
favor. Where you from, cool accent?”
