Rosa sends Lucy to the airport with a heavy heart.
They don't talk on the way, silently watching the roads outside. The early morning is tranquil, unlike the jumbled thoughts in Rosa's head. Although it pains her to let Lucy go, she knows it's for the best.
Lucy needs this: a change of pace, a change of scenery—all in hopes that it fills the void inside her. Maybe it will make the bags under her eyes disappear. Maybe she'll stand straight and tall again. Maybe she'll be able to sleep properly at night. Who knows? But Rosa is willing to let go as long as Lucy stops suffering.
